Am-Chau, the magazine showed up today! Thank you very, very much!
Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

I think your experiments with Wallaby Attraction Pheremone are starting to pay off.
SA, cool! I am in Athens. You are welcome to stay at my house, if you can stand the two-year-old.

If by stand you mean spoil, then yes.
Do you have any airline suggestions? I can't seem to find any cheap ones that fly in or around Athens. Is there another airport nearby?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Hee. Not as well as mine.

I'm reading the Harry Potter story written by our own lovely Fay, and now I'm curious again about the etymology of various British slang. I know what things like "for a game of soldiers", "you're pulled", and "big girl's blouse" mean, but why do they mean that? I dislike being baffled by my own language.

True. And I'm sure jimi (and moonlit) are happy about that.
SA, Athens is just really freaking expensive to fly into or out of. I don't think there are any direct flights to the other mainland airports, as they are tiny and only take tiny planes, but I will check. Olympic Air is usually the cheapest from the UK, but occasionally there are amazing deals from the bargain airlines.

Yeah, I noticed that as I was looking around. £200 round trip? Kind of really really high. I'll keep looking through. I was thinking late Feb.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
You know, Raq, whenever I hear about modern Athens I just hear about how smoggy it is.
Aside from the history, what else is going on there? Does it have cool theaters, bizarre telenovelas on Greek TV, a long tradition of hand-puppet porn, roaming gangs of maenaeds dancing to Italian gnocchi-pop?
What's the what in Athens?
