You know what is really funny? The fact that Greeks themselves aren't aware of the stereotype.

I have about 5-6 greek friends...all guys..31-37...all from Cypress...came to the u.s. to study and never left...which though has its own elections and such, is still greek.

So, they are all telling me about the "fun times" serving in the army...when i break the old, "how do you separate the men from the boys in the greek army joke"....to which all of them expressed befuddlement about man boy love/man and man love.

I guess familiarity breeds...invisibility. As the great Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges once observed, there are no camels in the Koran.

High tourist season...well almost. Hot yet?

Can it be any hotter than it is here?

Here? Oh....thats right..you are "back east". Here it's still chilly but I hear it's been just a little warm back in Dogfish country.

Good thing the beer is refrigerated, but be careful, it was a nasty power outage last week.

IM BACKKK!!! It was gorgeous... Perfect weather and it was amazing to see a different culture...

I went to Sparti (in Sparta) for a couple of days, I have family there, then I made my way up to Athens and stayed in the outskirts of it (Glyfada)... I went into Athens most days when I was near and the place was amazing during the eurocup (when Greece was on)... I wish America had some sort of national sports pride, but obviously we don't...

To put it into perspective it was like everyone on the streets, and in the country was rooting for the team you love (for ex : the Green Bay Packers for me)... Unfortunately Greece lost the first match so everyone was pissed off, but still an amazing experience...

I will get pictures up... AND for all of you young single guys (i'm only 19), the European girls are amazingly good looking... I think ill go back there to find my future wife
