Raymond's interesting fact
I am a fluent speaker of the Russian language. I served my mission in the Donetsk, Ukraine mission and I loved it there. I was able to see the whole eastern side of Ukraine. It's a crazy place and I hope that I'll be able to write about some of the crazy experiences that I had there. Maybe we should re-name this site to "Stranger Than Ukraine." Although, if I were to pick a strange place, Wal-Mart would definately be my choice.
I also mentioned that I made my own hunting knife over the summer. I love to hunt and fish and be outdoors. And I woked for a guy over the summer who makes Damascus Steel. He's world famous and he let me choose a piece of his steel to make a knife. It's pretty sweet. Maybe I can bring it to class for show and tell. What do you think?

That is so cool! Not only to speak Russian (I had a music teacher who had emigrated here and he was just learning English, so it was often hard to understand him. Sometimes he would talk to someone on his cell in Russian, and it was the coolest sounding language in the world!)
It is also so amazing that you had the opportunity to make your own knife, certianly not something just anyone gets a chance to do these days. You said he was world famous? Does he live around here? What is his name? Sorry, weapons are always a facination of mine, particuarlly ancient weaponry, and I've always loved damascus steel. Very awesome entry.
