At some point in the future I’m going to pop over to Japan for a few days vacation. This will be the furthest east I have travelled (or west, but I haven’t ever crossed the Pacific, and Japan is certainly east of Germany) and there are a large number of things about the trip that […] As most of you know, I’m not a huge fan of smoking for a myriad of reasons, but I have to confess that the geniuses behind Marlboro cigarette advertising campaign have caught my attention. In fact, by some measure, their campaign must be a success because I’ve had several conversations about it. The first wave […] I’ll soon be taking vacation and heading across the pond to my native land. While there I have a number of exciting activities planned, friends to see, and vacation to vacate. As a part of the vacation, I’ve decided it’s high time to knock off my 48th United State, Rhode Island. It will leave me […] I have no net access at home and I’ve been feeling lazy—something about moving does that. Suffice it to say, my furniture is in the new place and, as of this writing, I am about 80% unpacked. I have all my clothing to put away, and a lot of dishes to wash. I expect to […] Wow… it’s 9pm, Sunday night, and I am tuckered out. It’s been one heck of a fantastic weekend–Friday’s work concluded with dinner at a fantastic restaurant on the edge of Rotterdam. That evening, after I got home, I went to bed–and I must have crashed hard, because I did not hear the SMS that I […] Dear DB & SNCF, Ok, so my train from Frankfurt to Paris-Est (ICE 9556) is running approximately 22 minutes late. I could be upset about this, or the fact that I had to cross platforms at Saarbrücken to board a different train set because of a “technical fault” with my train, but I am not. […] Saturday night was a big night for me. After a couple months of having nothing to do locally on the weekends, beyond watching my own movies, this past Saturday night I had TWO parties to attend. One was a housewarming party in Jena, and the other was “Gays In Space” at Weimar’s Kunst Turm. As […] It was as we were leaving the Lesbian Duo “Mosh Mosh” concert that my friend said, “I don’t know where I am.” Helpfully, one of the cute young men standing outside the bar/concert venue told him he was in Weimar. It was really an excellent evening—We’d started at the Barking Dogs United: Size Matterz gallery […] One of the best things about the States are the local restaurants where the waitresses call you “honey” or “sugar” and know what you want to eat before you even open your mouth—plus, if you’re a coffee drinker, keep your cup filled up to the brim (no such thing as a free refill in Europe) […] Public Typewriter Originally uploaded by elmada. From Amsterdam Schiphol Airport to Weimar is a long trip. My scheduled train left Schiphol at something like 13:50 with a short ride to Duivendrecht, where I connected to an ICE to Frankfurt Hbf and an onward connection to Weimar. Currently I am scheduled to get to […] |
