Wonderful Reading! - From: When the mercury drops
Hey Chris, Loved your Blog. You provided your old Mom some great giggles followed by frequent belly laughs. I continue to maintain your calling is writing comedy (books or newspaper columns), writing for TV comedy shows, etc. You are great! Love you, Mom

mad bus - From: Mad bus, bad bus
I thought of the two of you when I saw the YouTube video of the bus; who knew it was one you rode! We have had some flu here, too, although the schools have not shut down. I, on the other hand, took a spin with the flu and was also out a week. Stay well...and good luck to Sveta! Jamie

jam-packed transportation - From: Mad bus, bad bus
I liked your description of the passengers on the buses. When we were in Poland, we were always amazed at how many people could get on the bus or tram. There is always room for one more...

- From: Mad bus, bad bus
The Perm bus attack made the news here. It might just have been "the Soup" on E!, but it was on US television. We were certain that if it had been you dodging the bus, we would have heard from Aunt Christie.

Uncle Joe - From: Warmth-loving people
We all have a clear choice; pragmatic or phlegmatic. The matic you choose means a lot. No matter what you do remember that Uncle Joe Stalin is watching you.

Glad I wasn't there - From: Warmth-loving people
Photos are great! The story was great, but no way, no how would I sleep in the mice attic with nasty blankets. You both look great and like warm-loving campers. The best always. Terri Diff

Warmth-loving people - From: Warmth-loving people
Such adventures you are having! I have to say that you and Sveta show remarkable patience and a pragmatic view of making the best of whatever situation. Here we are in the process of re-building our staff; Wes has decided to not be a church musician right now, John is off to Cleveland with his wife Laura (starting graduate school) and Anne is off to a church with a full-time position. I don't know that we have been as pragmatic with our situation and are scrambling to pull things together for August and September... Thanks again for sharing! Blessings, Jamie

Defending the Fatherland - From: Defending the Fatherland
That all sounds like a lot of fun, even the busted lip. Food, drink, and singing on a bus ride? Sign me up. It all looks like Colorado. I'm alarmed that the Russian Federation is luring you into the fold with their asiatic food and art. We have much more comfortable ski lifts in Colorado you know. Sunny wanted me to tell you that there is a banner ad under your blog stating, "Find Your Russian Beauty Today!" RussianEuro.com

Congrats! - From: Defending the Fatherland
Congratulations on Men's Day! And more importantly, your guys' anniversary! So what did you write for your autographs? "I'm not famous. Chris Rasmussen"? Or "Gold Medal Winner Chris Rasmussen"?

Reading your blogs... - From: Hitchhiking in Russia
I am eager to follow more of your adventures. Especially liked the visual of "driving to test their skills", and naked in the bath house with the bundles of switches! In Poland too, there is a demand for exact change, and many family gardens that were issued to workers during the Soviet era.

I heard it in Russia - From: Hitchhiking in Russia
I actually saw her face when I told her about our adventures. But here there are less weirdos at the wheel.

Happy Birthday! - From: The dogs are all right
Happy Birthday, Chris! I hope all is still going well in Perm. I miss your blog entries. I try to fill my finals studying time with on-line distractions, and your blogging hiatus is not helping.

How I carry things - From: Finland nice
I've often thought what you might say if you could see me walking around with that giant backpack on my back. I've rolled it for a total of once. It was easier, but not my style (too slow!)

Thank God for Finland nice, and the long waits.

backpack - From: Finland nice
Seeing it I can only hope that you roll it more than you carry it on your back.

So, those books were languishing in the kitchen here in Iowa, but are all packaged up and will be mailed on Tuesday. Um, I was just letting you settle in.

I meant the rain-catcher. The other is not obabok, it is muhomor - "fly-killer" (but the flies are not killed by it, they just become extatic and relaxed)

English Text - From: Change
I don't know if you were able to bring the Russian language book I gave you to Russia, but you could use it as a template for English instruction. Maybe work backwards? Or you could just be like Robin Williams in Good Morning Vietnam. "Give me some skin." Good luck Chris.

I think, the mexican restaurant is called something "Gringos", But the guy is a Speedy Gonzalez in the human form.

Anchors away! - From: Conferring with dead -- last rites
Thank you, Peter. I have much to learn. Had I been able to visit the Anchor, I believe that soem of these things would be more clear to me now.
