So, my birthday is coming up…

by clay on October 31, 2006

I told my wife that for my birthday I wanted to buy two of the Delirious? CDs that I don't have yet. (Obviously. If I had them, why would I buy them again? Brilliant writing by me. And here I am now, lost in this parenthetic, wondering how to get out of it. I don't [...]

I’m upset

by clay on October 25, 2006

I'm taking a programming class in grad school and up until this week, my average in the class has been a perfect 100. An assignment I turned in last week didn't come back perfect though.

Kansas basketball

by clay on October 17, 2006

No, not just the University of Kansas. In fact, there have been more stories this last week about the start of basketball practices at other schools in Kansas than about KU. That's saying something.

I think it's great that Dove is doing this. They have a very interesting campaign going on right now.
