La Tomatina
22 August, 2001
Plaza del Pueblo
Buņol, Spain

Get ready to be covered with sleazy, saucy, slippery red ooze. More than
20,000 people are expected to show up for the world's biggest food fight,
otherwise known as La Tomatina. There is absolutely no political or
religious significance to La Tomatina - it's just good and messy fun. The
fight is over within thirty minutes but those who have endured it can tell
you it feels like forever.
NB. Tourists with cameras and/or baseball caps are prime targets.

the Toll-free Access Number for the country that they are in. Upon dialing,
they will then hear:

key (#).
To send a message, press the * key.

"Enter the members account number.
Or press * to cancel."

4. Upon entering your account number, they will then be prompted to record a

they pressed 2 or 4.

The voicemail or faxmail will be delivered to your Inbox. It's that easy.

drop of about 9 seconds!!) and a helicopter in Germany flying at 400m. If
you are courageous, or just plain mad, take the plunge and join the club!

6. THE VENT
~~~~~~~~~~~

~~ Everybody's got an opinion. What's yours? ~~

Dear ISIConnect,

I just wanted to write and say how great the service is.  I really like the
Travel Safe as I was about to go out and photocopy reams of paper to keep as
copies. I'm off to Central and South America for 18 months
so something like Travel Safe is a great weight off my mind. Thanks a lot
for this fab service!
