We stayed for 10 and a half innings. The Beavers lost 3 to 2 in the 14th… that’s one hell of a long game. I’m glad we left “early”!

Older, not too sure about the wiser part.

BEAVERS WIN! 50 to 21.
A shot of the field as I was exiting the stadium. I did manage to find my way into section 31 for the game :) (2 sections over to the right from where i was standing here)


Look at that score! :)

Rushing the field!

Today was interesting… I woke up late and I think i’m getting a cold now. I ended up fixing someones computer for the second time this break. At least I’m gonna get paid for it and it’ll go to paying off the fee for breaking contract with ATT early. :) Time == Money hehe

I got my new phone earlier this afternoon… I called T-mobile to have my ATT number switched over to their system… dude, it’s gonna take upto 14 days to have the switch over complete – I’ll be paying for two phones for awhile! :-p

Wow! Winter break is almost over… i can’t believe it!

Scared the living sh*t out of me! I had an on/off switch installed on my tank about two/three weeks ago now this happens. God damn it! The only place where i can get this fixed (”locally”) is in Eugene. Shit.

Anyway… the break down:

The pin valve on a CO2 tank keeps the compressed CO2 in the tank. There is a safety mechanism on the side of the valve that will explode in the event that the tank is over pressurized or if something goes wrong with the valve. If the safety goes off, the CO2 is released from the tank at high velocity and the tank becomes REALLY REALLY FREAKIN COLD!!! -

Tonight… well, it looks like it just went wrong, cuz that tank was only half full!!!

End results:
CO2 filled my brothers room… wow, i got light headed entering
the tank tipped over and froze my brothers desk
the tank needs to have the pin valve replaced
the tank needs to be rehydrotested (re-certified for use)

Cost to replace: $19.99
Location: Eugene, OR
Drive time: 1 hour, 5 minutes each way

shit.
