Look more pictures!!!
Ok so since it is finally cool again to post here and they have released those prisoners, I have decided my hunger/posting strike is over. I recently ran away to Mexico to do a little business and steal some of their heritage. Besides sitting by the pool and eating glorious food, I went and saw some history. I saw history only on 1 day out of 7 and I said no mas!!!
so prepare to get knowledge dropped:
so this is Chimmy Chonga (wikipedia it if you don't believe me) It's where some Mayans hung out while Christopher Columbus was chilling with them. They were like waddup Chris you wanna hang out in our giant Temple while we farm? and he was all like sure I love america and he bought one of those I <3 NYC shirts. Again wikipedia this it's all there.
This is some badass wall carvings. The mayans enjoyed deaf metal and death medals.
This is the greatest slot machine name ever.
Emu Eggs are Pretty
I wrote a little bit about this at theDailyOtaku.Blogspot.com... but I think I'm going crazy, because they're painting back here and I'm getty woozy. Not sure how that article came out but I know I won't be able to write again more... I gotta get the hell out of this room.
If they didn't cost thirty bucks, I'd have bought one. Here it is next to a duck egg.
Duck eggs, for the record, are just slightly smaller than Chicken eggs. Just slightly. Right, Dan?

Photo Tour Through Europe Pt 1
Rather belatedly I'm going to take you on a virtual tour of Europe through the medium of photography! First stop Paris.
The first thing you should know about Paris is that it's actually in France and not a country unto itself. After that initial shock, and the secondary shock of finding yourself in America's #1 enemy's homeland, you realize that its actually quite lovely. There is all sorts of wine and food and wine and cheese and wine and it's lovely. Even the the street food is classy.
On a rainy Thursday morning Amber and I went to the Louvre along with all of Asia. If I had a nickel for every Asian getting their picture taken in front of (and almost completely obscuring) a piece of art while showing a peace sign, why I'd have like enough to buy all of the tea in China.* While getting lost in the Richlieu wing, we found the elusive ghost of the Louvre. Some say it's the ghost of Louis XVI, but those people need to grow up. It's obviously the Ghost of Christmas Past.
President Obama gave us street cred wherever we went. It was as if he bestowed upon us a halo and golden tooth and giant clock necklace. Every Parisian we had the pleasure of meeting was friendly and helpful. Only later did we realize this joviality was a ruse designed to make us lower our guard. The moral of the story: the French will take intentionally blurry photos.
A trip to the Musee D'Orsay inspired me to experiment with impressionism and more modern representations of objects. This picture, taken from my Dreams on the Seine series, is titled "Dude at the Tip of Isle De La Cite".
Well, I hope you feel like you experienced Paris firsthand. Join me soon for a further entry into my acclaimed photo-journalism blog, OurPhotoJournalismBlogIsDifferent.
* For more hilarious comments about Asians look for the forthcoming Spanish leg of my journey.
