25-VIII-2006 or All good things...
by Aaron Shurtleff on August 25, 2006

Last night was the last night of the regular kickball season. The playoff tournament is going to take place while I am in Denmark, so I am done. I will miss kickball. I will definately have to play again next season. I mean, I'm bad, but it's a blast!

Also, for the second time in my life, I engaged in kareoke. Same result as last time: people laughed and looked embarrassed for me, while I had fun. I did a stunning rendition of "Bad Medicine" by New Jersey's own Bon Jovi. All hail me! :D

The song of the day, of course, must be "Bad Medicine"! Imagine it being sung wildly off key, and you'll get the effect. ;)

12 days. I'm starting to feel the pressure in my chest. Good thing I got all of the wild oats out last night! ;)

My throat still hurts. What I lack in skill, I make up for in volume and enthusiasm.

Do I have anything to talk about other than kareoke? Nothing that comes to mind easily.

I just heard about the passing of Maynard Ferguson. I'm not all that big into jazz or trumpets, but I did happen to see a show of his, and he was great. He lived a pretty full life, though, I think, and that's as much as anyone can hope for in this crazy world.

Moving on to the weekend!!!

8-II-2010 or *sigh*

Short one today. Looking at my GOO record, I found that the first GOO I ever guessed correctly was Ray Charles. That is also the first GOO that Russ Wilhelm guessed correctly, or at least that's what I am led to believe by looking at the GOO. Go »

8-X-2009 or ...Aaaand I'm Out.

I'm finishing up work, then going home, and flying the heck out of here for a week. See you all later! :) Big mystery trip. Go »

4-XII-2006, or The One About Mythbusters

I know that I am so late to the party here, but has everyone seen this Mythbusters show? I just watched it again for the first time a few weeks ago, and that is some good stuff right there! Holy crap!! Go »

14-X-2009 or ...Aaaand I'm Back

Short trip, what? Iceland was pretty cool (as in cold as sin), but I had a great time! Reykjavik is a cool little city, but outside of there...nothing. Go »

21-X-2008 or Hello, Facebook!

I got bored, so I now have a Facebook profile. It's pretty bleak, but I might work on it from time to time. Probably not, but you never know... Go »

14-VIII-2006 or "A bombardment?" "An OBSCENE one!!"

Random quote from a movie I watched a few years back called "Il Monstro", which is "The Monster" in Italian. It had that one Italian actor who has been doing most of the comedic roles lately (I think his name is Roberto Begnini, or something close to). It's pretty funny, I think. Go »
