But here are some pix of me and my brother in Vietnam and Cambodia. We had a great trip, especially the magical night in Hoi An when they banned all traffic from the downtown (including scooters) and turned off all the lights, leaving just traditional chinese lanterns and the full moon to provide light. It was like going back in time, so beautiful. My brother also got the chance to truthfully work into a converstation that he was 15 klicks south of Da Nang, and he totally always wanted to say that. Also, we watched a movie that was so stupid it became amazing and transcendant, summing up all the despair of America in the early 80s. Tank. Don't question it; just watch and be amazed. Favorite quote: (racist sheriff) "They're not heroes!" (news reporter with unrebuttable proof or awesomeness) "But they have a tank!" Yeah, baby.
Yeah, well, I'm about 15 klicks south of Nyack, New York. So there.
However, I would like to have a tank. And a pony. Or both.

Truly, James Garner's greatest moment.

I'm 15 cliques short of a global social circle.

Or, I'm 15 cliques south of the West Bridge Mall.
Eh. The klicks/cliques pun seemed to have so much potential, I think I've squandered it though.

I'm 15 cliques south of Hot Topic in the West Bridge Mall.

Time to post another somethin', my dears. I have you on my "read daily" list, and I have to disagree with your headline everytime your blog opens up.
Hey, you could link to a video of a Spanish Dancer, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iyEDPtUThVo
I have seen video of these critters before, but never realized how huge they are, something the diver's hand makes obvious in this clip.
Happy Givethanksing!

One of the best things about Tank is that James Cromwell plays a violent pimp. Use your pimp hand, Farmer Hoggett from Babe!
