Ambitious Kyrgyz Kidnappers Foiled
Hadn't seen coverage of this elsewhere, but Stars and Stripes is reporting that a female USAF officer reported missing, then abducted, last week has been found and is on her way back to the Land of the Round Doorknob.
Major Jill Metzger was in Kyrgyzstan, with her unit nearing the end of its tour, when she was taken from a shopping mall in Bishkek. The article states that Major Metzger escaped her captors and was subsequently found by police, but is otherwise lean on detail. Well, it's enough to know that they didn't have her long.
I like to think though that her being a competetive marathon runner was helpful in her escape:
"Achmed! She's making a break for it! Drop the hookah! After her!"
500 meters later:
"Achmed! She's...getting...away...gasp...Quickly!"
Two kilometers later:
"Achmed...gasp...we...wheeze...will...speak...of...this...to...no one...gasp...*hurl*"

Only tangentially apropos, the "hurl" reference reminded me of my web-savvy daughter's search for alternatives to the phrase.
