sounds like you have a wonderful journey on your hands

Man, it was awesome.

so did you have a nice vay-cay?

Man, it was awesome.

I tell you what. I could have a very nice time living in Amsterdam.

did you see anne frank's house?

what did you like about it?

I did. It was a strange thing. I'm very happy I did it but I kind of had to separate myself from the group I was with. The emotions come flooding through in a place like that. I think the most intense part of that was seeing where they had traced her growth on the wall. She literally grew up in hiding.

Everything. It was a beautiful city (with beautiful women). I'd be in great shape if I lived there because they make bicycling so easy you're a fool if you move around any other way. We rented an apartment in the Jordaan neighborhood which was a really cool section of town with great cafes and restaurants and this awesome market on Saturdays.

plus the positive attitude towards pot culture amirite?

Yeah, that was awesome but seriously way down the list on reasons to love Amsterdam.

Good to have you back, Pete. How was Scotland?

Absolutely beautiful.

And I ate like a king!

Things about Amsterdam that are better than their policy towards marijuana:

The women.
The canals.
Biking everywhere easily.
The juice.
The pancakes.
The Saturday market.
Indonesian food.

Well, I see they've got the spambot problem under control.

I was very happy with how the "Self Polluted is a swell guy" thread turned out. Started with a blunder, ended with a Bach cello suite.

Just read that one. Good job, team.

Rumor has it that Ms. Frank had to swallow her face just to keep from biting
