The proprietors kindly advised us of the following, and it sounds great to us. Pub/Coffeeshop crawling by boat, anyone? A new link was added in "Amsterdam Home/Boats".
Scheepsrecht
tel: 06-24673172
The Scheepsrecht is a rough, half-open army boat without any comfort and a engine with an ugly sound. You'll travel in real native Amsterdam style.
You are allowed to drink alcohol and smoke on board. Pick up and drop off ? No problem for them---it's anywhere you like. Once you are on board they will guide you through the canals or some beautiful spots around Amsterdam. Every now and then a visit to a local bar for a sanitary stop and a refreshment. Beer and soft drinks are available on board, or bring your own.

This begs the question: when will folks from this message board pool their cash and have a cruise? It would be some trip!

Trip...
We changed our mind about hosting a party. Instead we flippantly set off on a train journey across Germany, into Berlin, and then into Poland, visiting Poznan and Krakow, and then made our way down to CZ for a revisit of Prague. We had a grand time, and had intended to post a trip report. Instead we updated a few items in our Prague page, and left it at that. :-)
We have two choices remaining for hosting a 10 yr anniversary party. Next year will be the 10 yr anniversary of the MB, and the following year will be the 10 year anniversary of the registration of our domain, Ignatzmice.com. All of these dates occur about the same time in April---we are peculiar and do these sorts of things in April. The original date, last April was merely the anniversary of the actual site, which predates both of the above.
We can't keep doing this forever, so we don't imagine there'll be a 20 yr anniverary.
In either case, we'll probably just take another trip somewhere :-)

Personally we have never ever done anything but window shop blind. We never pay any attention to what is written here. Our "negotiation" : Lady: Would you like to come in?
Us: Yes. That's it. We're rarely disappointed, so little in fact that it barely registers on our perception. And this after over 20 yrs. We're not easy to please, either. If others believe in the need to negotiate, we won't argue with them, as we recognize that all this sex stuff can be very intimidating, and people have their need to establish a comfort level in dealing with it---if establishing that comfort level consists of negotiating, so be it. But ask us personally, and we'll tell you otherwise. A sense of adventure comes in handy, too. Many people seem to lack that and need everything all laid out for them. Our own sense of adventure, curiosity, call it what you will, is what caused us to acquire all of the experiences that eventually became this web site, and most of it became the basis for many other websites that present similar information about this city.
We do get occasional troublemakers and trolls, we can't help that, and although we do not act with haste when dealing with it---we do give people a fair chance---we do deal with it.
doei.

Heh. We don't even think of what we do here as a doing "job".
Sometimes it shows too, eh? ;-)
(Okay...occasionally it does feel like it, but like indigestion, we know that it will quickly pass)
<!---begin final free plug for Scheepsrecht--->
Incidentally as the Cannabis cup is coming up shortly (Nov 21-26), wouldn't be a hoot, to tour by smokers friendly boat?
