Did I already apologize for disappearing for two weeks? If not, then a big “My bad” to all of the lovely people that read Ice Climber. You know how it is sometimes. There’s no theme to this page, nothing perpetual or consistent to fall back on for material. Since the posts [...]

Check It Out
May 31, 2005Still Here
May 30, 2005Just having serious mental block lately. Which is alarming, considering this blog isn’t exactly the New York Times. In any event, I’ll get something up here soon.
Dusty Lake Trip
May 16, 2005The Dusty Lake field trip wasn’t nearly as fun as our class’ first two field trips to Olympic National Park and San Juan Island. Desert environment, a ton of mosquitoes and a ton of ants. No cabin this time; everyone pitched a tent outside in the brush minutes after we arrived at the campsite. [...]
Future Journalists of America
May 12, 2005Another weekend, another field trip.
Tomorrow the class is headed out to the aptly-named Dusty Lake. It reminds me of something of the Grand Canyon although I’ve never been to either place. The power of photography, man. We’ll be camping for real this time; the 6-7 adult family tent will accompany me tomorrow. It’s much too [...]
3 Wonders
May 6, 2005There must some way to snazz up my webpage so that visitors can be satiated when I don’t post for, like, two weeks. I oughta start by replacing that hit counter. The CoolCounters thing seemed like a good idea because there were some cute images, it gave interesting information like search terms (more [...]
Celebration 2005
May 5, 2005My boss at the ECC has been out sick all week so he tapped me to take his place at Celebration 2005, an awards banquet for EOP students here at UW. It was a pretty hoity-toity affair with the president of the school in attendance and hundreds of university staff wearing suits, waiters serving wine [...]
One More New Link
May 4, 2005I’ve been reading Women’s Hoops Blog for several weeks now and it is, most definitely, the most insightful, well-referenced and informative basketball site this (non-corporate) side of ESPN.com. The focus is on women’s college basketball and, now that it’s nearly summer, the WNBA, but the topics covered often address men’s leagues and there’s a bit [...]
Links
May 4, 2005Changed some links again. Got rid of that Listen, Lady… link because that blog hasn’t been too interesting lately, in my opinion (look who’s talking). That site did introduce me to Questionable Content, however, which EVERYONE should be reading because it’s fucking awesome.
I changed the Sprizee link because it has been broken for some [...]
UITC – That’s What I’m Talkin’ About!
May 3, 2005Last year, when WhatUpThen was holed up in his apartment learning the basics of epidemiology, the College Republicans of the University of Washington threw one of those Affirmative Action Bake Sales that have become increasingly popular at schools across the country. I hate linking to FOX News, but it has the blurbs about the different [...]
Starter (B)log
May 2, 2005If you visit this page regularly you know that I have a TON of blogging to do. Cramming the last two weeks into a single, gigantic superpost crossed my mind last night, but there was homework to finish, that new episode of Family Guy to watch and, later, my first visitor to Seattle. By the [...]
