Random update

Just a quick update.....
1.  Darcy the wonder dog has gotten herself in a family way.  Just what Sumba needs.... more dogs.  What they really need is a vet!

2.  Someone from our study village was angry they couldn't participate in a human landing catch* one night, so they set fire to the entomology team's experimental hut.  

3.  Colby, Novi, Esti, and I are off to W. Timor to visit the bustling metropolis of Kupang this weekend.  Everyone here thinks Chris will starve do death without us.  I don't think he will have a problem finding food on his own (or beer for that matter).  I am positive he will not do any dishes or wash any of his dirty duds while we are away :).

 *For a human landing catch,you sit very still all night long and let mosquitos bite you.  When a mosquito lands you catch it in a cup so someone from the entomology team can record the species and time.  Sounds like fun, right?
