The northeast quadrant of Kem’s 4-corner map is where Aunty Lehman lives, grimly sipping her bloody merrys.
About an hour later me and two friends had a nice lunch on church street and decided to each enjoy a few bloody merrys. Now I am a small girl, but I swear to god I have the tolerance of a horse. Not to mention these were extremely weak drinks. After the two bloody merrys I was literally feeling like I just had five beers.

Report of theme park injury: “A little boy pushed his little sister off the mary go round and she broke her rib arm and leg.â€
Blog entry about Disneyland: “ I figure the mary-go-round can’t be too bad!! Well… I was wrong. I almost missed a step when we got off.â€
