I googled "cash" and what a rush of nostalgia that brought. How quaint! I'm in, and will contribute for those who collect c-c-c-cash. Now, I just have to google how one actually gets cash. Any clues? I looked up ATM and it said asynchronous transfer mode.

I may be a few minutes late tonight. My flight to LGA was oversold and I picked up a $325 voucher to move from the 2:28 to the 4. Sadly, we're delayed so I likely won't get to LGA until 7ish.

If you’re used to mass transit be aware Astoria Blvd N W station is closed, so M60 isn’t the best. Take Q70 SBS to either E or F. Use the dispenser to get a bus ticket before boarding and get on any available door.

Please, I may live in North Carolina now but I did grow up in New York, I know how to ride a SBS!

Anyway, we're in the air now should be arriving just before 7 so I'll likely be close to on time.

Thanks - that was great, and I was reminded about cash and how it can sprain one's wrist.

Thanks to Catman for being a great host and a great friend and for his great humor.

Also to bdnyc for the use of his home and allowing us to raid his wine cellar.

And to all who contributed to making a wonderful evening. It was great to see people again.

Been sleeping it off, hence the possible incoherence..

Cheers,
M

Why apologize for incoherence at 730AM? I just opened my eyes at 10AM and am still not completely compos mentis.

But I do remember having a great evening meeting some good friends and special thanks to old friends Catman and bdnyc..
