The Final Countdown

Reading this blog is not advisable if you are prone to getting migraines when reading spelling and grammatical errors. To tell you the truth, i don't buy into the social norms and conformity's that others might find common place or second nature. That was a lie, i'm just not a very good speller and grammar, well, grammar, yeah... grammar can take a hike! So good luck you "your using the wrong you're" and "punctuation matters" people, its going to be an uphill climb. I promise to try Jane.

I want to thank all of you for your warm words, your financial contributions and your warnings, often repeated, grim stern warnings in fact that i better come back alive and if possible in one piece. I will do my very best. Whether it was a hug, a text, card, a donation or some sage advise about the best Laotian beer brand, it's all been greatly appreciated. I hope you all know that all ready. Your helping me take this just a little bit furthur :) Carol Haraden gets a special mention in the "thank you" section. Without her home cooking, her encouraging "you can's" and her generous wealth sharing habits i would not be going, plain and simple. I also want to thank Oreida for making the tatter tots lesser known rival, the "crispy crown" and Mackenzie's hot dogs, without you both, these last few days would have been a lot less tastier and patriotic.

Here are the places i am going and about when you can expect i will be rolling into the neighborhood.
