had another fun weekend that extended into monday...friday - was supposed to go to sap's birthday party, but she bailed as everyone else bailed on her...and hema and i had a "misunderstanding" and so i spend friday nite workin' out and makin myself an omelet dinner...yippee...things picked up on saturday though...went down to the airport to a shooting range...tried my hand at some skeet shooting...it was a lota fun...the guy said i was really good...cuz i got 4/5 on my first try...and i also got the double shots pretty well....of course i imputed it to my room-mate shawn's wise training...ha...tell ya what - its kinda freaky holding a shot gun and knowing what its capable of...thats a pipe of power...ha...then saturday evening went to sap's birthday party to milan...don't like the place...after that nite i surely don't like the place...the guys put pepperoni in my calzone...and then when i told him to take it back he insisted it was sun-dried tomatoes not pepperoni...so i had to fish out a circular disk of meat and wave it in front of him...geeze...everyone else liked it though...sunday went to swadhyay...which was cool as they talked about the origins of the caste system as a model of efficiency and not status...marxism in a way...i agreed with some points, but disagreed with the basic philosophy that you set up what someone does for life right when they are born...wow...finally sunday afternoon went and played whirlyball for the first time...that was crazy! i love that game....and then sunday nite just went to barnes and noble with mom to plan the upcoming trip across the pond...
monday was the best though...went to chastain...again...this time i saw elvis costello...ha! i don't think i know a single song by him...but i enjoyed myself...nice catered dinner...sat down in the pit of the amphitheater....he had Alan Tuscon (sp?) and Band...they stole the show...especially Big Sam on the trombone....that guy screams N'Orleans!!! so for all the jump and jive stuff i was off my seat and swayin' having fun...then elvis brings out this little G Bush doll and calls it a presidential action figure...then continues to poke fun of the president by saying that it was "actual size" and uncommon to the world of action figures, this one actually does "nothing" and that he affectionately calls it "Junior"...haha...then proceeds to play a song called Broken Promiseland or something...
thats about it...went to federal court this morning for a hearing in a Coke v. Pepsi matter - that was interesting...and now back at work pondering about ethics laws in NY and GA...laterz.
