Don't Give Up Walking Cause You Gave Up Shoes

Here is a picture of a dirty ashtray. Have you noticed how you don't see ashtrays out in public much anymore?

So, my original plan for tonight was to stay home and geek out watching movies and playing video games. But now things have changed, and I'm off on a road trip to Fort Madison with my friend K. We've been talking about going down there forever. My friend C. took over his dad's bar last Fall, and I still haven't gone to see him or it. I figured since I've had an extra day or two this weekend, I'd finally quit being such a lame-ass and check out the scene.

I promise I'll get around to posting my Saturday scavenger photos and I really will try harder to write a more interesting post in the next day or two. It shouldn't be too hard, after these last couple.

Okay, I still have to get ready, grab my iPod, gas up my car, inhale some caffeine, grab K. and ease on down the road to Fort Madison - the land of prisons and cheesy strip clubs and, and, and...What all else is down in Fort Madison? I guess after the prison and the strip clubs, what more do you need?

So, yeah. Maybe you should wish me luck, just in case.

Brave girl...that town freaks me out a bit now. of course the last time I was there it was a very sad reason.
BTW, anyone with my last name in that town is a relative. My dad grew up there and it seems I find more people related to me every time I head there...which is so stereotypical small town Iowa.

I gotta say, when you dangle Ft. Madison like that, you force me feel like I won the lottery with the Istanbul road trip.

I'm SO grateful for your last title. Thanks. I love that song.

Wasn't it Beavis who said that "Prison's cool!" Or was it Butt-head?
