Vacation Spot o’ the Week: Bodrum permalink

Are you Hungary for Turkey?

Then pack your bags and head for the Turkish Aegean port of Bodrum, where you can sunbathe on a beach Cleopatra had imported from Egypt. You can also hit the trendy nightlife, which boasts some of the best saz jazz clubs around. Hang out in Old Halicarnassus’ castles, where you may even find some ancient tombs to loot.

If you get arrested for anything, which you probably will, here’s a list of embassies to call to bail you out of trouble.

Last night I ran into Wayne Gretzky at a medal ceremony and I told him that if Tocchet goes down, then he’ll go down. That’s a promise. Then I stuck a steak knife in his leg to let him know I mean it.
