Okay. Enough. Really, I have had enough. It’s freezing here. In Paris, it’s in the forties. People are sitting in cafés and enjoying their espressos outdoors (with the help of heat lamps). I’m outta here. Next post: from Paris.
[I’m en route today, will be in France tomorrow, for many delicious days. Fine. One day of very hard work there -- I can handle that, especially since much of it will be conducted in the French way: over fine food and wine. The other days -- well, there's France out there. In the forties. With outdoor cafés. And winter landscapes. And good French people, going about their business, doing their thing, cooking their foods, growing their grapes...]

brando: a deal: your adoring readership for a month in exchange for a bunch of frequent flyer miles that'll get you to the other side of the ocean. I knew it! You're hooked on your fans, you are!
I am at O'Hare. There is a snowstorm. I am taking photos of snow ploughs except you can't see them because there is a white-out. Please, Paris is so close yet so far! Don't slip out of my grasp now!
hang in there!!! I'm sure you'll get off the ground soon.
