The Bucs won. I had a good time. Chris and I played Teras Kasi and MTV Snowboarding and argued at length about logic, infinity, nanophysics, the soul, “dark matter”, and relationships until 4 am. Then we watched the Simpsons. Chris is doing well. He has a really cool girlfriend named Al. She burned me a copy of the Orange County soundtrack, which is just great music.
I listened to the CD she made all the way home. There’s a new Foo Fighters song on it! w00t! I can’t believe Social Distortion is still a band … Oh, and this morning at like 3 Chris and I heard Eddie Vedder doing “Hey, You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Away” on the radio. Way cool. Chris lives about an hour and forty-five minutes south of me, but since people in Los Angeles have absolutely not the slightest clue about how to drive in an extermely light drizzle, it took me almost two and a half hours in both directions. The other chick in the photo of Al is Carissa (although I doubt that’s how to spell her name). She’s cool, too. Her girlfriend Bonnie was there last night as well. We played Trivial Pursuit Genus 5 for a bit. The girls got mad because Chris and I were the only ones that knew any of the answers, so we quit and just played a*****e for a few hours. Crazy. I haven’t played that in … well … since the last time I visited Chris. We had fun.

Irony of ironies.
That I brought you up in the tradition of the Boston Celtics during the glory years of the Larry Bird/ Kevin McHale/Robert Parish era of Celtics basketball, and you would be spending a Christmas day at the hated Forum, actually cheering for the Lakers? Tell me you were there as a disinterested bystander, an observer, but please don’t tell me you raised your voice in their support. Ever.

I just want to know what it says on Chris’s shirt.
Hey! I can’t believe I forgot to mention that. It’s the coolest t-shirt! It says, “The truly educated never graduate.”
And where can we get such a shirt? He says with a smirk but totally sincere, realizes that Gagne does NOT work at Kmart nor L.L. Bean.
David, thought maybe you could help me with something. I started playing one of those online subscription games from Sony Entertainment. I played for several months and then quit. I haven’t played it for over a year now. Yesterday I got a credit card statement that showed that SOE had charged me a $143 subscription fee. I was shocked – turns out I had forgotten to cancel the subscription! So, I called SOE and asked for a refund. They refused – not company policy. So I called higher up the chain of command – same answer we don’t do refunds. I really feel like I’ve gotten bureaucratically mugged. I finally sent my plea to someone in accounting named Lyman Tuttle. I really hopes he gets my message and can take action to refund my $143 dollars.
