Obviously some of the kids on our street got drunk and decide to open up their own real estate company.

Boys will be boys.

I worry for a time where that can get you in trouble as opposed to a stern talking to.

Yes ? really this year we had 5 times x 5 free days ? the last vacancy is only for people working in the education system ? no money in this system, but a lot of free time

... so ? I intend ? well ? we will see ?

My father, who is now a retired university professor, alway told me to follow in his footsteps. Looking back, I know he was right

He was always there for us, and seemed to have a lot of free time to do things with his family.

Borislav, how is the weather in BG now? We will be below the freezing point over here tonight.

And you should have entered the pigs head picture in the picture of the month contest!

This is very true. Ask an American who he is and we start telling you about our job. Our work defines us rather than defining ourselves as people. We may as we wear badges that say "I am not an animal. I am a robot".

Yes … children usually follow different road in their live. Maya had a possibility to stay in her University as a professor assistant, after they suggested her to continue a post-graduation work, but she ignored both opportunities … I think she missed a great chance, over more I am able to help her in all that … Never mind, everyone must follow the own road.
Here we have so called “Golden fall” after very cool wave, now we will have 2-3 weeks of stabilized weather … mornings temperatures are 0 – 2 deg C, afternoons – even 13-16 … I it perfect for bicycling, but today I will miss it …
What about the “month content” … I am not sure … this photo is not from BG - it was taken by Maya this spring when she was in Paris … it is not my “intellectual property” …

Well … now I will have an excursion 2-3 days and I intend to bring photos of the Golden Fall …

Yes Patrick, I know … I have a friend living and working in USA already many years … unfortunately in the beginning of ’90 situation in BG was terrible and he decided to emigrate …

This is very true. Most of the time, especially in mixed company it's the direction the conversation takes.

Well guys ? I will not speak about my work which I hate too much over more ? Today here was beautiful day and I decided to do 4 hour walk in the mountain near the town ? I did not walk since middle of September and now my legs hurt ? it imposes to do a therapy now ? fried liver mixed with eggs and a bottle of perfect red wine ? usually I avoid wine ? it needs more food, but this evening why not ?
