I cannot impress on you just how giant the scoreboard is in Kansas City’s stadium. (Click on the picture to get the full size.)

When Garth Brooks appears on this thing to tell the local fans about whatever Garth Brooks and Kansas Citians discuss, it is a truly awesome sight, like God coming down to speak to the masses directly.

Probably the busiest week of the quarter this week, exacerbated by the fact that I actually tried to enjoy myself over the holiday weekend instead of “getting things done.” I went to the Melvins/Green River show and then My Baby and I went to the surprisingly sunny Oregon coast and took a cruise in Oregon’s fourth largest estuary.
I did want to update you that my “internship problem” has been solved. I’ll be working for one of the faculty members over the summer as an RA. So it’s not really an internship per se, but it can count as one. In addition, I’m planning to start work on a thesis this summer that I hope I can wrap up in the fall with my final class and get my degree in December.
That’s the rough plan. We’ll see.

Even a crappy phone picture of this wondrous chocolate fountain in Vegas is enough to give me a hard-on.

Pictures of me and My Baby taken in the ass of the mirror-paneled horse in the lobby of the Bellagio.

From Granville Island in Vancouver….

With My Baby’s hand in there for a sense of scale.
Are these from a cow?

Even the mannequins in South Beach have fake breasts. And, yes, I felt very self-conscious taking a picture of this, even knowing it was meant for MPL.

Compare this to a mannequin from New York City.

Also, compare this drink from South Beach…

…with these from New York.


Yeah, I think that just about sums up the differences between the two cities.
