Doctor, Doctor, give me the news.....

Got to experience the medical services here in Jakarta as Joel had to take a (school) ambulance when he pulled his calf muscle while playing basketball. It was the only way they could get him off the school grounds as he couldn't walk. He's ok, took a day off to rest. We bought him a rather dapper cane and he know hobbles around reminding us all of Frazier's Dad.
Derek topped that by crashing into the underwater steps in the pool today and he required 8 stitches and a bit of haircut. He took it well and now sports a rather dapper bandage on his head. Thankfully he is fine and will be ok too. Let's hope that will be ALL we will see if the medical services in Jakarta.
A bit of news that made me laugh today. Yesterday there was a big May Day Labor protest. The city was expecting the worst and literally shut down. In today's paper they reported a peaceful protest due to the fact that the government hired 60 "rainmen" spiritualists to cause it to rain and disperse the protesters. Each man was paid $120 each. I guess it worked as it rained like crazy!
