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.

Ah! Google suggested the street name change, but I knew this couldn't be the connection.

Hey Walter, are you sure that little bitty plane can reach
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).

Have a safe flight -- but you want to be careful with those natives in Munich! In particular, you want to keep a low profile about any allegiance you might have to Prussian -- what do you call it? -- Leibesübungen. 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.

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.

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.

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...."

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! Smile
