In exactly a week's time, my plane will have just taken off from Albuquerque International Airport, called, I gather, Sunport...
Exactly one week from now, I will be on my way to the airport here in Tulsa to catch my flight to Chicago.
I probably won't have any makeup on.
I'll put it on during the flight.
We're gonna contribute to making OHare the most active airport in the US - again. ha ha ha...
A week from now I'll be exactly where I am right now.
Ok, I'm getting excited now.

I understood 1871. That was your fire. But 1908?
Ah! Google suggested the street name change, but I knew this couldn't be the connection.

Munich?
Since the five daily connections to Munich have done so until now, I'll hope, it will do as good next week (70 passengers plane, btw - sometimes Lufthansa uses a bigger jet).

You know what I mean: Borussia Dortmund, Borussia Mönchengladbach, and whatever else might pass for a football team where you're from.
I'll only stay there litterally minutes on transit and certainly can avoid any contact to the aboriginals there.
.... and next week, in a little more than one hour, I'll set my feet o American soil
I wonder what kind of jet lag - if any - that you'll have Walter. I usually get it when I go to Europe, but not when I have flown back. I think it varies for different people.
It looks like I'll be seeing Evanston with my old pals shortly after I check in to my hotel on Thursday, and will get back sometime that evening. If I don't talk with you before Friday a.m., we can meet at my hotel lobby, as you suggested on an earlier post - I think it is about four blocks to the architectural tour office, and there is a bakery next door to that place. I seem to remember we should be there by 9:15, but I'd like to be a little earlier to get whatever official ticket they hand out when you check in.
I'll check back with you, we can pick a time to meet.
Hmmm, we could also possibly go real early to the Millenium Grille, or whatever it's called, if we happen to be awake...
I'd better check the hours and distance for that.
No problems with whatever you'll decide, osso.
OK... will check later. We are tearing out carpet at my new old house today and I'll probably be pulling the computer plug soon...

The
Millenium Park Grill isn't open for breakfast. That's true for a lot of restaurants in the Loop that are only open for lunch and dinner.
This time next week, I'll prolly be muttereing angrily, looking for a place to park.
Who is the most unpopular man in football (soccer)?
-He's the guy in the crowd at Borussia Muenchengladbach FC who stands up and shouts
"Gimme a B...."
Mine is "give me a g...."

Good for you, we're really savage.
I'm off to Saint Louis in a few minutes, and I'm not sure if I'll be online much. If there are severe changes in who comes and who doesn't feel free to edit my list by yourself.
See you all!
