Hello kiddos, long time no talk......
I was half way around the world for some time. Old classmate of mine threw me a bone and hired me at a well known international NGO and I ended up in Afghanistan. We were working on a water project in the eastern part of the country. I tell you what, I have accomplished a lot in life, like being the cabdriver of the month two month in a row few years ago...
"Mad Cabbie you are a pathetic looser, is that all you have to show for your college education, driver of the freaken month?"
Listen, don't call me a looser you jackass, you know when the last time they had cabdriver of the month two months in a row at Diamond Cab? It was in 1942 by a driver called Billy St. Jack! So besides being in the same league with hall of famer like Billy, the water project in Afghanistan tops the list. It was a hell of an experience, even though I was shitting in my pants every time I heard a loud noise. I grew my beard like my college Rasputin days to blend in, locals loved me and some Talibans were high fiving me, they were like "Yo nigger, what's up with the skid-marks in your pants, we're not going to hurt you..."
Look,, this is not a water project blog, I would like to go in details and write some funny experiences but I don't want to jeopardize of being hired again if I have that opportunity.
There is a lot of shit I need to get to about our DC cab business..... Ron Linton, Mary Cheh, Mayor Gray, Russ Ptacek, DC hack inspectors, DC inspection station, Uber.......All of these jackasses better get ready!
Please don't forget the homeless,
Mad Cabbie.

Breath of fresh air, welcome back.
Welcome back.
I am sure that Afghanistan was something completely different as well as edge-uh-mah-kaytinn and all of that stuff.
It's Phil. Too much of a pain to sign into anything, so I just use 'anonymous' and you know who I am.
What's up Phil, I hear you're not with Diamond anymore. Diamond is a sinking ship anyways with CEO Abebe at the deck....I am back in town to the dangerous DC streets, I felt safe back in Afghanistan. How is your bride doing, tell her I said hello! Christmas is coming, I need to buy some shit from her Ebay store.
Nice to have you back Mad! I was fearing the worst but here you are safe and sound.

Thanks Moi, how you been? I am fine, I just don't have a cab to drive. They refuse to give my tag back because I was out of the country for a year representing America's good will.
I was in Bangkok on the way back home, guess what? Ethiopian Restaurant! It was pretty good too!
It is nice to know that Ethiopians and their friends in Bangkok are well fed. :)
I hope you get your hack license back. I wanted to ask you a question but couldn't find your e-mail.
Dude, Mad, you write your welcome back post and now I look and see that you have disappeared for 7 months again! Did you go back to NGO work? Either way I hope all is well. Sending you high fives. ~Petunia
