So no QC pictures yet... but I got a fun little game for ya. Ever want to write speeches for a monkey named George? No, not me. The monkey running the show in the land of the free. Yes, YOU too can write speeches for George Dubya Bush. Click on the pic for literally MINUTES of entertainment!
This is what I came up with (keep in mind English was not my major...)

My secret santa got me a wicked magazine called Adbusters (and also a big bottle of Maudite - 8% french beer - which was really cool too)... it's a journal on issues ranging from eco-environmentalism to anti-capitalist sentiment to plain anarchic thought. Very refreshing take on our mental and physical surroundings. I particularly liked this one quote:

"Life is hanging by a thread. If it's not a greenhouse gas inferno, carbon-emission suffocation, industrial poisoning, genetically engineered pollution or nuclear winter, it'll be a world of bio-dome cities surrounded by wastelands - and that's for those not wealthy enough to migrate off the planet."

gonna go workout now, and just might get around to posting some pics tonight.

what's it been, five days since I got back from QC? Yep. Where are the pictures of the good times we all shared there? Still on my hard drive, waiting to be resized. I make no apologies either. I'm lazy. We all know that. You should expect that by now. So why the hell do you keep coming back in search of new material on this site?

In an unrelated note, Sue "the scrabble queen" is trying to convince me that a snake skin print skirt is tasteful and classy. I mean, I like wild girls...arrrrr.... but snake skin is just... wrong. I'd post a pic for you to decide for yourself, but I'd like to point you back to my previous comment. Time for sleepy...

so about that web gallery... hehe... yeah. It's coming. What can I say, I'm a lazy mofo. I would've started it tonight, but opted to hit the gym instead. My body is gonna be one big mass of pain tomorrow, but in the end, it'll be worth it. I gotta balance out all the unhealthy crap (McDix) that I ingested all week in Quebec. Oh, and I baked some cookies.



Put me in orange overalls and call me Martha ; )

I'm really surprised... no nasty pictures posted in my whole week away. I'm vaguely disappointed in you Dean. Anyways, I have returned from la belle province (QC!!), and I now see why it's called that. The only walled/ fortified city in North America, wicked 17th century architecture, and of course, a per capita of beautiful girls rivalling the total population density of downtown Tokyo... Aside from the prices of everything that fluctuated on an hourly basis (including MacDonald's breakfast), how could you not fall in love with Quebec City?

Here's a brief breakdown of this past week's after hours drunken revelry- Saturday: arrival at Lester B in Tdot, greetings from several fellow OTPs, including an already drunk Ross (who somehow schmoozed his way into the maple leaf lounge for some free "juice"). Flight connection to QC, check in at Concorde de Loews hotel, and then booze booze booze. Our hotel was situated right beside a ton of bars including the Maurice and Chez Dagobert (personally I think it should be renamed the"orange palace" for the bright orange lighting outside) which we visited twice each. Ross and I kept a mean streak of eating at MacDonald's every day alive for the entire trip, and my colon is definitely paying for it now... we also visited several other bars and pubs, including the Saint Alexandre, Turf, and this wicked little second choice cellar pub with some dude belting out great 80's tunes (yes, even some Jovi) while Phil got his groove on the dance floor. There was also a gift exchange and dinner at a really classy restaurant, organized by none other than our resident gymnast OTP Amelie, formerly from QC. I'll be putting together a slide show and web gallery of all the pics I took. In the meantime, feast your eyes on this shot of some of the handsome and beautiful cohort 2 OTPs.



Four months till Cornwall!
