A: Dead people.

Today: Climbed a tree. Walked 5 miles. Got tipsy 3 times, progressing to drunk on last try. Found the keys to someone's Lexus. Couldn't find cat. Climbed over 1 fence, and crawled under another. Started Around the Day in Eighty Worlds. Ate bowl of green jell-o.

The French people were great. More later.

Always say yes.

There is a girl here with "snake bite" studs below her lips, dreaded hair (pretty damn long too), who wears black skirts over those goth pant thingies.

It is hilarious.

I think, if I could read her tattoos, she would be even funnier.

It is like she is trapped between four different subcultures, all equally stupid.

I'm not sure if I was laughing at or flirting with her more.  Either way, hijinks should ensue.  If possible, I will videotape whatever physical violence happens.  It will be great.  Currently taking bets on back tattoos.

I'm thinking... angel/devil wings, at least five "anarchist" stars... and, if we're lucky, Bob Marley in a cloud of smoke.  Mebbe an ironic picture of an animal as well, though those are usually saved for shoulder/wrist.

Hi Internet!  I'm Ben.  I'm an English Literature student, studying abroad at Oxford University.  I just turned 23.  I'll be in Istanbul in a few weeks, then Atlanta.  This is my Friday, June 1st.

Friends are cool, with one caveat:  If you'd like to be my internet friend, please tell me something about yourself in the comments section.  And, pretty please, write something no one else has written.  Ever.  In the history of The Internet.
