File Under: My shoulders are pissed
Today I participated in the Aroostook River Kayak and Canoe Race. It was a slightly nicer day to paddle this year. The wind was gone, it was warmer and it only rained for the second half of the race. The crowd was smaller than last year, but just as enthusiastic. I started off well, passing a couple of the paddlers in front of me, but my shoulders started speaking up about 30 minutes down river. I must say I'm happy to have finished with a time of 1:22.16. I believe I finished well over 1:30 last year, something like 1:38, maybe? Which mean I may have improved my time by as much as 16 minutes. For me that is something to be happy about.
Matt finished in 1:16 and I think he would have been faster if he had a better kayak.
All in all, it was a good time, now I gotta rest my shoulders so they don't get too pissy.

File Under: MNIE Cancelled
In a move that proves they are headed to the bottom of the pile, NBC cancelled My Name is Earl yesterday. This marks the beginning of the end for smartly written comedies. Reality TV, Hospital and Cop dramas are all that will be left. Blurg! There is an effort afoot to save the show, so support Karma through this "Twitition."

File Under: Play for science
I found this in last month's Wired. Apparently, by playing this game, you may be assisting science. In my book, that's pretty effin cool.

File Under: It seems I forgot
I thought I had posted the winning name for the balloon, I must have twittered it and forgotten to share here. The winner was Blues Breaker, which is just fine by me. :)

"With The 'Gay Tax,' Love Doesn't Come Cheap" by Nancy Goldstein
If you want to know why I support homosexual marriages, it's quite simple. I can't look another human being in the eye and tell them that their love mean less than mine or that their heart aches any less when their love is gone. I just can't do it, therefore they should have the same rights regarding that love and heartache as me.
