Random night last night. Went out to a farewell dinner for roommate Geoff last night at ‘Beacon St’ and his friend Alan came along. Turns out he was a production assistant on the movie “Deep Impact”.

Last night I went to see the McLean High School girls basketball team lose to Madison High School’s Warhawks with Mr. G. Garrison, computer science and geometry teacher. Go hawks!
Afterward, viewed what was probably the best episode of ‘24′ ever. Not to ruin anything if you haven’t seen it yet, but Jack killed Nina. Kapow! [...]

Afterwards, we drifted to the surprise room awaiting at the Rouge Hotel to wear zebra-print terrycloth robes, drink wine from New Zealand, listen to M&C’s V-Day Weekend Zap 4 [...]

In 1913 on December 21 the world’s first crossword was published. At the time it was called a ‘word-cross’. Ya learn something new everyday, don’t ya?!
Speaking of crosswords, Valentine’s weekend begins today. It was invented in 1952 by Dr. Emmet J. Hallmark in a secret laboratory in Valley Hill, NJ. Experimentation with winged fat babies, [...]
