Looks like I've just found my job: hooker.

cooncat, water just sprayed out of my mouth (and nose!) all over my keyboard.

My god, how funny. I guess every company needs at least one hooker.

You guys are cracking me up!

Now that we have a hooker I think it's a great plan. What's the first destination?

I admit that I was having second thoughts about this proposed safari, that is until Cooncat stepped forward.

Cooncat, if you are the hooker, I guess I'll have to step up to the plate as the pimpette or madam

No, no, Sarvo, we will definitely need a stable of hookers. Please, I hope you'll prove yourself a team player and help where you're most needed.

Cooncat is quite intrepid, but I'm sure she can't do ALL the hooking.

Sarvowinner,

Excuse me, but as the safari planners, Sandi and I will be sharing the pandering commissions. While we appreciate the 20% commissions we will get from the lodges, we are really salivating over the 80% commissions that we will exploit out of Cooncat!

You're going to be too busy flying clients. Came across this http://www.pilotjournal.com/content/...es/safari.html

Duncan Elliot(and his parents) is a friend of mine and was pleased to see he got his license. His father was the top tobacco grower in Zimbabwe for years.

luangwablondes,

I am pretty good at multitasking, so I will fly the plane as well.

NOTICE: There will be a 50% surcharge on normal "companion" rates for joining the mile-high club.

Do I have NOTHING to day in these matters? I may have agreed to be our hooker, but that doesn't make me a non-entity! Show some respect!!!!!

Our house is in the market here in Falls Church so we can spend more time in Africa

Anybody in the market for a house

Carol gave me a mile-long list of chores before the open-house this Sat and Sun.

I've been banned from Fodors until my jobs are done - I'm only half-way done but this thread has taken such a wild turn that I am now all eyes and ears

I was going to post something funny, but Carol is coming down into the basement and I have to sign off quick - bye until later!

Rocco -

... those commissions have to be shared by all... especially the hooker; the pimp/madam get the cut from the hooker! Does this mean we have to enter the world of "the big names?"

Can I come too? I could be in charge of security...well maybe not after you read my next installment on Chongwe River Camp, but I'll carry the bags!
