The Swiss, JA!



I know i've been promising a new site for a while, but it looks like that'll take a bit longer than expected, so i thought i'd throw some pictures at ya from my trip to switzerland. Enjoy!


These are the kinds of pictures that you'll get of my family if you ever try it. Charmers, ain't we?

Nothing special here, i just think living pinata donkeys are cool.


First, you have to know that all of Europe is lightyears ahead of america in the category of urinal entertainment. This picture is obviously a frowny face, but when you pissed on it, it changed to a smiley face. This was just one of many, even though it's the only one i got a picture of. Other games include a soccer game with a ball that you can piss into the goal and a target, where if you pissed hard enough it would play the "ole, ole ole ole" chant from sporting events. Fantastic.

This is the top of the Schilthorn, one of the highest mountains in Europe, and right above my favorite place in the trip, a little town called murren. There was also a James Bond movie shot here.

The swiss know their cheese, and this is a cheese factory that we went to where they just rolled this shit out. Here's a picture of their cellar. Each one of those wheels is... fucking heavy... probably 50 pounds, and there's 3 hallways like this.

I like this picture for 3 reasons: 1. It was taken in this huge sampling room at a chocolate factory we toured. 2. My brother is stealthily flashing the international sign for rock and roll and 3. We endlessly made fun of my mom (left side) because she's practically a blur she was stuffing chocolate into her mouth so fast. I was doing it too, but no one has any proof.

This is also the chocolate factory. It's kind of like a covert ops pic that i took, but that was really the color of the room that these poor employees had to work in. But they were eating chocolate in this picture, so maybe life isn't so bad for them.

We've all seen these on planes, but when i was coming back i noticed how they only show one black person in the whole spread and one time he's getting his game on and in the other he's kissing his ass goodbye. Do the brothas let this slide? Perhaps they'd just say "yep, that's us alright." I'm not black, i don't know.

That's kind of it for now. If you want more details or more pictures just let me know. And i'll keep working on the site.

A future investment in comic-related urinals would be an excellent entrepeanourialy endevour.

Excellent. I like the handsome fellow in the family picture, as well as the mom-blur. Plus the blue, Bond-lair chocolate factory picture. I'll get some pictures up on my site sometime and you can link it.
