My 30th Birthday Part II

My dream came true and they opened a car museum in philadelphia! Didn't you hear what i said!? oh, you don't care. Anyway, people were telling me a car museum opened and i was like, "that's cool, it's probably nascar or something but that's cool." But I looked at the website and it wasn't nascar. Heck, there were barely even any american cars there. Just fine, vintage, european sportscars. my favorite!Hey, where is this place? Oh, i know! I think we just go this way a couple blocks. It's hot out here! I'm not familiar with this part of town. Maybe it's down this way.We found it! And it's even open!
Alpha Romeo! so far so good!I don't know what to do. What happens when all your dreams come true?



Cool! Gullwing mercedes. Syd Mead owns one. I hope i can get one someday. I promise to take care of it!


A pair of matching bmws. The more cars look like toys the better. These look just like toys so they rule.A super rare cobra coupe. You can tell it's real because it's kind of rough and rusty.



Another alpha. How elegant.



This place is fun. Auburn Speedster. Heartbreaking isn't it?



Another Auburn. Wow. It's so beautiful i'm getting a toothache


Here we are fighting the crowds in the cafeteria. Philly is not a real big car town.




Lady mechanics in the girls bathroom. (emily took it. I didn't go in there)



Another 300sl. I like this one even more than the first one!




Jaguars. I'm shitting right now.



A very streamline peugeot. I'm still going.



A 1957 Ferrari Testa rossa. I have no more shit to give. I'm all out of shit.




A very lowwwwww Aston Martin. Thrilling


Bugatti. The photo speaks for itself. I wish i got my senior picture taken in this car instead of leaning against a tree.


Thanks Emily for experiencing this with me. I know you enjoyed it just as much as i did.

My 30th Birthday Part I

I had a great, classic birthday. "What kind of brand new drug did you do for your birthday?" you might ask. I didn't do any drugs! We didn't even got to a bar! We didn't even go to any peep shows! We didn't even hide any cameras in any sororities! It was really fun though. Ice cream parlor and arcade. See? classic!
First we went to The Franklin Fountain. I may have talked about it before. It's old fashioned. The early 1900's must have been the golden age of sweets. (no, i don't know that cause i was there. i wasn't born until 1978 jerk!) A lot of ice cream parlors look like they're inspired by that period. Barber shop quartets too. I notice little things sometimes.
I felt like number one because strangers kept wishing me happy birthday.

Here I'm holding up 3 fingers to represent my 30 years. the fact that it's also the sign of the gang i go to on tuesdays and weekends is a coincidence.


ON TO THE ARCADEI like this kind of basketball. I'm not letting anyone down .This is going great. i didn't even day dream and drift off like when i play real basketball.
Head to head competition. Catch the fever.
Hmmmmm. Ipod, wii, dyson, flat screen.......



We did see some strippers but they were so small they don't count.
