I had a great weekend. Played games with 40 other high-functioning nerds and got to be the giant talking cockroach, the 30s gangster with tommy guns for hands and the Engliish WWI deserter dillatante. Good times!

And in some Real Life (TM) excitement, Sophie got hit on by the Panamanian Men's Soccer Team. "Muy linda! Muy linda!"

Apparently we were sharing the same Boston hotel....

Did you get a chance to see our under 20 boys beat Brazil? I was stunned, not just by the victory, but the stellar play for our side. Freddy Adu was the best player on the field hands down.

Good article, thanks for the link. I totally agree that the English (and even more so American) coaching philosophy just doesn't cut it in football, like it might in some pure aggression sports like American football and Ice Hockey. Creativity and spontaneity is just too important to weed it out in favor of pure speed, strength and discipline.

Can't wait for Wednesday's game vs. Uruguay!

There's a reason the great Macedonian general Alexander used mercenaries in his vanguard rather than to protect his flanks.

(T)Huggy Bear coacheth the PowerCats no more.

Former K-State Men's Basketball coach Bob Huggins has accepted a job with his alma-matter, West Virginia, thus proving that even a university crappier than K-State can still exude some kind of "hey, didn't you go to school here?" charm....

Jesus doesn't want any more emotionally regressive codependants-- He's got several million of those already.



Ya know, I think you're right.

While beating Kentucky is always a thrill, especially in the NCAA tournament, it just doesn't feel the same without making Ashley Judd cry.

While celebrating the victory of my beloved Buckeyes, I was concerned for your well being following that heartbreaking loss to the Bruins. Cheer up there's always next year and don't worry if Florida doesn't knock them off the Buckeyes will.
severus:
well, i think it's too hard to find somewhere to live here in sweden, get a place - not happening without a job - there are no jobs , checked latest today - just had three weeks with panic medication - can't rush it - so, it's just a too big machine. however, being able to get out of here anyway is an option as in stay a friend's places, take pics, try and get over more fears... but i'm thinking later this year, just go and work with the tibetan kids and see if i survive it! just do it...... well, not without my meds cause with constant panic attacks nothing is happening and i had that for too long. i don't even know where i want to live. i want to just go around for a while after being "stuck" for so long.

goofy man, you can't get jeri curl, because you have such short hair! i think you should grow your hair out and then we can see who has softer hair. and who has hair that's cooler to style when wet. i bet you could win that one. and then after those competitions, you can get jeri curl.


although, isn't it jheri curl? i somehow think so.

and, it's almost time for forensic files. frosted!

the inevitable return of the 80s must be executed with taste and precision.

^^ yeah, i don't know why this shit won't embed.

good afternoon and salutations to you, sir. i finished school friday and am presently revelling what i like to call 'weekday-afternoon-lazy-directionless-motherfucker-time.' it's what happens before i triumphantly/abundantly return to the gym and continue undoing the physical evils that beauty school hath wrought.

If my kid was fresh like this, I'd start a Catholic-sized family.

FOR GREAT B-BOY JUSTICE!




^ This kid is 25 months old. Have you ever seen a two-year old dance? When they just bob up and down and grin and drool? THIS KID CAN FREEZE. Plus, he top-rocks, which is just hella cute.

DC2020 sent me this little slice of the future is now:

From Wired blog: Hacking My Child's Brain, pt. 1:

My son's brain can't handle all of the sensory input his body is sending him. Caleb has Sensory Processing Disorder, the human equivalent of a computer that can't adequately multitask, or a network that drops packets when there is a lot of traffic. All...

True...those pesky little buggers. Always killing my friends and taking stuff.

A long time ago, back when I was in the first or second grade, so a very long time ago, we had a small class of kids at my elementary school who had special needs. There was one that suffered from a disorder I didn't fully understand. If you touched him, even if you did it very lightly, he reacted like you had hit him. It's possible that he had this particular order as well in that he could handle looking at you but, if you touched him at the same time it became hard to handle, I don't know. Even back then I felt so bad for him thinking that he couldn't even be comforted by a hug from his mother because in his mind, it would hurt too much.
