>Wow. And to think my wife took her Angorra blouse and sweater and tossed them in the dryer. Now suitable for an infant - they would be worth a fortune!

>I hate you.

aww... such pleasantry...

>Interesting, your 'yuck' to Auckland. I would have applied it to Wellington :>)
Auckland = large city in NZ trying very hard (and succeeding) in becoming a larger, US city
Wellington = same as above but populated with Government officials... no real chance of success

>Hey, do you chase them in helicopters? Huh, huh do ya? Gotta be great fun. Took the typical tourist trip around the mountain in Queenstown with a 'Nam vet in one and he scared the s**t out of me. I say "Isn't a bit windy today?". "Not a problem - just hang on." All flights that day were grounded 20 minutes after we fell out of the blasted thing.

Use the heli's sometimes... but in knee high (to a sheep) snow, you have to chasee them down in a picket line... first you have to make a little snow path... then get them to walk on it... hard going sometimes... but great fun....

my flatmate is a pilot (single props) so we go up in the mountains quite often... his partner hates it so we always go... she has to pick us up from the pub afterward though... lol

>Thanks. Now, can I pay off my credit card in this decade?

Not likely.... if I can't you can't either...
