    Not sure if many of you are aware of this, but in Argentina and Colombia there is something called the "kidnap express" that is becoming somewhat of a problem.

    Basically, terrorists choose random victims and kidnap them from their cars. Then, they demand a ransom of say 1000 dollars, and if you can't pay in about 2 hours, they kill the hostage.

    It's a real shame too, because Colombia is such a beautiful country.

    I know you all found this so interesting since we have many people on this board that commute between the US and Colombia/Argentina so frequently [​IMG]

    Mmmmmm, Argentinan steak is well worth the risk though [​IMG]

    Ah Borneo. You DO NOT want to go wandering into the woods in Borneo.

    Ya znat' nemnogo russkij

    It probably doesn't make much sense since I'm not all that familiar with the language. I only know a couple words that my grandmother taught me and I try to make them into sentences, but more times than not, I fail miserably as you can see [​IMG]

    Is it Rachmaninov or Rachmaninoff?
