    Albania - the "A" is for Awesome!

    What's not to like about Albania?

    I didn't realize it was so close to Italy, which makes Albanians close cousins to my wife's family.

    Plus, the flag sports a double-headed eagle. Pretty cool.

    Looks awesome.

    For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

    Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

      What a great idea for a thread!

      What I like about Albania is that there is a surprise around every corner. You never know what you are going to see next.

              Albania sits at the crossroads of the world! That's why they've welcomed countless uncontested arrivals through the millennia.

                  I can see it all so clearly. Save time and give up on securing the site now. They are one step ahead of the rest of us. All of us suckers still use deodorant every day.

                      The Dude, I don't think this thread is going as well as you'd hoped.

                              Huh. Maybe another name needs to be added to the "Greatest Albanians" lists on the other thread.

                                      What do mean? What about the word "awesome" don't you understand?

                                      Some more neat Albananania.

                                      The country has castles, real castles, something the U.S. does not have.

                                              Floods? Not a problem, the bakeries stay open.

                                                  I bet there are some really good Greek restaurants in Albania. That has to be nice.
