More pictures were taken at our two practices this weekend… none of the ones from today were taken by me, but I thought I’d post a link to them anyway.
There are a lot of neat pictures in the group from today… like…
Me getting owned by… someone taller than me and someone shorter than me or, if you’d prefer to see me doing things other than getting beaten, there are pictures of me laying out. There are also really cool pictures of lots of other people, too.
Sometimes pictures that don’t turn out very well for displaying at large sizes can still be used for other stuff… like this sequence of me pulling the disc to start a point.

Now on to “other stuff”…
Today’s dilbert cartoon almost gave me flashbacks. (Archived here)
Not that we didn’t know this already, but as careers go, “Attorney” will stay in the top 25 for at least the next 5-6 years, though I suspect much longer.
The title of this post says it all: Tell me why I can’t wave my penis at the referee
Ever had a word on the tip of your tongue and just could not think of it for the life of you? Try a reverse dictionary search you type in a definition and it gives you the word. This is more advanced than just a thesaurus, btw.
Yay! Now our colleges and universties have a way to find out exactly where we are at all times! Don’t you feel safer now?
If you have a new laptop (Laura, listen up), here are some really great tips for you.
And, since it just happened1, the most inane IM conversation ever. Screenname anonymized to protect Kristina, since it’s hers.

I guess the lesson to be learned is “don’t let dickwads use your laptop to talk to people on AIM“. Or, maybe, don’t get on AIM when you’re drunk at 5:00 on a sunday. Either/or.
1 Childish? Maybe… but I have to cement my reputation as an asshole every now and again or I’ll lose it.

Oh. My. God.
I’m sorry Pete, I tried to mitigate, but apparently just made it worse. Oh well, I’m imortalized now!!!!

Nothing to be sorry about, I don’t suppose… it’s not like I’ve never been called names or told to fuck off before. In fact, I sort of make a habit of those things.
