Filler

Presidential elections are getting close. How can I tell? Well, there are Nazarbaev (incumbent for quite some time now) materials everywhere in "Kazakh" light blue and yellow. At least four posters are on every bus, power pole and stationary flat surface. There are also the opponents. One was murdered a while back. The others have catchy slogans like, "Our people's deputy, our people's canidate." He sports the tried and true hammer and sickle logo as well. Jon and I commented as we waited in 10 degree weather if "our people's" bus was coming anytime soon.

Thanksgiving was great, by the way. Details to come. And a newsletter.
