That was the Best Apology Ever Written.

On second thoughts, it wasn't. But I'm not going to apologise. I never apologise. I'm sorry, but that's the kinda guy I am...

You are the best non-apologizer. Ever.

Ha, ha! :lol: My wife is Swiss/Italian and after telling someone that she is half Swiss, gets asked, too often to believe, whether most of the people in Sweden are blonds. She used to point out that Sweden and Switzerland are different countries but now she no longer bothers.
I wonder what Amar would think of this.

That's one of the big problems with Geneva. All the Swedes.

No false sense of modesty. In my opinion, L.E.'s was the best damn review ever written. I have a Burke al-pro. His review made me want a couple more.

No apology necessary!!!

But that was a cute post.

Last night Dan asked me if I'd ever been to Birmingham. Since we have been trying to come up with a Fall vacation destination, I found that an odd question (Birmingham?). He said there is some work-related thing going on there, but he doesn't have to go. He just wondered if I'd been there. Well, if he DID have to go, I'd go with him and we'd pop over to see you and your whistles...er, family.

Tell us something.: I used to be a regular then I took up the bassoon. Bassoons don't have a lot of chiff. Not really, I have always been a drummer, and my C&F years were when I was a little tired of the drums. Now I'm back playing drums. I mist the C&F years, though.

This is why I had such trouble speaking French when I was in Vevey. They're Swedes.

That, plus my French is more like French-sounding English.

Now THAT is a beautiful review! Sweet, simple, and to the point on a topic near and dear to many of us.

Yep. That's the part I took note of.
I'm no longer trying a new posting paradigm
