OK, so it is my turn to write this blog now, and the first thing I have to say is that Europe is just not all that it's cracked up to be. The people speak another language, possibly Dutch, they eat wierd stuff, and they have little or no concept of personal space. In fact, I woke up after spending the night on a park bench and this homeless guy and his dog were splitting a falafel right on top of me, and they were using no napkins of any kind! How rude. Also, once, in France I think, I saw a hunchback, and quite possibly a dwarf. Could have been the same person, but my spatial perspective was all messed up from staring up the belfries of decrepit churches all day. The National Health Care doctors here tell me I have the wickedest case of Knave Neck they have ever seen. But, Athens? Athens was by far the worst. The Parthenon is way more run down than the one in Nashville, the gyros lack the proper amount of tahini sauce, and the democracy is sub-par. I did like the people, or at least I liked that one guy who fell down from dehydration. He was a hoot. As this will probably be my last blog entry once my darling wife finds out what I have been up to, let me add one thing. Hey! Greece! Make a decent lamb chop, and then talk to me about culture!
