This ran on the daily show the other night. Its a retarded debate, but perhaps you'd find it interesting. . .

MLK-AOK

Ok, so I stole the title from Freddie. Today I ventured out of the apartment to go get an estimate done on my car. I figured today would be the best day to go because the traffic would be the lightest. After all was said and done, $770 to get a dumb bumper replaced.

The car dealer where I got my estimate done. If you ever need body work done in the Twin Cities, go to Midway Ford on Snelling, and ask for Greg Peterson. He'll take good care of you.

Getting HBO

Late last week we decided to get HBO. This is Greg installing the new cable box. Considering how many pointless wires we had behind the TV, Greg deserves a Congressional Medal of Honor for his brave work in sorting out that tangled mess.

Technical mastermind Greg Halfond at work.

The Second Day Back

On my second day back, I needed to take the cat to the vet in the morning. The trip to the vet was uneventful, aside from a distemper booster, but on the way back I was rearended at a stop light 2 blocks from my apt. The woman was nice, but it still sucks that now I have to go get it repaired.

This is the Vet where I take my Cat. Its located South of the city.

Leaving on a Jetplane . . .

So, for those of you who haven't heard. I spent my winter break in Germany, and took many pictures to document the journey. However, my camera sadly disappeared in Cologne when I spent the night there. Two weeks later, and I still have no idea where I left it, or when it was stolen. So, there will be no pictures of Europe.

I did however get a 4.0 megapixel camera to replace the old one, and felt the need to begin getting my money's worth. Hence, I documented the trip back to Minnesota earlier this week.
