I've never had Orangina. I'm not sure this will change that:

For bad movie night: my place @ 9:00, please.

Bad movie at Andy's tonight. Dr. Nick was supposed to pick a movie, but he had to "save lives" or "experiment with children" or something, so the pick will be a mystery. Who knows what will appear on the big screen tonight...

Oh, that's right. I do. Never mind.

I don't watch Comedy Central roasts save for stopping briefly while flipping channels, and I've had some pretty horrible experiences when I have (George Takei roasting William Shatner -- the short version: "I'm gay. I wanted to have sex with every man I ever worked with on Star Trek, and every man on the stage right now.")

But Norm MacDonald roasting Bob Saget is great. (via PvP)

The first part of that clip sounds kinda like MIA's track "Boyz". Is this where she got the rhythm and such from?

I like how the only dude in the whole video wearing a turban is the cab driver. Is that racist? hahahaha

What the hell was with the Sister Act shit and all the american flags? That was a terrible, terrible video.

This is still my favourite:

Open invitation to a get together:

Where: Brewster's Southside 23rd ave location
When: 8:00 PM tonight, August 23, 2008. (Sorry for the short notice)
Why: Just because

I came home to my Mom watching this on DVD. It blew my mind.

Hey all! I am in Dubai and while Africa was fascinating and beautiful and just generally super cool I am happy to be back where the per capita income is a touch higher because that is really hard to see day in and day out. I think this is where people get more involved in charity work (but the majority of people just go home and forget about it. Or at least not think about it.)

I did indeed make it to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro and that was beautiful. I think that's the last of the 7 peaks I attempt though. Walking *down* a slight slope at that altitude still leaves you out of breath. 6 of the 8 of us made it to the top, one walked back down because of headache and upset stomach and one had to be carried halfway down the mountain in a stretcher. Which is even more scary as she remembers almost nothing of the 24 or so hours she spent at her highest altitude and she really didn't seem that sick to us at the time. I saw lots of animals on safari. Tomorrow we are going to ride camals in the desert, which sounded like more fun before I realized what 45 degrees actually feels like. I think this is going to end in some heat stroke for me (or sunstroke, whichever is the one where you get dizzy and sick feeling and not the one where you might die. I always forget). Then off to London for four days then home!

Hope you're all having a good August. I kinda feel like it's still July in Edmonton, even though it's August here, and that I still have a good month or so of summer left for when I get home. That's gonna be a shock!

Happy Birthday to Jesse and Al and happy anniversay to Matt and Keri.
