Gotta Go...

Portland Head LightTo Maine--Although I like Pittsburgh--the city of tunnels and the perpetual 25 mph speed limits-I'd rather be in Maine. The Portland Head Light (at left) is just South of the little city of Portland. There are plenty of great places to stay in Maine, including the Inn at Bufflehead Cove in Kennebunkport-call at 207-967-3879. For more information about Maine try either the State of Maine Home Page run by, well, the State of Maine, or MaineStreet --a commercial service provider in Maine..

Old Thumper LogoWhen I go to Maine, I always stop at Federal Jack's in Kennebunkport. Federal Jack's is a restaurant and brew pub run by the folks at theKennebunk Brewing Company. If you go, try the Old Thumper, YEEHA! For the low down on other Maine brews and brew pubs try the Maine Brew Guide. Or save yourself the trouble and head directly to Gritty McDuff's.

If you're driving, you might as well figure out the fastest way there, or the most scenic, if you like. Delorme's Cyberrouter is a mighty keen on-line route planner that can get you from Pittsburgh to Kennebunkport in under 12 hours. No stopping. Also check out Cyberatlas to take a quick look at, say, Concord, New Hampshire or Bath, Maine.

To Bermuda--
Look, all the links I had to Bermuda withered on the vine, and besides, the last couple of times I sailed I was sea-sicker than a dog. So just get on your own damn boat and go. And, if you go, do remember to stop at the Black Horse Inn in St. David's-they serve the best food on the islands.

Gotta Have...

Real Beer PageA Beer The Real Beer Page has links to several beer related sites, including the Shipyard Brewing Company.--Thash awright ociffer, I only had one.

A Cigar! Wherever I go, I try to bring a couple of good cigars. If you plan on coming along, I recommend you do the same. What, can't find any in the beat up old hoosegow you call home? Then try Smokey Joe's, your on line humidor, and source of human good will. Holts Cigar Company of Philadelphia also has an unmatched selection. Both pages can be accessed from the Fuji Publishing Group Cigar Page. No, I have no idea.

Gotta Look...

For a job. Speaking of crazy--were we speaking?--how 'bout that job search? The Chronicle of Higher Education puts out a job list every week. Bon Chance mes amis!

Up a URL. What? Well if not a Wahoo, then try Yahoo.
