for the record
the wifi availability here sucks goat milk peoi (this is penises in greek maybe). The only place I've found any availability is at the starbucks by my house. Apparently starbucks hires tourists because their greek was not so good though I was visibly american because greeks do not have fashion sense of hippie. Anyway, I bought a wireless service card for 6 euros and the pos would not even visit any sites that didn't end in .gr... so in a fit I got up and said look malaka I paid 6 euros to basically waste 20 minutes only to find out that even wifi is ethnocentric in greece. They did not refund me, so in an attempt to THWART THE CORPORATION I lit a cigarette right in his face (eat your heart out Leah Lewis), unfortunately they thwartthwarted me by saying "you can smoke inside." Starbucks and wifi are seriously for the birds. By the way I have figured out my pigeon story. Pigeons are trying to assimilate greek manga mentality here. Most greeks will walk directly in front of traffic being all, "nah spangster, you aint hittin this dick..." and the cars stop. Well, the pigeon tried to bust that out on me, and got kicked across his evansized face. So I have figured it out, I will continue to make war against the ego of greece via pigeons while I am here... DAAAAAAAAYAAAAAAAM beaveer
I've been kickin it with these guys Akis (literally meaning "little") Dimitris, some name starting with Ch, and Guns, who call themselves the greek Spinal Tap. These kids are seriously like this:
Akis - BJ
Dimitris - Andrew B
Ch... xekaraklepothariastike - Josh
Guns - Me
Akis and Dimitris are these two twins, and I think it was dimitris who was opening beer bottles with his teeth. Apparently greek does not have a word for "self-absorbed" and then they listed off the obvious-to-me connotations of this... Guns is a guy from australia who grew up in greece and is eloquently lewd... they also have a number of friends who I regret to admit that I forgot their names... I no longer have a digital camera because the couple has left for their island trip GOOD RIDDANCE NOW I CAN GET THE EVANS IN PEACE anyway so I will have to buy a couple disposables to take my pictures of the antics of these malakes in monastiraki...
I went to this village and had a terrible time. Apparently in the village you are supposed to relax and enjoy the weather. I can do this at portland coffee house. I want to be breaking things, and the only way I can do this is in the square in monastiraki with all these crazy characters...
BJ are you going to be in town aug 4? that is when I get into town. Even though I will be horribly jetlagged I will still drink like a fish out of water
I haven't figured out a way to get the audio online yet. That SUCKS but maybe I can get something up soon if I can get some sort of transferring device from my laptop to these computers here at WebBizi - "Let's get bizi." The greeks here have such stupid senses of humor sometimes. This was outlined to me by TAP, they were like "wow, your sense of humor is exactly like ours... this is very rare"
note: We need to get all these crazy people we met in europe to come to portland for a few days and hang out in a suite at the hilton or something and throw livestock off the balcony at hooknasties
omonia is the dirtiest place I've ever seen. And all the women have booties like bags of wet clothes. I am never going there again... monastiraki is my new home. I have also noticed that if I show people that in my wallet I only have 5 euros everyone pays for what I do. This is a convenient thing that I will continue to capitalize on.
Also this serbian guy Nebojsa is going to be hanging out with me and we may go to an island this weekend... he's kind of overly loquacious so our conversations are slightly less effective... he also never hangs out with homeless kids so he's a FAGOT
my penultimate note: Greek McDonalds is freaking effed up. They have the place where you order and then the kitchen is upstairs and invisible, and the food comes down on this retarded elevator. It's like an effed up fast food version of willy wonka's chocolate factory. They also serve two things: The Greek Mac, which is basically a big mac in a pita with a slice of lamb on top and it's freaking retarded, and TWO: McSarakosti, which is a menu they have during lent that is all vegan. That's right rob, ALL vegan (technically too, they fry everything in olive oil and whatnot...) so mcdonalds has officially capitalized on religious customs. taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat.
holla, I can't go to barcy because I'm boning d'arcy, and by that I mean I have 200 bucks left... BlAnGiN!
