Goedenavond Alejandro!
Hey, sorry I did not get to connect with you & Kwikvrouw when I was in Europe. When I left Italy, I did fly into Schiphol for a night, then on to Den Haag, etc. but my schedule got hosed because I booked British Airways from Naples to AMS and BA was of course on strike.
There will be other times, I generally pass through AMS when I am over there and look forward to meeting you then.
Tot ziens, Steve
p.m. ... kidding ... Hi Mel!
Cool. At the moment I have a pretty good confidence level I will be there. Hope it works out!
Pitt was da bomb ... seriously looking at Boston, so perhaps then/there!
BJ,
Nope, same name. Although very quiet lately, I am still here, still holding my FLD's, and still CapHillGuy. [But speaking of recent name changes, the one that realy makes sense to me -- from what I observed in Pitt -- is that of the new Hurricane Rick ... karaoke animal!]
Pittsburgh was a great Monkinar on many levels, made me think of our fun @ blizzard-filled Richmond. Missed you in Pitt and look forward to seeing you at a future Monkinar or otherwise.
Hope all is well with you ... and BillyJean!!
Steve
I am with ya! There just are certain shows that left an impact on me like that: Miami Vice, MASH, Bay Watch ...
I stopped keeping track because I kept getting it wrong!
Happy Birthday Sid!!
LOL ... maybe that was it, sometimes i am not sure if it is real or just in my head
EX, hope you have a great time!! I spent March near where you are (Marco Island, about 15 miles south) with my Mother; really enjoy that part of Florida.
Everglades rock too!! Not sure what you are planning there, but if you have time you may enjoy going on an AirBoat ride through the Everglades if you have never done it ... very cool, crocs, rare birds, and much more ... except the Miami Vice theme song kept playing in my head as we were speeing through the Everglades There are plenty of tour operators offering options if you are interested.
Welcome KV!! I am so happy to hear it all went well. I did not want to mention the tragic events of last year, with hopes it would not forever affect this wonderful, joyous and special celebration. I too am very happy you have your Queen Day back!
Cap
Alejandro, I know you will have a great time at the DE Monkinar, enjoy!! And to you & Kwikwrouw: Ik wens jullie allemaal een prettige Koninginnedag! (I am wishing them a pleasant Queen's Day! ... there is not significantly more Dutch in my toolbox, though )
Good morning Densters!
Excellent Alejandro, marked both you & Kwikvrouw too!!
I am scheduled Positano to AMS on Friday, May 28, likely staying that night @ Schiphol Sheraton. Weekend is booked in Den Haag, then to Brussels, so (tentaviely) perhaps a meeting with the Dutch EIGH Contingent on the 28th? As we get closer, I will PM you both to arrange.
You got it, will be fun to get together, have a few drinks, discuss progress on EIGH and related topics Tot ziens!
Utrecht!! Bummer ... until recently I was splitting my time between DC VS & Eindhoven, with the majority of time there. Would have been fun to form an EIGH/FLD social club to get together socially, since you are only 45 mins away. I am in Den Haag late May, so will keep you in mind in case it can work out to meet.
Probably so Sir ... I just always assume I did someething wrong and am in trouble
LOL ... good times Sir!
Yup, from my Mel observations, it is clear smart money adheres to the Horace Rumple (Rumpole of the Bailey) philosophy: She Who Must Be Obeyed!! ... surprised some (ahem, Monk) seem to fight this reality here
Smart perhaps ... self-preservation, maybe ... all i know is i've observed what happens to monk when he does not heed you
Excellent, then will look forward to it when it happens!
Already done Sis ... heeded your warning yesterday!
Kewl for me too! (90% sure, at least, but really do plan to be there, just have to sort out a few things.)
Yeah, bummer, but looking forward to Pittsburgh!!!!! And as previously discussed, if I decide to charter a private jet, will be more than happy to let you hitch a ride :)
Wish I could but no, I will be in Italy for a wedding.
How ironic that with all the talk re NJ I cannot make THAT event! And all the more so because it is in New Brunswick, hometown of Rutgers, from which I received 2 of my degrees. Ah life at times ....
Completely agree, whenever it occurs am sure it will be a hoot! Everything in time ...
Will do! And please don't forget to let me know when you have a NJ trip planned. Hopefully we can get something set with Sidney.
I am doing great, thanks! Hope same is true for you. Wish I could make Portland, but unable. (I am in process of making plans to vacation in general area, however, either in August or September!) RE coffee: kewl, Summit is a place close to my home, as I think we discussed; grew up in Motown/Mendham area, H.S. in Madison @ Bayley Ellard, etc. ... say hey to a fellow Jerseyite, hope you enjoy!
LOL ... it is a Richmond Monkinar thing :) ... Morning Connie, Monk, Sir, and Den!
Hey Woody, all is good here & hope same for you and your family. Re Pitt: I booked rooms at the hotel in Pitt as a hedge, since our favorite truck driver said rooms were getting scarce. Will confirm when back in early June for sure, but odds are better that 50-50 I can make the Advanced Monkinar. Hope so, sounds like you are going too. Kewl, because it seems I enjoy being around people haters -:) Cap
:) Thx.
See, that is an example of why lawyers get a bad name ok there are probably a few other reasons too!! Sadly deserved all too often ... that is one reason why I quit :)
BTW, somewhere along the way I think I saw you are retiring and going to have some great folks coming over to help you celebrate. Very jealous of the fun you are all going to have. You so deserve it, though, have a blast Congratulations in advance!!!
Time will tell, if not there, hopefully not too far off in the future then. Seems like Richmond was soooo long ago ...
Back at you BillJack! I have missed your prose, talk about a superb, creative wordsmith. Visits have been spotty, but hoping when I get back early June I can be more present. Speaking of which I hope to make the Pitsburgh Advanced Monkinar later in June, you?
ctay, howdy sir!
so there i was, trying to get caught up on the 1,000's of posts i am behind from just from the past week alone and voila!!! a request for CapHillGuy's services! LOL ... anyway, so the post you referenced is deleted ... bummer, got me curious now ... but fact it is gone may not matter, though, because as good as I am wordsmithing, still not sure I can translate something so that my Congressional neoghbors will understand it!
That aside, still here, holding strong, and buying all FLD's here & there to support the group!
Cap
Congrats BJ and thanks for lending such a capable hand with the Board!
Cap
Ash, a bit behind reading posts so this is a bit late, but my heart -- and prayers -- go out to you and your wife. Just truly sorry to hear this sad news and hoping your wife is ok health-wise. With you (as is the Den) brother.
Cap
Definitely!! ... I love "or" questions :)
LOL ... missed you and the Densters BJ and happy to be back!
Been AWOL for 5 weeks but back now, sorry Sir! ... and re Connie/Sid supposedly knowing you are harmless: always thought it smart to beware someone contending that!! Considering some of the fiction you post with the Den, one could easily worry about what else goes on behind those fashionable glasses :)
Hey Billy Jack!!! Hope all is well with you.
Sooooo, I am missing the point of the video vis-a-vis NJ!!! I watched the whole thing trying to figure it out ... came up empty-handed. Only conclusion: gratuitous swipe against NJ. Do you really want to pick a fight with Connie & Sidney?? Braver man than me
