Salzburg in Summer

Salzburg in Winter

DoReMiFaSoLaTiDo-SO DOOO So then, after we ate Schnitzel mit Nudeln and some hot Apfelstrudeln (plus toured St. Stephan's Church and the Hapsburg's old summer house) in Vienna, we fashioned winter coats from the heavy curtains in our guest house, and headed back to Z�rich. But first we jumped off the train and ran around some our favorite places in Salzburg.

Let's Boogie, Baby! Tivo's in town. We took the train over to Vienna (9+ hours) to see my Viva Diva herself - the lovely and talented Ms. Sabrynaah Pope - perform at Vienna's chicest nightclub. She was HOT. But of course we knew she would be. We arrived in the Limo with her, and hung out behind the scenes in the VIP Lounge - along with her geil colleages Lisa Millet and Daryl D'Boneau. Oh, and I have it on good authority that Sabrynaah's Official Website should be on-line April 2.

How could They Tell by the Teeth? I'm reminded of some disrespectful "hillbilly" stories I heard from an Alpine dentist in Kanton Uri regarding the condition of his mountain dwelling patient's teeth. But seriously, the oxygen residue on your teeth indicates to scientists where you grew up ... who knew?

Army Knives and Gold Coins - He Was Swiss According to the news (including this report from MSNBC) the architect of that ancient wonder - Stonehenge - was Swiss! Analysis of the teeth from a 4,300 year old body buried near Stonehenge reveal the man - thought to have played an imporant part in the monuments construction - was most likely from the Alpine region of modern day Switzerland. That could make the stone circle a feat of Swiss engineering. According to the local drive-time rag 20 Minuten the body was also found with the oldest gold coins in Great Britian and three bronze-age army knives. This was enough to prove to me, the Brits (and the 20 Min headline) that he was a "typical Swiss" guy.

I've attempted to leave this blog in the state it was in early 2006 as a historical artifact, but Google broke my original Archive page. What you see above is a quick reconstruction to rebuild some archive functionality without altering the original blog layout (or researching too deeply into Blogspot).
