Sammy Sosa to the O’s … uhh, how do you say … NO!!!!!?!? Hitting the ball out of the park wasn’t the problem we had last year, it was keeping the ball in the park when we were throwin it at the other team! You’ve got to be kidding me! I thought we learned from [...]

Don’t Drink and Drive

Tuesday, January 25th, 2005

Today I was supposed to meet Travis for lunch at 11:45, but instead, I was faced with the opportunity to help get an intoxicated motorist off the road. I first noticed the driver’s erratic driving while following behind him for a couple of miles, but I didn’t realize the severity of his problem until, while [...]

Citizen Jordan: A basketball legend’s soulless retirement caps his soulless career. via kottke.org I’ll confess to only having read about 90% of the article, but I thought it was an interesting perspective. I was gonna say more about childhood idols and disillusionment and how we’re all human, but you’ve heard it all before so I’ll [...]

Q&A

Friday, January 14th, 2005

Well, I know you guys love to stay well informed on my life, so I figured it was a pretty good time to offer an update. I’m going to do this in the form of an interview because I just feel like convers[at]ing with myself. I’m a pretty good conversationalist when it comes to talking [...]

Est. 2005

Saturday, January 8th, 2005

On Tuesday at 9:30 a.m., I began what would turn out to be a successful defense of my thesis. As of Thursday at 3:15 p.m. when the final draft was accepted by the graduate school, I officially completed the requirements for a Master’s of Science in Industrial Engineering from North Carolina State University.
