Viewropa: we don't talk about US politics

November 2, 2004 9:14 AM

If any folks would like to escape from the probable concentration on the US election here for the next day or two (and maybe many weeks after), you are all very welcome to come and discuss European issues over a cup of tea and scones at Viewropa...

bliss!
I'll be keeping my eye on the election in the US anyway.. But still, nice to know there's a place to hide!

I have two bottles of wine, and windows open with Metafilter, Viewropa, and Google News.. . obviously, for one night* only, I'm the queen of the worldnews! Tomorrow I shall return to my usual fog. Except with a hangover.

*well, it's night here already

sorry, not really on-topic, but what kind of time can we expect seeing results?

Here is a fixed-time calculator showing 7pm EST in other parts of the world.

(I think - at least it worked for me in preview, but then I set up the page...)

"You can lead a horologophile, but you can't make her drink."

You know who said that, don't you?







That's right. Dorothy Dandridge.

Didn't she also say "There's nothing certain in life but death and Texas"?
