Brian, Jen, I consider that a date.

Whoa! You'd think I'd written about my plane trip to China in first class with my 2-month old. Or maybe I'm just the Sam Hempill du jour.

I truly apologize to anyone I've offended with the content or style of my post. If I could give you back the 6 minutes it took to read, I would. I was simply trying to add some color to what otherwise (to me at least) could have been a fairly uninteresting trip report ("We stayed at the Fairmont. It was nice. We ate at Border Grill. It was good. Does anyone have any questions for me?").

If my posts offend you, don't feel obligated to read them in the future. And feel free to ignore any advice I put on this forum. There are plenty of posts that I don't take to heart.

And John, don't worry, I won't stop posting trip reports. And I won't change my style of living or writing. Our next trips are to Toronto in April and Belgium and Paris in May. Can you guess why we chose Belgium and Paris? For the beer and wine, of course!

Okay Brian, Marth, and Jen, I will go out and suce with you guys!!! The rest of you CANNOT EVEN BE SERIOUS!!! My God, someone talks about drinking and you knuckleheads fall off of the wagon, I mean handle! Jez, simmer down, not everyone that drinks has a "problem."

Brian, you're getting quite a harem there for your drinking party. (Maybe, that's Brian's secret--drinking is a good way to meet women!)
Question for Sarah: What does "suce" mean?

"suce" = sauce. cheers.

Brian,
Well, I for one enjoyed hearing about your trip - and I live in So. Ca.! I remember you asking about places to go for the weekend, and it's always nice to hear what advice (if any) people took and what they enjoyed doing!

As to the drinking? Well, who cares!?! When I went to Cancun, I was wasted almost every day! It's a vacation, folks. You know, time to have a little fun, relax, enjoy?

Good trip, Brian, and I hope if I every get to Atlanta you can offer me advice on where/what to do!

There's nothing worse than being on vacation in L.A. with a Puritan! Why don't you other folks hurry out to Salt Lake City and let Brian enjoy a couple drinks to relax. Give me a break!

Sometimes you have enough of the trips to Grandparents or the beach with the kids. When you get a chance to take a vacation with your mate, and can enjoy food, drinks, and OTHER adult activities, I say go for it. Sounds like you had a lot of fun.
