Medicals

We had our medicals yesterday at the American Medical Clinic in Moscow.  Funny.....we were the ONLY Americans there.  Eight doctors asking some quick questions and doing a few tests.  The psychiatrist asked us the usual questions and then asked if we kept guns in the house.  We both said "No", which is true.  The doctor had a smirk on his face and spoke quickly in Russian to his interpreter, who chuckled and looked at us and said "Are you sure you don't have any guns??  Not even for protection??"  The doctor said that we were unusual since we didn't.  Apparently, since we live in TEXAS, it's assumed that we own multiple firearms.  I guess we should have worn our cowboy boots and Carhartt jackets with big Texas hair and chewing tobacco to seem more authentic.
