will at no cost: Segment 2 →
In a surprising display of strength, Sally the spinning instructor lifted Will from his seat, carried him to the front of the room, and set him down. “William! Posture!” Paralyzed with shock, Will stood hunched over still in riding position. “Since you insist on disrespecting your peers…”… Read the whole story so far at http://willatnocost.tumblr.com

reddogrambling asked: Hey, thanks for the follow. More importantly, congratulations on BD's no. 14. I'm sure it was a ####-ton of hard work, and still an amazing feeling. I'm guessing from the videos you've been posting you were on support staff. My hat's off to ya.

Stay tuned to my tumblr. I'm still slowly trickling photos from Allentown. Haven't even gotten to all the...

I was going to go for a bike ride, but my tires were low… After pumping them up, I am way too tired to go for a bike ride.

Two steps forward and one step back is still net progress.

Hotmail Plus or F**king Genius
Touche Microsoft. I would complain that I just came across a payment taken from my checking account for 19.95 for Microsoft services I haven’t used in well over two years, but after thinking about it I have to take a step back and congratulate whoever came up with this brilliant system of making money. Hotmail Plus. A yearly subscription which I have apparently had since 2005. Like a ninja...

Wow, what a season. There were highs and lows. Lefts and rights. Fronts and backs. Congratulations to all of the amazing members and staff (design, instructional and support). Obviously it was everyone’s hard work and collaboration that made this whole thing happen. And damn, it was special. That being said, I have reason to believe there was even more to it that made this summer so...

Sunday Brunch
I pretty much missed everyone the second I ran out of the hotel to catch my bus. A few minutes later I was asked to run back into the hotel to deliver someone’s backpack. It was like an amazing instant reunion. Then I had to run back to my bus and I missed everyone again. Thank you for an amazing summer 2010 Blue Devils, you are the most special group of people I have ever had the honor to...

“Guess what doesn’t take dollar bills!” Joe said. How can the answer to that question not be “I don’t know, but I know your mom did last night!”?

Wasps
I say to a member of the colorguard, “Calm. Calm. They’re way more likely to sting you if you’re flailing around like that. They’re like sharks of the sky.”

Review: Bit.Trip Core
Bit.Trip Core is a devious little rhythm game. It continues the visual and audio style of Bit.Trip Beat but with a new control scheme, this time implementing the d-pad and 2 button. Although I liked the solid use of motion control in Beat which made it uniquely Wii (for now), the use of buttons in Core adds more to the rhythmic challenge of the game. Normally I would be bummed out that a game...
