OT GRS: Hamilton and divorce?
While in Germany, I read a newspaper blurb that iterated through Tyler
Hamilton's woes this year, including, according to them, a divorce from his wife. This came as a surprise to me, and seemed particularly suspicious as they never mentioned the death of his dog. Seems like they might have gotten their facts mixed up. Anyone heard anything about a Hamilton divorce? -- monique "Get a bicycle. You will not regret it, if you live." -- Mark Twain |

How'd you like Germany? I was in Munich for the first time 3 wks ago, for 2 weeks, and loved it! Well, there's a big difference between a trip to Germany and a trip to visit family ... I did the latter. My mother and I spent a solid eight days with my grandmother, whom I hadn't seen in 12 years. It was ... well, let's just leave it at the fact that it was *not* a vacation, and in comparison, the flights to and from Germany were exciting and fun. Also possibly roomier -- grandma guilted us into staying in her one-bedroom apartment rather than letting us stay in the hotel about a block away. We did get one day with some family friends, and that was great. When I was a kid, I lived a couple houses away from them, and they are still as welcoming, loving, and generally awesome as they were back then. They even made my favorite foods, which they still remembered. I did gain at least one belt notch while in Germany -- combination of good food and stress-eating. There wasn't anything else to do. There were great hiking trails all over the place where grandma lives, but mom couldn't handle any incline whatsoever, and I couldn't even get to breathing deeply walking the flats with my mom. I was not allowed to hike alone (hi, I'm a full-grown adult and everything!) because my mom was afraid I'd get kidnapped or assaulted or something. The stress level in the apartment was high enough that I didn't feel like starting a major row by just up and leaving. Then the rain and the cold came, and we couldn't even do the scenic drives which grandma apparently likes ... so, trapped in a tiny apartment with two other women and a yappy dwarf poodle who can do no wrong in the eyes of my grandmother. Ah well. I was gratified to find that my German came back to me pretty well; I was thinking in German and even had a bit of trouble finding the right English words by the end of the trip. Our family friends expressed astonishment at my lack of accent; one of the kids even commented that I spoke in the Pfaelzish (sp?) dialect! Just a few things here and there; mom always insisted that I speak proper German when I was a kid. How was your trip? -- monique "Get a bicycle. You will not regret it, if you live." -- Mark Twain |

You will not regret it, if you live." -- Mark Twain Mine was not a "vacation" either - I was there on business. Though I went with a German colleague who lived in Munchen so he was a perfect tour guide. He knew all the restaurants, beer gardens, the food, the customs, etc. I got to know the rail system pretty well. Munich is a city of bicycles - I almost got run over by bicyclists since I didn't expect them. I stayed mainly at the Marienplatz, and got to go to Schwabbing (sp???) I stayed for 2 weeks so the weekend in between, I went to Salzburg, Austria with a Filipina friend who I met, who worked in the same company (just friends, I'm married!). She spoke fluent German and has lived in the Munich for 5 yrs. now, so she was another perfect tour guide. I got to see Mozart's birthplace, and the house where he grew up. I appreciated this since I'm a musician (music hacker really). I did not get to ride a bike though, my regrets. But the food, the beer, the people, the city were great. I loved it and would want to go back -- - Zilla Cary, NC (Remove XSPAM) |
