"50 Blocks Away"

"50 Blocks Away"

this article is from June 24, 1874. incredible, so much still true

you can get this pdf here : THE COLLEGE REGATTA.; THE DARTMOUTH CREW.

"Dartmouth College is situated upon a plateau behind the east bank of the Connecticut River, and, though exceedingly picturesque in its surroundings, labors under the disadvantage of being up in a corner, and very hard to get at."

and the best part is that i found this just by googling dartmouth crew

any competition





























































any competition

really cool animations and ads here, including the cool black and white PS3 ones, superfad

some cool music places with some mix downloads Lowpro Lounge

The Flying Skulls

laurens near davis on bay state for the backyard bbq smoking firepit kegger. cops showed once, were creeping, but everyone moved inside and it didnt get busted. just hacked, crashed, got up early-style so that i can go to bed at 11pm tonight

11pm, 23:00 hours. twenty three hundred hours. its a good time, an early time, and 11 + 8 is 19 but it's also 7AM, which is when i should get up

went to faneuil today, fun as always, i like it down there but it gets supercrowded, parked in that garage, met up with rabbott, sidestepped the street performers and crushed wagamama. yasai katsu curry, raw juice, raw salad, couple gyoza. hmmmmm yum

walked through urban outfitters but i don't think they have stuff that's XXL and i certainly didnt find any mothers day presents inside.

couple doors down to crate and barrel, got mom some things, namely coasters, dish cloths, and a leather tray thing, bright colors, oh yeah and flowers. and the card too, so i'm 3 for 3. feeling pretty good about it

lovely day out today, good day for going in the field and hacking and throwing a bee and kicking the soccer ball. it's like the green out there

lucky kat




































lucky kat

i got these from Greg Pence: Graphic Novels and Cartoons. dartmouth animation guy

today just listened to how the mayans invented television and tons of dubstep, good times, some mexican food, pecan pie, celebration foods. lucky kat is a magic hat ipa

wmbr in cambridge is first on your fm dial. finally chatted with jonathan today, wmbr on dj on aim, which was cool. you can see how this is fun, sub bass

celtics are down big at the half, just turrible.

that's pretty

gggggg




























gggggg

super tired, absolutely bonkers week, a rolling coaster for sure

went to this dartmouth thing tonight for a second, totally random, free scotch tasting at the harvard club by the glenlivet, didnt really drink or eat anything cause we got there too late, but did get a cool leather bowl thing that looks like the end of a football turned inside out

better than the 16 year if you ask me. also went to a basement pong game and came away with a tall wooden shelving thing that's now in my room. i put up some pink fliers on my wall but i'm not sure they work

finally lost the blogging every day streak. to be honest it feels weird not blogging every day! so i'll try to maintain.

weather is lame, i'd like it to be warm and sunny the next couple of days. but you can't always exact what you want

season starts





























season starts

i got this photo from babayan's desktop

marcal and armen are here. im eating sunflower seeds that sometimes get stuck in your throat. i think the feed looks better on csn, but they think it looks better on espn. 852 vs 840

flurry of events and baffling goings on.

on a lighter note, sylvia is flying into boston next week and she and company are going to green key next weekend. id like to make it, even if just for a night

until last night, until last night

lovely weather, everyone goes outside and sits. the whole city goes out the door and sits.

played basketball on the court today and someone had fixed the 4th net, so now all 4 nets are good.

thereabouts

technology and information

across all the companies

yahoo and google and all the big guys too

the alarm on my cell phone

















the alarm on my cell phone

i don't recall where i got this photo from

my alarm is set for 7:30 am. this morning i failed to get up immediately, and didn't get out of bed until 8am. not cool! i'm trying to think up strategies to get out of bed at 7:30 am and not get back into bed.

it's a study and an exercise and a work in progress

tengo sueno, and it's only monday. theoretically i should be in bed at 11:30pm every night. which is unheard of for me. i think i need to make 12:30 my goal, or at least it will be tonight

i've cut out caffeine from my diet to help me fall asleep when i want to, and i know it'll work. this means only caffeine free diet pepsi and coke, no more of the regular stuff, or diet mountain dew for that matter. or red (crack) bulls.

