Oh, yes. I'm waiting in line to get on it now.

Thanks to all for making this a smashing weekend.

Both the riding and the drinking were great. Hope I did not hold anybody up too much when riding, and that I didn't offend anybody while I was wasted.

Being dead drunk and stoned at the same time wasn't an experience I'd like to repeat.

I heard a rumor that I switched to Norwegian at a point before crashing. i don't remember anything about it myself, so I wont be able to help with a translation. No big loss, I'm sure.

Off for the ferry now..
