        I didn't know New Yawkers could be star struck, well unless you meet Russle Crow.

        I hear Woody Allen eats in New York! Do you think if I met him and asked him to say something funny he would?

That picture was incredible evidence that a ninja was at the parade. I am so upset I never found candy in my pocket.

  I have to confess CM, I borrowed your nunchucks. Didn't quite know how to use them properly though. Now I'm seeing stars.

      Uncle Dave you could not possible hurt yourself using nunchucks. Unless the nun had been hitting the alter wine a little too heavy and was throing up.
      Next time I'll show you how to use them.
