I'm just not feeling well enough to do all those things I do not want to do, but fine enough for those things I do want to do. India it turns out is not only good for the waist line but a perfect excuse too <br> <br> I have to go to Dallas sometime in Dec for a refresher course on how to crash your helicopter and live and am waiting for a space on the course to open up. Hopefully it won't be the week you are in NY - let you know. <br> <br> At 03:02 PM 11/26/2003 -0700, you wrote:<br> <blockquote type=cite class=cite cite>Hi, sorry for the late response, but I totally hit the walll (the proverbial<br> one, not the chinese one) this last weekend.

Guess neither of us are kids anymore, although<br> don't tell our brains that. It's more fun to push it and act 22. <br> <br> Glad you enjoyed India, and the Taj just moved way up on my list. Have to<br> do that one someday. 7 in 7. Maybe I'll take 7 weeks instead of<br> days....Nah... <br> <br> I'll probably be in New York sometime the week of the 15th. Let me know if<br> you're around, or if one day works better than another. Be great to see<br> you. Have a great Thanksgiving, and we all have a lot to be thankful for.<br> It's been a tumultuous year, but at the end of the day I'm still one lucky<br> son of a bitch. <br> <br> All the best, and send some pictures or your trip now that you're back in<br> the good 'ol US of A. <br> <br> <br> <br> Original Message <br> From: G Max <• ;<br> To: &It, ;<br> Sent: Sun Nov 23 21:48:45 2003<br> Subject: <br> <br> I am back in New York- it feels like a lifetime later.
