i tried to upload pictures of ruben and i in 'nam, but it is not loading, so, alas, you will have to wait to see pictures of me and the dutchman until i arrive back in canada and get ot a real computer, i have about a thousand from india, nepal, thailand, laos, vietnam and soon to be cambodia. pretty good considering i do not have a camera in use right now... thank god for modern technology, like my new 1 GB thumb drive that I got for like nothing. woohoo, thank you south east asia!!
