If you’re using IE, do yourself a favor and download Firefox. It’s just better… more secure, less popups, better layout, faster, tabbed browsing, uses less resources… trust me, go do it. Why do I bring this up? Well, apparently there were some layout issues with some of my posts when viewed with IE. I didn’t know because, well, I was using Firefox.

Inca Trail, Day 2

Monday, May 1st, 2006

Holy fucking stairs! All fucking day! My God. Have you ever done a stairmaster for 8 hours, at a 45-60º+ incline carrying 15 kg on your back, with the sun beating down on you? But not even, clean cut ... [Continue reading this entry]

Inca Trail, Day 1
