IRELAND
Ireland was a great time, I visited my great-grandmother in Dublin as well as my cousin in the town of Clifden in Connemarra, Galway. We drove across the country in a rental VW Bus, just like the one Edgar Smorrison lives in or the one in Cars. (I need to see that movie.) There was lots of Guinness and I only threw up once.
As an Irish person, a trip to Ireland is very meaningful and exciting. I've previously on this blog expressed a taste for Irish women. Did I check them out? Some of them. Did they check me out? All of them. I was also glad to catch up with my family. I have to recommend Kingston House Bed and Breakfast for all tourists to Clifden. I can possibly put up more of my own pictures in the future.
ABU DHABI
Abu Dhabi is a wonderful place with a rich culture and great experiances. It's completely modern, but still has hints of the ancient peoples who live here. It's a place where the east meets the west, where the new meets the old. I can still enjoy malls and swimming pools and bowling and movie theaters, which I do. The only problem is the heat. It is much much hotter here than any American could possibly even imagine. The air conditioning is thankfully top-rate. The sun is directly above this part of the world, so there's never even a cloud in the sky. The humidity is also unbearable.
I'm actually posting from Dubai. It's a very interesting city. The Wild Wadi waterpark was a real treat, and the Burj Al Arab hotel is as cool as cool. I can get free internet from the Dubai School of Government. It's only about an hour away from Abu Dhabi.
ITALY WON THE WORLD CUP
Yay! I watched some of the matches and was rooting for Italy.
MOVIES
King Kong, Benchwarmers, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, High Anxiety, Season 1 of 24. I saw a lot since I last posted. Kong was good but way too long and inconsistant. Jack Black's worst performance to date. Benchwarmers? Funny but not really a great movie. Perfect for airplanes. I saw Pirates here at the movie theater in the Abu Dhabi Mall. I was really impressed. Even better than the first one. High Anxiety is a Mel Brooks movie about Hitchcock and is really boring. I saw the whole first season of 24, which I rented from the US Embassy in Abu Dhabi. It's a great season, lots of twists and lots of action. The absolute coolest character is George Mason.
MIDDLE EAST CRISIS
There's a crisis going on here in the Middle East. Luckily I'm completely out of the way, Abu Dhabi is a long distance from Beirut. We'll all keep on praying for the victims and hoping for peace.
WALDO AWARDS
Going on hold for right now. I can say this much: The blogging MVP right now is JVarn. He's proved the be a dedicated and thoughtfull poster. JaGuns is the latest addition to my links list. She's my sister, although I know her password and wrote half of her posts.
I'm happy to be back online and look foward to posting soon! Goodbye from the Middle East!

PS: LADY IN THE WATER SUCKS!!!!!! Paul Giamatti is really making me sad.
Oh yeah, I hope u heard about Mel Gibson
He was pulled over for DWI and started yelling about how he hates Jews, THEN calls a female cop SUGER TITS!
Peace OUT
EVERYONE-I do not have an e-mail anymore. I'm not living in my permanent home. I will give it to you as soon as I can. I also have no internet unless I go to the Embassy or a phone number, screen name, or mailing address.
Paul-I heard about that. But after all, someone needs to be saying something about all the terrible things Isreal is doing to Lebanon. The President sure isn't. He's really been letting me down.
Glad to see you're doing well. Big Lee is the same old Big Lee. Not much has happened over in the U.S of A. Alex is obviously making Mel Gibson jokes. Keep updating us. Peace bro.
hope everythings goin good over there. check out my new post everyone
I believe that you hate Jon Stewart because he is liberal, and like Colbert because he is conservitave (even though he really isn't, he just pretends to be on his show to better make fun of them). But you're entitled to your opinion.
