Peter, Too bad, I was going to introduce you to my favorite Cuban Cigars ...

are the dates cast in stone? if so, what are they again? i've been too busy here with a merger and new computer system to visit here.

The thought of missing this rare opportunity to help prop up a communist regime is nearly enough to make me reconsider. If you had some Afghani opium, as well, I would be forced to attend.

I think the date was Sep 10 if i remember correctly

I'll be watching AC and Westjet websites closely for a cheap flight, so far $280 before fees pretty costly for a 2 day weekend.

I can't afford to do drugs. This is a real exchange I had with a friend a few years ago, when he tried to get me to try Cocaine:

Friend: "Craig, you've GOT to try this stuff, it is GREAT ! It will even enhance your personality !

Craig: "You already think I'm an a$$hole, why would you want to enhance that ?"

As for propping up a dictatorship, I look at this as giving the Cuban people a taste of pure capitalism, and hope for a better future through freedom....

Looks like we're going to be going to Europe instead of Canada. So if the date is flexible, ignore me!

Oh, I agree. That's where the libertarian comes through, eh? I'll smoke what I damn well please!

Wait a second, you put a sad face in the same line as "going to Europe"? [slap slap] Snap out of it!

yeah, no lie! Ken, make sure to swing by Belgium. oh yeah, and bring us back some beer while you're at it!

Well, my wife just started talking about it... I caught her looking at the Eurail site. I knew she wanted to go, I just wasn't expecting it this fall (just after the Mexico trip!)
