"The Most Beautiful Place I've Been"

"This is the most amazing view I've ever had"... "It's so beautiful that it's kind of difficult to explain with words"... "It's a bit tricky to get here, it's a bit dangerous, but when you get here it's the most beautiful place on earth." "It's s

Visiting Old ______

I had the dream again last night; the same dream I have had for countless nights; the dream that haunts my waking hours. I am on a packed rush hour bus travelling through a busy city centre and I am naked from the waist down, save for a pair of mud

Economics101 and pander demic commercial air travel.....

New York Trip Preparations - Part 4

As you might know by now, I am set to go to New York in less than two months. I have run into a small complication: The person I am supposed to visit, isn't responding to any of my messages. I was promised a message a few weeks ago, but that never ca

Going abroad to meet a broad...

Long distance relationships have their risks at any level. I've known lots of people who have traveled domestically a few hundred miles only to be disappointed... Would 10,000 miles increase your odds of finding love? Of course not. My suggestio

BMW Isetta 'reboot'

Yesterday, I was changing the mailing address for my car insurance and the advertisement of the company website had a modern looking vehicle (with LED headlights) that reminded me of the BMW my family owned in the 1960's Today, I did some research f

Midwest Guy In New York City

I want to travel soon!

At work earlier today, there was an ad on the radio about travelling, and the sound of bagpipes came on, which made me think about just how much I miss Scotland. Then, I though to myself "I should really go to Glasgow again at some point next year".

Rain, what's it all about?

You can be walking along one minute, and everything is fine, then suddenly water starts falling on you. And we just accept it without question. Sometimes it seems that people will stand for anything.

Kokomo... there's a mouse in the house!

Afternoon storms rolled in Thursday and Friday... raining so hard the weather service issued flood warnings in parts of South Florida. I was on the phone with customer service for a cabinet company in Canada and asked how their weather was... "Blizza

The Peoples' Republic of China.....

Great people and land. But my long term interest in visiting once more, this time to teach and to learn the language, is waning, as I watch Hong Kong. The Party bosses simply seem most interested in a gross misbalance betwen putting food in mouths, a

Going on a holiday with a friend!

I met someone a long time ago. Years, in fact. I met her at a party through my roomie and his then-girlfriend, who is my friends sister. At first I thought she hated me, but we got to talking, and she's super chilled out and a lot of fun to be with.

Memories...

One of the bloggers here, commented about dreaming live and dead people, and his experience, kinda reminded me of this diary entry from several years ago, and then I realised, this December it's all happening again. How creepy a coincidence can be!

New York Trip Preparations - Part 3 (and a small correction to Part 2)

I have finally met my goal regarding the amount of dollars that I am bringing with me to the US, since I went and got $600 today, bringing my total up to $1003. In my last blog on the subject, I falsely claimed, that I only needed $550 to reach $1003

Americans - your money is weird!

I went to the local money exchange agency, Forex, and I got $50. I am now home, and I decided to take a closer look at them. They feel weird. The Danish currency feels smooth and paper-like, while the American one feels rough and coarse. Like sand
