Update this Bin Laden

Well we still havent caught Bin Laden so I cant say that it has been a good week. One day we will feel real freedom from terror again. So its been nice and hectic around here. The vernisage was exactly as I thought but instead of getting drunk alone with Kate on wine I got drunk on beer with Kate and Conor. The shirts all looked awesome, I already sold a few of mine but they are selling them expensive = $40 after taxes. That kind of sucks but oh well, I didnt meat anyone but I got on MusicPlus so any teenage queebster who likes music now knows who I am... The shirts are all up in the Eaton Center this month too (during race weekend) so I expect to make a bit of coin.

Went on the most stressful camp trip ever. We went to get away for 4 days in the Adirondacs and instead spent 2 days trying to negotiate a new job. I got the job but only after camping out by a pay phone basically and going through different channels of comunication. We had to come home early so I could start yesterday. So anyways NY tourist people know jack shit. They gave us all this bogus info but we found a stellar camp site right on a beach all to ourselves which was nice. No grocerie stores where we were so we had a gas station food supper. Mmmm... canned green beans. Had a shitty night driving back and forth between the pay phone and the campfire but the scenery was nice. Next day we hit Lake Placid which is sweet, did a 5 mile straight up hike, used more pay phones and then drove home in the rain. Awesome camp trip, there goes my summer holiday.

Came home, told my other job that I am cutting down my hours drastically, watched them kind of freak, went to my greek barber who took vengence on some old greek/canadian rivalry by giving me a horrible and very short haircut. Great to start a new job looking like a nazi-lepper. Then went to my new part time job as assistant art director at The Mirror. Its a weekly cultural paper in Montreal that has a circulation of 280,000 so screw all those people working for 'real' papers who have circulations of 100,000 (you know who Im talking about Times & Transcripters). So its been a horribly stressful few days.

I cant wait to go have a shred session with the bike gang to just chill out. I dont know when Ill have the time though. Working for the next 14 days straight, building 3 websites right now and hopefully doing designs for a skate company. Weeeee. At least my theory for finding work has paid off, stop caring and stop trying and something will come your way.

Congratulations! Maybe this means I'll also have a new and exciting job coming my way as I'm now retiring from the thought of even looking. I'll have to check the paper out.

As for your shirts, will they still be up on the July 1st weekend? Some friends and I were thinking of making a trip to Montréal for the Jazz Festival. We're still trying to work out the details on who is going and who is stuck driving, and are we bringing people's children. I hate when plans get difficult; much like those camping plans of your's and kate's.

anyway... congratulations and don't forget to let me know about the shirts.

Hey hey PP, thanks for the congrats. You will find something too as soon as you truly give up. The loss of goals and objectives is the only true road to success.

Thats cool you may be in town for the Spazz Fest. Its a pretty good time. I can meet you and show you how to drink a Montreal beer and I will teach those kids who are coming with you how to snort Montreal coke. The shirts shoud still be on sale that weekend down at the Eaton Center down town. I think they will be available for internet orders too at some time.

The cat is dying of heat, I have to go squirt gun him.
