As for the time difference it's because I'm in the UK and wordpress my blog system publisher is set to GMT Time so all comments and posts will appear as the time it is in the UK. There's no way to change it so from whether you post comments in the world it sets the different times. But it's probably best like that because if all the times were different the order of the comments would possible alter.... Anyhow thanks for letting me know and hey thanks for checking out my blog!

I was like, "paparazzi, maybe?". When we finally got close enough, we were able to read the lettering on the back doors and the side of the vehicle. It was a maroon suv, moving at maybe about 25-30mph, and we saw it around 1:40 or so in the afternoon today. Didn't think of taking a picture of it though until it was too late. Ah well, at least maybe we can see ourselves or something.

I found it sort of ironic because I was complaining about my iPod and then.. voiila, a Microsoft SUV! I don't know much about what the vans are used for.. can you shed some light on 'em for me?
