Yes, we are brothers, and understand it. BTW Lap, I am in the boonies as we speak. It comes from the Tagalog word bundoc, meaning mountain. I am in the mountains of Mindanao right now. I can assure you, if there was a dictionary definition of boonies, it would have a picture of this place next to it. This is as primitive an area, as I saw anywhere in Vietnam, even though I did not see a lot.

I commend you, Mark17 for living there and dealing with all you must have to. As you say, you are in as “boonie” a place as it gets in the whole world. Best regards to you.
