Why is everyone calling me stupid?

I know, I know...that should be an easy one to answer.  Everywhere we went today (another temple tour...I already mentioned the 22 billion temples), people around me kept saying stupid, stupid, stupid...I was very offended!  I asked Cassandra why everyone was calling me stupid, and she explained they weren't calling me stupid, they were saying stuppa...apparently that means temple...how stuppa is THAT!

Anyway, the first thing (other than breakfast) we did was steal a tuktuk...
...that way I could do a tour the way it should be...a stupid...er...stuppa tour!  We could see this stuppa first, so we headed for it...
...we were just ahead of the cops, but easily lost them by laying down a methane fog...and started the tour at some temple called a stuppa...

...as you can see, I was tilting a bit to the left, and we almost ran into this guy...
...he got my attention...maybe it was those long, beautiful eyelashes...hmmmm, where was I...oh ya, the tour.  Anyway, here's some of that tour stuff (not to be confused with the stuppa stuff)...
 Remember I told you about those little side-stuppa's...here's what's inside one of them...
 ...and the outside was carved out of a big rock...see the elephant...
...in the pond were these fish...
...on the ceiling were these cool tiles...this is just one of them...
...this thing was carved out of solid rock 2200 years ago...here's how you get on the roof of it...
...once you get on the roof, there's a mini-stuppa...only 12' high...
...then we hid out in some caves the monks use for sleeping or having sex...
 ...they had been laying around there for 2200 years, and the rocks got smooth...so we laid down and...well, we laid down...
...and the rock started to move, so I saved Cassandra!
That's the kind of guy TLD is!  After I secured the rock, we got out of there...down the hand carved stairs...
...came to this place that kinda looked the same...sort of...
...and way off in the distance, guess what we saw?...yep...stuppa!
...there were some nice little flowers...
...then we found the star map that ET left for me...
...there are two more like this...one in Egypt, the other is at a McDonald's outside of Newark New Jersey.  Anyway, we saw some other stuff...
 ...and they used this to make rice for 6000 monks every day...no, REALLY!
 I don't think they use it anymore...maybe.  Anyway, then we went to the gardens of the king and queen...had some kind of special name but it was in that stupid foreign language...anyway...
Those are the private bathing pools of the king, queen, Oprah, and Dick Cheney.  Then we came across an old house in the woods...found 4 Watchtower magazines on the front steps...
...and there was Cassandra recording the event...
Anyway, moving on...
Cassandra got hungry with all this running from the law...
...polished off some curds and honey...then it was almost time to take the tuktuk back...


That's it for today folks!

  1. "Laid down a methane fog"? I always suspected you were a gasbag!

    How fast do Tuk-Tuks go?

  2. Only TLD would be so cunning as to change his disguise by changing his wristwatch from his left arm to his right as he ran from the policepolice with the tuktuk.

    1. We weren't running from the policepolice...just the police. If we had to run from the policepolice, more elaborate disguises would have been needed.

    1. No, I held the big rock up with one hand, then built a support structure with the other...honest! Why would I want to ride a cow...do I LOOK like a cowboy? I should remind you that I am an international Bon Vivant...or something.
