    Apparently snowball fights are serious business in Eugene. Oops.

    LOL, yeah, I saw that.

    I think it's because Oregonians in the Willamette Valley so rarely see snow, especially this much.

    From the videos I saw, the kids were being annoying and childish. While it could've easily escalated to some minor property damage or someone being injured, it doesn't appear that happened. I was a little surprised to hear the starting TE was going to be suspended from the Bowl game over it. I'm not all for athletes skating w/o punishment at all, but that seemed a little heavy to me.

    Well, and it did happen in Eugene, after all. They have a bit of a rep for getting out of hand. Not just the university--the whole town.

    SUPER IMPORTANT:

    I'd just like to say that if the apocalypse comes and I end up a zombie, please make sure that I get put in the appropriate Misfits t-shirt.

    I don't want to roam the world eating fatties and old people in my stupid work polo.

    Oh, I thought you were referring to that care package I sent everybody that was at T-dot.

    You know, the one containing a Misfits t-shirt and a "How to Tell When Your Plan9 has Turned" booklet.

    Postage was killer but it was totally worth it knowing that my melon will be essploded wearing my favorite t-shirt.

    I did my last jump at Bragg in that shirt. I got married in that shirt. Hell, I'll likely be buried in that shirt like 30 years from now.

    I just proved dogs are smarter than cats.

    I picked up a new laser bore sight (fancy version of a laser pointer for you non-gun folk). I popped the batteries in to make sure it worked before I put it away. I decided to have some fun with the cat, who even at 15+ years of age gave chase. Pretty soon Stanley wanted in on the fun and started chasing it alongside her (which earned him a few whacks upside the head). They both chased it for about 45 seconds before Stanley started dividing his attention between the spot on the floor and the object in my hand. Another 15 seconds and the cat was chasing it alone and he was sitting at attention at my feet watching my hand, as if he wanted to beg for a treat. Meanwhile the cat was mindlessly chasing away. Finally, satisfied it worked I walked over to my gun cabinet and put it away. The cat started looking all over the room waiting for the laser to reappear. Stanley walked over by the gun cabinet and sat down, as if to say "I know it is in there, get it back out so I can check it out".

    So there ya have it. :p

    It's not that dogs are smarter than cats -- they are not -- but dogs have had 10,000 years to learn to be keen observers of humans.

    Dogs vs. cats, huh?

    Never confuse boredom with intelligence. I'd love to have the imagination I had as a child on my weekends as an adult.

    They put "check copyright" for the pictures I printed through Walmart.
    Almost 'flattered' but I am going to go with the visible watermark line of thought instead. Finally settled on using my scanned signature for that purpose, along with a second copy that includes my website that will not see much use I suspect..

    Just had a rooster high up in the tree in my front yard.

    It was mid-day(ish) but he was crowing like it was sunrise.

    So. Much. Snow.

    ...granted, it's a pittance compared to typically snowier states, but for Maryland—and a snow lover like me—this is a pretty big deal.
