It's Hour 27 on the road! That's without stops, except for pee breaks, food, and brief jaunt in Lake Ontario. Now it's lunchtime in Nipigon at the Esso restaurant and we're all a little punch drunk. Which is nothing like being actually drunk.
So far we:
1. Took two hours before we actually left the city limits.
2. Watched Shrek III on my iPod and listened to about 7 hours of Ricky Gervais podcasts over the Regina-to-Winnipeg loop.
3. Got caught between pouring rain and blinding sun alternating every three minutes - no kidding - from Dryden to Thunder Bay.
4. Got a speeding ticket just on the other side of T-Bay. We just can't get to the fringe fast enough!
5. Took a thigh high dip in the most beautiful section of Lake Ontario we could find. Also the coldest. I think my heart stopped twice from the shock.
6. Came up with one new sketch: The Guy From Jaws talks to little kids about the real life perils of the monsters under the bed. "Don't dangle your feet over - or a Great White will take off yer leg. And I've seen the size of the monster underneath...You're gonna need a bigger bed."
7. Came up with one new show: The Hitchhikers' Guide to the Fringe, wherin a sketch company short one member picks up a hitch-hiker and offers to take them across the country, on the condition that they agree to learn the show and perform in the next city.
And that's just the beginning! Imagine the adventures when we actually get where we're going!
