So....been a while, eh? couldn't keep in touch? Did i smell? Yea i'm blaming this lack of awesomeness completely on YOU!! you know who you are...i will point!!!!
Anways, i forgive you...this time.
So then i guess i'll give you an update. When we last left off i was in Seattle for literally 24 hours! That was a barrel of laughs!
Since then i have been on 4 different ships:
1) Disney Magic for a 2 week drydock in Freeport, Bahamas
2) Norwegian Epic for a week cruise installing WIFI hotspots in elevator shafts...in case anyone fell down one with their laptop and wanted to check their email for special offers.
3) Disney Dream for like 4 months. Installing a celluar at sea system and troubleshooting. It was a new ship so i traveled to Germany...AGAIN!! Wasn;t that bad. Pictures are up if you are interested! Just had to spend Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years on the ship.
4) Royal Caribbean's Liberty for a 1 week dry dock. What a crazy week that was...
And that my duckies brings us to my current location which is (drum roll) Curacao!! Don't ask me where it is because i don't know...i thought it might be a hideout for Somalian pirates but, there are to many white folk here.
Currently working on the support platform "SAFE CONCORDIA." Pictures are online in the normal place but here is a link!!!
https://picasaweb.google.com/benscotticus/Curacao?feat=directlink
Probably here until the end of the month where upon i am taking a vacation!! Holla Back Son!
Later Homies! Keep the Peace!
P.S. - check out the photos for the Disney Dream if you got the time. I got to go to some new places in Germany...like the Twilight ZONE (cue creepy music and evil laughter)

Seattle: 58 Degrees with a Side of Rain
Hello Hello!
It is currently 12am here in the beautiful city of Seattle, Washington...like the title says it is 58 degrees and raining.
It's times like these i realize i should probably take more of an interest in the weather when i am flying to new and strange places. Considering i am currently wearing sandals...
Anyways, a couple of new experiences on this day of fun filled excitement and travel. I shall bullet point for them in a classic outline!!! I freaking love bullet points and lists...they turn me on...i bet you feel awkward right now, don't you?
1) Female Captain: I don't have a problem with it! Let's get that straight right now. It's just i don't remember if i have had one as a captain of a 737 i was flying on. She seemedto know her stuff andwas even able to oit out landmarks as we were talkin off from Ft. Lauderdale. She was very interested and excited about the prospect of a cruise ship in the port...Maybe a future career for her? HHHMMMMMMM..
2) Last Seat on the Planes: Now these weren't Airbuses which can hold like a gazillion people. It was a 737 and another type really unsure although i do know the second one (the one i am unsure about) was not supposed to seat that many people. Sitting at the very back of the plane brought me back to school, when i rode the bus. It was a privilege to sit in the back. I always thought, "boo yah, who's king of the bus?"...i only sat there when the cooler kids were sick or had a bad outbreak of herpes...you know who you are. (no i don't know anyone that has herpes and if they did have it by the time they were in middle school then...good for them!)
On a plane however it is very different. You soon realize that you are very freaking close to the bathrooms. I am pretty sure i could accurately tell you what breakfast and lunch had been. Another thing is YOU ARE THE LAST PERSON TO LEAVE... i had a feeling even the flight attndants were looking down on me. They seemed nice with their have a nice day but, i know they were thinking, "i'm getting off before this clown, even if i have to pull a Tyson on him!" Anyways, i got off the planes with both my ears so no harm done.
3) Window Seats with an Amazing View: Now i know sometimes whn you read it's hard to get the sarcasm but, the second plane from Dallas to Seattle i had the most amazing view of...the engine. That's it. Just a big old hunking piece of machinery outside the window.
That's all folks. I'll try to keep you updated but, who knows?

The ending and a new beginning
So then after our last post i became lazy. Like a sloth with a bottle of Jager and a case of beer.
To continue off where i left off last time would cause my brain to melt from the effort it would take to remember everything. So without further a do! FOOTNOTES ACTIVATE!!:
1) After cafe 420 i had to get back to the hotel where the rest of the people were staying."to the metro," i said very loudly, and got several weird look from the people around me.
2) Got on the wrong train!!! I had to meet the group at 1pm and the wrong train made me 10 minutes late and left me all by my lonesome for the rest of the day.
3) Wandering around the city i get spotted by the group of people i'm with. In this big ass city they spot me...i guess i was doing a serious Frankenstein impression while walking around, it felt pretty sweet.
4) more coffee shops blah blah blah...head home
It's hard to be interested in what happened last time since i am here again for 4 nights...
Yes party people, with the volcano in iceland going bat-shit crazy, all of the european flights have been grounded. This has made the train stations here packed full of crazy people who have to get home immediately!!!
So my original plan of going to Switzerland and skydiving in Interlaken was smashed. So my back up plan planning commenced and then finished.
I am going to be staying at the Flying Pig Uptown Hostel until the 19th! Where upon all that praying on good and evil (i am an equal opportunity prayer) i will be able to fly home on the 20th!
My dreams of skydiving are not squashed completely! I am going to be setting up an appointment to skydive in Rotterdam!
http://www.skydiverotterdam.com/
i hope they are still flying with that stupid ass volcano.
Time to get cracking people!

