Love this report so far.

Everything I eat is from the Earth, right. I am what I eat straight up Earth, right. Nothing but a walking sack of Earth nice to meet you how do ya do. Guess what. Ya you're one too.

When I was a kid my sister hit me with one of her tap shoes. Talk about hurt

Waffle ice cream sandwiches. I wasn't really a fan of the pirogis or the pizza, but those ice cream sandwiches were fantastic. The traveling taco wasn't bad either.

It's a shame a lot of you kids weren't around before all the crazy stuff started to happen. I'll always think of him as his 80's version, R.I.P.

^ Champs once again! Bring on football

Whew, what a game. LSU found a way to come back and win. Texas is now 39 - 1 when leading after 8 innings. Can't wait for game 2

Love the report so far. One of these days, I'll make an overseas trip.

Tiger Woods is just plain sick.

Today is the first day of hurricane season.

Just saw Sacha Baron Cohen drop down right onto Eminem with his exposed bum, funny stuff.

Thanks for the award, I'll be sure to frame it and put it in my awards case. Poor Spidey, and I think he even molested Drew

It was awesome getting to meet and hang out with you guys for most of the trip. I gotta say, it's been a great experience for me on these TPR trips. On the Midwest trip, I knew nobody going into it, and somehow manged to get into a good group starting on day one. When that trip was over, there was definitely an emptiness after having 10 or 11 days with the same group. Then for the East Coast trip, I had a few friends from the first trip, but managed to meet even more on this trip, and that just made it so much better. I didn't think I'd be able to top the first trip, and this one was just as good, if not better. So for any of you out there in TPR land who are considering doing a trip, . . . doit. It's definitely worth it, no matter how many questions/issues you may have. It will be one of the best weeks or two of your life.

Stupid Lakers. OK, now, who's ready for football season??!! USC will continue to be overrated, while the SEC will win another title. And the Raiders will still suck!

Good to see the refs continue to be atrocious. I know it's been going both ways, but those last 2 fouls on Nene were a joke. And how many times does Carmelo have to get smacked before something is called? All this crappy officiating is making me not want to watch the finals at all, no matter what 2 teams are involved.

So will Nike keep running those commercials when it's Carmelo vs Dwight Howard in the finals?

Paradise - 311

I'll be the token drunk TPR poster for right now. It's 3 am and I can't believe I'm this hammered. I didn't think I drank that much, but apparently I was wrong. The food did not slow me down. Just a few rants. . . . Notre Dame . . . sucks. Get over yourselves and join the Big 10. A national TV contract doesn't mean as much as it did 15 years ago; all the big conferences have TV games. You're just not that good anymore, and it's time to admit it to the rest of the world. USC. . . sucks. So much hype for just one BCS trophy. Peter Caroll may have the best job in the world, but he seems to not be able to put it all together. Talent only takes you so far, and when you go up against teams that have equal talent, coaching wins the games. There's a reason you only have 1 crystal ball football trophy. Have fun playing in your 50,000+ stadiums on the road. Try 90,000+ rapid SEC fans. You have absolutely no idea. those 45,000 "rabid" Oregon fans sure do know how to make some noise. It's like listening to my mom vaccum an empty house; not that loud, dog. Have fun with those easy games, I can see how USC always looks so dominant; about 5 players they play against ever year get drafted. Great opposition, boys. How do you guys end up performing in the NFL? Not so good in the past few years. And I'm a guy who's pulling for Reggie Bush 110%'; he bleeds black and gold, and it's time to win it all. I'm ready for the ride. It's time for him to be the superstar that he is, and we all know he can be. It's time to put up or shut up. BCS supporters - you know a championship can and will work, but you refuse to fix the problem. It's all about the $$$, so have fun with that. Sorry, normally I'd have more, but I'm ready for bed. enjoy all the rants my friends, happy Memorial Day! hail to the Donkeys

Great report, the ride looks great. Now I have to find a way to get to next year's west coast bash

^ Yeah, a few of us ended up back over there. Everyone else is dressed for clubbing, then there's this group of coaster guys in shorts and shirts. Definitely very interesting. Club Pimp

Boulder Dash was one of the great surprises for me. I didn't really know much about it, but I thought it was better than El Toro. That last set of bunny hills were just insane. The only bad part was that I rode it so many times in a row and screamed so much, I had a big headache when it was all over. It was all worth it, though.

I don't think we did the drop tower, at least I didn't. That rest at the hotel was definitely needed, and those kitchen sinks took their toll on me. One thing I really remember is the change of atmosphere at the bar from "restaurant/bar" in the daytime to Club LaVela at night.

I felt the exact same way. I was just about done before that ERT, and almost decided to skip it, but I'm glad I didn't.

^ you're one of the lucky ones

My big theory is that the "incident" causes our losties to get shot back to 2007. If that's the case, shouldn't Rose and Bernard go with them? Assuming that's the case, then they can't be Adam and Eve in the caves from season 1.
