dare i go for a ride in the open topped double decker tourist bus?

let's see if this is a little easier to read...what can i say, i like small fonts.

i'm off to play tourist today as i've feel i accomplished many mundane things in the past few days...job apps, banking, fighting with mobile companies...and i need a day off. thinking of wandering down to the tate and checking out the summer of love show. i think its going to turn out to be a beautiful day so i might just park myself in a park and read. the joys of being unemployed in summertime.

i went to see charlie and the chocolate factory with sam last night. it was SO bizarre and wonderful. very whimsical and dark as can only be expected from tim burton and johnny depp. but i kept laughing to myself - well actually out loud - because willy wonka's character played by depp has definite goldmember/mike myers qualities. he's says "yah" and "really" just like him. i couldn't contain myself.

so reminders of canada are everywhere you see. in movies, conversations at pubs about neil young, realizing that everything i bought at ikea was red...

alright. i'm going to go get me some culture.

Much better and readable colors!

Take a look at www.skype.com for free long distance calls over the internet. It's very easy to set up. (my Mom has it...)

Please have a fresh hoppy Guinness for me!

yes, i'm happy we're all happy now with the colours and fonts...

beatles stuff? eventually. i'm actually thinking the weird yellow submarine bus MUST be the way to go.

all in good time.
