I may have...

told this story before, but I like it and it's my blog so I'm going to tell it again.

One evening a few years ago, a pilot friend and I were sitting in the 3615 in Kinshasa. It is an outdoor bar/pizza joint located on the main drag downtown. Besides us, there were a few Belgians and Frenchman who had been in the country for years doing various things in various places, some UN guys out of uniform, a couple of NGO types and a score plus five or more Kinois bar girls on the make. The night was calm with just a touch of heat leftover from the day and I had a whole anchovie pizza to myself.

I looked around at the scene and said to my friend

"You know Dawson, I reeeeaaaaally like this!"

And I did.
