. Happy to be back here and looking forward to meeting you all next week.But don't expect things to be any easier on the way out. The box your Dovster Award comes in says "Made in Israel" on it and I know that might cause you some problems with Lebanese Customs.
Therefore, I am having another box printed up for you here. This one says, "Made in North Korea. Handle with extreme care. Radioactive materials can be hazardous to your health."
That should give you some fun with the TSA!

Am I the only one who thinks that this historic meeting of BEYFlyer and Dovster should be on videotape or DVD in addition to still photographs?
Welcome back to the United States, BEYFlyer.
Oops, I suddenly have to leave the country. Oh well...
...nah, just kidding. Remember that I want to take the first-ever picture of you and the Dovster...

With all due respect to BEYFlyer, I would more enjoy seeing a movie of the first time that I get to meet Michelle Pfeiffer.
Incidentally, I figured out a way to guarantee that Canarsie will be the first one to take that first picture of BEY and me. BEY is staying at a different hotel. If Canarsie were to go there first and arrive together with BEY, he would be in the perfect position to snap the shot before anyone else can.
How could I have forgotten??

underpressure, I'd be interested in the Boat Show as well - provided I can bum a ride from somebody...

How far is the boat show from the ES? They might be willing to have the shuttle go there for you.
BTW, for the next few days I am in the Hilton Suites in Boca. I saw a sign in the lobby noting that there is a reception tonight for a bat mitzvah.
I was thinking that it would be very nice of me to give the bat mitzvah girl a present that came from Israel. I wonder how long it would take me to get declared persona non grata forever from the Hilton chain by giving a 13 year old girl the completely tasteless shirt I brought for Cholula.

That is to the convention center. They have three different venues.
Admission for Saturday Only is $16.00
I am certin that you can take the water taxi and avoid the parking and traffic hassle.http://www.watertaxi.com/FortLauderdale/FLLMap.Asp Get off at stop number 7.
Traffic and parking down there is just horrible. Double tree has a parking deck at Sunrise Boulevard Location. There are several areas that you can park at and take the water taxi to the CC.

Dovster, Canarsie and Traveller, to pick three random DO attendees, pls check your e-mail asap.
We have a procedural issue concerning Saturday night's DO dinner to discuss.

Okay, I have read my e-mail and my answer is "No!" Besides, I don't think that having me tarred and feathered is legal in Florida anymore.
