Let's make 2014 a peaceful one.
End the wars, stop road rage, and if you can't be a friend, at least don't be mean.

Mall visit
So, I visited the local mall yesterday to buy some luggage. Wow, the place was still busy this many days after Consumer Xmas.
Well two inventions need to be applauded.
Rolling wheels, especially the 360 degree kind, and
the hand grip that makes it work.
Happy New Year.

Pot Tourism
Seems Breezy is quite busy in Jamaica. According to an Associate Press report earlier this fall (and just published locally here?), ganja tourism is hot, hot, hot.
The report notes this website and while a bit slow, perhaps from all the current hits, you can find out more info.
Finally, before taking of the tours, you will need to smoke a spliff to prove you are not a cop.

another form of Toursism
I think I want to travel the world to check out these Mythical Lake Monsters. But wait, there is more! I like this site since you can search by type (ghost towns) or geographic location (Italy).
