Are you hungry? As mentioned in your vlog, there is in fact an 1842 Webster-Ashburton Treaty boundry monument in Fort Kent, Maine. In addition, the town's namesake "Fort" was built at the intersection of the St. John and Fish Rivers in 1839-41. It was built to protect the interests of American loggers who used the rivers to transport logs to sawmills downstream. A remarkable and bloodless war ensued, and in 1842 the US / Canada border was setteled by the treaty . The original hand-hewn log Fort Kent still stands, and is a registered National Historic Landmark. Great P.O. Box #! Keep up the good work.

I'm not sure what the lyrics would be, but it's begging a song. You really should create a song out of the first part of this video – the “Greetings, mythical beasts…” part.

I will brainstorm what a pair of internetainers may need before i send anything out... and also, just a random thought: was it just me or did someone else think that rhett's interpretive dance at 6 min remind you of a t-rex yoga pose in fast forward mode.. im not insulting rhett but I am wondering is he used to dancing that way so that he does not crush those shorter than him on the dance floor? opps ignore that last comment,…

And then they would have to pay some of that back for room and board, so about 75 cents a week? Yeah, that sounds about right. And just for things and romes, I think I'll send something. I don't know what I'll send, but it will be something that will blow your minds back to the old P.O. Box....I think ~Pappas Well even sadder was that in 1842, children would only be paid $1 a WEEK, if they were lucky.

Seriously, Rhett? LOL It was definitely good to see Sinead. She seemed right at home and happy in the new place. And the spastic chicken dance at the end. My daughter and I both lost brain cells over that one. But other than that, the place seems to be shaping up nicely. Put Sinead to work to earn her keep. First video - new studio. Awesome!!!
