209 Red Balloons
Hi!
The house is almost ready for civilized society, and all that needs to be done is the sending of cards with the new address. Physical cards, the ones that go in the mail, of course, because we don't have "teh intar-web" at the house which also needs a name. How does one name a house? How did the name of the Zoop House come about? I will meditate on this.
(Note to self: apparently the Surfboard 5100 is the modem to score for later. Informed.)
Not much happening except for the Fair, which is an event very much like every other fair ever held in the midwest. Lots of fried food (peppers, onions, oysters, sandwiches), mullets (I counted 209), novel excuses for commercial art (cow made of buttah), expensive rides (US$30 to be launched out of a giant slingshot) and other exciting delights. The Iowa state fair is a good time, but I'm not sure I would ever want to go again.
