izat me? Ambassador? Kewl. Only if I get to wear a sash though.

Red Fly is closest to...umm...metro Centro Medico, I believe. Orizaba runs north-south, parallel to Cuautemoc and Insurgentes.

Map 83 square 6E, thereabouts.

And welcome to Mexico City, Ernest. Watch where you step. Wink

I can make it. I will be arriving from Morelia at the Poniente bus station. I can either take a cab (which scares me) or take the metro (which also scares me, but a little bit less). Will the metro be unbearably crowded on Saturday?

Jump in the metro. It's perfectly safe. Observatorio station out to Isabela Catolica or thereabouts.

You don't know how many times I've used this as a pick up line.

wouldnt have it Freddy... remember just blame Canada... After all, it was Guy that didnt find you last month... and the month before, despite calling his cell innumerable times, I couldnt get a hold of Guy at Garibaldi.... seems he was .... er.... busy at the time and supposedly couldnt hear his cell. uh huh!

Guy.. now before you scare poor jillford off.... THAT WAS NOT A PICK UP LINE! Laughing

Freddy, I don't know how we missed each other. I was at La Faena until 8 PM...anyway, you have my number now.

My cell phone went to Garibaldi and had a good time. It came back home the next day smelling of cheap tequila and with some pretty raunchy new ringtones.

Hey Guy,

How about an address and nearest Metro station for the Red Fly?

I'll be there but not looikng forward to wandering aimlessly asking strangers, "Do you where the Red Fly is?"

yeah Guy... we spend the night waiting for a guided tour of your bro-in-law's photos.

But we met some cool people, did we not?

By the way... I will report that after most of you left, I, Alex and jillford went back to the pool place until it closed and in all due modestly I will add that I won every game I played. Any other challengers?

Sorry all...had an emergency to attend to. I'm glad people showed up anyway.

Were my brother-in-law's photos up? He didn't tell me.

Leigh, you didn't mentioned that you play pool. I'd love to play...could always use some practice, even if at a novice level. Wink
