Trip Out East

August 2007: Johnson and I flew out to Toronto to visit Rob and Jeremy. It was a week of hanging out, doing stuff, sight-seeing, good food, and most importantly -- good friends. Some highlights...

A Dodge Callebaut (Dodge Caliber) as a rental car (Rob also called out a Mitsubishi Galaxy [Gallant]). The Caliber sounded really weird when you give it more gas, until we figured out that it has a continuous-variable transmission.

Johnson Fiddling with Rob's iPod

I cooked lunch one day and no one was poisoned. Johnson cooked for us that night:

Johnson's Parmesan Chicken Johnson's Spaghetti with Mushroom Tomato Sauce

Johnson and I downloaded as many crappy demos as we could find on Rob's Xbox 360.

We went to see Jeremy win a hockey game at Rinx:

Drove to Montreal. Actually, we managed to drive right through Montreal by accident, and had to turn back to get to our hotel.

We stayed right by the Guy Favreau Complex, and thus was born Rob's favourite French phrase ever:

Went to Centre Island in Toronto:

And basically, our whole trip was 'sponsored' by Starbucks... I'm pretty sure we had at least one a day. :-)

Plugging up a toilet? I dunno what you're talking about. The video replay clearly shows me mouthing the words 'Jeremy pooped'. The interwebs do not lie, my friends!
