blog virgin

OMG getting into this blog was mind bloggaling!!

Tim in Italy....a frightful thought! He will need his 3 female escorts to keep him on the straight and narrow.

Mark the date on your calendars!! This will be a historic change in Italy's economy....because after Tim is there for a few months he will have talked (and talked and talked)to 1/2 of the population about the wonders of beer and I suspect the vintners will start growing hops instead of grapes.

I suggest to Char that she introduce cheese into every conversation that starts on the beer topic. Then Tim will get distracted from Beer and get into the cheese mode.....and perhaps something will come of it. Tim will become an Italian cheesehead and bring back useful cheesemaking skills to the US of A.

Should Char not take my suggestion.....or if Tim wanders away from her significantly long....it will be beer,beer,beer and the Italians will start converting longstanding wineries into many new breweries with label names such as DogPizzaHead 60 minute IPA, or TuscanBuskin Doublebach. We shall see.

YOU DID IT, BECK!!!! Oh dear, you are so right about Tim, talking, beer, & cheese. It's a good thing Italians love conversation; I'm afraid that Tim may decide to stay in Italy!!

Don't worry; I won't let the grapes go to hops, not that Italy would let that happen anyway!

Exactly 2 weeks from today we leave!!! See you on Saturday for the Detwiler bon Voyage fest -- actually, that should be Buon Viaggio feste!

I called Mandy and left a message, spoke to Becky, called Lise and left a message and told her to call Dan, told Ike and Jake and Ashley. Loiuse is already coming. That about does it. I think we should have spagetti and chianti (and beer).


Nice pic...how's you do that?

I called DSL(again) and spent an hour at least on the phone but everything sems to be working correctly at this point. Hannah can do wireless while we have DSL.

I hope you can connect everything up in italy very easily.!!!!
