Back Home

Well, Dave, Nick and I finally arrived back home after a really long drive. 25 hours actually - and we did it straight through. And getting only 2 hours of sleep the night before leaving doesn't help a bit! So I'm not exaggerating by saying I was tired when I got home. So much so that I walked right into a screen door! Ouch.

Heres a picture of our graduating class:



(props to Mr. K for the photo!)

Panoramic shots


A pano of the quad from 3rd floor. I also have some others, including a 360 view of the quad (which isnt that great, I'm going to redo it sometime) and you can see them on my site if you'd like - Panoramas

A Collection of Quotes

"It is better to deserve honors and not have them than to have them and not to deserve them."
- Mark Twain

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.

- JRR Tolkien

"It is a profitable thing, if one is wise, to seem foolish."
- Aeschylus

"A word to the wise ain't necessary - it's the stupid ones that need the advice."
- Bill Cosby

"You can determine how confident people are by listening to what they don't say about themselves."
- Brian G. Jett

"There is so much good in the worst of us, and so much bad in the best of us, that it ill behoves any of us to find fault with the rest of us."
- Anonymous

"May you be a half an hour in heaven before the devil knows you're dead!"
-Irish saying

Me? I'm dishonest, and a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for, because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly... stupid.
-Jack Sparrow, in "Pirates of the Caribbean"

2 Months later!

Wow I cant believe its been almost that long! Oh well, I guess that means Im busy with school work and thats a good thing.

Well, this is going to be short. Im supposed to be writing a paper. (Isn't it funny how you just look and look for something to do other than what you're supposed to be doing! Thats life I guess.)

Thats what it was, I just remembered. The retreat caused the drought in posts. After retreat (which was awesome) computers/internet just seemed so unimportant. Anyway, time has been flying, graduation is a little more than a month away. Recently life has been a blur of history quizzes, good ol' metaphysics, Lent, cafeteria "food," pictures, dancing hamsters, a recent square dance, and things like this:

No, Dave's drumming isn't THAT bad! Will just had a bone to pick with him!

Well, must go back to that wonderful history paper! But not before your picture of the day (or more like month!)



I thought this fit the occasion pretty well!


By the way, my smugmug site has a new look and lots of new pictures!

P.S. The "quotes" post will be a collection of all my "Quotes of the Day". I dont know why I didnt think of that before!

Canisius Cup

March 1-4, 2006 we held the Canisius Cup ping-pong tournament. It was the most ping-pong Ive played in a long time, and the most fun Ive had in a while too. We had a little more than a dozen that competed, but the best were from the dorm. I got pretty dang close to taking it all - after beating the unbeatable Joe Stannus in a preliminary round, I lost to him in the finals, but it was awesome all the same. Heres a photo:



Here are some more - theres some videos too.

And I must include the funnies!

hockey and lightning and all that stuff

What to do on a boring night in the dorm...well theres lots, especially if someones got full hockey equipment! Dave suited up so we could take a few shots. Yuppers, right in the junior wing!


Same night, we went out to check out a lightning storm that was happening a few miles away; it was a cloudy night so it was lighting up the whole sky - pretty impressive. Heres one of the shots I got:


And some other random pictures - heres one of me hiding behind a pole while we were throwing the baseball around over at the Carrolls:


Will Watner playing some serious hockey:


A (not so?!) serious lab team.

We may not have done the best in our lab, but we sure had a heck of a lot of fun!
