Todd sent me an email with a link to the JIJ's Schnitzel House entry at RateBeer.com. Featuring a picture of Kate and I from last year.
Actually, the JIJ site has a bunch of pictures of people we know. Our gallery includes the picture on the RateBeer site -- I don't know who put it up there, but I imagine it came up from a Google search.
By the way, when Todd isn't asking questions here, he's over at the RateBeer site. Cap Flu is his handle there. And look -- there's even a beer called Boris.

Oktoberfest 2004 Munich: Floating Beer Garden
On one of my leisurely, low impact, bike rides I passed the campsite Thalkirchen today (U3 Thalkirchen, Bus 57) . All quiet before the storm, big Reserved signs in English, camper vans lined up. Thalkirchen is one of several camp site destinations for Oktoberfest revellers, opting out of hotel and hostels. When the weather is nice, this spot is lovely.
Crossing the bridge I came upon the landing place for traditional river rafts.
These are not wild water rafts but made out of rough hewn logs tied together with a platform for seating on top. This is how loggers brought their cut wood to market in the last century.Today it's for corporate outings with a brass band and beer thrown in. You could call it a floating beer garden.
Greetings from Munich, Gisela

Yup - its true. I wrote up a review of an Ottawa area restaurant for RateBeer.com's PLACES section and was amazed when I accessed JiJ's website for additional information to support my review...
Master Boris and Maiden Kate are in numerous photographs; and a section of the photo-gallery page was even hosted off the bmannconsulting website.

So BORIS, I hope you don't mind - but I stole a pic of you and Kate for the RateBeer picture to accompany the JIJ review? Seemed fitting.
What a character - still supporting an Ottawa restaurant after being long gone!

PS. The beer Boris [from France] is aweful! No bragging rights there.
