Oh yeah.  You're in the office while I'm...not!

Damn, you win hands down.

They've all gone now though.  That means I can do whatever I like!

I bet you can't look fondly back upon you memories of seeing the space shuttle 'Enterprise' at the Air & Space museum near Dulles Airport. So you can't do anything can you. Hah!

Did I mention that I recently saw the space shuttle 'Enterprise' at the Air & Space museum near Dulles Airport?

Don't admit defeat so easily!

He will need to procure evening nourishment as well... you get to rest until that happens :) I still think you win :)

My main [fond?] memories of San Francisco are the following three occurances-

• Having the end of my hotdog bitten off (luckily not accompanied by my fingers) by a huge swooping seagull at the docks in San Francisco
• Walking near the Messenger Building in San Francisco and a pigeon falling from a building and hitting the pavement with a thud in front of me and it laying there doing death twitches
• Walking past a man on Mission Street with a huge cat balanced on his shoulder

I always seem to remember the 'odd' things that happened...

I don't have pictures of the odd things, but I thought seeing as Aodan likes the 'bigger than' pictures I'd post a few more


Me bigger than the Capitol Building in Washington DC


Me bigger than the Messenger Building in San Francisco


Me bigger than the Golden Gate Bridge on a misty day!


I think we should all now post pictures of ourselves bigger than famous monuments and landmarks.

Heh.

This is what happens when you build houses on a slope. Some idiot comes along and turns his camera on 45 degrees and makes your house look silly!



And I can be bigger than the US Government, too:



And I'm much, much bigger than the White House. Honestly, it was tiny, tiny tiny!



At one point, Catfish actually had to hold the Washington Monument for them for a bit when the oficially designated Monument Holder snuck out for a sly fag break:



I was taller than Nelson's column once. That was a couple of years ago and I think it's grown a bit since then.

I've seen this photo before but I'd never noticed the strange stripy grey tail you seemed to have back then

That's not a tail, it's a kickstand...Ben

Come to think of it, there was a kind of muffled shouting coming from behind me for the rest of the day and i do seem to recall some difficulty walking...

The head sculpture in SF picture is weird.. it looks like Catfish is floating.. took me a second to realize she wasn't,... or maybe she is....

I don't know how I missed them before, but I just now looked at the vacation album...Karen does look like she's floating amongst the heads...It almost looks like her shadow underneath...

I envy you two getting to see the Air & Space Museum...I have got to see it someday...Did they have any F105's and F4's on display...They are the birds I worked on in the military (once again showing my age)...Ben

  Surely you're not counting yourself as a minion?  The Mighty Stead?  A minion? (In lower case mind you because minions aren't important enough to be capitalised.)

Was Tesco as cool there as it is everywhere else? (not)

Do they have Tesco in the US?

Sort of. Although we do have Walmart over here. Obly we call it Asda Walmart, or 'The Hellmouth' for short!

I went on a ghost walk last night. it was a 2 hour tour around St Ives while a man called Baba told us the various ghost stories of St Ives. It Was quite fun, but there weren't many ghosts. We had smugglers and wreckers and mutant rats and lepers and a grave robber and radioactive material but only one somewhat ropey ghost story.
