    I was in Jeddah. We tried to get as close to Mecca add possible at outsiders. There is interesting history in that area, but still there just wasn't much to actually see and do there. The city is completely being torn down and rebuilt with new buildings. Egypt is the most aggressive place I've...

    World travel

    I haven't been to the Barcelona one, but I have been to the Tokyo one. Japan is a great place to visit. Great food and plenty to do. The Mozambique fish market has been the best one I've been to. Dirt cheap lobsters and great cooks.

    World travel

    I was able to travel inside Ethiopia for the first time. I took a trip to Harar it was pretty cool place. It's supposed to be the birthplace of coffee and khat. It's a old Muslim city and very pretty. Probably the most cool thing and they well known for is the feeding of wild hyenas. It has a...

    World travel

    I have a friend visiting and he really wanted to scuba dive in the red sea and I refuse to ever go back to Egypt. So it came down to Saudi or Djibouti. We chose Saudi. It was a pretty boring place to visit actually. It's the driest place (alcohol) I have ever been. But beyond that it was just a...

    I'm hoping to spend a lot more time there regularly when I move to Cambodia and flights are dirt cheap and short. Looks like an amazing trip!

    Dallas tried to trade for Ant first? Would that have helped or hurt our picks?

    The Lauri Thread

    I just had some of Lauri's highschool classmates at my house last night. I asked what he was like, they said tall, very tall. On a side note for the Finnish friends here a band came that you might know Roope Salminen & Koirat. Anyone know them?

    Is next season as a tank pretty much off the table?

    A major upgrade this deadline would ruin the tank that they have been working on all season. If they are going to improve the roster that will happen in the off season. Obviously the tank has been going well enough they didnt feel the need to downgrade the roster more. But it would have been...

    Apparently Danny Ange didn’t know he was helping the Lakers get Luka Dončić

    Maybe ultimately. But the deal 100% was happening with or without the Jazz. It's not like JHS getting dumped to a team was going to hold it up.

    Trump Dictatorship and All Things Politics

    Just imagine if it was a democratic president and Bill Gates doing the exact same things as Trump and Musk.

    Dallas trading Luka to the Lakers for Anthony Davis! Utah involved.

    I don't see any way this isn't stupid from Dallas. Take a couple days and shop him. At the very least you get more from Lakers if AD is your target. So many teams would have thrown everything for him.

    I thought it was a little expensive plus I don't like you have to drive everywhere, but other than that it seems nice!

    World travel

    Work trips can be rough, especially that far of travel. Though usually we turn most work trips to a vacation at the end of it as well. I'm early 40s as well. We do have an option to live in DC and then she would travel to the countries for work regularly, but that's rough to me. I would rather...

    We don't have kids and like traveling so it's pretty easy for us and I can work remotely. It's a good job and good benefits but living in developing countries has it's downside and some really struggle with that. She works in transportation. We are considering retiring after one or two more...

    I like it and have to live in developing countries. It's a huge upgrade from Ethiopia for me.

    World travel

    I just finished 6 weeks vacation. It was fun but I'm exhausted. I went from Ethiopia to Korea to Hawaii to Japan to China to Ethiopia. Now I'm home today and moving to Cambodia in 5 months. Time to pack up and sell things from my house and travel to Cambodia to find a house. I'll probably rent...
