This is AMERICA!

So we've had a long running debate about whether it's right for me to refer to myself as American. Chris and Andy say I can't because all of north and south american people are "Americans." I say I can, and fill in the nationality on my customs forms as American.

So since then I've been coming up with arguments for why its ok for me to say I'm American. For example, the excellent and liberalish radio program This American Life is about the USA, not north and south america. This has led to some comical conversations. For example:

Dave: what about Coming To America.
Chris: Whoopi Goldberg was good in that.
Andy: No Eddie Murphy was in that movie.
Dave: You just confused Whoopi Goldberg and Eddie Murphy!!!!
All: bwahahahaha

Have you ever eaten...

A guinea pig? Me neither! Oh wait, I just ate one.



It tasted pretty much how you would expect.

Photo Dump

A photo dump is where you just post a lot of pics at once without any central unifying theme. It's a blogging thing.


This is a choripon. It is sausage. I have 8 a day.


These are the names of some Jews killed in a huge terrorist attack here in the early 90s. Eerie! Who knew there were Jews named Fabian?!


These are just flowers with a little nature boy statue.


The Bitchmobile


Danielle came. My first picture of her she was chasing a feral cat. Typical Petrilli! She left yesterday.


Tango dancers.


Danielle being an un-PC Muslim person.


This was a paddle boat we too. It was either a) broken b) we were bad at steering or c) Americans are too fat for paddle boats here. Regardless, we were horrible at driving it and when we crashed on land, I jumped out and abandoned ship. Then I was able to take some nice pics. I never did get on that paddle boat again!

Now I'm in Peru at elevations of over 10,000 feet. We all have mild altitude sickness. I slept for 12 hours last night, which is very unlike me.
