Sorry to bump this old thread - I can't believe it's been five years!

The reason I thought to do so is that Derek recommended a pizza place to me that I finally got around to visiting, Pizza Nino in Paris - just a block from the Hyatt Regency Etoile. My partner had left for home and I was alone, feeling kind of sentimental, so I looked in the notes on my phone for the place. Anyway, I went there, as I had always intended to do.

Sadly, the pizza sucked, but I sat outside on a lovely evening and remembered our old friend. :)

This is too strange. Out of nowhere, he came to mind yesterday, and then today. I thought of the time when he had an 8-hour layover in ATL and regretfully I wasn't able to meet up with him. So I signed in here to look for this thread. And there you are, ILP.
