> Last Thursday ....... Thursday and Friday being the weekend in 
> Afghanistan, I was invited to a country property in Qarabagh, a rural 
> area some 35 kilometers north of Kabul.  I was surrounded by people of 
> great character, who were brimming with hospitality and open  affection. 
> The main attraction was a professional group of musicians,  they played 
> older songs that people sang and danced along with, they  also played a 
> special song for me.  This is how Afghan men enjoy  themselves.
