Here's a favorite quote of mine from Tropic of Cancer p.99, "I have found God, but he is insufficient. I am only spiritually dead. Physically I am alive. Morally I am free. The world which i have departed is a menagerie. The dawn is breaking on a new world, a jungle world in which the lean spirits roam with sharp claws. If I am a hyena I am a lean and hungry one: I go forth to fatten myself."

I'm going to start writing "kittyisms". Kitty is my housemate, she's originally from Hong Kong and has spent a good portion of her life in Canada, but still makes a few funny mistakes with idioms.
Kittyism for the day: "I'll be back in a gypsy." (I'll be back in a jiffy)
Update on Montreal: An amazing time. We stayed downtown at a "friend of a friend's" house; he was a super host. There was a thunderous fireworks display on saturday night that set off car alarms throughout the city.
We battle the pink colored team in frisbee tonight. They're supposedly ranked 3rd (to our 6th), but I don't see them giving us too much trouble - we're steamrolling the entire tier! Well, we'll see anyway.

To Montreal. To toss disc for the weekend in the tourney "As You Like It". Co-ed teams are WAY more fun.
More good news: Will be getting library job back come september, except the wage is now $19 / hr. (for sure this time!) At 12.5 hours a week that's a cool grand per month, which means radioshack can go to HELL baby!... but not just yet:)
Found analytical solution to my exact thesis problem and FEM solution is now jiving! This is good.
Plus, my ultimate team in kingston is sooo much fun this year. We're 7-1, have beaten almost all the teams in the league and we're currently itching to steal 2nd place overall (out of 12 teams). The neatest thing is most of the players are beginners, so individually we're not much, but as a group and using my "junk" defense strategy we're unstoppable. Good times.

Shit, haven't written in a bit. Well, I think cam is in town (for all those who know cam). He's been offline for a while and i got a random "Hi"/"Bye" message on the phone - which means he's close:) probably within a 200 Km radius.
Hey T3 was ENTERTAINING! far exceeded what i thought it would be. The chick terminator doesn't talk, what a good descision by the director!
Been sailing off and on these past couple weeks, on a Kirby 30'. It's a rather fat boat, but still fast. A couple interesting rig differences, like "tweakers" for guiding the guy and sheet for the kite and it's also got "running backs", extra shrouds that have to be tightened everytime one tacks.... kind of annoying. One thing I'm learning is that Ktown's got wind! We blew a jib halyard out last race.
If I had a drink I'd raise it up to LONG summer days, sweet ultimate fields and skimpy summer wear.
