Blog Idea Clearing Upper post

Hey, I broke my specialty computer drawing pen yesteday so I'm having a bit of technical difficulty.  It's a specialty item and I've really been struggling to locate a shop that sells it in Vienna.  No joke, I went to the manufacturers website and found that one shop that carries their product in all of Vienna.  KKK Computer Technologies.  So the Jew spent his entire morning so far wandering the streets of Vienna asking people where the hell he could find the KKK.  I couldn't find the shop, which may be a good thing.  Anyway, so I'm just going into the ol' bag of ideas I just never posted.    Here are a bunch from my Mont Blanc Trek... Also, If anyone knows anything about opening a breakfast/brunch restaurant in Paris or has about fifty thousand Euros just lying around and can't think of what the hell to do with them...let me know.  


•We were staying at a mountain refuge one night during the Mont Blanc hike and had some time to kill between dinner and bed. A few of us decided to play Charades.  Paulina, the girl from Moscow,  was on a team with this one other girl.  The subject was movies, and the title was "Ghostbusters"   She was able to figure out the first part "Ghost" with no problem.   But after several failed attempts of  "busting" down a door for the hint, the girl acting started pointing at her chest with the idea of relating  the word "bust."  Paulina, not being so familiar with American pop culture, screams out in a confused tone "Oh...um.....Ghost-Boobies? "   We all started dying laughing.  That would be one hell of a porn. 


•Also, It never gets old when the girl from Moscow is hiking extremely fast in front of you, to constantly tell her  "Slooow down, you're Russian."   


•A women on my hiking trip,  who studied at a top school in Massachusetts for several years overheard me talking about Boston and said to me..


"Oh, I looove boston.  I have a number of scholarly friends that live there." 

"I have a bunch of friends there too," I said, "but mine just get drunk and watch the celtics."


That's What she said's.....yaaayy


It was the last day of the hike...one of the guides Matt, my buddy Andy and myself had fallen to the back of the group.  We were only a few hundred yards from the end of the trail and feeling a great comradery after the week.  So one of us said..."All three of us should finish at the same time"


I was hiking up a part where the path was a bit narrow.  Someone moving a bit quicker than me was trying to pass and they yelled "I'm coming up the rear"


After a break from hiking, we had all put our backpacks on and were ready to keep moving.  One of the girls packed all her stuff, but forgot to put her water bottle back.  Since it's a pain to take the pack off again, the girl asked someone to put the bottle back for her and suggested a certain pocket...."There's already something in that slot, I'll put it in a different one."
