chicago 001
Well after a pretty raucous final nite in st. louis, including a wrestling match, swim in a lake, and the commandering of a bi-pedal powered vessal, we set off for chicago. We made some good friends there. One in particular threatened to pull a linbergh baby us, and kidnapp us off to her house. though a temping offer it was, time constraints proved unmelodic. so off we rolled. Now having slept the bare minimum for operational readiness, the likelihood off covering and grand distances was small. But drive we did... quite nearly right over a little brown puppy attemping to cross interstate 55. At first glance it appeared to be some type of rodent, which incidentally i would slow down for as well, but as we grew closer, it became most obvious it was a puppy. ... read more
Well here in olde St. Lois yall going pretty crazy for the baseball stuff. cookoo for cardinal puffs. we might try and catch a game this weekend. so far its been pretty fun here. walk down town for a while. the architetual style here is some kind of hodgepodge from every historically important era. it makes little sense but you can forgive its lack of continutity by its consistensey to be inconsistent. the arch if further proof of this.. what shape says western expansion like the mighty arch? yeah, i dont know but their real proud of it here, so i let it go. so far the food has been pretty ok. im really looking forward to chicago though. the really cool thing here was a place called city museum. look it up if your in ... read more
well after 12 states and just over 3000 miles, we arrived in memphis. Walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale. like many towns down south drinking on the street is permitted if you have a to-go cup... whitch we do. but here in memphis, its only allowed on beale. which is understandable. you really dont want a bunch of drunken hooligans running around your city if you can help it. al least until 3 o'clock when the boot you off of beale and actually force you to meander through a variety of streets. most of which on probably shouldn't be on at 3 in the morning, unless its in an armoured humvee with a 60 cal. on top to defend yourself with. but such is life, at least such is my life. anyway, we ... read more
Well its only been a week since we left savannah, but for some reason it seems much longer. for starters, we drove 400 miles out of savannah on the first day. thats double what i normally like to put the truck through, but she was running like a champ and i felt like driving, so on we went. we made it to the north side of tallahasse. we camped out in a walmart to get a good jump on the morning. during that evening i found an interesting tunnel/labyrinth system near by which i took it upon myself to investigate. well so what if it was a storm drain system from the walmart parking lot. whats that got to do with anything. its an amazing and dangerous policy in the south to sell beer at every ... read more

So were still in savannah. james, our host tells people he is looking into christmas stockings for us. often do we feast, and often do we drink. its a fly town. you cant come here and not just want to relax. its hot. hot as hell in fact, and its not even summer yet. but its heaven if your into taking it slow. one day at a time.(no references implied) today we built a giant bananagrams game. the pieces a 1 foot big and there are 144 of them. were going tomorrow to play in the park. well we played the giant bananagram game, a.k.a. savannahgrams, and its a hell of alot more physical than you think. lots of running, thinking, then more running. but we had a blast with it. today is monday and we ... read more

So, i live in savannah now. we rolled in here yesterday and im never leaving. but im getting ahead of myself. we rolled out of charlestown saterday morning, about 11 ish. the previous evening i place 5th in the charlseton kareoke competion. really. i lead off with some king of rock n roll. we were just at the place for a drink but you all know that i will sing or dance at the drop of a hat. this contest allowed me to do both. all the other contestants we like american idol wannabes. to be fair, the could all sing well. the choose their songs carefully. me i flipped open the book and picked the first song i knew. hound dog. anybody can sing hounddog, right? but how many can do it in a fur ... read more
made it to charleston, aka chucktown, and things are as alright as ever. met up with germs(jeremiah, aka joDan) friend goose, aka chris. before he got off work we cruised down downtown and boy, did we see some jabbys down there. charlseton college was just letting out and the ladies were everywhere. germ was hung out the window hollaring at any thing that moved, and i was doing my best to keep at least one eye on the road. after we damb near hit a parked car, i paid a bit more attention. so after a bit of a cruise, we met goose up a the place of his residence. thus why i am blogging, due to his kind offer of wifi use. wifi. how many of you take for granted the fact that everyone knows ... read more
all right so were couch surfing, rather driveway surfing in wilmington. tonight we are headed to a kick ball cook out @ travis's house. bound to be some jabby's there so our spirits are up. the missile is a wreck inside and the toilet couldnt smell worse, but we are as happy as can be! our plans are starting to solidify. but as per usual, all bets are off the moment we light up the missile. i wrote a 3 page paper on why we need more cup holders, the word rule has been basished from our venacular, today is apparently sunday, and were about to fix up the mohawk. still achance that we may volunteer at the state park here but for sure we are going camping there cause we need a fire... fires important. ... read more
