Kurt does his best impression of a 14 year old Russian gymnast (female).

Trip 2k8 is now in the bag. Here is the annual group photo. More to come.

Staying at Troy’s cabin has become more like a labor camp than a vacation. We’ve suffered in silence in that past, but the time has come to expose Troy as the petty tyrant that he is. The pictures below document the inhumane treatment to which his so called ‘guests’ are subjected.

First, we have to setup Troys dock in lake water barely above the freezing point.

Notice how Prince Troy stays high and dry while Kurt is forced to swim the dock in alone.

Darren feels Kurt’s pain, and is obviously distraught, but what can he do?

Troy assured all of us that his boat was ready to go. He absolutely refused to allow Kurt or Darren to bring their boats, which were both in fine working order. Clearly, this was all a ploy to get a free boat repair out of us.

As a final indignity, we were forced to clean the tennis courts at the community center. It is one thing to be coerced into hard labor by a ‘friend’, but when it is to the benefit of total strangers, well, that just crosses the line of civilized behavior.

Apparently, Troy cares more about looking good to his fellow Shuswap fat-cat social set than the well being of his once good friends. If any of you still doubt what I’m telling you, I think this last picture says it all.

Kurt’s profile looks like he could be leading a small communist uprising.

Still don’t see it? Try one without the cap and mirrorshades. Seriously, that noggin could be on an eastern block postage stamp.

A couple of years ago, we had a little incident with the campfire. I expect this kind of fiasco with Darren and Kurt, but Troy is a fireman and I hold him to a higher standard. The whole story is in the video below, which I have titled ‘Heros’.

Sometimes Troy gets frustrated with Kurt and just loses it.
