I just had an e-mail confirming that my contract has been renewed for my summer season job on the beautiful Greek island of Zakynthos. Fly out on May 1st and i have a sweet apartment overlooking the beach.

6 months of sun, Swedish girls and drinking till i puke.

Cannot wait.

Just another month of this shitty job i'm doing now.

There are no Greek girls in Greece? Do they import the Swedish girls in to fill a quota or something?

Yeah, OPA was the first thing I thought of too. That shouldn't be.

That's true. You should think of Ouzo, or Balaklava...ANYTHING but OPA!

This a cross-dressing issue, or national pride?

Ah so. You'd think they'd lighten up, in the name of increased tourism.

By the way, it's called Baklava, and Galaktoboureko is so much better anyway.

Galaktoboureko is delicious. It's a filo pastry similar to Baklava but instead of nuts, it's filled with custard. It's very good and not as sweet as Baklava.