I Amsterdam The Beginning
Welcome to the Road Trip Issue!
The one and only thing on the agenda tonight my child zombies is...IS...AMSTERDAM!!!!!
So i'm going to try to give you a second by second recap...ok i'll be honest that's not going to be possible. More like a hazy recollection of stuff that may or may not have happened. It is all kind of hazy since i had a hazy frame of mind through the 36 hours of bliss and happiness.
7:30pm - February 26, 2010 (pronounced 20 10, welcome to the future people)
We depart the shipyard and begin the quest to the Holy Land! We had filled the van during lunch with the necessary supplies. Those being beer, Jager, Redbull, Vodka, and Jameson. Needless to say it was a very interesting ride. Especially when the seal needed to be cracked about an hour outside of our final destination. This made the journey quite uncomfortable for many of us, me being included. About an hour out I couldn't stand it anymore. Neither could the guy next to me. A plan started running between me and him...well, it was mostly him saying, "dude, i'm pissing in a cup over here." Now then, me also having to go and being slightly inebriated (i spelled that right the first time, eat your heart out spell checker!) I decide to go for it too! It turned out alright! I just let a little go and was feeling dapper and cheery again!
10:00pm - February 26, 2010
We arrive! After another 12 hour day of work, we arrive in Amsterdam. At a little hotel on the outskirts of the city. After checking in and doing the normal pre-game preparations we adventured into the city! Luckily there is a Metro train station right outside of the hotel so there was no wasted time!
11:30pm - February 26, 2010
We have arrived in the heart of the beast. There are things going on everywhere, mostly people walking to the clubs and night spots. Whilst walking down the main drag we find a quaint little spot called TEASERS - Babes & Beer. With this we begin the first 3 videos:
I do apologize for the quality and whatever else is messed up with the videos. These were mainly to serve the purpose of...THIS WAS THE FIRST BAR ON THE ROAD!!! Yes, this is actually just a bar.
12:00am - February 27, 2010 (still pronounced 20 10...)
I was feeling a little sleepy at around this time. I remember from the last visit that Amsterdam is known for it's coffee. So me and a buddy wander over to this delightful little place called the Grasshopper. I certainly didn't remember the wide selection of blends that a local coffee-shop has. We decided on a nice blend of hash and tobacco to start off the night. i have to say it wasn't bad. It gave me the jolt i needed to finish standing at the bar.
12:30am - February 27, 2010
We leave Teasers...mainly because it's closing. While most of the guys head back to the hotel me and some other peeps forge onward! Where upon i find a couple of the weirdest things i have seen so far...in my entire life(There are pictures, none of which will be posted on here, they are online though. If you would like to view them please shoot me an email. Paranoia kicking in...)i can't go over the circumstances to much because i don't know them. So here is a list!
1) A Bicycle (not motorcycle) accident...that the cops responded too.
2) A dude throwing up! (not really too weird but always funny to see!)
3) A field sobriety test on a guy that was driving a scooter.
1:00am
We arrive at Club Brazil. Which is exactly like it sounds. A latin club. I lasted for 2 beers and then bounced like a ball out of there. I don't do clubs very well and i wasn't really feeling the vibe.
1:30am
Completely lost!! Thankfully at The Grasshopper they don't sell pre-rolled...
Hang on a second...when i say coffee i mean weed, hash, and marijuana. Just making sure we're all on the same page here.
joints as a single. they sell them in packs of 5!!! These were monsters too! The length of my middle finger and about 1/2 inch thick at the end. So while completely lost i'm puffing away in a complete and utter cloud of "holy shit i can't believe i'm in Amsterdam."
3:00am
Finish the last joint...start looking for another coffee shop to kill some more time. I'm determined to make it all night! Upon my search i discover something startling! I discover that most of the places close at 3am...well that may or may not be true. I remember looking into a couple of places but they were locked. After getting discouraged about the first couple of places i lose interest and get a cab.
4:00am
Arrive at the hostel that was arranged before the trip. I had to pay for this room but, it was worth it. Instead of being 20 minutes out by TRAIN! I was 5 minutes out walking.
Upon arrival i realize something! This is a Christian Youth Hostel! I ring the buzzer and get admitted into a foreign territory. I have never had the pleasure of staying at a Christian hostel. For some reason though i had this weird sense of dread when i walked in there. Like a great weight descending on my shoulders. Then i i realized the ceiling was falling on me...and that made me realize i had to make the check-in process as fast as possible. I was already getting weird looks from the guy behind the counter.
4:15am
Survived my first exorcism. That's the only way you can stay at a Christian hostel. They know if your not a devout follower...they can smell it! Let me just say this though...i didn't even remember eating pea soup.
Pass out...on the easiest bed i can find.
10:00am
Get woken up by another Christian. This one seemed kind of angry, mainly because i had slept in his bed. He said not to worry about it but, i could sense the hate!
Get up, return my key, and begin wandering around the city phase 2! First stop is Cafe 420, where i get my first vaporizer experience. It was freaking amazing.
I'll pick this up tomorrow, I'm tired. Don't forget to send the email if you want a chance to see the album! There are 96 photos or something like that.

