you know there is a sad story coming

Above is a picture of Carlton - explaining how "my" car happened to get a $500 ticket. "My" car parked in a handicap space. Bad car. (Bad Carlton)

Ordered up a new computer today. Well, actually a refurb from eBay. It is another Vista machine. But, I hope I can install XP on it. The drivers exist. Hope it arrives on Monday. (OK all you techies - its a Fujitsu U810.) More later on the new computer.

Two weeks from right now, I'll be flying to Europe. Have day one planned. At the airport - catch the train to Brussels. In Brussels, catch the train to Luxembourg. In Luxembourg - chatch the train to Metz. In Metz - find a hotel room. Eat. Sleep. Come up with a plan for day two on day two.

Why Metz? We lived there in my smallkidtime. I went to first and second grade in Metz. James remembers an unexploded bomb in our basement. I remember our neighbor raised rabbits. He also gutted them out back and hung the little dead critters up by their feet.
