off to copper canyon

By anders pearson 16 Oct 2004

in austin right now. leaving in a few minutes for copper canyon with lani and her russian friend. we don’t really know how we’re getting there, what we’re doing when we get there and none of us speak any spanish. should be interesting.

there was a great tragedy today. lani and i went out to get some lunch. my camera was still in my bag so i didn’t bring it with me for once. naturally, on the way to lunch, we spotted a ninja on a bicycle. i’m totally serious. but no one will ever believe us because i have no photographic evidence.

oh, and yesterday while i was in airport limbo, i saw Jon Stewart (from the Daily Show) on CNN’s Crossfire up on the DC airport screens (with a weird lag of a few seconds between the audio and video. it was awesome. he just tore into the hosts for their part in the downfall of american TV journalism. if you missed it, the transcript is worth a read.

anyway, i’ll be back in a week if we don’t get kidnapped by banditos.
