In the convenient form of point.

Things I have discovered since the PCT:

• I actually had to get used to sleeping in a bed again.
• Dane Cook is horrible. Why do you like him? He is not funny. America, again, why?
  
• Amtrak is only marginally better than Indian Railways. No, actually. But at least I could lay down in an Indian train. 45 hours Portland to Chicago. Montana is big.
  
• Hot Dog eating contests are easy to win if you're even remotely serious about it. Yes. Hats off to you Bergan.
  
• Cornfield America is everything I wanted it to be. Hello Wal-Mart.
  
• You're not allowed to wear shorts before 1630? Laugh.
  
• Jocks are real people.
  
• The Office (American) has grown on me a lot. But I still hold faithful to Gervais, despite Jenna Fischer.
  
• There is also French Canadian version of The Office. I. Know.
  
• Michigan's Upper Peninsula is pretty special.
  
• Breaking your jaw would suck. Sorry Paul.
  
• I still, still look the wrong way before/whilst crossing the road.
• Seattle is amazing. But it smells like oil. Chicago smells like fart.
• American cities are rather difficult to get lost in. Numbered streets are a way of life. Sydney, take note.
• I have developed a curious alley preference.
• Stairs. Always...
  
• Selena Gomez was one of the Barney kids.
• Zombieland! New number one in my "Zombie Movie Death" list.
  
• Pulling two random words out of a hat leads to some of mankind's proudest moments. Example one: Blanket. Sleeves. http://www.theslanket.com/ Example two: Burger. Grilledcheese. http://www.thefoodabides.com/2009/09/vortex-double-coronary-bypass.html
• The US Dollar hates me. And I hate it.
  
• I'm probably going to walk the Continental Divide Trail next year.
