LA to Ohio - Omaha

Bob and I are on a trip across the country, from Los Angeles (The Angles of the Hypotenuse, from the French) to Ohio. Right now we're in Omaha, Nebraska. Last night we slept on and off in the car instead of a hotel or camping. That means we drove from Los Angeles to Omaha with only the briefest of stops in Las Vegas (The Vegetarian Cuisine, from the French again) and Greeley, Colorado. Some lessons I've learned:

- There's a good chance that if you are standing still in a casino, a man will approach you and tell you that he is high on both ecstacy and coke and then offer you both.
- A cattle farm with thousands of cattle in a small space smells like tens of thousands of pounds of cow shit, in the form of tiny mountains. The smell stays in your mouth for several miles.
- Nebraska is boring and flat. Utah and the Western side of Colorado are pretty, unless it's dark.

There are plenty of pictures to check out. Seth has some great ones up already.

August Already

I've been busy. We just opened a new frickin' store. And it's sexy like a new car that you shouldn't have paid so much for but you love it anyway. I promise more later today.

I can't tell you how good The Illusionist looks. And if you're anything like me, and you watched TMNT with awe and reverence as a child, then you don't want to miss the trailer for their new movie, which looks a good deal better than Transformers, ick. Thanks Michael Bay. Ok, more to come.
