choclo and nice Danish ladies

The first Danish woman I travelled with was Lena, way back in 1964. We first met in Istanbul and we Xed paths a few times until we started travelling together in Damascus Syria and onward to Jordan and the Jordanian part of Jerusalem. We were both hitch-hiking and on the cheap, and the cheap part was easy because of the incredible hospitality of Palistinians. Sure is a different sence of humor there. Women in particular have to be very careful, and it is best that they travel with a male protecter, as I was for Lena (we had some tense moments). Looked at some Danish cartoons. Thought that one of the turbinned Moslem with a lit fuse pretty much the way our press treats our presidents and religious figures, including Jesus. Different sence of humor. Sure into blowing themselves and others up. I like the Danes I have met. Like their sence of humor. I also like other Scandinavians. Open, honest sences of humor. Know how to take a joke and critisism, justified or not. Don't have a chip on their shoulders and wish others well. That was a nice appology by the Danish newspaper. Going to see that movie about Moslem humor. choclo