Tonsillitis, Preliminary Escape Date, and Some Beer Pong
So then my duckies!
To call this rousing tale of an American trapped in Germany to order, we will discuss today's first topic.
Tonsillitis...it is officially my bitch. I have overcome it and am now determined to make it my new offensive weapon against people with poor immune systems!!! This is step 1 in my plan to dominate the world!! The second step is to start a pyramid scheme to collect money so that i can buy stock in cough drops!!! That's right!! Not really sure about how pyramid schemes work (not really to interested in the fine details) but, i do know that people get rich off of them!! So give me your money!!! No...seriously...give it to me, NOW!!
Alright most of that was a lie...obviously? Tonsillitis is mainly strep throat, if you want more information i recommend http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonsillitis
The true part is that i want your money. Begin the pyramid scheme, peons!! I already have a pyramid name, it is..."Give Me Your Money." It will go down in the history books as the most honest scam ever pulled off. When I make a lot of money i will thank all the grateful individuals (you will be grateful...because YOU will be making history!) and then retire to my continent shaped island off the coast of Dubai...I'm not doing all the work for you! If you want to know what I'm blabbering about Google it. It's pretty ridiculous when you read about it.
Now that my world domination plans are all laid out ahead of you i am going to change the subject. I do this hoping that you will be so surprised at what I'm about to lay on you, you will forget what i just said...about Operation Give Me Your Money. I was talking to the head honcho while walking out to the cattle car and he gave me...A DATE!!! I am not speaking about dinner and a movie! I am talking about a release from this frozen wasteland.
APRIL 15TH will become a national holiday when i get back to the states. There will be a parade!! I'll pay for it out of the Give Me Money scheme...crap! Stupid old typewriter!! I can't backspace!!!!!
Final item for the agenda and i will call this adventure completed and over.
BEER PONG!!!
It is for some a child's game. Something that should be played in Kindergarten and then put back on the shelf when you hit middle school. By middle school you should be moving on to Whiskey and kicks to the face...that's what Chuck Norris did. He began that great tradition after he made the dinosaurs extinct and taught men how to make fire (FIRE GOOD!!!).
Here though, on the golden nights when there is no work in the morning...it becomes THE ONE AND ONLY SPORT! A sport fit for men with bulging muscles and hairy chests!! A sport fit for sexy women to walk around in sexy clothes!! This is what we do on Saturday night!
And so the rules for those of thou that do not knoweth (that's right going old shooleth on yer arses):
Whileth playingeth the beer pong, listen to thy rules mortal...eth:
Rule #1: Thine elbow shall not pass the tabel edgeth
Rule #2: Thy will finisheth thy beer before throwing
Rule #3: There shalleth be 2 re-rackeths
Rule #4: Thy willeth drink thine enemies beers, if thine fail in thy conquest
Rule #5: Thou will make sure to headeth Rule #6 well.
Rule #6: Aftereth finishing a conquest of Beer Pongeth. Do noteth passeth out.

Tonsilitis? and The Trivia That Is About to Ensue
Ok so i may have it,the tonsillitis, and it is a serious menace to the society that makes up my body. To all my enemies, enjoy this because your time is coming... You know who you are!! I'm looking at one right now!!! Damn alarm clock...
To keep people interested and to make people even more confused I'm going to start a trivia thing for my posts. Just for shits and giggles. Mainly my giggles and your shits because the first one I did about Queen...cake. Be prepared people!
Yes, I am serious about the prize! As to what it should be...that is today's trivia!! Come up with an original idea for last nights post and get a prize of MY choosing!! Come up with a prize for the next one and get a double!! Make it something unique to a German town. As in something you think a German town SHOULD have, I make no guarantees about availability. Mainly because they have some stuff that should be normal and then some random stuff that doesn't make any sense. Also, make it really hard to get through customs! I would love to have to explain why i have a blow up doll and a baby food/motor oil mix in my suitcase(they actually sell that..no, not really.). I already have an idea forming about prizes now if no one comes through...so get cracking, slaves!!!
The Flipside...yes it's here. If not enough people take part...it ends. The whole thing is a pretty weird thing for me to do but, what do i know?! I'm a bear! I suck the heads off fish!!! That right there my friends, is my favorite saying of all time...so far.
To Mr. or Mrs. Anonymous Commenter:
Good job! Can you get this one, too? Also, send me some info if your really want the prize.
Mr. Fahrenheit, singing off!

