…Now this would be our transport across Lake Titikaka and on to Bolivia.

It’s actually part of the mighty Bolivian Navy.

In this day and age not a lot of land locked countries field Navies.

And, I must say that on this day, Mr Elbows was looking remarkably lovely don’t you think?

This seems like it’s become “who will have the last word” rather than who’s got that startling ability we call “Thread Killer”.

…I think Mr Elbows might have broken the slide projector. He has a gift, you know.

Don’t go, I’m sure he’ll have it fixed in no time.

I’ll just turn the lights up for a moment.

My word, look at how many of you there are. Well, on behalf of the Mr and myself I just want to thank you for coming.  
We think you’re all kinda special too.

I love a night like this, it’s so lovely.

Even if it is a wretched horrible unkillable thread.

\>Walks over to thread and begins to speak soothingly to it.

\>pulls out a huge jar of bear grease and a big bag of rubber goves and proced to clean and dress the thread’s wounds.

After all I am responsible for this. I thought it would kill you, I really did. but it seems like if you are gonna live, I’ve got to help you be more comfortable.

\>gives thread a huge injection of 10 different antibiotics and morphine and demerol and dilaudid. Oh and one aspirin, it couldn’t hurt.

There now, feel better?

You know if you would just go ahead and die, it would save us a lot of trouble.

Oh look, Mr Elbows has it fixed, I told you he was gifted.

We’ll just turn the lights back down, and  
There we go,

This is a shot of a paved road in Bolivia. What’s so special about it, I can hear you asking. Well, as it turns out there is only one paved road in Bolivia, and this is it.

Lovely,

…isn’t it?
