Guess I need to learn the rules… 1/20/2005

I am glad to finally learn about the first rule of Ukraine. It makes me wonder what the second and third rules might be.

Thanks to Orange Ukraine for setting me straight. Keep it coming.

Actually, I should have learned that rule already. I commented about it in my most recent Droogmail.

On the day after Round 2 and on the train back to Kyiv, both Lesya and I were in very low spirits. We’d heard about the fraud, and how Yanukovych had won, but not about the protests.

I just thought Ukrainians were going to accept the situation. I tried to think what good might be accomplished even under a Yanukovych presidency. I was failing. It had taken me all my years of Peace Corps plus a year of work before I sank down to that level of cynicism, but even my optimism went bust.

There have been very few times in my life I’ve been so happy I was wrong. :)

Thanks for the link.

This is something they need to tell you when you get the “So you want to adopt a baby from the Ukraine” packet. On a bright yellow sheet of paper. Maybe we should be guessing how old LT will be when you get him rather than when you get him! What patience you guys have!
