MrB and I are currently in Vienna, attending the Global Editors Network Summit on media innovation<\/a>. My No. 1 goal while here is to re-enact a photo from our last visit here, many years ago. This was probably taken in 1999 or 2000.<\/p>\n

While I’m generally against closet purges<\/a>, I’m delighted to say that I rid myself of the hideous pants and shoes long ago. (The t-shirt most likely just wore out.) Obviously, I kept the necklace! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
