Hey Darren.... could you wait that long? It would be great if we could go together - California wouldn't know what hit it! "No, it's not another earthquake - it's those two Aussie cowboys!" Image

Not a problem, Greg. I'd be delighted if you could 'babysit' them for me. Fewer things for my son and his drunken mates to trash while I'm away! .... be even better if you could come....

However, you might say hello to my mum who lives in California now (if she wouldn't be in Russia at the time, of course)...

Not sure about the dead fish, Sheena (I'm not heavily into seafoods), but the others look tempting. What's in the bottles? I'd be delighted to say 'gday to your mother, Sheena. Let me know where she is and I'll see if we can work it out.

Seems to be some interest from the NY area. I'm going to buy a map of the US today so I can sort out where all you guys are.

'Shuffle off to Buffalo' sounds good!

Aitch: She's in Albany, near Berkeley, Bay area... but as i said before, she might actually be here at the time you'll be in the States, not sure about it.
This is NOT dead fish in fact, it's the national gourmet item called "vobla" (Caspian roach), best with beer (albeit really doesn't look like, but i'm absolutely sure that's what was meant)...
What's in the bottles... huh... it's coriander vodka & pop vine, to be taken together as a mixture... 8-)

As a fellow Central, IL native (like Lindsay and Brian) I'd like to extend an invite through our neck of the cornfield. Was it mentioned that we have horseshoes and beer?

Aitch if you come to Michigan over Labor Day weekend, Sept. 4th, you can walk the Mighty Mac.

We also have this.

Plus the Henry Ford Museum which has not only automotive history but everything to do with American life plus the industrial revolution. These should help quench your engineering desires.

Aitch, for sure though, go to the falls! I just talked to my grandma.. she's getting me a ticket to go back to Buffalo in early 2006. I mentioned you doing your trip and she said to keep in contact with you and we could go to the falls.

I've lived by them most of my life, so they're nothing that spectacular to me, but to you.. I dunno. I'm sure you'd like it though. And by then I'd have two Ricks for you to see. Image

Sounds fine to me, Nate, but are you sure you want to be seen hanging around with a grey-haired old fart? Image
