@alastc What snagged me were the Jewish lawyers who all had connections to the garment industry. I'm not a lawyer, but guess what Daddy did?
Honest question: Am I an Outlier? Or is that just distorted arrogance? http://www.gladwell.com/outliers/
@an_archi Oh yeah, the Chinese are great yellers! I like being around loud passionate people, well, I'm one of 'em, stands to reason.
Anyone have a chance to read Malcolm Gladwell's new book, "Outliers"? I leafed through it in Oslo but they wanted a small fortune for it.
I think I relate to the French because they always sound like they're fighting, even when it's just a casual discussion.

@dstorey you are home safe in Oslo though? Or still connecting?
@aprildgibson I'm always happy to share! In fact, hold out your glass and I'll pour you some wine. :)
Smiled at the handsome barmen who are setting up for a private party. Now I'm cozy with a bottle of the local wine and a great "view" ;)

I'm emotional. This is now the 4th time I've been in flight when an air catastrophy has occured. Counting blessings and sending love to all.
@lulugirl896 Oh you are so sweet to be thinking of me! I'm fine, but you reminded me I best email the family just in case. Thank you :*
I am safely arrived in France. It would appear others are not so lucky. How does a jet go missing in today's world? http://twurl.nl/o2er2e

@fdevillamil Thank you! The Web and Paris are now in your hands. I, too, look forward to meeting up next weekend. Onward to Nice, Au revoir!
@fdevillamil hahaha, I'm on my way to France now. :D Keep it nice for me. Oslo has been gorgeous, just awesome.
@SailorJ All I can say is this is the stuff I find shocking in the world. Violence. And in the name of a god in the house of a god at that.
@bdsexton Awww. Sure, you can save that spider for me. I won't be in your neighborhood for another three weeks though. Feed her well!
@frogtosser No, in fact we ended up having a pub dinner, which was fair because we were in England after all. Thanksgiving compromise :)
@OSL waiting on a flight to @NCE. Plane looks like there are four people on it. Could I get so lucky as to have an entire row to myself?
@beep I'll be sure to write them in HTML and CSS for so you can quickly do a style sheet switch. Wonder if anyone would notice ;)
