Random Picture of the Day: Stop Kissing My Ass
Random Picture of the Day: Underwater
We’re in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee right now doing absolutely nothing. It’s been pouring all day and most of the activities around here require being outside (ex. go-karting, hiking, zorbing etc). So, we spent an extra day here hoping the weather would clear up for tomorrow and caught up on our trash / crap TV including an episode of Bible Man (seriously, wtf!? This is taking cheese and indoctrination to a whole new level), Dallas Divas and Daughters, Supernanny (not so bad), and The Dish. So this is what Topanga is doing nowadays eh?
Morten Was Stopped By a Wiener
We stopped at K-mart yesterday in Phoenix, Arizona to get some snacks for the road. Ang and I got in just fine, but Morten was stopped by the door greeter dressed as a hot dog (she was promoting the store’s Halloween costumes). She wouldn’t let Morten in with his camera bag and he didn’t want to check it in at their counter so he had no choice but to stay at the entrance with the hot dog. Normally he’d argue about being denied access even though several women with large purses were being let through, but how can you argue with a frail woman in a hot dog costume!?

It’s a means of discovering yourself and learning to modify your habits and ways of thinking to become someone better than the person you were when you left. This is a vacation.
Things I Learned About / From Snow Camping
Ang, Morten and I tagged along on my cousins’ annual Memorial Day Weekend snow camping trip at Mount Rainier last week. We hiked up to Goat Island Peak at Mount Rainier National Park on Saturday and spent the night before coming back down on Sunday. These are some of the things I learned from the trip.
“You’re From Canadia?”
Last Friday Ang, Morten and I drove down to the states to visit our cousins and friends. We stopped at a Fat Burger for dinner where an uninformed young woman was serving and (like many Americans) was surprised to discover that Canadian money is coloured. But, unlike most Americans (I hope), she also thought that [...]
