Actual texts I've been getting over the last few days:

Unknown Kenyan Number: "Hi Scot ts me JESUS"
Me: "Who?"
Unknown Number: "JESUS son of JOSEPH and MARY so how is the holy spirit guiding u in Kenya?"
Me: No Response
June 6th, 2012
Unknown Number: "Hey scot"
Unknown Number: "So how is yo experience with Eco Ethics? n yo supper today tastes so delicious."
Unknown Number: "It is alright even though u wont reply ma texts bt dnt forget to sleep under the mosquito net tonight... lol"
So at this point I'm a little freaked out. My response:
Me: "Ya sorry dude. Dont know any jesus that would eat my dinner"
Unknown Number: "Make sure its not yo last supper."
Me: "Haha nice one"
Unknown Number: "Yah so how i high level? You seemed to b bored at work today what was wrong with you?"
So after telling my host parents and calling my adviser, I realized I was totally being "trolled" by Aman's host brother. The catch is that he doesn't know that I know yet. I've been trying to think of a possible response:
Me: "Yo talked to the US embassy. They traced your call back to Shelly Beach. Have fun with the CIA dude."
Let's see what he says to that one.

Julie and I went to Mombasa a few years ago. I agree, you won't go hungry there. Nakumatt Supermarket has everything from back home. A few good seafood rests too, although those are mostly for tourists. The coffee is delicious. Go to Carnivore when you get to Nairobi!
ReplyDeleteOh, Haller Park is awesome. I would go also to Gedi Ruins... Look for the beautiful blue flowers that are fatal if ingested.
ReplyDeleteIt makes me proud to see you've taken the day off to watch the World Famous Los Angeles Kings win the Stanley Cup, albeit long anticipated and broadly predicted.
ReplyDeleteOh... My original reason to comment... I forgot to mention that you should go to Masai Mara in Tanzania... that is, if you are able and you must choose between that ant Tsavo East and West... Choose Masai Mara. We went to Tsavo East and West, which was a good experience, but folks we were with raved about seeing cheetahs and more exotic animals there.
