of any sports event really sucks. How on earth did anyone decide that making up some lame, watered-down “myth” and acting it out with thousands of people wearing spandex (and usually with faux-native drums of some sort) over the course of a couple of hours could be a good idea? They usually border on the offensive, in fact, when they’re not simply embarrassing.
I can’t wait
for the release of OS X 10.1! I’ve been using OS X for over a month now and have only booted into OS 9 for less than an hour total since then. But the improvement looks like it will leapfrog over my already decent experience. Cool.
Heard today
at my weekly soccer game in Parc Lafontaine: CRACK (or perhaps CRUNCH is more accurate – probably both). As I came down from a wild header attempt into a little hole in the grass. I sprained my ankle quite severely, to the extent that I felt it necessary to go to the Royal Vic emergency room to check that it wasn’t broken. The sound of my ankle doing what it did was quite chilling – though nothing compared to an ACL that blows during a ski race or something, which sounds like a muffled gun shot. I was very happy with my hospital experience – even on a Sunday evening, I was in and out in under an hour, including x-rays and a very thorough consult with the attending emerg doc. And of course it didn’t cost me a cent. Long live socialized health care.
I bumped into
my friend Tomasz at our local cafe a few minutes ago, which prompted me to revisit pixelbox, his very cool art site. Fun for hours and hours! And evidently, much more to come shortly.
