The adventure continues!

July 3rd, Day 5
The day starts with a trip to the local Toyota shop where my aunt and I have our cars looked over. I borrowed the receptionist’s phone to start the insurance process. I thought this would be a quick deal, but apparently there’s a “dude is standing in a […]

On July the First, in the year Two Thousand and Seven, the world had known the Dominion of Canada for Seven score years. At midnight on this hallowed day, beavers in the pockets of Kanuckis everywhere winked. None of the numismatists of the world noticed, however, since nobody was wearing anything with pockets […]

From the vacation-in-south-dakota department:
The Badlands. The Black Hills. Deadwood Gulch.
Sounds horrible, doesn’t it? Turns out that it’s loads of fun, though! I’m sitting here by the pool writing this as the rest of the monkeys my family go swimming. I’ll go get my fill of pool in a few minutes, […]

From the ispcon-2006 department:
