i hope you have a great trip!!

Safety is a huge key for me and this drive so the safety tips are perfect. Didn't even think to bring a holy s**t kit™ (you should totally copyright that) with me.

So does the timing of this trip make you a Canucks fan? or are you going out for a show? http://livevan.com/ Either way the environment in that city right now would be great! Have fun! and don't underestimate the power of caffeine! |
Haha don't worry. I'm not one of those people who drive with earbuds in their ears. I'll plug the ipod into my car sound system. THERES A ROAD TRIP MIX!? haha perfect, was looking for something like that. Along with my ipod I will listen to plenty of Howard Stern radio, not sure if anyone here is a fan but I can't be bored of him talking.
CANUCKS FAN!? god no. I'm actually so anti-canucks I will be buying either a Red Wings or Sharks jersey depending on the outcome of the game tonight. I went to Vancouver last year in my Hawks jersey and it was a blast. By blast I mean my life was threatened on several occasions but I enjoyed making them that angry.
