It is 6:00. It's time to get up. --Owen's 3rd cell phone alarm, in a computerized woman's voice
Hello! Come back! --Owen impersonating annoying Indian supervisor
b.s. meter. ding, ding, ding, ding!
Schtupid! --Gary
I don't really like myself.
Ladies are lovely creatures, but emotional animals.
Take chopsticks & shove it up his ass.
Sherpa! Stay close! Very healthy. –Liz Sims, WWOOFer hostess, in a high-pitched, shrill, piercing, banshee-esque voice
He’s a whirlwind of activity. It’s amazing how he’s so gentle yet retains his masculinity. --Liz Sims, about pokey, geeky Toby (fellow WWOOFer)
We’re in a ball. We rolled down a hill. We’re wet. --Toby (German) on zorbing
30 orks passed here. Into the woods. Oh, look what I brought back to the shire (a ring, on a chain around his neck). –Toby’s LotR impressions, while hiking
It’s scary when you realize a 12-year-old girl listens to the same music you do. –Toby, about Talia

cast additions:
Liz Sims—WWOOFer hostess. I’m not prejudice against the United States (she certainly was); claimed the best way to travel is to admit your country is wrong. Also claimed they don’t watch TV in this house; in actuality, her daughter watched about 3 hrs/day! Claimed cobbler/fruit pie is very healthy; we eat very healthy here. Secretly desires to be part of an oppressed minority. Claims she’s open-minded & wouldn’t mind if her son were gay & she didn’t have grandchildren, yet completely judgmental toward pro-Bush, conservative, or religious people. Adores Asians
At the same place, we have a WWOOF host who’s an Anglican preacher w/ dreadlocks, & a fellow WWOOFer, who’s an atheist Christian, that is, his name is Christian & he’s an atheist (claims is normal for Germans)
Can’t get away from Germans, by far the most people that we’ve met thus far.
