Wow, cooool!

Now THAT could come in VERY handy the next time I'm in Greece and those lousy friggin' Persians try and get past me at Thermopylae!!!

(RIGHT Thanassis, if you're out there somewhere?!...btw, have a GREAT time at the Euro Rally, ol' buddy!!!)




Well, since you were out here ... you dislike the pseudo-Macedonian country north of Greece ... and you want to defend us from the Persians ...
You are a true friend, Sir. What more could I ask for?




Ooooh yeah, I remember that stop last year in the [pseudo]Macedonian capitol city of Skopje alright, ol' buddy!

And to tell ya the TRUTH, from the looks of the place I thought the Persians might've SACKED IT just a couple o' YEARS ago!!!

(remember what I said about it remindin' me of "Beautiful Downtown" TIJUANA MEXICO???)

That visit to Alexander the Great's birthplace Pella and the visit (and lunch) to the "home of the Gods" near Mount Olympus afterwards sure must have helped.




Yep, gotta say both o' those places, among MANY other beautiful locales in that wonderful country o' yours, were VERY impressive, and could EASILY make almost anyone wanna put on that helmet pictured above and defend it against any and ALL potential invaders!!!


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
