Interesting--you can buy Permafrost online: http://www.melandrose.com/istar.asp?...rch=permafrost

(I hope posting a link about alcohol isn't against the FT TOS. I'm pretty sure it isn't; if it were, half of FT would be in deep crap... )
I miss my glacierita...

So, did you make it to TLL?

Just found out I might have to go to Hawaii for a work trip. It won't be as fun as it could be. I'll be working 12 hour days in a server room with no windows. Pretty much a form of torture if you ask me.

Took a ferry there- fun trip and the liquor is about half the cost there as in HEL.

We do have a visitor very soon from LA though.

Hmm. That would work. Thanks for picking a day I'm off!

Does golfingboy have a place to sleep other than the insanely-high-tourist-season's-almost-here room rates at area hotels?

(I promise, he's a REALLY quiet guest... )

Oh, and owflyer will be stopping by on 6/5 (leaving 6/6). Anyone up for something then?

Thinking dinner at one of the usual good choices (Teeth, Simon's, BrewHouse, etc.)...

Been workin' with a few FTers on it... but they seem to want to go camping

Hey there's an idea... we could go camping and pitch a tent

I'm still trying to persuade one of those who is now down under to detour thru NYC with a stop at the FT Wine Dinner.
