  1. One of our better defensive games. Offensively we were a mess, but we're through to the kockout stage, so that's all that matters.
  2. A win/draw Thursday will get us out of the group stage. If we lose to Germany, I think a Ghana-Portugal tie will also sends us through. I wish the games weren't going to be at 9AM, because I definitely can't get away with being drunk that early in the day.
  3. England has a little over a 3% chance to move on. Don't think it'll happen. Also why wasn't this topic simply named The World Cup? Do people actually call it the world football championship?

    I'm much more appreciative of the friendships I've made with former classmates post-high school, then I am of the people I used to call my friends while in HS.

    Yeah, that was pretty spooky to hear about. I kept hearing people mentioning SPU around campus but didn't actually find out what happened until I got back to my room and checked the Internet. I don't know anyone who goes there, but it's only like a 10 minute drive away so I know a lot of people here knew students affected. Yeah, you're really close. Luckily SPU is a pretty small campus in north Queen Anne, so it wasn't as bad as it could have been had it been in the U District. Are you guys still in school?

    This morning as I was walking to get a coffee, a man was murdered on my route, police tape was everywhere, cops too, diverting me to another coffee shop. Murder's sad, but at the end of the day I was still going to get my coffee. I also got a call from my father right after discovering what happened and then was put on the phone with my 1 1/2 old niece, so my emotions at the time where all over the place, from overly outgoing-favorite-uncle to A MAN WAS JUST MURDERED!! Another note, Seattle Pacific University had a shooting spree today. Both my Older brother and younger sister attended the school their freshmen year before transfer to the U. I was saddened about that news.

    If Seattle got an expatiation, would they be able to claim the 1917 Stanley Cup as their own? The Seattle Metropolitans in 1917 where the first American team to win the Stanley Cup.

    I have several friends back home in Washington that are machinist. It's definitely seems that with the economy coming back, there are plenty of jobs for them to choice from, especially Boeing if you aren't afraid of the commute to Pain Field from north Seattle, if you'll be living in Shoreline too. I hope you do choose to move to Seattle, Justin, it's an amazing city and one of our countries best keep secrets.

    I actually thought Bow's story was going to end in an epic orgy as much as he referenced to how hot all the women where, so you can say I was a bit disappointed with the twist.

    Because it was the easiest way to get my phone back. I used the money as an incentive to draw the person with the phone out, which took only minutes to do after I offered a reward.

    I had my iPhone stolen from my hotel room sometime during the night, tracked it down to some crack hotel where I bought it back for $20.

    The only "smart drug" I'm interested in trying is Modafinil, I'm just too lazy to try for a prescription or find a seller.

    My brother is doing really well with his PolySci & Com major with a job in SF at an advertising agency. Actually having a PolySci major helped him in a lot of cases when he was looking for jobs because the person hiring usually was a PolySci major so it made him more easily relatable.

    Over the entire course of your life $80k is just a fraction of what you could make. So if you really want to do it, don't just think about the money, think of what you're getting in return.

    Does this make the UK the first EU member to legalize gay marriage?

    Grats Ginger! I haven't ran much since the end of summer, when April hits, I'm going to try to get my average 5k down to around 23. I've been running at an average of 26 mins lately, but I know once I lose a bit of this winter weight I should be able to get it done.

    My best in-public moment is really a everything you could do but sex in a hotel room while 8 other people sleep in the same room. I got called out on it like a year later, but I think all that was heard was some kissing, which I'll take if that's all that was known.. All my other stories, I know would get me a warning from Randox..

    It's pretty hard to mess up, getting on a plane. Just make sure you're at the right gate at the boarding time which is printed on your boarding pass (Usually bottom right corner), which is given to you when you check-in. Security is easy, just make sure you have a separate bin for a laptop, & another bin for all removable items from your person, and your carry-on bag doesn't need a bin. Are you flying from Seatac? If you are the best spot to get food is Beechers/Cafe Vita is terminal C. Anthony's Fish Bar is also good, quick option in the central terminal. Another pro tip is that you can take food/meals onto planes, which I highly recommend if your going to be doing a long flight.

    Got back from SXSW yesterday after 7 days of early mornings and late nights with all the free beer you can drink. Fun times.

    I always find it strange how many people haven't flow before 18.. People who haven't flow post-18 is mind-blowing to me, since I fly on average once ever 6 months. Since december I've flow 2 round trips, 1 one-way, and I just left this morning on my current trip to Austin, TX.
