I've had a chance to experience trying to use this board via dial-up (and outside of the country to boot). It blows. I've found the local internet cafe. 5€ for an hour. Sitting here in front of a window watching Finn hotties. Pretty cool place overall. You can't wallk half a block without finding a place that sells beer! The Europeans don't seem to be nearly as tight ass about a lots of things as Americans are. Took a boat over to Estonia yesterday. Tomorrow we head back to London for a couple of days. We're staying at a hotel in Picadilly Circus.

Wife's job. Sharon's former parent company is in Helsinki. She's been over here several times. This may be the last time since the GE buyout, so we decided to make it a joint trip. It's kinda cool, 'cause I get to do whatever I want during the daytime when she's at work. I was (and got a couple of pictures of) a pretty sharp early 911T in Estonia yesterday. I'll post them when I get back.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) If you have not already noticed Mika is real guru here making stripes. The name of the owner of that T3 is Tomi, but we call him Heebah (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rocking nana.gif) |
