How many Manhattans you had yesterday?

It is a mystery that will forever remain unsolved

Fill a mixing glass with cracked ice. Add whiskey and sweet vermouth. Stir and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a cherry.

" U.S. airliner lands in Vietnam for first time in three decades "


" Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam - A U.S. passenger jet landed in Vietnam today, the first since the Vietnam War ended nearly 30 years ago.

United Airlines Flight 869, from San Francisco, arrived in Ho Chi Minh City, formerly Saigon, at shortly after 10 p.m. today (8 a.m. MST).

The flight - carrying 347 people, including some Vietnamese who fled their country after the war - was the first U.S. commercial plane to touch down at Tan Son Nhat International Airport since the wartime capital of South Vietnam fell to the communists in 1975.

VIPs emerging from the blue and white plane were greeted by Vietnamese women wearing traditional white tunics, or ao dais, and holding lotus blossoms and silk lanterns.

U.S.-Vietnam relations have improved considerably in recent years. The two countries established diplomatic ties in 1995, and in 2001 they signed a landmark trade agreement, followed by an aviation pact last year.

In November 2003, the first U.S. Navy ship since the Vietnam War docked on the Saigon River.

United Airlines, which filed for bankruptcy two years ago, is betting the daily flight to Vietnam will be a big moneymaker. Some 1 million ethnic Vietnamese who live in the United States, the largest population outside Vietnam, and many visit their homeland every year.

The carrier says it expects air travel to Vietnam to grow by 10.5 percent a year in the next decade.

Among the flight's passengers was 48-year-old Van Trinh, one of the tens of thousands of Vietnamese who fled the country in boats after the war.

"I'm excited to see Vietnam now because 30 years is too long," she said before boarding the Boeing 747-400.

The country is also a popular destination with American veterans who want to see how it has changed.

"The United Airlines link between the two countries will not only serve Vietnamese nationals living in America, but I was told that 45 million Americans wanted to travel to Vietnam, and that is a very big market," said Nguyen Xuan Hien, Vietnam Airlines president and CEO.

Many Americans who fought in the war have vivid memories of Tan Son Nhat airport, where they caught Pan American "freedom birds" home or to rest stops such as Hong Kong and Japan.

Now-defunct Pan American was the last commercial U.S. airline to fly out of Vietnam before Saigon fell on April 30, 1975.

Meanwhile, Vietnam's state-owned airline has expressed interest in opening its own route to San Francisco by the end of next year, or early 2006.

And American Airlines has established a partnership with Vietnam Airlines Corp. that allows them to complete journeys for each other's passengers. But American does not fly directly to Vietnam.

"The new United Airlines route is a new indicator of the strong relations between the United States and Vietnam," U.S. Ambassador to Vietnam Michael Marine said. "

gypsy My mother-in-law went back last year, and hated it. She wanted to come home...she called and said "My country not look like it use to look. I hate it here. I want come home. It not the same." She brought back some beautiful jade and ivory jewelry, and gave me most of it.

Riffhard You do know Joey that I lived in Thailand from '68 to '73 didn't you? Yes that's right my friend,I lived there while my father(the colonel) was the CO for a training base in Kuratt(a village near the Laos border). I was a bit too young to take advantage of all that Bangkok had to offer,but I did learn how to curse like sailor in Thai. So I got that going for me.


"Thai food is the gourmet of the Orient Ronnie!"

I already guessed that. I'm sure that's what it is.
However, if he had petitions to sign, then I would have guessed Mizz/Miss U.

Sir Stonesalot Geez....didn't anyone ever hear of satire???

Did it ever occur to anyone that the lameness was intentional???

Lew has nothing to do with it. I couldn't care less about him or his polls.

How right you are Joey! We did keep Thailand free! I'm also happy to report that I personally helped liberate quite a few Thai sticks in my day. Can't find any off that stuff here in Jersey. I hear it is still readily available on the left coast though. In Thailand they use it in their cooking. Which might help explain why the more Thai food you eat the more hungry you get.
