Under eighteen miles from Congonhas to Guarulhos - last week TAM was having problems getting their crews to work at Guarulhos, SP's international airport, as the demonstrators were closing down the expressways in Sampa by physically blocking them with live demonstrators. They solved it by flying in some crews from Congonhonas, the in-city airport that serves as the ponte area/air bridge to RJ and as well as other closer destinations.

Just came across this from 2004, when Stewart went on Crossfire & proceeded to disassemble the show & its idiot hosts.

I can see it now...

Aw, baby, she means nothing to me. And the burrow was so dark, I thought it was you! Honest!! Here, have another cranberry.

Yes: the mortgage and the good china.

I completely agree with the thrust of this article. Expectation can supersede virtually all else. I have played this little game several times with folks who can afford expensive wines and others who just like to drink wine. A well chosen $12 bottle of wine was enjoyed just as much as a $100 bottle of wine when no mention of price was made. We may as well revert to something similar to Robbie the robot sampling the "rotgut" provided by the cook (Forbidden Planet) and then produced gallons and gallons of the stuff. Best regards, RA1

As noted here recently: Verbal? Oral? Lingual? Labial? Gutteral? So many choices!

Younger is better, isn't it? Best regards, RA1

I remember driving through Versailles, which they pronounce as ver-sales, one day in late April and being struck by the sheer beauty of the bluegrass countryside. A cute blond I used to see ended up living in Lexington.

In this case he may have married an Indian, as in native american, although the could have had the indian heritage himself considering his early American heritage. Just know that he fell out of the clan and shows in Nashville 1850 census, later showing in Fulton. Also, one of his sons, my gr.grandfather was contacted by the Feds in the 1920s regarding availability of land on a OK Reservation if he wanted it.

I thought black sheep made all the money (even if some of it illegally). I go to Kentucky a lot on business, mostly small towns in eastern KY but sometimes to such as Louisville. The terrain is pretty and I find the folks to be friendly. I used to think KY was just some place to overfly on the way from TN to elsewhere. Funny how your perspective and opinion changes when you spend some time somewhere, isn't it? Best regards, RA1

KY is littered with the remains of my ancestors, mostly Bourbon Co, going all the way back to 1705 when it was still part of Virginia. Some of them were land-wealthy having settled the area. My gr.gr.grandfather was a stone mason in Fulton -- not so wealthy. I suspect he may have been a black sheep.

Glad you made it through the trials and tribulations of the move relatively unscathed and only a few battle scars. Hope you enjoy your new "home". Kentucky is a beautiful state. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4R64qNv9RYI
