As Bushie's World Turns (The Update Thread)

[Хahar 🤔]

But if it's about seeing the world, wouldn't it perhaps make sense to organize this trip outside of a church mission with perhaps a different destination (somewhere in Europe for more time and less money)? Or is Africa somewhere you absolutely want to go?

I can think of much more interesting things to do with $2,000

If you're going to go somewhere different, then actually go somewhere different. Europe doesn't count.

This sounds almost like when NY Jews go to Miami to convert people. Except nicer, and less expensive.

Talking about the chabads who try to get secular Jews to practice? Cause Jews don't usually do the evangelize thing. Once when I was in college, I was minding my own business, reading on a bench on lovely Fall day, and one of those guys asked me if I wanted to do this little ritual. I guess it was a good enough bet that I was Jewish between at Tulane, dark hair, big nose. I would loved to have seen what went down when the kids he approached weren't Jewish.

I think the "at Tulane" was enough to make that assumption.

If there is a motel stay to be had, it will be because my employer would put me up there so I can be closer to work.

Do employers really do that? It seems like it would cost more than whatever they gain from your working that day.

Suze Orman while obnoxious I have to agree with her DENIED DENIED DENIED!!!!!  Bushie, you have to help yourself before you help others.  Do you have a sizable savings account?  A 401(k) or Roth IRA?  Dude, seriously this is PAINFUL to see.

If other people are chipping in, it's really not that much money.

For real? Awesome.

You can say hello to BRTD.

Didn't you want to move to Arizona before? What happened to that?

Come on. Cricket's vastly more interesting than soccer, and it's at least as popular in Kenya. The ICC World Twenty20 is being held in Sri Lanka this September.

i didnt survive the first round of the trimming of the fb friends.

apparently im too much of a heathen!

Alas, looks like I didn't survive, either.

After the last time I went to Bangladesh, I had mild dysentery for several months. It should be fine.

[Хahar 🤔]

I didn't get the recommended Hepatitis A shots or Typhoid Fever Shots because I couldn't afford them.

What a ridiculous country.

[Хahar 🤔]

The Apple never falls far from the tree.

Yes, in 2030, Bushie's Kenyan kids will be selling him Kenyaplan health insurance, and hatching plans to leave for a missionary trip to climate change-ravaged Bangladesh.

He should visit Bangladesh. Maybe I can say hello.

Do you still have the mustache?

Utah is a nice place.

[Хahar 🤔]

As someone who has watched Utah State football for years, you're better off leaving that alone.

[Хahar 🤔]

Quite frankly Fort Collins and the rest of the Front Range seem like considerably nicer places than most of the populated part of Utah, but good luck, I guess.

The Salt Lake Valley is a very nice place, really.

I'm 6 feet 1 inch, and weigh 165-170 pounds.

I'm between 6'2" and 6'3" and I weigh around 175-190. Your target weight should be at least in that range, Bushie.

Surely you realize you guys are extremely abnormal.

lol opebo they're not "abnormal". That's a normal weight. I'm 6'2" and weigh 145 lbs. Perhaps you could consider me "abnormal" in that sense but certainly not adult men weighing 165-190.

Holy crap, that's skinny...

Yeah, I'm seven inches shorter and I weigh the same. Wow.

On the other hand, that part of the world is very pretty. I certainly enjoyed my time there.

If you're going to go to Montana, make it a trip to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. Grand Teton National Park in particular is one of my favorite places in the world, and the drive from Utah to Yellowstone takes you through eastern Idaho, which is beautiful.

[Хahar 🤔]

I don't think I've ever seen traffic in Utah.
