We got to meet APunkin's Ma and sister (ya'll know the PunkSister as Tinkerbelle). Tink is every bit as much fun as she is online, and Punk's Ma is fixin' to adopt us, I think......leastways I hope she is!

Had us some TexMex served by a young med student who played baseball in Canada, eh? My, my, my....they grow med students right purdy in Texas!

Tasted authentic Texas BBQ and fried ochra for the first time in the Historic West End in Dallas. Is that some fine eatin', or what!!!!!!!!!!

The Cultural Exchange Program: In return for the TexMex n BBQ, I cooked up a real authentic Mennonite supper for the Podfamily...sausage n stuff. Did not look like brains, Punk.

"Virst ve vill cook ze brains unt zen ve vill eat ze brains ... UNT you vill loff zem!!!!!!!!!" Punk thought that wuz kinda funny *shrugz*

Introduced Rick to Sleeman's Honey Brown Lager! And dat's Canuck beer, mon ami!

Went to 6 Flags and ate Funnel Cake, and to the mall, where we had Dip'n Dots. Hmmmmm Yummy!

Did some hummingbird huntin' in Punk's backyard. They're cute lil buggers, ain't they?

Chased a runaway tram....ever seen the Keystone Cops chasin' a runaway train? Wuz kinda like that. We sure had fun!

Ran into the Irving Police Gang Unit....and don't them boyz look fine, all dressed in black? But they're some grumpy, I tell ya. I mean.....I had no idea that what we were doing was against the law in the state of Texas...I mean, who knew? Sheesh."

Kodak Moments

APunkin's Mugshot....I think they got her good side, no?

Stella!, caught in the act. Armed and definitely dangerous

Stella! & Shannon! waiting for the Ewings to come down for breakfast, out on the Southfork patio

We captured these three gringos on film, as we were making our escape at the Dallas Airport

Shannon clowning around at the Mesquite Rodeo. So how come they wouldn't let Punk 'n' me backstage to meet the cowboys, huh?

And I just wanna know how come Shannon meets all the good lookin' fellas?

For those of you who've been invited, I thought you might like to take a look at the Pod. Hey Punk! Where's our guard?
