The Story

It was a long weekend in Canada, in BC it was BC Day so Ernie, Vic and I hauled over to Victoria to hang out with Rene. Ernie brought along his newly acquired Domokun, a stuffed piece of "shit" that's a mascot for a Japanese TV station. Domokun can't speak any words but enjoys watching TV and farts when he meets cute girls - kinda like Ernie. We arrived in Victoria around 11pm and started the drinking party which consisted of some very nice crantinis made with vodka, cranberry juice, iced tea and melon liquer. Really tasty.

We slept on the floor of Rene's place which is a layer of berber carpet on top of some very hard concrete. I had slept on it before and was kinda used to its Grace Jones-like properties (hard and flat) but Vic referred to it as "Carp-ghanistan" and a plan was made to march to a Canadian Tire or a Zeller's to pick up some foam pads or air matresses. Air mattresses were acquired at Canadian Tire for the fine price of $17 a pop, life was better. We headed up to Duncan to have fried chicken then had Burger King for dinner. Yay. We are so healthy.

Chinese food in Victoria is nothing like chinese food in Vancouver. Vancouver has fantastic chinese food, it's cheap, good and available fast. In Victoria it's not cheap, it's not that good and it comes reasonably fast. The english coming out of the waiters' mouths were too good to make me think that it was going to be good chinese food anyways. We spent our third day touring the downtown core, dropping by the legislature and other fine sights of Victoria. Rene decided to molest a storefront moose while we were there. Rene's girlfriend Carmen joined us for dinner and then we went bowling where I demonstrated that I can't see straight.

We stayed inside on our last day and watched Hillary Swank and Pat Morita kick whiteboy ass in "The Next Karate Kid". Make sure you get the DVD edition. On the ferry back Domokun kept posing for pictures. Ernie then tried using Domokun to lure little kids outside, disapproving parental looks caused Domokun to run. He still ended up scaring at least one kid. I think Ernie is a pederast.
