Birthday and weapon of MASS destruction!!!!
On my birthday, after finishing with the lab and since it is a public holiday (hurray, American celebrate my birthday by declairing it public holiday!!! Just kidding, it is labour day as well)I went to the up market shopping centre "Legacy Village"
The first store i see was cheesecake factory and i love cheescake. So i thought this is a good start, i could buy myself a cake. But they only serve full lunch menu and they dont serve cake only :( got rejected by the shop since i dont want to pay US$25 dollor for lunch just to get a cake.
So i started walking around. Found this sport shop call Dick sport center
The lower level sell, nike shoes, bags, football all the boring stuff. But when i get up to level 1, everything changes. They sell air rifle and i spend 20 mins or so there, then i see Bow and arrows on the shelf!!!!! WOW!!!!!!
Then i found CrossBow. A father was buying one for his son (i will say about 15 plus ) and the sale personel was stringing the crossbow...overheard that hunting season is in oct....
Follow by real rifle and shot guns. I heard one mum, saying this to her two kids of 10 plus year old. "ok grab that box of ammunition and we can go shop for a gun for your brother" WOW..WOW....WOW.....
Look at the price of a CARTON of ammunition only US$4.99 and US$2.99, cheaper than my box of shushi!!!!!! (read taste of cleveland for price of shushi)
After spending more than 3 hours there look over and over the rifles,knieves and crossbow, i decide to leave. This is the outside of the shop.
Have fast food for lunch, found anything missing???? Yes she forgot to give me my potato chips :( so after i finished with these, i walk to the counter and requested for my missing fries
Took bus home and saw a rabbit at the backyard of the place i am staying. Can you spot the rabbit? (it is on the right side of the metal pole)

Heya,
sounds like you're having a bit of fun. so will you now take up hunting? with your military training you should be an expert.
sushi's about the same price here too. can't believe how expensive things are. we haven't seen any rabbits around, but there's squirrels everywhere. one of our old housemates said that if you take nuts with you and hold them out, the squirrels will come and take them from you.
happy belated birthday! :D
cleveland ain't sydney...judging by the food...
and US gun culture's just crazy, you should watch Michael Moore's doco "Bowling Columbine" if u havn't. In it a bank was giving out free rifles for ppl who sign up for a bank account haha.
if it makes u all feel better, i've been having instant noodles alot (and waking up at 5 am) and feeling strangely hallucinatory.
Didn't know u had a blog till yesterday.. Great effort put in ya.. ^^
