It's Cold In Here

Up to 66 degrees. One hour to go on this thing and it's done, no matter how I feel about it. It's OK, though.

Another Weekend In The Office, II

It's Saturday and 64 degrees in here. I wear jackets when it's drops below 70 outside. I've been here 10 minutes and my hands are already like ice. Finishing up my research paper. How ever it looks at midnight is how it will stay. At least this will be the last weekend here for the next month or so.

Another Weekend In The Office

Just a reminder to myself that I am putting some effort into my schoolwork, sacrificing lots of TV watching. It's a balmy 62 degrees in here today. I would have come in yesterday too if it were not for taking David bowling; cleaning out the HHS concession stand; going to get a Christmas tree; and spending six hours at the Sangerville Ruritan Club for a youth bowling league fund-raiser. This must be the third or fourth weekend in a row I will be spending at least eight hours at the office. Just a reminder in case I one day think grad school was a breeze. At least the Redskins are making it easy with another lousy season.

No more political ads :)

For another nine months or so.

Once in a full moon

Baltimore Orioles' pitcher Kris Benson gives us the bonehead quote of the week.

Benson was asked Tuesday (9/5/2006) for his thoughts about the seven shutouts in Major League Baseball, the most shutouts in one day in the past 30 years. Kris got off to an OK start, but ... Here's what he said:

"It's a freakish day, that's all - especially with all the home runs that are being hit and all the offense in the American League. It's tough to understand why something like that happens. It's just one of those things, like a full moon."

For the sake of planet Earth, I'm sure it's a good thing we have a full moon more than once every 30 years.
