I've been there twice.
Toured Machu Picchu, and climbed to the peak of Huayna Picchu.
Beautiful view.

I might go back with her next year for a couple of weeks.
(It would be the first time I've flown since 2000)

They just don’t add the secret ingredients that you use.

I think I would have to lay of the cigars and drop a few pounds before I could do that.

Nah, this one is pretty calm when I shave him. I doubt he can move after I bash him in the head when he tries to run...

I've always thought that if there's anything to the reincarnation theory, I'd like to come back as an animal. Knowing MY luck, I'd come back as your cat.

He has a pretty good life here, we treat him well. The occasional hair cut, about twice a year, and the bath that follows are pretty much the only bad things that happen to him. We did go through a rough spell with him where he was trying to kill me... he would dart out in front of my feet in the dark, or lay in the middle of the hallway for me to trip over... I started watching for him after a week of this, and started punting him across the room... he started getting the heck out of the way.

Laces OUT, Dan!!!

Our friends in Anchorage have a maker they call a Prima Donna. It cost them over 2000 bucks (they have more money than sense).

Id like to come back as some sort of large bird so I could use people as target practice.

We used to give our cats baths but I never thought of shaving the long haired one. Actually, they were our kids cats but we got stuck with them after they had moved out. Who knew cats could live 17 years.
