Selamat pagi Tony,
(Good morning in Indonesian for other readers)
Yes, indeed, enjoyed my Kopi luwak ! Being a coffee drinker I can say once trying the real good stuff, it's nearly impossible to return to Starbucks or US Army rusty bolt opener coffee.
Warm regards,
Bob

Hello Bob,
I'm not a great coffee user so it won't seduce me at this moment.
For the record: I'm Dutch but I had some Indonesian colleagues at Rank Xerox Manufacturing in the (yeah) South of the Netherlands in the 70's, early 80's.
So....My Indonesian is just as bad as my English, but I'm trying to.....
Greetzz
Tony

If you like some rock music: this might be something and it's Dutch www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CieNvYQZSY&feature=relatedPlay it LOUD and watch the whole thing, you won't get disappointed. These old rockers are still live on top!! My favorite Dutch Rock band. This 1973 (during the cold war) song makes you still drive too fast on the highway..... This is a appearance on the Belgium TV, oct 2011!! The presence of the keyboardplayer is new (and unknown) to me. And this 2005 performance with bass an drumsolo ain't bad.... www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMPdqeMBGXI&feature=relatedWarm regards (from the other side of the world), Tony |

Good morning Tony,
Your English is good; if you were in the US, you'd be in the top half of English speakers. This is notwithstanding the massive immigration of Mexicans recently completed.
US Army publications were once prepared at the level of introductory university level. Now, I am told, they are prepared at the intro-primary school level.
Can't appreciate......let alone listen, to any kind of music. I have a partial hearing loss from military service. My hearing loss claim denial is classical "gallows humor" !
Warm regards,
Bob

Good morning Bob, About insurances and claim denials, it's very doubtful. But nobody starts an insurance company because they feel that people with a physical illness should be helped. I remember Michael Moore's Sicko. I'm sorry to read about your partial hearing loss from military service. So I touch my keyboard buttons a little more heavy now for good intelligibility  Humor with a wink makes life a little bearable....(even if it's gallows or dark humor) Warm regards, Tony |
