Late-night ramblings
What would you do if, in Googling for one of your professors (because it's late at night and people do such things, that's why), you find out something horribly embarrassing about him? It isn't a secret, because it's there -- but I'm guessing no one else would plough through five pages of searches, if they even bother to Google. It's almost too hilarious to keep to myself. Dude, these are the kinds of things you use pseudonyms for!

How did I even enjoy watching The Matrix? I suppose that having watched the entire trilogy and having foreknowledge of how lame the whole thing turned out to be makes watching the first instalment a lot less fun.
So The Oracle lied to Neo? Yes, I know, if she hadn't, he wouldn't have gone back to save Morpheus. The ends justify the means, you say? Isn't the whole point about the matrix is that it is a big fat evil lie? But it's okay for The Oracle to lie. Okay.
What am I doing? I refuse to allow myself to be sucked back into this.

More quips from Dr. T:
"I have a sore throat today, so instead of my deep sexy voice, you're going to get Rod Stewart."
"I sleep five hours a day. I hear lions sleep 20 hours. That's quality of life!"
"[Working like a machine] is not what humans are made for. That's like asking a bear -- who just wants to sit by the stream and eat salmon sashimi all day -- to wear a mini skirt, ride a bicycle, and carry an umbrella. Or asking a lion to jump through hoops of fire. Why on earth would he want to do that? He wants to sleep for 20 hours!"
"Training involves sacrifice. Of course, this is not always the case. If you get a high from attending sociology lectures, then it's intrinsically rewarding."

Greensleeves. I knew the snow globe was given by Luka, but I just remembered something about the song. I think Luka mentioned it before. Something about Croatia. But obviously Abby doesn't remember -- she hasn't even figured out the snow globe.
Losing Carol, and then Abby; I wonder if Luka will ever love again.

Would you believe the crazy people at Switchfoot (from whence the title of this blog came) made iPod tattoos?! ;)
They just finished touring Australia. My sister made me insanely jealous by taking photos with Jon Foreman. JON! FORE! MAN!
