Trojan Horse

Most of you are probably wondering where did this title come from. Well, I have been craving Greek food for a while now and on Friday we decided to go to 'Trojan Horse', a restaurant in Bloomington that calls itself Greek. I always wondered how they stayed in business with such a low quality of food and poor service. It wasn't long before I got my $6.00 'Greek' salad that consisted of ONE tomato, ONE cucumber, THREE olives, about 1/32th of an onion and a little feta that I got my question answered.
Of course during dinner we couldn't help but bringing on the table Molly's favorite subject. "We should open a Cyprus restaurant in Bloomington". I kind of like that discussion because I try to apply what I learned in Business school up to now and with arguments such as high operational costs, low summer season etc. try to convince Molly that it is not a good idea. I never win the argument however, I just quit arguing because I get bored.
We continued our night out at Yogi's for some beers and some chatting with MBA classmates. Nothing fancy there.

On a totally different subject, I just realised today that the Cyprus elections are coming up soon. It will be nice to see the race between the three candidates. Mr. Tassos "I work more than any other Cypriot" Papadopoulos, Mr. Demetris "I was supporting Tassos for 4 years but now I want to be President" Christofias and Mr. Ioannis "I live in my own little world" Casoulides. Good luck to all of them. I would personally vote for Outopos if I were in Cyprus.

Elections are heating up here too with Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton racing for the Democrat nomination. No matter how much I tried to understand how the system works here with the primaries etc, I cannot get it. My prediction for the next U.S president....John McCain.

That's all for today..I am off to a 4-hour Panathinaikos festive now. Starting with basketball and then football (or soccer as they call it here). Until then take care
