I don't remember exactly - guy sitting on a stoop playing sax? Detail not enough to tell which musician.
Bram seems to be posting as normal, unless I'm missing something.
Turkey is like Spain - the rich gene pool means that you get both incredibly beautiful and incredibly ugly people (as opposed to genetically homogenous, well-noursihed countries like Norway, where everyone seems to be good-looking in a bland kind of way).
Thanks for your concern - Ankara is actually one of the safest cities in the world, unless you count the traffic. You have to live on the Eastern border to catch the friendly fire. The only worry here is that if an independent Kurdish state created in Northern Iraq, that could revive the Kurdish separatist movement in Turkey, just when Turkish-Kurdish relations were starting to improve.

haha! that's a very good way to put it. i'd go for the incredible, bland is for the birds.
don't mention it, it is sincere. there is a small murmur (probably sheer guesswork) that syria is next?
