1) Grab crowbar 2) Jab under some sort of looser area 3) Push up hard until you can get under the doorhandle/mechanism. 4) Relocate crowbar to better fulcrum location near the doorhandle push until the door comes loose 5) Reassembly does not follow reverse of disassembly, for that your on your own

From your description it sounds like it would have been worth $14 just to hang out with the assistant for an hour.

I am sure that attitude has cleared down a bit. Here is an idea of the turmoil while I was there. I leave the US: exchange rate 6 rubles to the dollar. spent a little time in Sweden/Finland on the way over first day in USSR: 35 rubles to the dollar 2 days later: 180 rubles to the dollar I was in Leningrad when it changed back to St. Petersburg and when they declared free market to be okay. One day in the city square there was a park, the next there were kiosks everywhere selling mostly American goods (levi's, marlboro's etc) all at much, much cheaper prices than here. When your economy goes to chit that fast and your society is a bit loose (most high school girls in russia have a boyfriend and typically a lover that is much older and married) it makes it fun for a single guy, especially when most of the women really think they want to go to the US more than anywhere else in teh world.

Oil changes would be good. The bimmer stealer charges $180 a pop. And of course I don't have them do mine, but funny fact anyway. For me $8 for an internet filter and 5 quarts of Mobil 1 ~$33 or so.

It used to be real good, right now it is perhaps a bit weak since I have not had the opportunity to use it in years.

Allright, Sean story #1: Roughly translate the Russian prophecy states that if you drink champagne and vodka together chit will hit the fan. I am with a group staying in a dormatory at the University of Moscow. Our first night we decide to go to the discoteka and whoop it up. To celebrate our first night in Moscow we decide that champagne is in order--you have to realize that while I was there a bottle of what would be $100 champagne here was about $5 american dollars, as a perspective I could buy 3-5 liters of Stoli for an american dollar bill. Yep, I was there when their whole market crashed. Needless to say when the booze is nearly free, we went off like flies on chit. After closing down the bars (5am) we went back to the dorm to continue our drinking rampage, I happened to have a couple russian women with me--funny phenomena happened with the crash of the market if there was a russian woman nearby and you had an american accent she would love her boyfriend/husband with the hope of getting pregnant which of course gets you out of the country. Things got a bit interesting when we got back, and after putting down another liter between us my friend disappeared. Needless to say, he was puking outside in the hallway. In an effort to not get in trouble for puking right in the middle of the hallway he proceeded to start cleaning up. At this point he grabbed me and we went into the hallway looking for a water source. The most available was a firehose. In Russia, the maintenance on general things is not quite to the standards that we have here, so needless to say we unwound the firehose and proceeded to "clean" the hallway. After turning on the hose, we sprayed down the puke. Then of course we tried to shut off the hose, but the valve didn't work right or we were really retarded. I am not sure which it was, as I don't remember any of this first hand anyways. By the time we managed to get the water off there was more than an 1" of standing water throughout the whole hallway. Of course, with no way of dealing with this we just went to bed. The next morning the russian police were questioning everyone on our floor, luckily neither of us had any memory of what had happened and convinced them we were not to blame. Another bit of luck was one of the rooms that had been vacated had at least 20 empty liters of booze in it, so they determined they were to blame. Of course, a girl in our group had taken the time to shoot a couple of pictures: myself at the hose trying to fiddle with the valves and my buddy swinging the hose around his head after we had shut it off. In this case the prophecy seems true to me, chit definetely hit the fan.

I have lots of stories from Russia, thinking about going back in July too. We shall see. Perhaps when I get a moment I will pull a Ramos *story time*, but too busy at the moment.

Puke inducing isn't the problem, complete lack of judgement on the other hand it does cause. You don't really need to mix them, just start out with a bottle of champagne and switch to vodka. Lack of judgement? I'll take it! It basically nearly got me arrested in Moscow in 1991....
