I had a dream. It was an incredible dream. When I awoke, I had a huge mess to clean up.

Well take lots of pics and do a trip report for sure.

I saw Alice In Chains with special guest Soundgarden in Milan, wish I'd done more while I was there.

The Kindle Fire is a nice reader/Amazon shopper. Amazon tried to catch the tablet wave and market the Fire as a real tablet, but, it isn't. It appears to be very good at what it is originally designed to do, but, mediocre at its expanded scope.

i'll never understand people who read books on tablets. or people who buy the amazon fire or nook tablet with no desire to root it into something decent.

Your wife got you tablet of inferior technology so your toddler can have 600$ tablet for a toy? I think you got a case for an divorce settlement right there.

i also don't understand why the toddler would get the bigger and better tablet if all it's going to do is watch videos.

Where in Italy are you going? I was stationed there for two years in the military. If you aren't going to Florence you might as well not go IMO.

Be sure to give a detailed trip report.



Well, that's a concern for me. I was considering doing a week's vacation in Tuscany in September. It's a cooking vacation which is why Tuscany specifically has been selected. Is it that bad? (Never been to Italy)
