Just got back from the CR convention up in Minneapolis. Nine of us (half as many as there were supposed to be; go figure) set out in four vehicles yesterday around 5:15. I don't know why we needed four cars for nine people, but we're Republicans, so I guess gas-guzzling suits our character. I got to be one of the drivers, and I had no idea where ( Read more... )

So it's probably been about a month since I last posted anything here. Nothing great has been happening, I guess; deal with it ( Read more... )

I'll post about one of the more exciting parts of my Christmas break. Other than rabbit hunting, marathon fencing, and general Christmas cookieing and decorating, that is ( Read more... )

Sabres beat out the Penguins last night (really, what kind of fight could a penguin put up against a buffalo with a sabre?), which gives them the third best record in the Eastern Conference. 4-3 win for the third time this season. Mr. Clutch (a.k.a. Chris Drury) knocked in the game-winner a minute or so into overtime. See, Colorado should never ( Read more... )

I had to give a presentation for Latin yesterday - something vaguely relating Epicureanism, Horace, and war. It was a fifteen minute deal with five minutes afterwards for questions. Everything went well enough until the questions ( Read more... )

The Sharks beat the Sabres 5-0. In hockey lingo, that's what we call a major blowout. I had to stop listening to the game and watch a movie instead. At least it was a good one - Equilibrium. You should all see it. I'm going to go mourn now. Vae victis.

Yeah, yeah, boring old links. Maybe they'll be worth it ;).

Apparently one or both of my parents (I can't tell who sent the e-mail) have been looking at Mike Rosen's web page and decided to send me a bit of his humor. For those who don't know, Mike has a radio talk show out of Denver. Anyway, I thought I'd share. Beware, ye lefties of the thin skin ( Read more... )

Eta Sigma Phi recently received an e-mail - actually, a partial e-mail - demanding our immediate surrender and payment of copious amounts of tribute. I say partial, because it originally ended after 'present' in the second paragraph. One of our members somehow recovered the rest and sent it around. So now the Chrysophylax and I have to draft ( Read more... )