The Flipside...yes it's here. If not enough people take part...it ends. The whole thing is a pretty weird thing for me to do but, what do i know?! I'm a bear! I suck the heads off fish!!! That right there my friends, is my favorite saying of all time...so far.
To Mr. or Mrs. Anonymous Commenter:
Good job! Can you get this one, too? Also, send me some info if your really want the prize.
Mr. Fahrenheit, singing off!

Comment Spam, Papen Gras, Leading the Blind, and Misc. Items TBD
Attention all Embryos!!! Prepare to evacuate ship...is how i would start a book if i ever wrote one. Kind of gives off a freaky image right away doesn't it? I think it works though.
Alright then back to the main event! I am pretty sure that I'm the only one that actually looks at the comments section, mainly because i get email alerts telling me that one of my devout followers has decided to praise me. I like being praised, it makes me feel complete. It makes me feel like a good boy!! Anyways, i noticed that i am now important enough to receive comment Spam!! I haven't check the links but, i am pretty sure that on week 4 or something, there are 4 links to weird things...it may be porn!! Hang on... ... ... OMG!!!!! What is that horse doing!?!?!?!?! Is that a...no it couldn't be!!!! I don't believe it...it's really eating that carrot!!!
Alright i didn't check the links and there really isn't a horse eating a carrot but, i bet i know what you were thinking before you got to the carrot part!!! What a bunch of pervs i have reading this!!
Found out something cool about Germans yesterday for Valentine's Day...
Oh yeah quick side note, HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!!
Anyway, i found out that Germans love to drink!!! They also love to throw parades!!! For Valentine's Day there was a big parade with much drinking! Everyone was in costume and having a merry old time. The floats were handing out shots like beads in New Orleans. They also threw out vampire fangs and whistles...don't ask.
After the parade was past our domicile (yes i went there with domicile, i looked it up and it is correct to use it there. I'm edumacated!) we began the exodus! Turns out that they throw out all the stops for this festival. Not only is there a parade but, there is also a huge...HUGE...HUGE!!!!!!! party tent staked out that all the floats end up at. Inside of this HUGE!!!!!!! party tent is a HUGE!!!!!!! crowd. Every person in there is completely hammered. Pretty much falling down while standing still. Actually, it was even worse...Falling down while sitting in a chair. There was a live band jamming out and pumping everyone up.
Speaking of the live band... i believe that this is the only country where an entire song could be formed with the word "La." Every time the guy said "La" people started jumping and cheering. What really drove everyone up a wall and back down the other side was when he said Papenburg. Everyone's head would literally explode and then come back together on the person to the left's shoulders. It was phenomenal!!! Like watching a dinosaur hatch, which i have seen several times and recommend anyone who hasn't to seriously re-evaluate their life's plan...alright i lied. Although i have seen all of the Jurassic Parks AND eaten the cereal.
Here are some videos!!!!!!!! They are on Youtube but, I wouldn't even try to find them. Unless you know something that i don't on how to search, say screw it and watch them here. But what do i know!? I'm a bear! I suck the heads off fish!! (Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, very good movie)
Video #04 is being a little bitch so...enjoy the other 5 here. It'll come around eventually or, it won't. Try not to lose to much sleep about it. There are photos too in the photo gallery...where i keep things like that.
**SUDDEN TOPIC CHANGE!!!**
"I see!!" said the blind man as he picked up his hammer and saw (get it? because, like, the dude is blind right?, but he picks up his hammer and SAW...yea it's a classic). I finally got my contacts in so I'm not totally blind. Woot Woot!! Woot Woot!!...indeed. I'm thinking i finally need a pair of glasses. At least as a fall back. Hopefully i won't break them every other day like i did in the past.
In case you were interested...I am a bear after all.
Time for me to burn through the sky. 200 degrees that's why they call me Mr. Fahrenheit, and I'm signing off...First one to comment on where Mr. Fahrenheit comes from AND why he needs to reload gets a prize. No, seriously I'll get you something.
