Another Oktoberfestian?
It appears we have another Oktoberfestian joining our ranks this year. While the details have not yet been ironed out, Frau Jane Lynch is planning to join us.
Jane is a veteran from the 2005 "Uber Trip", and will also be joining the pre-trip in Amsterdam; although going significantly earlier than the rest of us. She will be spending more time with Schlumbergerlady, Barbus and the new grandson (and future Oktoberfestian). Travel from Amsterdam to Munchen is still up for discussion. Some think that Jane and Schlumbergerlady travel by car, while Barbus joins the rest of the crew on the train. Only time will tell.
Frau Lynch is looking forward to meeting the "newbies", and we hope she begins to contribute to the blog soon.

Check Out the New Format ! ! !
Well Oktoberfestians, I've spent most of the weekend upgrading the blog. It hasn't been touched since our first post back in March of 2005. This new format gives us Blog Meisters some additional flexibility and ease of use for making changes.
As with anything knew, there may be some hiccups, but that's probably from all the Maß I had while making the change. Please let me know what you think, especially if it is good input.
Prost to All !

Our Flights Have Changed
Just happened to check the Delta web site today, and they changed our outgoing flight from Dayton. We were flying to Minneapolis, and this change caused us to miss our flight to Amsterdam. So I called, and we now fly through Detroit, and get to Amsterdam almost three hours earlier. Yippee !!
So here's our new itinerary to Amsterdam:

Wine Proverb
Drink wine, and you will sleep well. Sleep well, and you will not sin. Avoid sin, and you will be saved. Therefore, drink wine and be saved.

At the Wine Tent
For some reason my web server (vozels.com) is not web serving very well, and I don't have the time (or inclination) to debug it at this point in time. So, I give you BarleyMan and Einfahrt at The Wine Tent.
Something to think about...
A glass of wine
To my friends who enjoy a glass of wine..
And those who don't and are always
seen with a bottle of water in their hand.
As Ben Franklin said:
In wine there is wisdom,
In beer there is freedom,
In water there is bacteria.
In a number of carefully controlled trials, Scientists have demonstrated that if we drink
1 litre of water each day,
At the end of the year we would have absorbed More than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. Coli) - bacteria Found in feces.
In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.
However,
We do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) Because alcohol has to go through a purification process Of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.
Remember:
Water = Poop,
Wine = Health
Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, Than to drink water and be full of $hit..

Beer Halls?
I see you mention your "favorite beer halls" in the Oktoberfest Resource Page. Which might those be?? I have been going through the BDG2M and I have so many that I want to hit. A really great book. So glad I got it...
