Following on the success of 1977 Star Wars, a Public Service Announcement takes place in the cantina on Tattooine…

Volleyball Herzbruch

We made it to the finals last night. Then we lost 27 to 26. So, all-in-all, it was a decent season. Especially considering that Nate and I were the only ones that had played volleyball together in the past… And that had only been a few nights last summer.

We did rather well getting second place. I am not sure how many teams there were, but I would guess around 15 to 20.

It sounds as though we will be doing the summer league, which starts the week after next.

Downhill…

Wow, no wonder over 80% of Tech Rescue’s clients were ex-Geek Squad clients. They don’t even [url=http://ask.slashdot.org/askslashdot/06/06/28/0034257.shtml]fix[/url] anything anymore. They just send it off to other companies to do the actual work…

Whatchew talkin bout Willis?

I was reading my friend Lem’s blog this morning and came upon this:

“I’m willing to bet that our modern society has already passed the turning point where if you see a person talking aloud to themselves in a public area, you will assume they’re talking on a phone before you assume that they’re talking to themselves. This may be swayed by the observation of the person or the place (rich person in a plaza vs. poor person on a bus), but I’ll bet that most urban and suburban citizens will assume a cellphone, even if they cannot confirm the presence of a phone, before they assume a mental condition.”

Boy I sure hope this is true when it comes to me talking to all the voices in my head!
