Damn. That is Awesome(TM).

Only thing that might be more beautiful is NZ - and I think you've been there.

Neither mental readjustment nor castration sounds particularly pleasant. :-:

Be sure to eat at Aux Anciens Canadiens. Expensive, but the food is fantastic. I think I had Moose in Blueberry sauce, which was very tasty. There are also tons of places in the old city that serve a million different varieties of crepes (sweet and savory).

That sounds fabulous. Quebec City has been on my list for a long time. Maybe we'll get there sometime this year. Given the average airfares I've seen there, it might be a good use for some of our DL miles we need to burn.

Yawn. I'm bored.

If any boxer has a specialty in DC power, let me know ASAP!

Haven't had to deal with that since I took the 8 hour FE exam

Ah - even I'm Hertz #1 Gold 5* and have never received (nor desired) a Chrysler Sebring.

I got stuck with one once. Beggers can't be too chosey when a client calls at 8 AM and asks if you can be in Farifax by noon.

Yeah, but if I can do a lot of MSP-ORD connections it won't be so bad. I can just about hold my breath for that entire flight.

This is the view of CO planes at MSP

Is Montreal the city in Canada that is recommended? Looking at you ALCO. I have been looking at Quebec and Montreal and Montreal looks like it has more interesting stuff.

I've heard Quebec is better for a couples weekend especially if you get to stay in the fancy hotel that they have a minuture of at Epcot.

I guess if the alternative is an Uplander, the Sebring doesn't seem all that bad. But it still remains one of the worst cars I've driven in my life. I will do just about anything to not have one as a rental.

Looks just like the CO planes at BNA Terminal A.

I had a week where I had a horrendously-underpowered Nissan Versa, designed-for-shorter-people VW Beetle, and simply :rolleyes: Dodge Caliber.

Man vs. Food is on right now in Austin - tail end of it.

Sebrings are crimes against humanity. I had one in MCO two years ago, and the only rental that beat it in crap factor was the Kia Redondo that my fiancee and I had somewhere. My mother has a Sebring convertible and if you are over six feet tall Is Not Possible to see out of the horribly raked windshield.

Drive a new Beetle - design means people our size have to guestimate speed.
