OUR MISSION: To hike up into the hills above Rowland Heights and uncover the secrets of the Nike Base.

BACKGROUND: Since WWII till the Cold War, the US government was so paranoid that they installed radar towers and nukes in our own backyards to protect our righteous asses. Whenever a foreign ambush was to come unexpectedly, the military would open the trapdoors of these underground missile silos called Nike Bases and fire a big one into their commy assholes.

INFANTRY: Me (squad leader), Josh Ng (photographer), Ephraim Ng (supply donkey).

TIME TO COMPLETE: approximately 3-hours

DESCRIPTION & LOCATION: http://ed-thelen.org/loc-c.html#LA-29

seatfiller finally once again. this time to the american top 40. it was half fun half gay literally. we had to line up behind this gay dude for a couple of hours. good thing was, he had this amazing blonde chick friend. what a lucky chap. maybe i shoulda pretended i was gay also just to hang out with her. but i have seen her at previous seatfillers, so next time i see her, i gotta find out. anyways this was held at the CBS studios and was filmed live at 5pm so the east coast could watch it. we sat in the front and got a good shot on TV when i went home to watch it. i was basically there to see avril, ryan cabrera, and ashlee perform, but the gay thing is some were just played on screen. so i only ended up seeing ryan cabrera, hillary duff, gavin de graw, carmen electra and the faggot, ryan seacrest as host. it got boring and we left. little did we know, paris hilton showed up at the end! and we had to kick our own asses for leaving early.

moral of the story not how being a seatfiller is cool, but how gays get the honor to hang out with hot chiks.

UPDATE: i was in the shower and i tried hard to think where i might have seen this girl. it clicked! she used to work at the tanning salon nearby. cant believe ive forgotten such a familiar face and not say hi.
