Rugby
I went for a long bike ride through Delaware Park on account of the fantastic weather. First, there was a bunch of boy scout troops camping out. Troops from Kenmore and Eden drove into the city to camp. Sounds like a waste of good camping to me. But also in the middle of it all was a rugby game. I have never seen rugby played before but it looks like so much fun. But, I have no idea how it is actually played. One moment there is a circle of guys huddled around a mass of human and somewhere in that mess is a ball. Then the next that ball is kicked and people go scrambling for it.

But they were all very hot and it looked like fun.

Oh yes!!! Rugby is way too fun to watch. Very primal- little to no protective gear. I know a little bit about how it is played, but honestly, I'm enamored over simply watching the men with their "hot rugby man thighs". The parks, especially Delaware park will regular have games/practices. The girls play/practice there too. I'm too chicken to play even though it looks fun and my female friends who play, absolutely love it.

next (e:strip) field trip? ogle the rugby guys is my suggestion :)

rugby is awesome. I played one game, but was too blind to see anything at the time, so i quit.... had lots of fun in practice though.

Rugby is such an awesome game! I didn't know they have a league here?? It looks a LOT LIKE American "football" - except its fun enough that you don't wear guards all across your body everywhere and end up looking like a cartoon action figure. ;-)

Freakin' Beautiful
It is such a beautiful day out as soon as I am done with this part of homework I am going for a bike ride.

You all should do the same.

I basked in the sun on the front porch and fell asleep. It is a beautiful day.

A typo I can never believe in
Oh god.

I understand that we are all human beings and that we make mistakes. There are just some mistakes that are too convenient, too wildly unbelievable to make them authentic.

Hundreds of absentee balots went out for voters in Rensselaer county near Albany. The democratic candidate for president, Barack Osama.

I have seen people make this mistake countless times. It is never someone saying "I rather enjoy the policies of Osama". Rather, it is always someone with an axe to grind about Obama and it is unacceptable.

me angry

that's such bullshit. I hope that person lost their job.

O-M-G!
and i don't say that lightly...
tinypliny - 10/10/08 21:11
Yeah, very unfortunate that a difference of heaven and hell is separated by a mere alphabet. :/
I bet this was a deliberate mistake by a nasty idiot from a zealot county who think Palindronics are "feisty". **Shudder**

Cleveland, here i come!
yippy,

I just found out I will be going to Cleveland next weekend to canvass for Obama. I wish I was able to go to a state where the polls are closer (like Georgia bitches!) but I guess Ohio will do.

I am very excited.
tinypliny - 10/10/08 21:13
YAY!! You would be our frontline field reporter!!!
BTW, you will be here for the party, right?? right???
