Was hitting the user "random" button at work and I thought to myself why haven't I ever done a search for Leysin or LAS on LJ? So I did and ended up here ( Read more... )

Oooooooooh yes, I agree, Dr. Ott was very much a minion of Dr. Evil.
One day I'll post the story about how I premired the alma matter at graduation (of course, maybe it was in effect for years and this was a way of making me sing it, I dunno) after Dr. "I look like a giraffe" Ott tried to screw my dad out of 1000 CHF five minutes prior.

But yes, drinking permission, clean air, yummy food, and an amazing view.... ah, it was home.

Liz, Class of 2000

I'm Natalie, 2000, one of Liz's roommates... and drinking permission was still going strong when we were there. Dr. Ott really does look like a giraffe, his wife doesn't know what the Kama Sutra is, Mr. Sharp was the coolest English teacher ever and I could SO go for a Mistral sans tomates at the Croissanterie.

LOL, I remember mu first day at LAS. At the time the LAS bus was driven by a guy named Natale who was Sicilian. He would drive that bus like a crazy man. When we took a trip to France I swear he would go down the tiniest streets like a race driver, when the bus must have been only inches from buildings...on either side!

So he is tooling up the mountain at his top pace and I hear someone in the back say "Oh shit, Natales been drinkin again." and I about crapped my pants. Obviosly the peeps who were comin back knew how he drove, but newbies like me would buy the drinkin explanation hook line and sinker.

I assume Natale was still around for Joe, was he around in 2000? prolly not
