Thanks! :cheers:

The castle I know I'm going to visit for sure since we have some kind of fancy reception there on the first evening of the conference, so I'll try to enjoy the views. Sadly I'm not there on a friday so I'll miss the market.

Language should not be a problem since I already know a few words from Serbo-Croatian, but I don't know how many of them translate directly into Slovenian.

In case I wasn't clear, the market is every day IIRC. Just bigger on the weekend. I do know pivo means the same thing in most all Slavic languages.  :P

Does the hair loss gene sometimes skip a generation, or did he get that from the his mom's side of the family?

No idea, I was more interested in the Twin Otter rather than the royals.  :bowler:

No World Cup Hockey thread? Just as well, tournament is over.
Come writers and critics who prophesize with your pen, and keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again; but don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin, and there's no telling who that it's naming. For the loser now will be later to win, cause the times they are a-changin'. -- B Dylan

If you look closely, you can see where a Royal Marine sprained his ankle in '82.

:(

RIP, I saw him in concert twice back in Detroit.  He put on a great show. 
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

Both my regular cigarette outlets have been out of stock of Winston Lights, my regular brand, for a couple days now.  I've been buying Pall Malls as a stopgap, solely on the basis of their excellent slogan ("where ever particular people congregate").  Much to my distress, they've removed the slogan from their packaging.  :(

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.
