Woah! I think that's it. Overwhelming Hey! I don't remember being so spoiled for my birthday! I guess it pays to get old.
Well at work we have accreditation on thursday and everyone is freaking out as we have countless numbers of files to update. I guess some folks are starting to crack from the stress, including the big boss who apparently became unglued at someone today. Luckily I was out at the time. I have low tolerance for that kind of behavior. Especially when the folks doing it do not believe they should appologize for their outbursts. Anyway I hope nothing nasty comes of it as the person who received the invectivation is not someone who I picture tolerating it quietly. I will let you know I anything develops from it.

Wow, that is quite the list of presents. It was great fun to watch you open them all.
Tintin, My wife loves Tintin.
I love tintin too! I grew up reading these books and it made me curious about the world, influenced my desire to travel, and to learn about other cultures. Yeah Tintin. Of course the two first books were banned for several decades as they were immensely discriminatory. Tintin in the Congo, published in 1930, (I have a reprint version) portrayed the native population of the country as very ingnorant, and the original. Tintin in the land of the Soviet, published in 1936, was very critical of the communist world, and made many statements that the communist movement was deceiving the people. America's current prez would love to use it to influence young minds, I'm sure.
