Yes, it's evening, but this is the first chance I've had to logon. I'm in St. Louis this week for the Department of Defense E-Business Conference. I'm staying at the Marriott Renaissance Grand Hotel downtown. It's not very convenient to much (no sports bars or other restaurants within two or three blocks of the hotel, which isn't a good thing. Sessions start at 8AM and run untl 4:30 or so. The room has Internet access but it's intermittent - I logged on yesterday when I arrived but about 10 minutes after I did the connection was dropped (it's a hard connection, not WiFi).

Yeah, you're SOL if you want to walk anywhere but the Hilton, Rassison and Adam's Mark are a short cab ride away (near 4th and Pine). See if you like their bars.

Are you going across the river to visit a certain Wal-Mart while you're out there? :)

Saunter on over to Illinois and check out the local Mecca. I hear they've got a dynamite Cleaning aisle! Their Lawn and Garden, on the other hand, is somewhat slapdash.

Well, now I look totally unoriginal and copycatty. I hope there are at least points for panache. Ha!
