Hello all-
Well Trent Loos invited me to be on his radio program Rural Route Radio. So if you are interested in listening to me go to www.ruralrouteradio.com and I am on Tuesday, July 1. It is so weird to hear yourself on the radio, and I noticed how many times I say "so" and "um"! Ah need to work on that.
Some US beef was officially sold in small retail stores today. It was discounted 30% off and they sold out in just a few hours. So the good news is: there seems to be a demand for US beef. The bad news: the religious organizations have become involved in the protests. The Catholic, Buddhist, and Protestant religious leaders are now spearheading the rallies, and are trying to get them back to a peaceful level. While the intensity of the rallies has calmed back down, there are speculations that through the religious affiliation the Korean people will come back out in masses to attend the rallies since they are back to a peaceful level.
The leaders of the civic groups that were heading up the violent protests have been arrested or will be arrested. Their homes and offices have also been searched and material that can prove they had intentions to turn the protests violent was confiscated to be used as evidence at later times. The restaurant and business owners are pushing for compensation of business lost since the protests have begun. Either due to blockage of their establishment or due to fact that no one wanted to face mob to get to that area. And finally, the mothers, wives, and girlfriends of the men who are on the police crews have pleaded with the people rallying to stop the violence. They are worried about the safety of their loved ones. So there are lots of new developments in the rally department.
Tomorrow night my co-workers and I are going to dinner. At a seafood buffet - YUM. And then out for drinks. One of the alcohols that Korea is known for is Soju (which is compared to vodka). Korea is also known for their beer and they are known to be whiskey drinkers. We also have the 4th off, so I am going to take advantage of the fact that most people will be working and get some popular sights seen.
Till then - cheers.

You know that I will check you out, going to listen right now!! What happened to all of the years of public speaking??
Can't wait to listen to the interview! Don't get too toasty tonight! But sea food and beer sounds like good combo!
Enjoy.
Love you!
I don't think that I would have admitted your drinking problem, but you didn't sound half bad. Didn't pick up too many ums and wells. Job well done.
How was your evening out? I thot the interview went well. It was a real good connection. A couple of funnies. So, your're a resident of Yerington, maybe they're hoping. Sounds like it.Touring around sounds like fun. Is it humid like OK was? It took me 4 times listening to the interview to hear the complete program. I had to many interuptions. We had a good time in Bridgeport for the 4th. Fun at Rhinos and great fireworks. Take Care. LOVE YA, MOM
That is SUPER SUPER cool! I love Trent Loos! Congrats :)
I have three and a half weeks left--it is really strange. I am greatly looking forward to mexican food and cupcakes, although not together.
