eh pretty clever for a random creative blogpost huh?

i didn't go to that show last night because i got sick, but i'm feeling better now. stupid stomach bug

widgets are cool, i just installed a blogger widget to show who comes to the page

although these widgets are kind of cool. i'm always looking at them when i'm on this computer which is falling apart, monitor held together by binder clips, guts and cables spilling out

my network works fine now after i got mad at comcast then realized it was my fault because all i needed to do was turn off the turbo on my router (dummy)

my calendar is cool, the neon green on black is a fave of mine, design is pretty brilliant too, thanks to apple

the sol widget that shows you where you are in the day with the sunrise and sunset is pretty cool. cept i never seem to be too conscious of when the sunrise and sunset are. i'm always sleeping through the sunrise, and i don't have any great view of a sunset, more of a church, which isn't so bad

the upload/download widget is cool and shows me how rapidly i'm depleting the few square inches of space i have left on my hard drive

the weather widget is awesome, seems like the weather is always up to something! except you know what i find kind of annoying? get this -- when there's only like a 20 or 30 percent chance of rain then the icon turns to rain?!!?? but that only means it might rain!! ya know?!?!

yeah, you know what i mean, i think i'm just bitter from all the rain this summer

i've become a professional music downloader, i've been pretty lucky and gotten pretty good and come across some really good stuff. here is a pretty amazing mp3 disclaimer i found. oh yeah mp3 disclaimers are for *******

"You can not download music from this page just you can watch links. In spite of this webpage come into being for popularization of electronic music.If you even so decide to download this PROMOTION music than you do this your own responsibility and you have to remove this within 24 hours then again you commit delinquency.You can purchase original version in shops."

in that spirit...

from the wikipedia entry for bao xishun, who is the 2nd tallest person in the world (first tallest is this poor guy in ukraine who wishes he wasn't tall):

"In December 2006, Bao Xishun was asked by veterinarians to assist them in removing shards of plastic from the stomachs of two dolphins. The dolphins had accidentally swallowed the shards, which had settled in their stomachs and caused a loss of appetite and depression. Veterinarians had failed to remove them, so Bao Xishun used his 1.06 metre-long arms to reach into the dolphins' stomachs, to remove the plastic manually.[3] The manager of the aquarium, the Royal Jidi Ocean World, confirmed, "When we failed to get the objects out we sought the help of Bao Xishun from Inner Mongolia and he did it successfully yesterday. The two dolphins are expected to make a full recovery."[4] (A similar operation was performed by American basketball player Clifford Ray, who was asked to use his long arms to save a California dolphin in 1978.)[5]"

i've been here and there, keeping busy, people coming back and going, plenty of relaxing alternating with aspirations and intermittent accomplishments.

hung out with roommates and a couple friends last night then went to ben s.'s place to watch sox and eat nasty allston village pizza, couple laughs...

gotta find some better photos, gotta put in work. get new glasses, spend time on the imac at home, get a new keyboard, transfer music (i've been steadily downloading and deleting off this hard drive for way too long now)

going up to dartmouth sept 26-28 for a crew reunion thingie, should be fun.

i went to burritos express near downtown crossing today. i had the best burrito of my life. the place also got best burritos in the boston magazine best of boston issue, so i had to try it, and it is TRUE i tell you

after a long time spent not liking typing in CAPS, i think i like typing in CAPS again. i always felt that typing in caps was the same as shouting, which i guess is still true. caps do seem loud and angry, which i don't like, but you can't doubt their EFFECTIVENESS

things that i am into right now -- cutting back on tv watching and reading more books, considering interlibrary loan rather than travelling to suburban libraries, weekends, walking, boston college football, sunshine

i am going to the sox game on friday night with chris. i'm super pumped.

let's see if i can start blogging again and start WRITING. because WRITING is a lot of fun and very satisfying and a great thing to share

k, i'm reading J.M. Coetzee. love him. pretty challenging, but he is cunning. reading "Inner Workings: Literary Essays 2000-2005". it's awesome! pick it up at your local library!

i gotta get a boston public library card too.

i'm also considering scheduling shoulder surgery for september. one of the biggest decisions i've ever made in my life, but i may be making too big a deal of it, probably because i've put it off for FOUR years

went to this show last night at phoenix landing, yayyy!!! saw DJs and dudes and kids, made plans with B. Ladd for Tue eve.

the bass was turned up so high that the bartender had to come over and say that his ears couldn't handle it. that's some heavy heavy bass, sub frequencies

Incyde is the man, lotsa dub effects here too, good decks and good system.

Carnival (car nee vawl) was in central sq yesterday, but i blew it and didnt see it and played basketball and did vertical leap exercises and watched olympics instead

watched olympic ping pong (amazing), and watched us v spain basketball (one of the greatest international games ever)

olympics have been mad fun, wanna watch some more on my dvr at home and watch sailing and some of the martial arts on the iMac at home. good times!

in case you can't tell, sometimes I get amped about things. as you know, i tend to get really amped sometimes. this is one of those times. i might have to stay up all night Friday to watch rowing. get excited.

Elliot Hovey, Olympian

Elliot Hovey, Olympian

Elliot Hovey is an Olympian. He is the man. I rowed with him out of Boston Rowing Center for a summer in high school. He sat behind me in 4 seat when we won the Junior Mens 8+ Gold Medal in the summer of 2000. I remember that we crossed the finish line and he splashed water on me and gave me a celebratory shoulder shake.

Elliot is from Manchester-By-The-Sea, Massachusetts. He went to Salisbury School. Elliot also won the IRA National Rowing Championship gold medal in the Varsity Heavyweight 8+ in 2006 with my high school coxswain, Tim O'Connell, who is also the man.

Elliot is representing the United States of America in the double along with Wes Piermarini, who is from West Brookfield, Massachuetts and went to the University of Massachusetts, where he was a walkon on the heavyweight crew.

They begin racing Saturday. Watch, and wish them good luck!
