Excuse me while I vomit up lunch.

The Pulitzer is more than a 10-minute walk from the train station, IIRC.

I have an idea for a video we all should make when at the shogun, as a spoof of the normal personal injury/accident lawyer TV ads, about "been bit by gate lice? join in our class action lawsuit and you could win!" :D maybe more asbestos styled..

Someone can write it and I'll try to film it but filming does take time. Now is this like the guy wearing a cowboy hat with NYC in the back ground or the Ronnie Doitch (sp?) who I had some unflattering commentary to when I see her. Starts with "There isn't a .............to get you your money."

Can you give me more details about the bus. Im going with the fiancee next weekend and will have a 7 hour layover. We basically just want to walk around and see the things AMS is known for. Coffee Shops and Red Light.

I will look up the schedule of the bus that I took, but if you just want to see the Red Light district, it is only a short walk from the train station. Plenty of coffee shops around there, as well.

He wants to know how much compensation he should ask for. :td:

they should give him a free frontal lobotomy and a Southwest status match.

I had a nice tour of some of the NetJets at Eppley on Saturday. As I was driving away from the airport, I was blasting AC/DC at max volume and heard an aircraft on the takeoff roll, still half a runway and buffer zone away from flying overhead. My suspicion that it was a NW DC-9 traveling toward me was quickly confirmed.
