LOL. 

I actually do not like to travel. The TSA is nuts... decades later we're still
worrying about "shoe bombers".

Had to fly to a wedding in New Hampshire recently, though. Worried about it
for weeks. Wasn't a bad trip, but I'm happy to do that only when I must
(family).

The Catholic Church was very ornate inside. Reminded me of how much effort
people put into that stuff.

How did you conclude from that that I don't think a German brew is good?

Oh my god, the feral boys loose in Deutschland! 

I remember a classmate at Saint Mary's grade school went to Europe and
his family did a nice slide show for our class.

The thing that he remembered the most was "French <n-word>s."
