“Very nice! I want to go.”

“A real time interface, wow!

“pathman, did you come into NYC already?
was it this past weekend?
or a different one?”

“Looks awesome Pathman! That's one place I'd love to visit. My wife has German and Swiss heritage.

By the way, the city I live in, Tell City, IN, is named after William Tell and was settled by Swiss settlers who made a living from logging and woodworking. Ever heard of the Tell City Chair Co.? There used to be a room of their furniture in the White House.

Great pics.”

“I passed through NYC. I got to my hotel at 6pm saturday, worn out from a long day traveling, and had to be at the airport at 630 the next morning. I had dinner at Sage's Dinner on Queen's Blvd with a beer and crashed. Next time!”

“Pathman. Thanks for those pics. So, you are a Sweitzer, eh? Glad you got to visit the old home place. Have fun.”

“We had our big town festival a couple of weeks ago John. How much beer you guys go through?

This year over 250 kegs consumed over 4 days.”

“We had (wonderful) neighbors who moved back to Switzerland. They sent us photos of the Alps out their backdoor. I'll have to take them up on their offer and visit.”

“Who is up? I get home from work, and Sassafras is offline, so there goes that conversation, and no one is on trail talk. I never get to TT when everyone is drinking and having a good ole time. I only get to TT when everyone is nursing hangovers and trying to work and TT at the same time. This really sucks.”

“I'm up for a few more...about to go to sleep so I can get up and get ready for the Maryland trip tomorrow.”

“I admit, I have spent some time at toe porcelain alter.

But somewhere around my 24th birthday, I finally figured out that that 5 hours of sugary shooters was probably the culprit.”

“Oooh, sugar and alcohol. I try hard to never mix the two.

Drinking tip for teens: Cinnamon twirls are not an appropriate chaser to a case of beer.”

“Calling Ralph again?”

“Hear is another tip:

Jose Quervo is not your friend.”
