Two acquaintances of mine who ran the English Language school in Tirana, Albania had previously worked in Yemen during the civil war. Under fire, Shell Oil got them out with Shell’s employees, and they were brought to London, where their employers got them first row theater tickets…


…to Miss Saigon.

To hear them retell the story is very funny. It was not so funny at the time.

They did. They appriciated the tickets going into the theater. They then tried to crawl under their seats when the gunfire started.
