So back when I was playing ultimate more regularly I would take my camera. I took it to North Carolina for Queen City Tune-up. Several weeks ago, a guy who also contributes ulty pictures to Flickr asked if he could use one of my QCTU pictures for a banner for a PR campaign that they’re [...]

What’s been going on in my life lately? WHO CARES! Moot court is finished. At least for the fall. Octofinalists are announced on the 17th. Unlike some folks, I am not playing it off as though I don’t want to advance or don’t care. I’d like to advance. I won’t lose any sleep over it if [...]

First off, at Key Club International Convention last week my baby sister was elected to Key Club International Trustee… the Holiday Dynasty rolls on. Congrats, sis! Today the Ultimate Frisbee team went 4-0 in pool play at our tournament. I played alright, though not a whole lot because I haven’t been making practices. I had no [...]

So, we got second in our tournament. We lost 14-15 to Miami of Ohio in the finals. It was fun, but we lost two games, and I hate losing. Now, I’m not going to sell myself short… I do some pretty ridiculous things on the fields. There are, of course, plenty of people who do [...]

First off, don’t forget to AskPete — I’ve only got a few usable questions left. Friday I left first thing in the morning to catch a flight to Austin (via STL). The team wanted us to be at the airport three hours early. This was ridiculous, so I went two hours early. I got some work [...]

Got the appellate brief finished last night, it’s beautiful. At first I thought that Erica (my partner) and I might have problems because neither of us are exactly “get it done early” sort of people, but we worked together really well and after seeing how many problems other teams had when “get it done early” [...]

Let’s just be brief about this, because re-living it is not something I’d want to do… at least today. The tournament was good. The Tournament Director was, it seemed, incompetent. Maybe it’s more fair to say tha the only really cared abuot the 16 teams in the power pools. Indiana-A was one of them. Indiana-B was [...]

Is it wrong that every time Rock You Like a Hurricane comes on my iTunes, I think how inappropriate it would have been if the bands of SEC teams had learned how to play it and done so when they played LSU? Because I do. Every time. Sometimes I also think about other things. Like the fact [...]

Yeah, I’m disappeared. I’ll be back, but maybe not before Wednesday. (FMM will probably not be around until then, either) I’ve got some catching up to do with school work, projects, and taking care of some vehicular issues. And then there’s tomorrow. Singlehood Awareness Day. Or Valentine’s day. Whichever you prefer. No having any “singlehood” of [...]

This weekend I’ll be in Charlotte at my first tournament of the spring with the IU Ultimate team. IU is ranked #24 in the nation right now, and we’ve got some tough competition this weekend, but nothing we can’t handle if we play hard and stay focused. The college ultimate community is generally slow to [...]
