Summer League
First Portland Ultimate summer league game tonight for Pizza Villa. Apparently they’ve been wondering if I’ve existed since the second week of the summer. Hopefully I can show up and fulfill their expectations in at least the height department.
UPDATE: we won. track progress here.

Nutz in Africa
Nutz and family went to africa and they took some unbelievable photos. Check them out here on the recently entirely Nutz-dominated Costa site.
Why I’m Home
New Zealand got old for me–mostly because of the absence of reality television and misadvertised sales tax. I’m serious; two observations:
-one, when a store advertises one price for gatorade, then charges you another, this is very surprising.
-two, MTV now has a show called Date My Mom. This is by far the greatest show ever devised. At the end, there’s a shot where the guy, the girl, and the mother are running along the beach in slow-mo. Just when you think MTV is going to rewrite the rules of expected family behavior, then mum stops and waves her christian daughter on with this pretty boy the mother wants to date herself. It’s seriously the best thing I’ve ever seen.
