  1. Dave, Borat is from Kazakhstan. Outside of Almaty to be exact. I have a friend from there and always make fun of her for that. We call her the “#4 prostitute in the country”. I even wanted to get her a shirt with that phrase.

  2. Yeah – I was confused by Arkady as well (hey, Arkady – what’s up with your name? Homage to Tolstoy? Dostoyevski? _insert_great_Russian_writers_here?)

    I am from Uzbekistan, also came here 20+ years ago, and have lived all over (Midwest, Cali, now NY for 7+ years).

    And boy, would I be in trouble with Byelorussian – whenever I hear that, I think I am going crazy – it sounds like Russian, but gibberish.

  3. “Rob, I agree with that. 2nd hand smoke is not only bad but is an invasion of someone’s personal breathing space”-m4l

    God, I hate holier-than-thou anti-smokers. On a public street! How about if I say that ugly person’s appearance is an invasion of my personal aesthetic?

    Rob, for once I agree with you.
