q: How many Llamas can you fit into a minivan?

a: at least two. seriously. yesterday Ms. Giles and i were up in new hampshire with my dad and stepmom. we were sitting on the porch of the mt. Washington lodge lookign up at the mountain. its pretty impressive, especialy for the east coast. you can see the sunlight glinting off windshields of cars way the fuck up there. if you arent from the northeast, people pay about $16 to drive their cars to the top of mt. washington, which is the tallest peak in new england and has recorded the highest wind speed on earth for some reason.

anyway, we are sitting lookingup at the mountain, and i hear my dad say "hey look, a llama...hey what the hell?!" so we look and there is a llama standing next to a red dodge minivan. and then, another llama gets out of the minivan.

wha????

next, the front doors open up and two HUGELY fat humans get out. the minivan, unburdened of teh weight of its occupants, was now at least nine inches taller.

well, we got the scoop from a ranger that these people had pulled up to the toll house, looking to climb the mountain in their minivan. the attendant was skeptical at first because of the size of the humans. due to the steep grade of the road, strict weight limits per vehicle are observed. so the attendant looked in the backseat to calculate the total load of the minivan, and there he saw two 700 pound FUCKIGN LLAMAS.

forgetting for a moment the ethical issues raised by cramming two 700 pound animals into a compartment aproximately 8feet by five feet, or the olfactory issues raised by the same, WHY THE HELL would you want to take them 4,000 feet up a goddamned mountain? in your car?

im stil confused from this one.
