just say you're going for a tactile approach to the scablands...?

um. how far to the back of the table can you put the poster?
i mean, if errors need to be removed, white out it is

how bright will the white out be compared to the image? is it on paper? maybe you can use a pencil eraser to abrade the image off? although if that doesnt work, youre really fucked.

Train update # 2
ok so when did the Amtrak become hook-up central for the 60+ like seriously someone needs to get chuck woolery up in this mug! Also I ve been told that my huge jugs and knitting abilities are turning on this drunk guy who I think thinks he could lure me to the bathroom for some Amtrak sex! (dnw Amtrak sex of anykind but feel free to share your stories of it.) the parade of freaks just keep getting more drunk. But for me it is naptime

I know I am on the wrong side of the river taxis and walking are my solution to this issue

Train update #3 home dude who got turned on by knitting puked on the platform at his stop! Some little kid tried to crawl on me while I was asleep cause he thought I was his mom (who was a row back) the old lady next to me asked if I was going to Portland to see my boyfriend when I told her no I don't have one. She said I need to find one and get married asap before I am old and infertial. So fellow PDXer the freak magent is fully charged and drawing them in so be prepaired for the LOLZ

I am RYAN SAW IT IN ACTION! Right before he left some crazy dude was like "i'm an escaped mental patient for halloween" Ryan and i keep walking. "It is Approprate I KNOW" he shouts as we are walking away! LOLZ

SO One freak story was about this crazy chick who had shitty kids who yelled a good majority of the 30hr train ride. She beleves in 2012.... and had her kids so worked up about it that one of them was crying. She also kept going on about how New Mexico would be the safest place... and that there really were such things as zombies. She kept trying to get me to believe in 2012. THANK GOD that there were plugs at my seat other wise I would have cried when my iphone died.

THE MOC freak story... it is a common story... Idk what it is about people wanting to look over my shoulder to see what i am doing... but it happnens all the time. SO towards the end of the trip... when i got back into good 3G range. I was MOCing from the iphone. And in the cafe car eatting dinner. SO this Old lady is sitting down next to me. NO big deal not a lot of seats with tables it's cool. SO i am eatting talking to her and MOCing... I set down the iphone to eat. She glances down at it makes a strange face. Old Lady " what are you doing with your phone" Me: Um... using the internet... Old lady: SO THIS IS WHAT SEXTING is! LOLZ!!!!! Me: Um Know I am posting on a message board not txting... Old lady: your generation is so vulgar. Then she got up and left. SO MOC=Sexting guys.... plus we are a vulger lot.. LIKE WE DIDN'T Know that.
