JUST LIKE ALIENS FROM MARS - WE KNOW YOU'RE OUT THERE!
Another week, another MONDAY! YEAH, Monday Night Futball! (soccer). Okay, so it's not the Oakland Raiders (the GREATEST team of all time), but it is on Monday night, it is a sport (sort of), and they do show it on TV in all the bars. As long as we don't have to watch that loser "Beckham" and his whore wife, "Posh Spice" it's all good, right? Besides, we're in Spain so we have to fit in and act like locals. It's like we always say, "to get along, you go along." That's us exactly - low key, quiet, passive, yada, yada, yada.
Speaking of passive, WHAT'S WITH ALL OF YOU ILLITERATE READERS OUT THERE? (Is that an oxymoron, "illiterate reader?"). We know that hundreds (actually thousands) of you are at least looking at the pictures because we get web statistics daily, but why don't you ever post your thoughts and comments? Look, you're never gonna pass the English part of your GED exam if you don't practice your writing skills. Besides, the 2008 Riding4Beer World Tour (sponsored by Budweiser!) is a "community" event. It's not just about us, except that we're the ones that get to do the world touring and the beer drinking - sucks to be us! Come on! Budweiser and us wanna hear from you! Post your ideas, your thoughts, even your advice (like we've ever followed anyone's advice). Just a reminder, Kevin's Aunt Jackie (it's her birthday today - she's 147 years old) reads this site so don't say anything f'ing offensive or it'll get edited - otherwise pour your hearts out!
Folks, we're still in Spain and we're still in Cordoba. We're cooling our heels here for a few days on our way to the southern tip of the country and the Straits of Gibraltar so we can cross over into North Africa. But, like most things in life, it's not easy and timing is everything. We are having to coordinate train travel from here to Algeciras, Spain, then a ferry crossing to Tangiers, Morocco, then onward train travel towards Casablanca, Fez and Marrakesh (yup, the "Marrakesh Express!"). It's actually pretty easy though since we only have to communicate in Spanish, French and Moroccan, utilize dollars, euros and diners (Moroccan) and cross two time zones and three countries in the span of about 12 hours. Look, we're just not smart enough to put all that together rapidly so each day we drink a little beer, we work on a leg of the journey, we drink a little more beer, then we drink a little more beer, then...
ONLY 2 PICS TODAY - TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES WITH THE CAMERA (long story) MORE PICS TOMORROW!
Why couldn't we just eat at McDonalds? Too bad - we'd buy this book, but it's in English!

Who cares what language the book was in? Is anyone really going to read any of the words?

Dear Prof and Honorable Wife
Having had the pleasure of attending two of your classes we are blowen away by your informative blogs. Needless to say each day is a new adventure and as we read we feel as if we are sitting beside you sharing this trip around the world. Go Kevin and Stacy Go! And yes, we do drink Bud.

Correction: your Aunt Jackie is 151 yrs.old. She lies about her age. I do know she is older than me. She doesn't actually get to follow your blog as she is usually about 6 Budweisers past her computer-ability to function. I usually tell her about your adventures and translate all the dirty stuff so she still thinks you are both pure. Poor soul.

OK, OK I have been busy trying to make enough money from renting your single-wide trailer to a couple of REALLY nice girls from "7th Heaven Strip Club" (Marsha could not keep up with demand if you know what I mean), to help pay for your rent-to-own furniture. Now that I know your approximate return date I have got to get 'em out in time.
