Really, it would be safer to replace the street with a couple of rail lines. If I was in Deutschland, I could take a bus or a train the 20 k to work tonight, or I could buy a Smart car that gets 67 miles to the gallon. I found both of the rural regions I visited in Baden-Wurttemberg und NRW to be laced with bicycle/hiking paths. I also found the bus to be expensive as it cost me 5 DM to go less than 10 k. Fortunately the drivers made change, as they do not in the Twin Cities. I found biking in Chur, Switzerland to be too hectic for me, with all the traffic, pedestrians und other bikes. The Swiss driver always seems prepared to stop, which I would not expect in Amerika. To me, walking in front of a running car is like walking in front of a loaded bazooka, I do not rely on the caution or courtesy of the driver. Some of the bikers that I see in Madison, Wisconsin either have nerves of steel or some kind of death wish.

Right !! "Prairie Oysters" always have been, and remain, testicles from the castration !! Dave Ross

Amen to your thoughts on "narrower" streets, Klaus !! I think that "political correctness" is a pox on our modern society !! ~Dave Ross

Heinz: I TOLD you the bottle was upstairs, and I'd just gotten up, etc. :-))) But it's GOOD, regardless of how one spells it!! And I"M the one who's going to a Russian restaurant this evening and will be singing Russian songs with the entertainers there !! I hope my head is clearer than it was early this AM !! :-))) Dave Ross

OK, Karin: I can't refure the "library" rationale: I spent a lot of time at the "library" too -- except where I went to school that was a euphemism for the local beer emporium. And I'm responding with a :-)))) Dave Ross

Regina is still there. : -) I'm not sure of the population but I believe it's about 300,000. It's a thriving farming community and the govenment seat of Saskatchewan.

But only from the cows that have it, Ralf !! :-))) ]Dave

Here in New Jersey we buy a delicious Blood and Tongue loaf made by Thumanns. Their Head Cheese is also very good.

This is available at WWW.GermanDeli.com look under beverages.

Hi all, Can anyone tell me if there is a list for discussing books, specifically books on German history? Thanks for your help. Chris, Calgary, Ab

When we first came to this country back in 1952 my dad would continue these walking tours he was used to. We'd walk all over Philadelphia and Fairmount Park it would be right after Church for the rest of the day. We'd take lunch with us. The trolley cars would pass us. It was one hell of a trip to Fairmount Park that I can tell you and the trip there was boring b ut once in the park I could run around and climb on the statues and we could rent a canoe and life was fun. Fred

That would be terrific. Has your aunt passed away? I am dreading the day that my aunt departs this earth too. She will be 93 in August and I am sure that her years left are limited. I will see her in three weeks. I haven't let her know that I am coming yet. You stay safe... Gail

I don't have anything agains hiking and biking trails, providing they don't interfere with traffic flow. Here in Houston, our very liberal mayor, has decided it is time to install bicycle lanes on some of the major streets. Some of these streets were normal, two lane roads wide enough for two cars. Now we have a three foot wide bike lane on each side of the road and the automobile lanes are three foot narrower. Not only does this create a hazard for two cars passing each other, but I wouldn't give a plug nickel for the safety of a bike rider that might be in the lane. So we endager the bike rider and the driver just to be politically correct.

Hi Dianne, Actually that's what I had meant but my email wasn't clear. : -) sorry for the confusion. The calf brain was another situation. Chris, Calgary, Ab. ps where in Sask are you?

Actually, here in Saskatchewan "Prairie oysters" REALLY refer to the testicles obtained when the young calves are castrated and not to brains. I grew up in the midst of cattle country here and that is what Prairie oysters always meant in my neck of the woods anyway. - Dianne Christine Bailey wrote: > > In Saskatchewan, Canada their call Prairie Oysters. : -).

Are you sure more walking isn't the answer? You might try it and see. An 82 year old woman finished third from last--and ahead of two women almost half her age--in the Avon event I mentioned. Start off slowly, 10 minutes a day (MOST days of the week--that's 3-4) and increase by 10 minutes each week. In six weeks you might be amazed at the changes in your body and how you feel. --Besides, it will give you more stamina to stay on your feet longer in the kitchen. :-) --And you'll be able to eat more! Next week's long training walk for me will be a 10-miler. But last year I could hardly walk a 100 yds without my calfs tightening up and cramping. Everything about my life is improved since then.
