Stuck between a rock and 11 other volunteers

Here's the update:

I'm stuck in a tiny aparptment with ten other volunteers. So far its been fun, but I don't know what the future holds in store. Luckily, we have been supplied with about a hundred movies (the majority in English) of Joe's, a volunteer stuck in Bishkek now (poor bastard). The previouslly stated movies and Wilbur's computer keep our greedy fingers from around each other's knecks. Remember Wilbur? He married Mahima in the episode called 'gossip' and things went awry.

Saltanat, the Peace Corps person for Issyk-Kul Oblast visited this morning and gave us an update from the source which is Alex. (no longer JC so sorry to say...) We'd heard most of it through the grapevine from volunteers in other oblasts. We're taking bets to see if we get shipped home. Issyk-Kul Oblast's is a 40% bet. Naryn's is 60%. Their brain's are fried from meat and cold right now.

When I told my friends that I was going to join the Peace Corps they said, 'Wow! That's really cool! I would like to have that life of freedom! The ability to go where few American's have trod before and experience a third-world style of carefreeness!' From reading the above paragraphs one will see that the Peace Corps does not work that way. Much like in an office job (we watched 'Office Space' this morning so I'm drawing from that) when the boss says jump, at the appropriate time you inquire, 'how high?'
