some of the nicknames i can remember having

DISLAIMER -- you will not be able to make sense of the rest of this post. it is comprised of edits and reedits from multiple posts made in multiple platforms.

yo, unbelievable. so i'm using mars edit now, which is a blogging program. and i think that when it's uploading my photos it's not uploading them to blogger so it's not conforming to my template, so it's just a whole mess.

wow. hmm i might remove my "the internet" links and "Ray Kurzweil expects you to live forever" links. or is that wack? unclear i'm bout to do this again tho, check it, i just have to drag and drop images

some of the nicknames i can remember havingin various friendships and groups

Cheese

Bear

Hurricane

the limitations of mars edit, and muir woods

so if i upload like a high res photo in mars edit, it just blows it up. i think maybe i have to put html tags in there or something? i dono. but here are 5 photos of muir woods in the meantime. and here's the link for muir woods. go there sometime. the forest, i mean --

Muir Woods National Monument (U.S. National Park Service)

_______ and ____

What up folks. Yo I’m bloggin up a storm. Lemme get some love here. I’m crushing it. not posting enough photos or links, not recapping enough weekends, but hey, better never than late. Oh wait, I mean…ahh forget it.

Quick hitters – celtics Thursday, world cup starts in 9 days. There’s a rugby event called the sevens that’s going on this weekend, and dartmouth is in it. dartmouth baseball plays miami in the ncaa tournament on Friday. Dartmouth heavyweight crew is ranked 7th (seventh!) in the ira regatta, and will be racing Friday morning in heat 3.

Ok I got a killer link for you. Somebody please try this. somebody with a surplus of printer ink. The site is so that you can upload a high res image, then it gives you a pdf that you can print out, then you attach them all together to create a poster. Amaaaaaazing. (thanks YV)

The Sect of Homokaasu - The Rasterbator

Here are some photos of boston. I hope it’s not too annoying that I really like putting up cool photos of boston and massachusetts, but whatever. Ok here’s the story behind these photos:

Wildfires in Quebec cast their pall into New England - The Boston Globe

Yeah, so there were some forest fires in canada, and all the smoke made its way down through new england. It was super weird on Monday – everything was really hazy. I kept on thinking that my glasses were smudged or that there was something in my eye. It was odd. In some communities people were calling the police and complaining that it smelled like burnt rubber. It wasn’t that bad, and not really a nuisance, but I swear everywhere you looked you saw this weird haze.

Gria

Hey folks how’s it going? I’m writing this post in microsoft word. I will then post it from microsoft word into blogger.com. I want to make this a new thing, because I think it makes the text more legible (or speakable!), and this is very important. I’ve gotten away for a long time without paying much attention to capitalization, punctuation, or appreciation for the wonders of the English language well-written. Perhaps this is a sign of change.

I’m now writing more formally. Or am I? there, I just capitalized that i. but oh no! that t and that I didn’t capitalize either. Hmmm.

Well, this post is called gria cause I drank a bunch of gria tonight. Oh, right, I mean SANgria. Not saint gria, just sangria. A friend called with an urgent request -- she had made a lot of sangria a couple days ago, and tonight would probably be the last night that it would be good to drink. i answered the call. I think the kind I drank tonight was just merlot, triple sec, brandy, and fruit. Maybe some other stuff. It was great!

Oh yeah, I got a gria recipe from a friend. Here it is (I think I remembered it right [also, I don’t know how much of each you’re supposed to put in there. I’ll try to find out tomorrow])

Sangria that makes you drunk:
Raspberry Stoli
Bacardi Limon
Shiraz
Peach Schnapps
Sprite
Sour Mix

Isn’t that ridiculous? I gotta confirm it, but I think that might have been the right recipe.

Ok this boozy post is gonna come to an end and I’m gonna go watch an episode of deadliest catch.

Have a good view from the boat. Good night, and good luck, Dave
