happy thanksgiving

To make matters worse, on both days, a third older man (not Russian) with a cane has entered the room and the three of them start talking business (they’re talking business now).
We can’t understand everything, but their business involves the transfer of 10-50 million of some currency, and the Russians are warning that “there must be no complications this time.” There is also talk of people stealing things from boxes… and finding fake boxes stuffed with newspaper. There was also something about “the Americans.”
The three of them talk, then the old guy makes a phone call, then they renegotiate.
If Gemma and I turn up missing and/or dead, it’s definitely because of this.
Happy Thanksgiving.
I think you guys have been watching too much 24. LOL

This is definitely not an ideal way to spend Thanksgiving. I hope you had a blessed one anyway. :o)

Hmm….I think you missed an opportunity here. You could have walked up to them all slow and somber like, given a poker-faced nod, and say “he” sent you to see that things went smoothly this time and to transfer 20% of the total sum for “him”. They hand you a briefcase, and you walk briskly out of the building, then hightail it out of the country.
Or they might just shoot you. Either way, makes for a good story, eh? Ah, international intrigue.
