Badminton rules


  Libby misses 
  Originally uploaded by activitystory.

I feel like I need to post about libby’s badminton skills, since this picture makes it look like she sucks. My god, she rules at badminton.  For the second time this month, I played badminton on and off at J’s for more than 3 hours in an afternoon, and Libby was in on every match. I blame the fact that she’s holding a beer for this miss.

Apparently she played a lot in college, and she has some insight into the game I’ve never seen before. J, Sam and most of the others are good as well, but none seem to have the speed, endurance, and finesse of Libby.

That’s hot!

Scott and Jeremy have posted what must be just about every photograph either has ever taken on flickr. Trei first brought this my attention on Saturday, and hooked us up with a pro account because he was so inspired by Scott (big thanks Trei!).

Bonus points for whoever can find the fattest picture of me!

The Crowning Touch of Taste

I’ve been eating lots of Best Maid Pickles lately. You know the ones, the neon yellow ones that are really really cheap.  You won’t find them in the refridgerated section.

But they are delicious. For me, they’re easier to eat because they resemble frogs much less than other "classier" pickles. Regardless of whether or not you care about my pickle consumption (I always feel compelled to tell Danielle when I’m in a pickle-eating phase, but I’m sure that not even she cares), you have to admit that whoever decided to place the little Best Maid girl logo of center on the lid is an unrivaled genius. Is there some sort of design award for third-rate grocery products? Because we have a winner.

Photo Essay Winner

If I could give an award for best photo essay, it would go to my friend Scott. Check this excellent illustration of a fun time over at Oh dog! you sleuth!.

His comments function on his site is down right now, but I had to say how much I laughed and laughed at this. I am very sad and jealous that I missed out on this experience.

Oh, and a Happy Birthday to Jeremy! Hope you had a fun time…
