Staying in the loop
Since graduating and moving to California, I've regrettably done a horrible job of keeping up with Cornell athletics. But no more! ESPN's Cornell RSS feed to the rescue! So the next time Yale runs up 50+ points on my Big Red gridders, I will know, dammit.
And would you believe, according to Bloglines, I'm the only subscriber? Shocking.

WTF is BTHE?
It's a little silly and embarrassing, but my greatest accomplishment this weekend was finally locating a certain mp3 which I've been searching for off-and-on for a while now. You see, the Energy plays this remix of Kelly Clarkson's "Behind These Hazel Eyes" that I enjoy quite a bit, in spite of myself. It was hard to locate, given the preponderance of horrible dance remixes that reproduce geometrically on youtube and elsewhere. And Energy's website is strangely silent - their online playlist just links you to the album version of the song. I even went so far as to ask their programming director via email. I never got a response, which I find baffling. They've had the same thirty songs on "shuffle" for three years; what the heck is the programming director doing all day if not playing Freecell answering dudes' emails?
Anyhow, after some serious hunting I eventually found it this morning. The secret was to ask the search engines not for the song's title, but for the acronym "BTHE", which is apparently what the kids are calling it these days. So thank you, Kelly Clarkson Express Media vault, for brining me the BTHE MYNT REMIX (Radio Rip).
In other news, I made a boatload of gnocci this weekend and used the ensuing food coma to take advantage of my friends in poker. We neglected to photo the final product, but there's an amusing picture of me ricing potatoes after the cut.
I'm wondering now... if I had named that image file "ricin.jpg", would I have wound up on some FBI watch list?

Bridge Complete
A detailed blog update is long overdue, but now is not the time. To tide you over, though, I'll just mention that today Marie and I, for the first time, drove over the Benicia-Martinez Bridge, finally completing for us the suite of Bay Area toll bridges.
Ahh, closure.
