Enjoy!
Oddly enough, it seems like every picture is either from the first or last day. No idea why that is, but it probably involves me losing my camera somewhere or something like that. When we go back again I’ll try to do a better job documenting everything.
Also, I’m listing all the previous picture sets I’ve put up, just in case you’ve missed any of them.

Pink Party

We’re doing an 8 team international tournament (named AARON SUX) in the house right now.
| Player |
Pool A |
Pool B |
| Me |
USA |
Canada |
| Aaron |
Slovakia |
Russia |
| Klein |
Czech Rep |
Finland |
| Steve |
Germany |
Sweden |
I’m 6-2 right now, 3-1 with each team, and am leading both pools. I have no idea anyone else’s record, but I know Germany is either 1-4 or 1-5, and only wins whenever Steve wins a fight with Bach. This game is way too fun.
Poker isn’t fun. I’m looking at 2 straight months where I don’t make enough to cover all my expenses and that sucks. I need to win more please.
Also, I’m resizing Vegas pictures right now, so they’ll be up within the hour. I’m not doing any editting on them though, so there will be redeye out the ass.
Finally, a list of movies watched this weekend:
Godfather (kinda, while playing RISK)
Hocus Pocus (twice)
Amityville Horror (James Brolin-style)
Robots
Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion
Parenthood (Staring Leaf “Now they call me Joaquin” Pheonix)
Problem Child 2

Since there’s going to be a big party here Friday (btw, you’re all invited, bring some friends, and byob) I figured you guys might as well get acquianted with the place. It’s a nickname party, so don’t be offended if you get a “Hello, my name is” sticker that doesn’t make sense. Don’t come without a sense of humor. If being ‘Rufio’ or ‘Foot Soldier #2′ or ‘Hit for the Cycle’ is going to piss you off, stay the hell home.
Anyway, I hate studying, and have nothing better to do at midnight to 4 am, so I whipped this bad boy up.
Virtual Tour of 511
I know it’s lacking, but don’t worry. Soon I’ll try to add Aaron’s, Steve’s, and Brett’s rooms and will definitely be adding the front porch, and balcony. I know you’re excited.
Also, the Vegas pictures are actually on my computer now, so I promise to post them before Ben and Gouda get here for the Our Lady Peace concert. It turns out that I have a lot fewer cool pictures than I was expecting, but whatever, you’ll deal. If I could get Casey’s pictures, sometime, that would be great.
I’m skipping databases tomorrow morning. That’ll make it a solid 32 classes I’ve missed so far this semester. Aaron has missed 24. He’s not good at skipping classes.

Check this kid’s site out. He’s made ~$250k in just a couple months. It’s ridiculous how good of an idea this is, but of course he thought of it, and it’s his prize now. You really can’t appreciate just how awesome this is without reading his blog, which is linked on the front page. Either way, well done man.
2 tests today went very opposite of each other. The databases test was really easy, and I finished in about 25 minutes. PDavis said that no one finished on time in his class, and no one else seemed ready to go in my class either. I don’t know, maybe it was the fact that I had to teach myself most of that logic last semester for my 4009 project.
As for economics, well that sucked. I was expecting a multiple choice test over a lot of concepts and graphs, and instead got a 9 question short answer test filled with calculations. That was a total bust, so I’m going to have to do a lot of work now for the rest of the semester in order to keep an A or B in there. God I hate humanities classes.
On a musical note, I just got a collection of Elliott Smith b-sides from a friend, and though I’ve never been a huge fan of him, these songs are absolutely amazing. I’ll try to get one or two of the best ones up so you can listen to them too.
Finally, go here and vote for Forest North Elementary School, and try to win them a free mobile computer lab from Dell. You can vote as many times as you want, so don’t be shy about wasting an hour or two of your life. As a bonus, you can test yourself against one of the hardest captcha systems I’ve ever seen. If you can get the verification code correct more than 70% of the time, you’re my hero.
Here’s an example:

FWIW, the answer is 64nx39
