Good luck from Sweden!

Sage and Todd are playing online backgammon.

Just as I was promised in the eighties, I am now playing backgammon with people all over the world. In fact, the other day I was playing with a person from Sweden.

“Good luck from Sweden!” the person said.

I replied, “Good luck from the midwest U.S.”

“No fires?” S/he asked.

“No, not here. We’re lucky.”

You know what I know about current events in Sweden? It’s a country. People live there. That’s about it. And yet, this person knew all about the L.A. fires.

Is this specific to American news? I remember being in England in the mid 80s and the tv news was all American - and nothing was even happening here at the time. Or is it just that people who don’t live in America are more up to date on what’s going on internationally?

I asked my mom and she said, “It’s like a big family, where the youngest child gets almost all of the attention.”

What do y’all think?

Todd I think I might have begun to put my neck back in.

Sage YAY!

Todd I agree - it’s been a long haul. If it works it’s because of that back cracking trick your mom taught me.

Sage My mom RULES.

Todd Let’s trade in her bike for a Trans Am.
