Wise Words of Bill Maher
[Maher on Oscar Goodman]
Anyone elected mayor of a place called "Sin City" is allowed to be a drunk. Las Vegas mayor Oscar Goodman is taking flak for telling school children that he doesn't have a problem drinking because - quote - "I love to drink." And then adding that if he had to pick anything to be stranded with on a desert island, he would bring his favorite gin. Kids, personally, I would bring Eve, because you know that freak is packin' weed.

Blame Canada

The 23rd day of the 7th 12th in the 5th year of the Mage

Another week has gone by without anything productive being done. This time, it was a long week hauling ass in Canada. I was reluctant to go on the trip from the begining, but my dysfunctional family dragged me along anyway for the 6+ hour drive up to Kingston Canada, Montreal, and then Lake George New York. In all honesty, the best part of the trip was sitting in the car reading the new Harry Potter book.

Kingston is a bustling little town on the shore of Lake Ontario, where peopl at least speak English. We stayed at an actually decent hotel near the lake and just basically walked around the town doing absolutely nothing. There was an amatuer talent showcase of some sort going on and all the streets were closed, forcing us to wander around quite a bit before we could park. Surprisingly, the hotel had internet access for free (one of the only highlights of my vacation)! We ate at a really cheap resturant (cheap as in bad, not as in less money) and went near the lake. One thing I did notice while in Kingston was that Canada is not much cooler than NJ during the summer. The Canadian city was at least 90 degrees, perhaps even hotter than NJ.

The section of Lake Ontario located near Kingston is home to at least 1000 islands (or so the tour guide says). Being the stupid tourists we were, we immediately took a cruise boat out to see the Thousand Islands. Living on these islands were extremely rich people (or bastards) who had nothing to do all day but sail around on their speedboats and drink alcohol. But the cruise wasn't too horrible, providing a nice escape from the sweltering temperature.

Montreal was probably the best part of the trip. If anyone does get the chance to see it, it is really nice (It is almost exactly like NYC, but not as good cause it is mostly French). The onlny qualm I had about Montreal was that everyone there was French. Other than that, the city was really similar to NYC (but a little cleaner) with great people and great places. Our hotel was in fact right next to Chinatown, which was basically 3 blocks of Chinese resturants. So, conforming with my parent's wishes, we ate there every day.

We spent most of our time in the UNDERGROUND, a series of underground passages with a bunch of stores. It is basically a huge shopping mall underground. Probably one of the best shopping places in Canada.

Lake George was really really bad. The hightlight of the locale was a lake, with rickety motels strewn about around it. Nothing much to say about that.

Now that I finally have some time off, there is a bunch of work to be done (Damn summer reading). I hope everyone had a great summer and continues to enjoy their few weeks vacation, because come September, hell will be back!
