Passport Problems

Well, one of our number may not be leaving Oman any time soon. I'm not sure of the entire story, but here's what I have gleaned so far. Amy was walking along or crossing the street, which is pretty busy. A car came really close to her and almost hit her, so she kicked it. The driver was an Omani woman, and she had a passenger. This woman and the passenger both say that Amy cussed at the woman. They followed her to the hotel and called the police, and the police took her passport. Apparently cussing someone out is an insult to their honor, and it normally takes 2-3 months to clear this up. So Amy is currently in limbo. Our director is trying to fast-track the process.

Delays

Well, I had planned to put up pictures, but I've run into a problem. I can't resize my photos. I have a 10 Megapixel camera, so the pictures are large. And none of my damn graphics programs seem to have a resize feature. I really miss Irfan!!! So stay tuned until I can figure this out.