matt's parents brought an enormous apple pie. i drank all my milk with some homemade scrumptious chocolate chip cookies, so the pie (pah) will have to wait.

k, keeping eyes open is hard work, i make sure i don't nod off by never resting my head in my hands at all during the day

things of that nature





















things of that nature

i got this photo from Better Never Than Late!, which is a blog

sometimes it comes in the form of bruce bowen

watched some man vs wild, zambia, eating caterpillars, yuck

took it easy today, my back was hurting bad yesterday afternoon at work, hopefully ill get a good chair this week

i got up, paced, lifted weights. i feel like at this point it'd be really easy for me to get really out of shape because being seated for 35 hours a week is pretty much the worst way to be physically active.

i was extraordinarily tired last night and am drowsy now too. got some indian food from desi dhaba on foodler. seeing how mundanely i can decribe my wonderful peaceful day

there's been rain. it rained on the soccer field behind my apt. ps my apt is ridiculous and my neighbors and landlord and the guy that's supposed to be the handyman/landscaper are all ridiculous too.

it's cinco de mayo on monday, but i'm not really sure what that means. i did get picante today, i know what that means, it means i'm addicted to getting mexican food from the same place a couple times a week

lemme throw some random links up:

here are strange large scientific images, one of my fave websites of all time, you have to select something from a pulldown menu, hit search, then click on one of the zoom magnification strengths Blue Histology - Large Image

i don't wear fitted hats, but here's a cool one Boston Red Sox Circle Logo Navy Fitted Hat

"My experience with Spanish open-source software entrepreneurs"


























"My experience with Spanish open-source software entrepreneurs"

faith took this photo. it involved two lenses.

Shannah has a blog about handbags. It's called Bags for Bitc*** (my editing). check it out!

here's a piece on paul pierce's menacing hand gesture. A short history of throwing threes

jeff is speaking at the union college steinmetz symposium tomorrow morning at 10:30. my parents will see him, i won't (which bums me out). a site on this event is here

jeff titled his speech "My experience with Spanish open-source software entrepreneurs." nice work Jeff!

i miss you, wish i could see you, sorry things didn't work out. let's figure something out

2nd day of work today. got my basic wonderful breakfast (routine is great sometimes), sat in the tiny office chairs, got lunch with my dad, sat back down in a tiny office chair, did downtown, stood up on the red line, hoofed home.

like......like....like.............what did i leave out

well, it was fun while it lasted

















well, it was fun while it lasted

the not working that is. i gotta go to sleep. i've enjoyed not working for half a year, unfortunately it's time to get back on the train.

night train

got up at 7 37, got breakfast, same ppl working there, thanked the cook, got a badge, waited in line for the elevator, crushed payments, went outside downtown, dealt with the afternoon, made it home

meditated, watched cavs wizards, cheered on the celtics, ate junk food, saw a new south park, hung out forever, went and got falafel palace

hopefully i goto sleep at 11:30 tmrw. what kind of word is hopefully?

what kind of adverb is optimistic?

man, all that blogging sure helped me get a job!





















man, all that blogging sure helped me get a job!

this photo is from Maine Bear Monitoring, more cute photos of bear cubs. thanks Alexandra!

I got a job in downtown boston, operational securities processing, a thrilling temp job! I start at 9am tmrw.

I def plan on going to the hungry traveler, which is on court sq in boston right near city hall, you can read a great review of it here Bostonist: The Hungry Traveler

I used to go to it every single morning, and get the same thing, two scrambled eggs and dark rye toast. I didn't even have to order or say anything when I walked in, he or she just let me know when it was ready

This breakfast is so crucial. Eggs and toast is one of the best things in the world.

I’d like to thank all that supported me on this blogging adventure and my job search. I’ve had a grand total of 6 job hunts, which has resulted in 3 full time jobs, 2 part time jobs, and 1 internship. What a long strange craiglist monster and careerbuilder fueled trip it’s been

Oh yeah there’s a program for Mac, called RAR expander. You can download it here. get the stable version

If you ever download .rar files you should get it. I was having problems expanding some files with stuffit, and this program saved the day

Rain and Windy! fl owwwwwwww ers
