A Penguin in Canada: BreakABone Goes North: The Earl Rufus Story

Dylflon · 01-01-2009, 02:44 PM

So BreakABone is using his hard earned vacation time and money to fly out to Vancouver to visit with the West Coast Canada GameTavern crew. He's doing this even despite all the snow we have here and despite the fact that it's colder than a yeti's tit right now.

Discuss.

Where does he sleep?

How cold is a yeti's tit, then?

Interesting...

Well so much for keeping this under the radar.

But yeah, I wanted to get rid of all my vacation before I decide to quit this job or not.

So I took my remaining vacation time and rolled it in with some personal time to make a 2 week voyage to the West.

As Dylflon pointed out, I am going to visit the Canadian Connection or the Sinister Six, whichever they want to go with.

After that, I am heading down to Seattle to visit one of my college buddies for few days. While down there, going to see if could meet the elusive Mr. Gekko.

Then finishing the trip by visiting, Acebot down in LA. And also meeting up with some other folks I know.

And that's the extent of my trip to find out if I still like this job or not.

I'd make the 3 and a 1/2 hour drive to Vancouver, just cuz you seem like such a nice guy....but I can't right now, not with school starting and no money. I hope you have a great trip though, and resolve your job decision.

You could take the time for any of us near Vancouver.

But you don't!

Bastard.

Oh dude...remember years ago when you posted that picture or the fire in Kelowna with that woman on the dock in silhouette? Do you still have that?

I'm pretty sure it was you that posted it.

Earl Rufus, eh?

You driving all that from New York? Because if you are...DAMN. That is a trip man. Wow.

At this point, I assume more people who know my full name than don't on these forums.

Haha driving would need to involve me having a license and a car.

Naw, this Penguin knows how to fly.

As for the trip, I've been at work for a little more than 6 hours.
-I've caught 3 residents smoking in their room. Two twice.
First time, they did whatever... then we found a collection of paper all over the room... making for a nice fire hazard.
The second time, he decided it was a bright idea to throw a lit cigarette into a bunch of twigs and leaves.
Really think they are trying to kill me.

-We conducted room searches, and apparently half of them eat in their draws. Another one had a resident piss in his trash can and instead of cleaning it out decided to place it in his closet... was quite the surprise when I had to do his room.

-Went to the hospital... again... I've spent more time in the ER in these past few months than I've done for my entire life.

-And I have one day off this week, which they will probably ask me to come in for.

So yeah, I think a vacation is much needed.

Hmm, I'm trying to lay out the schedule of what the penguin will do while in LA....expect many photos to be taken nonetheless

WTF?! You never told me your last name, I practically begged! Your name in my address book still says Earl Penguin!

That's it, don't talk to me anymore.

Teuthida · 01-03-2009, 11:01 AM

Yeah, Penguin's a shady character. Last year for his birthday he gave me an address to mail a present to him...and then I learned it wasn't even where he lives.

Beware you Canada folk. He's going there on business, not pleasure. A penguin would never go so far North into polar bear country without a reason.

Dont forget about all the killer whales as well. Ill take him to the aquarium and see how terrified he gets.
