DISQUS

Scobleizer: Going skiing today…

  • MGB · 3 years ago
    Gosh I wish someone would kidnap me and take me to some chalet in the alps.

    How dramatic!

    Then again, I can't ski even if my life depended on it so it's probably for the best.

    Skiing isn't that hard. You can learn ;-)

    Mighty big echo in that there chamber, boy...

    BTW -- it seems there is some confusion -- from what I can tellMarch 7 is the date that Shel is speaking in Toronto -- not March 6.
  • Brian Sullivan · 3 years ago
    OK -- my confusion only -- the proposed dinner is the "night before" -- March 6. Sorry for the noise.

    I hear an echo here, that's for sure. I say something and snark always comes back! I'm gonna call it "snark 2.0." :-)

    So did you all bring your ski suits and stuff on the plane? Or are you just cold in your normal clothes?

    Thanks for the kind words btw -- not sure exactly how I opened your eyes to a lot of the European blogging community, but glad you got something out of it!

    Steph: I borrowed some ski pants from Laurent. It's so warm up here, though, that I could have skiied just fine with jeans and a jacket.

    You're lucky then -- it's so cold here I almost came back home to put my ski pants on when I went out for a walk!

    Steph: we're above the cloud deck. It's weird. It's warmer up here than down there.

    Then I'm really doubly jealous of your week-end -- no, triply: you get raclette!

    Well, I'm glad you were wearing your glasses through all of that black-light naughtiness.

    You make me want to take up skiing again, but I'll just deal with high winds, power-outages, and the never-ending rainy-blustery chill back here.

    I think this is the first time that I've seen Hugh instead of his work. I thought he'd look older. No good reason. Nice suits.

    Steph: raclette was awesome. And the 109-year-old cognac was even better (Napoleon). Unbelieveable.

    Well, you've seen what half a glass of white wine can do to me -- imagine 109-year-old cognac! Less regrets, then, specially with all those geeks with cameras hanging around.
