called dad- didn't answer
called grandparents and they were on their way out, but for reasons known only to me, i decided to wait for them in my car, instead of going back into the college

and with how these things work, right as they are pulling in, i try my car, and it starts

then i proceed to fill up the tank, and now here i am half-frozen

i think it will take my days to feel properly warm again, its warmed up o -5 though :roll:


Dude, I'm sorry. Remember your team lives in more hospitable weather. You might have to some see a game and stay.

Tony, I'm feeling your advice about living life once. I'm in a screwed up situation right now with my girl, so we'll see how things turn out.

And for the person who said being in -32 F was cold... Try -56 F.

During one point of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada weathers.. sometime in late January, February, there's a time when it averages out to about -47 degrees Celsius with the windchill. That would be about -52.6 F.

Yeah, living here SUCKS.

More like the trade winds BLOW.

But a good give and go with your girl should seal the deal.

Anyways dude, I'm leaving ny today after I drop by the NBA store. Ill hit you up next time I'm in the city.



OH SNAP i got an iphone a few months ago...that's what I carry with me, I totally forgot you had my old number. Sorry man, I'm an idiot!

What did you end up doing? I watched the UFC fight at a bar with a couple dudes then went out for a bit afterwards.

Sorry bro!


Well me and some friends hit up a place called Buddha Bar on W 12th and 9th. The music was sorta lame so we headed out to this place afterwards called Elevate (forgot where it was cause i was slightly intoxicated). Anyways, one of the girls i was with bartends there so we were just getting hooked up with free shots and stuf all night. Club itself was ok i guess (had some skanky lookin go-go girls on the plus side). My friend (the one that bartends there) got really messed up so we left around 3am and then I just went back home. Nothing too crazy.

Funny story, I think I may have offended quite a few people during my Cornell/Columbia interview. They asked me for someone I admire or consider a hero, outside of my family or the field of medicine. I of course picked kobe Bryant. Haha. There was a female doctor on the panel of interviewers that just dropped her jaw and I spent like a solid 10 minutes defending my decision against all the interviewers. Not sure if it was hte smartest move, but oh well. Geez, the things i go through for my love of the lakers. :-?

On the bright side, you don't have 500 ongoing subpoenas and camera/mics following you everywhere you go.


So bro, are you back home in Cal-a for-ni-a? (excuse my ebono-phonics)

My buddy from college became the head of life support at arctic research base. He told me christmas day was -125. ??? that is the suck.

if you work up there you can't have had even a single cavity or problem with your teeth. I guess they would shatter if there were any cracks or metal.

Damn Tyler, -47 celsius is really cold. The coldest weather I've been in was -40, as a mailman christmas-extra when I was 17. I've once skied downhill in a -37 celsius storm which could maybe be compared to -47, but that is really freaking bone chilling cold, quite literally. Stay inside, Tyler. :lol: -125 degrees F, DD?! I can't even imagine what that could be like.

^ A worthy exit, indicative of his accomplishments as a "decider". A clear message sent in a language that even this cretin of a president cannot fail to understand. Mission accomplished.

I hear you, man. It's been -43 F the past couple of days. Starting to warm up a little again now. But yeah, come January there will be a week of about -50 F.

Tony, EE it's funny hearing advice like that, because I know you guys are right but I just can't do it, lol. I've never had a girlfriend - never even kissed a girl to be honest. I guess that's the negative of being an actual brown boy born over here, lol.

SK, that is a prime gif. I've seen it so many times now but I still laugh my ass off everytime. Haha, that little smirk is priceless.

that guy throwing the shoe messed up big time, why not have both shoes in your hand to begin with?
not throw one, pick the other up, that gave Bush time

and he would have hit him if he threw it 10 seconds earlier when he wasn't looking

For those of you young cats that think it has mostly to do with your appearance, it usually has very little to do with it. At least from what I've seen. In a recent and huge poll, humor was voted American women's number one turn-on. NPR reported it as a fact. I'm not saying looks don't matter at all, but it's really nothing but a smaller ingredient, if you ask women. The best womanizers (that I've met) aren't usually lookers. They're often the last guy you would expect, judging by appearance. Every single one of them is a funny guy. They know how to make girls smile, giggle and laugh, and they're completely at ease about talking and joking about anything. A jock couldn't as easily be that forward because the girls would be more guarded with him. All good looking girls need a wild guy to blame for making them do bad things. Again, girls just want to have fun. Prove me wrong.
