Flight leaves Heathrow 6:00 am local time. This is the start of a month-long vacation for me, and I'm not overly excited about it but looking forward to not working. Sorry I've not been around as much... been a bit depressed RE: family stuff but still having fun at times. It's life, ya know?

A few notes:
- Fantasy football draft is scheduled for Wednesday, September 7, at 9:00 pm EDT. Since my money's league commish has scheduled a live draft for the same night, I'm going to have to miss our league. Sorry guys. As compensation, I will create the ultimate autopick list and bombard all of you with trade requests Thursday morning. It's only fair.

- epa and swiatecki have info RE: my Labor Day Sunday BBQ in their email inboxes. If anyone else is interested (f4df: didn't have your email, Lambchop? Daystar? Borg?), PM me. Sunday afternoon in Toledo, Ohio might be like being nowhere at al, but at least I'll be there.

I think that's it.

Colin, here's hoping your holiday is relaxing. Cheers dude [clink!].

A month long vacation sounds awesome. You're gonna have a blast I'm sure.

Have a great time! An x girlfriend who I still keep in contact with stayed in Chalkidiki a few years back and had a great time.

I think she said she was going topless, so enjoy yourself!!

Have fun and use a LOT of sunscreen.

Greece is supposed to be absolutely gorgeous no matter where you go(my best friend is married to a man who is from there and they go there ALL the time).

Stay safe too!

Hey, Colin.

You'll have an absolute ball in halkidiki & Greece, in general.

Make sure you try the grilled octopus -- ask for it at the tavernas. Just make sure it's grilled (not pickled).

Also, you'll have to sample some of the Greek music, there. Very good.


We're going to Greece next summer. It's been 3 years since we've been.


Bon voyage,

audiobill

Why are you smiling? Being on the run from Mr John Law is not any such thing as a trip to Cleveland. And you are not going to Cleveland. Thus, you very well could be on the lam. Don't blow it if you are, either, with a bad poker-face.

Not having your email address, that would be difficult. :wink: Sent you a PM instead.

Greece was fantastic. Got some sun. Was the Dancing Guy (sans katie's T-shirt) at a wedding reception. Read 4 books (just under 2000 total pages) in 4.5 days. Got back to find my only blood-related uncle died earlier this week. I'm doing alright and mom's (it was his bro) hanging in well. Just another thing to pile on the stack I guess. Crazy.

I sent it a month ago. Perhaps there's a time limit in the outbox or something. *shrug* Sorry I missed you when back in OH.
