Rory B. Bellows: Man About Town

I've posted this up in my two most recent blogs but i'm sure i'll get more replies here from you crazy bastards. I'm taking a week off from work july 4th-8th for my 31st birthday. If you include weekends that means i'm out july 2nd-10th! this is big in two ways. 1) i never take time off from work for vacation. 2) I don't like to celebrate my birthday. So since i don't like to do anything for myself, I will do something for my friends. For 8 days, you get to tell me what to do. I've often found that the greatest adventures in life come from living with a philosophy of "Sure. Why not?".

The only thing i'm going to be limited to is travel. So whatever you would like to see me do, make sure it's something that can be done in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Other than that, go nuts! I'm a video game character and you have the controlls.

Of course I'll post pictures of my adventures.

Ooh Ooh Ooh....how bout a picture of you humping some random/odd statue??

This is going to be fun.

Okay...you should wear shorts with knee high socks and carry a camera around your neck with a map...have someone photograph you asking for directions.

Please lay on Elm Street where Kennedy was capped. there are "x's" painted where both shots hit....and to make a day of it, haul ass to Parkland and get another photo outside the ER? (I see so many tourists do that one)
.....

sorry, I'm bored today.

Ooohh. Good idea. You know I've never done the "tourist-ey" stuff around town?

awwww dude..... and then you can do the Water Gardens in Ft Worth and do a whole Logan's Run themed thing!


I'm so excited.

also sandals with those knee high socks and a hawaiian shirt. oh and a visor.

You should wear the banana suit and get some random person to pose with you.

you should wear the banana suit to an ice cream parlor, and scream in outraged horror when someone orders a banana split (you might need a friend to come with you and order one to set this up...but it'd be worth it). then hold a protest in front of the store with a sign that says "banana splits are murder!"

at least...that's what i'd be doing if i had a banana suit...

YES!!!!

drive to washington dc.

Oh man i am going to have to think on this. And you know what i won't even be ridiculous, i will think of something very cool!

bumping this for the night crew.

Go to the museum of science and learn something smart to share with us.

Wow....man, there's just not much happening in Dallas.....

well not in July anyway. Who wants to run aound this city when its a hundred and fucking five outside?

oooh. there is a new dinosaur exhibit at the natural history museum.

Okay, this is set in stone...you MUST see it and photograph it for me...I mean us.

Hmm.. kinda looks like beef. Well beer or beef it's your money.

Good plan

Watch the Simpsons!

Ooh wear your banana costume here and take a picture with a character. WIN!

No characters at hurricaine harbor, it's just a water park.
