      C'mon!, that's nothing, why when *I* was a boy, I used to walk 15 hours, each way, up hill, in -40 degree weather, against the wind, until I would pass out from exhaustion and forget where I was going to (that was the excuse I always gave for my poor attendance at school, never really seemed to work though). :) ¡El diablo está en mis pantalones! ¡Mire, mire!

      School !! - Pure Luxury ! - when I was a boy we had nout bout a bench under a tree, and did our learnin in sun, rain OR snow .. our Da would whip us once in the am just to teach us who's boss, wether we deserved it or not. lol, good luck putting the trip together - looks like I might make it to Boston for a week in July, but its 18 hours flight time (at least, not counting delays at LAX), so I doubt I'll make it to the Big Apple...

            Anyone in the NYC area interested in some kind of get together in Manhattan within in the next couple of weeks? I was thinking it might be cool to get together for beers, maybe a movie (I am paricularly interested in either Catwoman - can't beat Halle Berry in black PVC and heels - or the Chronicles of Riddick). Any other suggestions are most welcome, I have no idea how we go about organizing something like this. I work right near where the WTC towers were, any place around Manhattan would be great. ¡El diablo está en mis pantalones! ¡Mire, mire!

                      Heh, I like the 1600 mile stretch that only requires merging, not actual turns. Clearly I spend too much time in Seattle, I could actually picture the route for the first 8 steps of the trip. David
