Is there a separate thread for the trip to Boston, or is it all here??

btw Mrs McTag and I have decided to go on a fly-drive to the States in the autumn, and the intention is to drive coast to coast.

So look out.

You're free to cheer for whomever you want, but I do not guarantee your safety. If your Braves partisanship draws the ire of the gathered multitudes, I'm afraid you're on your own.

joe,

Swimpy being a Braves fan is less embarrassing.
Some Cubs fans are embarrassed about their allegiance
and will probably leave Swimpy alone. Smile

I'm brave but not from Atlanta.
That should be fine, isn't it?

(No, joe, I didn't watch the Ochmoneks yet. [They play, btw, in the lowest possible league, something like 7th division; neighbouring Paderborn Untouchables are 2nd in 1st division.])

You're German; so when the going gets rough, Joe can probably plead insanity or something similar for you. Be sure to wear one of your "Bayern München" shawls just to be on the safe side.

JW -- are you ok with the Mambo Grill just before noon tomorrow? My train gets in at 11:25 -- I'll stop by joe's building on my way over. Could you get there a few minutes before noon to get a table?

Don't worry, Joe. I'll be very discreet. I'll only paint half of my face Smile

Well that really stirred up a storm of apathy.

It's the only real way to see the country thouh. McTag, You must let me know if and when you pass through Iowa. Northeast Iowa is beautiful in the Fall.

I saw your original post, McTag. I looked for littlek's Boston thread to give you a link. You had just posted on littlek's thread so I realized you found it on your own. (Chicago A2Kers are friendly and helpful.)
