Chair Lift Verse

Composed on a trip up the mountain at Mount Snow:

Gimme five days, I'll give you a beat.
Gimme five more, I'll take it to the street.
Another five days? I don't need that sheeiit.
Cause ten days all I need to have the crowds at my feet.

A strange phenomenon

While posting pictures from my trip to Europe with Dan in 2005 (still have 4 more cities to add), I came across a few from Montpellier, a French city in which we stopped on the way to Nice. It might surprise you to find out that while there, we had a quick meal of mediocre Chinese food. It might surprise you even more to find out that I really liked it and that I think mediocre Chinese food in Europe, especially in France, is notably better than its counterpart in America.

Note: this only applies to MEDIOCRE Chinese food. There is a lot more authentic and excellent Chinese food available in America (at least in New York) than in Europe.
