Congrats Allen!
I just went through the wedding thing myself almost 2 years ago. Hard to believe it's been that long since I was in Seattle. Seems like it was only a couple of months ago.
Next thing you know, it will be the day before the wedding!
It is a joyous and special day for all involved. I wish you the very best.

Anyone ever rode the Acela Express:

I'm thinking about taking it from Philadelphia to NY,NY and back during the honeymoon and wondered if the extra money was worth it

Re: Pigs are Flying and Hell is a Bit Colder - 08/06/2004 4:40 PM
I've taken the Acela several times. It's a nice train and all, but I don't know if it is worth paying extra, especially for such a short trip. The regular metroliners are less money and get your there nearly as quick.
I like taking the Acela when I need to go down to DC, and work is paying for it. Then I stretch out with all my computer stuff on one of those tables. Regular Amtrak train will do you just fine...unless of course your some kind of train freak and want to be able to tell all your friends that you rode the high speed train (of course there are very few areas where it even gets moving).

Thanks for the info Is there another line you like when riding? I see quite a few, but have no idea which are rickety and which are nice just judging by amtrak's site

Re: Pigs are Flying and Hell is a Bit Colder - 09/29/2004 7:45 AM
yes, not gonna like stepping on the scale at the gym tomorrow 
tho we walked so much I think we kept it mostly off. One thing we both noticed about NYC is that there are relatively very few overweight people. We figured it was all the walking it seems most do there... DC had more hefty people it seemed, quite a bit more, but not quite as much as here in Texas.

Re: Pigs are Flying and Hell is a Bit Colder - 09/30/2004 6:16 PM
We rode the subway quite a bit the last couple days, I don't remember much overweight people
We ate at Carmines (twice) - some great chicken with mushrooms and marsala over angel hair pasta. Didn't really like the cheesecake tho, tasted more like custard than cheese. We ate at Carnegie Deli - great pastrami sandwich, tho the carrot cake some lady next to us insisted on sharing with us was a little dry. Both places served portions big enough for 2 people to share one order
We ate at the san gennaro feast - some great pizza, mozzareppa's and canoli. Plus we tried some street vendor's hotdogs on wall street, 56th and 5th (thos was late at night and some guy who billed himself as NYC's best Barry White impersonator had setup his own little concert - we ate the hotdog and sat and listened in front of the radio city music hall ). We had breakfast every morning at a place on 8th and 46th called 'rendevous on time square' - great little cafe run by possibly italian or hispanic brothers with excellent taste and very little money.
Our hotel in NYC was 1/2 block from time square, we really enjoyed the whole experience.
In philly we walked one afternoon to Geno's right before that Monday Night Football game between the eagles and the vikings, went through a lotta rough-looking neighborhoods to get there but it was worth it. Seemed like half of philly was there in their eagles jerseys heading to the game. They have some great restaurants and cafe's on market street as well. Loved the cheesesteak sandwich and cheesefries at geno's We walked back up 9th through the closing outdoor market and the fish smell was pretty strong 
We found a few great places in DC just by wandering around and stopping to try them out. The corner bakery was good, as was the fish market by the water (great chowder, most fish was to be taken home to cook tho), Clyde\'s in Georgetown - the food was good, tho service a little slow, they were swamped on a sunday night. The georgetown bagelry had great pizza and breakfast bagels.
We got to go to the cowboys/redskins game Monday night - we drove over there and by the time the game started the scalpers were selling tickets at face value There weren't a whole lotta cowboy fans there, but we sure enjoyed the win

Lol...at least it wasn't "Italian Cheesecake" which would have been all lumpy
Carmine's is a family-style place. A single order is meant to feed several people.
Carnegie is known for sandwichs that won't fit in your mouth.

Re: Pigs are Flying and Hell is a Bit Colder - 04/06/2006 4:44 PM
I've been planning to buy a new iMac since the intel inside models became available. I want to replace my 4 year old lamp-shaped iMac (actually, I won't be replacing it, just moving it to another room as a secondary machine).
What I really, really, really would like to do is get a MacBook Pro for Work rather than the cruddy Dell that I have to lug around now. I'm hoping that they come out with a 12" MBP in the near future - I love the size/weight/feel of my 12" PowerBook. That I would dual-boot on, as there are some Windows only programs that I have to use at work.
At home, there really isn't a reason for me to dual-boot, as I haven't had the need to use Windows for a few years.
