Rats, schmats. Try fire ants

by Richard H. White, Florida, United States

Vasch razkaz about rats in NYC was very interesting. As an ex-New Yorker I know your story is factual. Here we have a problem with fire ants and termites! That is the price one must pay not to have winter weather.

I learned Russian at the Army Language School mnogo lyet tomy nazad. I like the city of Novgorod, and Nevsky Prospect in St. Petersburg. In fact, if I could get my pension transferred to Russia, I would live in Novgorod. I am also very curious to learn about your part of Russia.

Do skorovo ot Richarda. I have a few friends in Russia — and of course a few here in Florida. Right now I have the air conditioner running on the 23 of January.
