[AAABEST]

Well darn, there go my Memorial Day plans! I’ll have to pay $75 to get the tickets changed and go somewhere safer like, oh, Peshawar or Islamabad. Some place fun for the kids...

LOL.

What about Liberia? I hear the locals put on a GREAT show.

My first reaction was to laugh at the flotation vest until I thought a bit and realized the magical thinking behind it. He heard or saw flak vests used for protection and never stopped to think of why they offered some protection, only "vest" lodged as the operative concept in his brain.

Then again it might just be a style statement something to go with the Michael Jackson moon walk.

OK, so I'm still laughing.

Liberia? Are you sure? I mistook it for Detroit.
