I have to be in Europe for the next week. I may or may not have internet access (or the time for it). My only teevee will be in a language I don't speak unless the hotel teevee carries CNN International.

I don't want to miss one moment of the fireworks when they happen.

Please, Mr. Fitzgerald ..... wait a week, okay?

Pllllleeeeeeeaaaaassseeeee

I usually get internet access wherever I go, but sometimes it ain't cheap and it can be very slow.

In Singapore, Tokyo, Hong Kong, no problem anywhere.

In the Caribbean, spotty.

In Europe, lots of aceess, but much of it (high priced) dial-up via AOL (ugh). That was true in Italy, Spain, the UK, and France. They all have high speed, but many of the hotels don't and since I'm in a hotel ... who knows ..... its always a surprise.

14. I had free internet access in Spain last year
in the hotel lobby. I never had to wait either. Here's hoping my luck holds out. Although if I have to pay through the nose for it, it'll still be worth it.

I WANT TO SEE FROGMARCHING!



Have a safe trip, H2S! :hi:

4. in my most sadistic voice, N O !

And fitsmas is extremely careful. He won't wait until the last minute.
Tomorrow. that is decision day. D-Day.

6. I hear ya...
but mine is a more, well, touchy-feely artsy-fartsy sort of fear (any astrology freaks out there, you'll understand)...

We are nearing the end of an eclipse period, which is an extremely unstable period of time and definitely NOT the time to start something so momentous as criminal charges being brought against the world's more ruthlessly powerful cabal. And timing is everything, to a large degree. The earliest possible day for Fitz to safely bring charges is Friday Oct 21st, and not one day before.

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming...

21. Update
From today's news reports it appears Fitz will wait until next week to bring charges... good choice, astrologically speaking! And believe me, I was worried he might jump the gun and file charges during the eclipse period... <whew>, thank the gods he's taking more time.

7. Well, on Tweety, Nora O'Donnell said "they have heard" not to expect any
indictments, etc. until at least next week (or something to that effect).

So you may be in luck or they are, as usual, full of sh$%.

8. Don't know where you are going...
but even Ukraine carried the BBC (in English) 3 years ago. It was our only lifeline to home when we were adopting our little boy. So, you may still have access to up-to-date and even better news reporting.

16. "the hotel teevee" screw that find nearest bar (pub)
with Satellite tv pay the bartender something extra
to tune in BBC World News or CNN International.
Then sit back & enjoy a cold one as the entire bar
celebrates the indictments.:toast:

When this breaks, you will be able to understand it in any language.

On edit: although not if I type it. Damned fingers.

19. Will your hotel have internet access? Might there be such, near where
you'll be staying? An internet cafe maybe?

I'd be willing to guess that if it breaks, you'll find MUCHO info about it - EVERYWHERE YOU TURN. This will be big news just about everywhere on the planet.

23. Apparently Fitz is already saying he's got another week to go....
But with a big hurricane headed straight for Florida, you know that Chimpy and Jeb are already plotting how to dominate the whore media coverage. Fitz can take his time, as long as he nails those bastards. Let him make his announcement when he has our full attention.

Because if any other hurricanes turn up after Wilma, that HAARP weather machine technology is going to start looking a lot more realistic, given the convenience of a hurricane turning up every time those fools need one.
