I Know What True Evil Is


What sane human being leaves this little bit of ice cream in the carton for others to find???
My roommate, that's who.

The tease.

Whoa. . . magic!

Well, I had a photo to post here. A photo of the Shaolin Warriors taken at Proctor's Theatre (yes, I know you aren't allowed to photograph the performances there). I snuck a couple anyway, most of them sucked - too dark and those guys just move so fast! But as I sit to add this event to my list of 52 Firsts, all the pics have dissappeared from my camera - nothing else, just those.

Hmmmm. . .

I suppose my place isn't that difficult to break into. I mean, any ninja worth his salt could do it. Whatdyathink?

Can I Drive the Zamboni?

I'm not that used to taking photographs for anything other than art purposes. The idea of "Hey, look at me at such-and-such place" doesn't quite suit me. I don't like feeling like a tourist (even if I am one).

But I feel the slight need to have proof of my 52 Things. So here's a shot from the ice hockey game.

A curious thing. . . the fans had this overabundant and extreme hatred of one of the opposing team players (#24 Robitaille). I've never heard SO much profanity screamed at one person before. I have NO idea why the Albany fans hate him, but I kept thinking "poor kid!". He did, however, provide me with the most embarrassing display of cowardice I've ever seen. The players all seemed to be waiting for the right time to kick his ass and when the moment came and one of the Rats threw a punch, Robitaille dropped to the ice, face down in a protective fetal position.

WHAT?! Either fight back or take your beating, but don't do that! What kind of a hockey player are you?

My Big Fat (Yawn) Life

"So what have you done in your life?"

This is what I was thinking as I listed seemingly simple activities like riding go-carts on my future activities list. (Yes, I never did that as a kid). I can think of a few nifty things, but unfortunately they were, in most cases, a long time ago! SO. . . I have:

* Riden an elephant

* Traversed a corn maze (and somehow exited at the entrance, oops)


* Auditioned for a movie

* 'Surfed' the dunes in White Sands, New Mexico

* Experienced the Dragon's Wing - a distant cousin to bungee jumping, but close enough for me!

* Rappelled down both a tower and a cliff


* Helped break the record for most Volkswagens on a ferry.

Hmmm. . . still thinking. I'll update if anything else comes to mind.

And Mao said, "Let there be light."

The best asian food around here (that I've found so far) is at a place called Dragon Buffet. This is the wall right behind the cash register. I have to wonder about their electrician, though.
