Jas,
Since I didn't contribute to the cache, let me pay for the shipping. I was out of 'RESET' buttons.

Гитарист Гриша Nice, dobro! I speak Russian too, and appreciate what you went through to produce all those HTML characters!!! Neat little workaround!
By the way, welcome, Natalya...bet you didn't expect THAT when you signed up, eh?!?!? I'm a newbie too...just not quite so new! |

Things like that are more expensive and harder to come by in Moscow, I'm told. |

I'm thrilled that lucky 7K signed up on Friday 13 from Russia, and brings some feminine charm to testosterone territory. |

Nat sent me a mailing address, and Google confirms it's a real street in Moscow. I know it sounds incredible that on Friday the 13th, member 7K would be a female from Russia, but if it's not legit, it's a good prank. |

Captain, the DVD has been shipped this morning so you should get it before the end of the week.
Sorry for the delay but I was waiting for the second edition (of 100 pieces).

Many years ago my Mom sent her mother, who lived in Latvia, a home made dress as a surprise birthday gift. Her mother asked her to please not send anything else. That dress cost her mother two weeks in wages for import duty! |

Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | Unless Nat has a home laptop (rare, as internet connection is very expensive there) she has to go to a public internet kiosk...depending on where she lives, it can be a long ride on the trolly bus...also, it is possible (probable) that Nat had to pay a tax on the package...the larger the package, the greater the tax...
SWMBO is Russian...we met there in '96...believe me folks, it's not Kansas... |
