    Hello friends!!

    In case you guys have no idea what to do the first weekend in July (yes, I realize that Carey might actually be the only person to think so far ahead but I am still giving it a try), I have an idea what you could do:

    Alan and I always talked about having a wedding party later on and this is what is going to happen. A friend of mine has a house in Tuscany, which we can use. So in case you want to join us for this event (3/4/5th of July) then you all are more than welcome.  Massi told me that the house is 50 min. away by train from Rome. The house has 5 bedrooms one bathroom (there is always the sea) and lots of floors. Massi also told me that there should be more or less cheap accommodation close by. So, as soon as you have any idea if you can make it, let us know.

    Please remember: We expect a significant amount of people to be there during the weekend, so please bring sleeping bags and sleeping mats as we are for sure going to run out of beds or just don’t sleep, which might be an option, too. Everybody arriving from Europe: If you can bring a tent, too!
     
    Looking forward to seeing you guys in Bella Italia!


    Bine & Alan


    Here’s where we’ll be staying.  I’m not sure where we’re all going to sleep.  About 25 have already RSVP’d!!  Hooray for Frequent Flyer Miles!

    And from the “Only in West Hollywood” Department, comes this story:

    West Hollywood, California (January 19, 2009) – West Hollywood firemen doused an apartment fire that destroyed one unit and made five others unlivable Sunday, reviving two lifeless pets in the aftermath.

    A plugged in laptop left on a carpet while the tenant walked her dog exploded into flames at 1169 Orange Grove Avenue in WeHo around 5:00 pm Sunday evening, said Station 7 Captain Ric Brandelli.  He told WeHo News that his men located a yellow lab and black tabby on their secondary search of the premises, both apparently overcome with smoke inhalation.

    After removing the pair to the street, paramedics began what seemed, initially, to be futile efforts to revive them.  “We worked on them for quite a while, and it didn’t look like they would make it” said Capt. Brandelli, “and then the cat began breathing on its own and ran away.”

    He said his cohort turned its attentions to the dog, a 16-yr old, again with no results to show for precious minutes.Then, to everyone’s relief, “the dog started breathing on its own and stood up to walk around,” he said.  The cat and dog resided with the woman whose laptop began the conflagration.  Capt. Brandelli said that she was not present for the cat’s resuscitation, but witnessed the dog’s.

    “No words can describe the relief in the lady’s expression,” he said. As a pet guardian and animal lover himself, (see Firemen Of The Sunset Strip 2009 Calendar Benefits Animal Rescue – Monday, December 22, 2008 for more) he said he and his fellows got a special thrill out of the experience.  “We were all relieved and glad,” he said. He reported no other injuries.  Read more…


    Yep, the fireman from the “Firemen Of The Sunset Strip 2009 Calendar Benefits Animal Rescue actually rescued the dog & cat!  LOL
