So, i've got an art project in mind. I'd like to do a sort of stained-glass thing, and i've got the design all figured out, but i'm not sure what sort of materials to use ( Read more... )

A few months ago, Surly and i bought ourselves a set of windchimes at the grocery store. I know, i know...but frankly, something about these windchimes made it so they were practically demanding we take them home. So we did. For a few months, we kept them inside, since we couldn't find anywhere to hang them ( Read more... )

Ah, YouTube. Is there anything it can't mashup?

This is brilliant, in a funny way: The crew of the Enterprise finds Camelot

And this is brilliant, in a disturbing way: Kirk and Spock get closer

Man, i'm not a slasher, but that last one made me root for them to get together.

ETA: Ahem. The first link comes from my dear Dr. Surly.

Woke up this morning at 8am without the help of an alarm or anything, and realized i was wide awake. Since i hit the sack around 12:30 last night, and i feel pretty refreshed, i'm gonna take it to mean i'm all caught up on my sleep. Which is kinda nice, as that doesn't happen much ( Read more... )

What have we learned from the Hoosiers today?

• Tracy Porter is a Very Bad Man™ and should be thrown in the other team's way as often as possible.

• Blake Powers has a pretty good arm, but not much else. He doesn't carry the ball very well (or, more importantly, when ( Read more... )

Yay!1 I got to hear the first down song!1

The bad news is, i had to wait until 7 minutes into the third quarter for it.

The good news is, i got to hear it four times in the next couple of minutes.

The worse news is, we followed up that drive with an interception by UConn. *sigh*

Here at the Squatter's Inn, we'd like to take a moment here in the second quarter of the UConn-IU game to say that we are now officially fans of Tracy Porter. In the last 30 seconds, he's knocked away a would've-been-a-touchdown pass and blocked a field goal attempt, which was then returned for something like 25 yards. He's also had two ( Read more... )

Surly and i are hanging out and watching the Iowa-Illinois football game today. My prediction is that Juice Williams will be a really fantastic quarterback by the time he's a senior, provided he gets some good coaching. He's got a hell of an arm--we've seen two passes from one end of the field to the other--and he's got a better running game than ( Read more... )
