Hi all!
I sent two msgs last night, and got the following error msg in return:
> 554 Too many hops 26 (25 max): from <sbjoner@xxxxxxxxx> via
>baremetal.pinc.com, to <olympus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Seems as if there's a major pileup today... no msgs this morning and only
25 msgs this evening... ???
Therefore, here is a compilation of what was sent and other replies:

Preferable a Fjord (I hope you meant NoRwegian...) that ends near Oslo...

Why not I? Wagner fanatic #1 here - I starved for 8 weeks to be able to see
The Ring der Nibelungen twice (full Ring) and even Götterdämmerung another
3 times (and I don't even like G.)

Keep in mind - the Bible is based on what was written a long time ago -
what if the only written word that survives us is "News of the World", "The
Sun", etc? I'm glad I won't be around then....

So *that's* the self-timer... [showing off her complete ignorance on the
subject]
Yup, 'twas turned off, I've checked and the beep is still there. Although
still silent. ;-)
