Audi.


Every morning in October has been a twelve step program and I'm looking forward to a few weeks of life without an alarm clock, without a clock at all. In a matter of hours I will shutdown this computer, stow it in a safe place, zip the luggage closed and begin a journey to Europe. This adventure, free of the Internet, will involve planes, trains, automobiles, and a ship traveling across five countries. So goodbye The Internets, twelve hour days, and constant phone meetings, I'm going on vacation and I suggest you do the same.

While I'm out consider taking this time to riot in the streets, participate in democracy, and have a Jello Pudding Pop while watching Venture Bros.

Nice. Enjoy your Eurotrip. I have about a week and a half till my wife and I head to San Francisco where she's presenting a poster at the annual AIChE meeting and I'll be enjoying 10 days off of work. It's definitely time for a vacation.

No internet? Sounds awful

Safe journeys, Greg. Bring us back something cool and kitschy!

I could use a vacation like yours right about now. Sigh.

Europe is ubercool, but with the whole dollar vs. euro thing, also godawfully expensive for us working class American code monkeys. Or are you going the hippie hitchhiking/hosteling route?

Have a good time! This doesn't have anything to do with Audi's Euro-delivery program, does it?

5000, G. Enjoy.

Enjoy that vacation; 4 or 5 kids puts such junkets on hold for about 20 to 30 years.

I hope you don't miss your flights without the aid of a clock. Might I suggest a sundial?

And I'm not allowed to go on vacation right now. Jerk.

Have a great time...and remember that this is your chance to catch a real football match.

Actually, the Venture Bros. season just ended, and it's killing me. Doc and Jackson best not make us wait again for the next season.

(yes, I'm kind of a fanatic)

Was this post in response to the "My God what time is it out there" question?

Have fun, relax and enjoy yourself. I feel like I've been on vacation the last week, but on the other hand, not so much...

Enjoy your holiday! If you stop by in Edinburgh or Glasgow, feel free to drop me a line.

Do they have The Internets in Europe? Has Al Gore let them use it yet?

We eagerly await your return from vacation to hear your take on Rumsfeld's resignation. Can't wait!

Ah vacation! I just booked a New Year's trip to an all-inclusive resort in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. And I hate all-inclusive resorts. However, since I'm a project manager I tend to project manage while on vacation making sure that every day is chock-full of interesting, off the beaten path things to do. But not this year. I want to lay on the beach and do absolutely nothing and let the resort plan it all for me. It is so essential to disconnect from it all at least once per year. Hope you're having a great time in Europe disconnecting!
