Haven't posted on this thing in a long while. Might as well since I am in Louisville with nothing to do at night. Anyways, Louisville is really nice. Well the weather was nice today and everything is really green around here. There is a lot of damage because I came in just after they had hurricane winds come through. 70 mph. damn. There were gigantic trees ripped out from these winds. I can't even imagine how strong those winds must have been to uproot such monstrosities. Also the power was out when I got in, which was pretty sketchy driving into places that I am completely unfamiliar with. When I was on Phillips lane trying to find my hotel, after hours of travel, I see a dead end coming up which ended up being a huge tree lying across the road with an open cable wire lying across the street also. The second day I went through central park and it was beautiful and nice to breathe in fresh air. I found a tree with honeycomb in the middle of it. A tree also crushed two cars. It is hilarious that they sell beef jerky in dip tins, like fucking training wheels for chewing tobacco; plus I got a special container that holds your dip and has an inlet where you can spit your dip into. Ridiculous. The gas stations here list Unleaded, Deisel, and the cheapest cigarettes. A lot of folks here are nice and a lot are retarded. This lady charged me 10 cents tax on a 19 dollar item with a 6% tax rate. Cool for me. They also have a one quarter deposit to use the shopping carts. People at work here are pissed basically because they are all losing their jobs and we are taking them over. Not our call, it was the governments. Anyways, that's all for now Louisville football game tomorrow followed by Louisville slugger tour this weekend.
