Gentlemen, this post is not for you. You should still read it, though, because odds are good that you know someone who needs to read this. Ladies1, this post is not comprehensive. I promise that there are lots of other chances for you to royally screw up your life aside from these. Now pay attention, [...]
I generally turn funny quotes from class into away messages… but I’m full of those and a new semester is starting, so I’m getting rid of the away messages featuring professors that I no longer have… but I don’t want them to disappear entirely, so I’m listing them all here for my own amusement. Crim with [...]
Continuing on with the second of two parts (see Part I)… JULY I made one of the best meals I’ve ever eaten at the third installment of Tuesday Night Dinner Club. The frustrations at work increased (and then some) but I was still running. AUGUST I had a gunfight with Manny. I finished all of my coursework… but still [...]
So for the past few years I’ve been doing a “year in review” post (2004, 2003) and it always ends up being ridiculously long, I’m sure this year will be no exception, so we might as well get started, right? I’m splitting this into two parts… Part I is Jan - Jun… Part II will be [...]
I was starting to compile the Best Q2, 2005 candidates and I had a really hard time paring the April posts down to just two. So I set up a primary. Observe April 6: MY IU Weekend, Your Words This post is the result of a “My Weekend in Your Words” post, which can be found here. [...]
The plans for a Sunday night departure to Birmingham fell through. Just like the shuttle, I’ve been delayed. I’m still going to The Ham tonight for dinner with Abby but then I’m coming back to finish up packing and going to leave tomorrow morning. But why? Some of you who chastised me yesterday for not having [...]
Well… it’s about that time again… time to start selecting the best posts of the year. We’re going to cover the first quarter (Jan-Mar) of 2005, but I have to warn you… this was not a very good stretch, apparently, and I had to work hard to find posts worthy of your voting. January 14: Beef: [...]
Well… it’s that time — time to crown Pete’s best post of 2004. It was a good year — over 700 posts (almost 2 a day) and some of them actually didn’t suck. Color me surprised. Anyhow… let’s just finish this up, okay? February 14 Ode to being Single Sure, sure. We all need the self-loathing pity-parties [...]
It was suggested that, on account of the lack of quality in the fourth quarter of 2004, that I run a “wildcard” competition between the runners up of the other three polls. I thought this was a good idea. I also added the Intelligent Design post, as it seems to be the only Q4 post [...]
So I went back to read my last post. If I didn’t know that I was distracted when I wrote it (by food, sorry) I’d definitely have guessed that I was half retarded, heavily drugged, or both. Or maybe I’d guess that I was distracted, but I’m a little too judgmental for that, I think. So I’ve [...]
