I still have connectivity issues with the pb2 site, connections refused as opposed to timing out.

I have a server sitting on 100mb in san antonio if mbm3 wants to set the pb2 site there. ;)

I need to make an official determination as to brunch.

The Marriott definitely is situated in the best location of all central AMS hotels.

I've similarly fired leftover risotto into little balls from leftovers. Delicious!

Do you plan to stay in SIN or just connect?

The fact that it isn't a hub shouldn't be a problem but routing via TATL for SE Asia would be. MLE is a TATL routing so you should be able to make it work but SIN might mess things up. Would you be willing to route via DXB instead? That should be no problem at all.

As I told the woman I'm on the phone with, I'm completely flexible.

Looks like she's got me wait-listed on EK via DXB and then return via SIN (in F). :D

Now let's see if the EK flights clear. :rolleyes:

Good afternoon, Box.

I was here in the middle of the night. Couldn't sleep so decided to catch up with the Box. All was well until about 4:45am when FT just disappeared and wouldn't come back!

Seems OK, now. I read up-thread that it was hacked?????? Bad, naughty hackers :mad:

mnmag - sorry to hear of your predicament with DS. Hope things are calming down a bit now.

Wonder if I can talk the old man into flying me down for the day if the FFL fees are too high.

Starting to use free checked bags early?

Apparently aliens have abducted the Cleveland Browns.

Maybe. I told him that I found some same-day turns for $195. The transfer fees and shipping might come close to that number depending on if he has to pay on his end, as he claims to "know someone". :rolleyes:

The most galling part of this is that when I told him he had to ship via FFL holders, he said:

"Why don't you just put it in a box?" :eek:

Well, let's see - my struggle in finding a job will not be lessened when the alphabet soup of Teh Gubmint comes knocking on my door wanting to hang a Federal weapons charge on me now, will it?

MBM's host(Godaddy) has routing issues, many people can't reach it. After I take another nap, I will emial him and try to get something setup.

I need half-round of wedge and a track bar adjustment

It was just a brief stop in the lounge ... ate at a restaurant on P.C. Hooftstraat last night and plan the Rijskmuseum (or what part of it is open) tomorrow morning before going to work in the afternoon. I had thought about going to the Concertgebouw tonight but went to dinner in the Jordaan and got back too late for the evening concert. I think I am too old for the Leidseplein at night by myself.

I went to Haarlem for the day to visit the Teylers Museum, which my college roommate who recommended it to me aptly described as a good setting for a scene in a Dan Brown novel. Well worth the 15 minute train trip.

They are playing the Li:rolleyes:ns; anything can happen.

ETA I agree with the comments about the location of the Marriott; if I am here again I will stay here or at the NH next door. Pulitzer (which otherwise would have come into consideration) was something like 90€ per night more expensive for my stay here.
