“blind.”

—No, that would have been the Greeks I was staying with.

“Most retirees living in Greece (or Poland or Mexico etc.) put in their time in US factories and businesses in the US. You must have been staying with the exception certainly not the rule.”

—I did say it was the exception, not the rule

“The gyro story is a hoot! You couldn’t find a friggin gyro in all of Athens???”

—You could, but the Greeks would fill it with horsemeat or whatever else they could to increase profit. The market near Olympus (the Athens Market) had several venders selling cooked meat. But it was thought you were a fool to buy anything from them. The only thing close to a Gyros you could get, was sliced Lamb, and that to me is a kabob, not a Gyro as I had become accustomed to in America.

Sorry to offend your Grecian values. If you are Greek or have lived there long enough as you say, you either know it to be true, or you are so hurt that someone dared say anything against your populace (Greeks can be very proud), that you wish to ignore it.

I stand by my words, and any Turk will back it up. Go light a car on fire and let out some aggression will ya?

In fact you are a liar. You are perpetrating myths and stereotypes here on this forum. You may have visited Greece but had some rejection and are using this forum to get your jollies by making weird unsubstantiated remarks.

You are sad and pathetic. Malaka.
