I took your advice and checked past postings. As I have mentioned only recently, I did recall that you had written to this forum sometime back.
I found an interesting post you wrote on 2/29/2004 which was actqully in response to me. You wrote:
"Jet I am as serious as the next guy about finding a russian lady,and I have travelled quite a few times too.
AFA do not have the best reputation by a long shot (my opinion),as for Anastasia,have you never heard of the horror stories connected with that company?
European Connections I can't comment about,but just doing a simple comparison with any of the tour companies prices reveals a very substantial price hike on the norm."
SO....in less than eight months you not only found a Ukrinian woman - but you married her and have brought her back with you, and now regularly visit her family make "excusion" (your spelling) into the Caucasus.
All that in under eight months and you have no information to share?
regarding the fact that you're married obviously obliviates the use of rubber hence no stench ergo wrong nick-explanation. Sheet, and I thought it was close.
But your half is from Ukraine, and some exposure to the Caucasus (are you Rambo?) surely is something you could write a bit about? Unlike Wtrav's you should at least mention how you met I think, like he did (in earlier posts).
I promise I'll read it, Gladiator too (because he now owes me money ;)
On 3/3/04 Dragster still apparently hadn't met her yet when he posted:
"When I find her I guess she will be worth every penny I possess..........and I don't disapprove of anyone's acheivement's in life either."
But since then he has met her, became engaged, brought her over, married her, and now he is already making regular visits see her family in Ukraine and the Caucasus. All in a bit over 7 months. Must have been (and continues to be) a whirlwind for you Dragster.
To hell with explaining your moniker Dragster - tell us all about it. All the details.
and as much as I would love to see this continuation of this er.....lively exchange I must pass and defer to my wife who is now telling me to get a move on (flight to catch in about 3 hours).
Off to see the mother in law for a couple of weeks (Kharkov bound) before Christmas,have fun guys.....don't kill each other LOL
Right......just time to give the Lambo a last thrashing!!!!!!
Thanks for the concern Glad. ID make detect what he detects. Me - I look for and identify phoneys. And I have one here. Never had a problem with blood pressure - I'm a very calm guy.
have a nice trip over, and don't skid my.. umm, your Lambo over curbs pls. I suppose you're going to practise your language-skills also, so have fun. I'm sure she will relish this visit and will show you off, so comb yer hair regularly will ya?
So close to the silly season you might want to tell (when you get back) why you go now instead of over the year-end, when the serious parties are over there (I know I would have gone then). Enjoy!
Paul Robert Oscar...
an interesting find you made by digging, and maybe you dug into dirt but let's see. If both posts are true and were made by same poster I'm rrrrreally curious to read more here, and likely Drag could be termed a Jet-setter then.
However, whatever the outcome I stand by zest, spice & humour - c'mon Jet, you prefer to read Van's (he of numerous names) posts instead? I prefer them interesting, and undeniably Drag's are.
Proof's in the pudding, see how he keeps you busy :))))
If you live near ski-resorts, like the speed-element and love the leaning of bikes you are sure to become addicted to skiing. Living there I'd be a junkie during wintertime, so at least you could go for some lessons to find out if it's something for you?
If I sum you up reasonably correct it will, and then a winter-visit East could take on a whole new meaning I assure you - especially when you progress with the language course. Work hard (daytime) and Play hard (nighttime), the best holiday there is.
And in Romania quite affordable also...
I have little patience for scammers and phoneys - whether they be Russian women or fellow forum members.
We're supposed to be on the lookout for women who scam or claim to be something that they are not. They have reason (economic gain) to try and scam.
But a fellow forum member? There is no reason that we should have to lie to each other. After all we supposed are all in this together and have a common goal. That's the entire point of us being here.
About this prankster you all are talking about, I've been saying to myself a long time that this dude and chipsher have alot of similarities. Could they be the same, lol? But then reality sets in and I say who really cares. =P
It is funny how chipscher just disappeared one day after posting ludicous one liners on every thread - never to be heard from again. And this dude seems to do the same thing and write the same way.
Now maybe I shouldn't have let the guy get my goat as he did - but he smelled fishy from the start.
And if he is going to challenge me to check the past posts about what he has written (as he did) - I will.
He can write you guys all the "humorous" bizzare stuff you can stomach. If you don't mind him - more power to you.
For me - he's lost all credibility and I'll most likely ignore him.
Life goes on.
Write whatever you want Dragster. The forum doesn't mind.
'On this subject, did you know that ZIMBABWE is not a name but an abbreviation? Zero Intelligence Maintained Because All Brainy Whites Emigrated, of which Robert Mugabe is a shining example.
So I'm curious as to all your names.... :)) '
would be an appropriate comment here!
(several people make multiple appearances)

quote:
"In 1719 the Norwegian-Danish admiral Tordenskjold (from Trondheim in Norway) conquered this strong fortress. And he did it by trickery. He surrounded the island with his fleet, which wasn't that strong. After giving the fortress a few rounds of canonballs he landed Marstrand with 200 soldiers. All alone Tordenskjold knocked on the fortress door and demanded to speak with the commendant. He claimed that he had 2000 Danish soldiers in the town - ready to take the fortress by force. But he would give the Swedes a chance to leave the fortress unhurt instead of die in a hard fight. The Swedish commander would of cource get to see the Danish soldiers before he made his decision. That was just what Tordenskjold had in mind. He had already lined up his soldiers around a house. When the Swedish commander walked along the line of soldiers and rounded the corner, the first Danish soldiers ran around the opposit corner and lined up there. This went on - block after block - untill the Swedish commander saw that he and his men on the fortress was outnumbered. Without any fight the Swedes left Carlsten fortress, and Tordenskjold and his 200 men could march in and conquer it - with canons and weapons intact. Carlsten was in 1720 once more returned two Sweden by means of negotiations...."
.....................
-it is also generally told that Tordenskjold made sure that the Swedish officer had plenty to drink before the inspection.
Zambia was Northern Rhodesia before Kenneth Kaunda took over and ruined it. Chiluba pulled it sort-of level in his two terms but 'up' is still a looong way to go.
Zimbabwe was Rhodesia, and the latter florished under Ian Smith until "Independance Day' made it a slave under (now) Robert Mugabe. This arrogant racist dictator deserves a subsonic-velocity full metal jacket .22 planted in his skull where it will whirl wreaked havoc.
Indians were not forcefully ejected, they left for the better economy South - and florished there being born traders.
Just in case, for the uninitiated - your nick is would-be Indonesian using their server also, this being lightyears away from Indians culturally, economically, historically, foodwise, spicewise, language-wise and geographically, however by making that comment you pretend it affects you - which displays your lack of knowledge, proves your identity wrong hence makes you a wanker.
Have you ever done some homework Van?
Thunder - I don't know if this guy is the recurring troll (Van as you refer to him) but we are getting a lot of undue attention from very far off characters (Dragster not included - as I am convinced that he was just chipscher).
This characters level of sophistication though seems far beyond the sophomoric Chinese guy - it is difficult to beleive that they are the same guy.
If either or both ARE this Van character however - he seems to be a character with an unduly high opinion of himself and a guy who doesn't get out a lot (and most likey has at least one diagnosed Pshychological illness) - that he can mascarade of a Swedish feminist, and this Indian character abovea and so many other disjointed characters.
We used to get guys wandering in all the time just asking how to start in pursuit of a Russian bride. That was fine. Now we get people (maybe the same person?) making bizarre and psyco social comments on things having to do with ANYTHING except findign a Russian bride.
