What’s nasty?
Listening to your co-worker take a nasty dump in the stall next to you.
What’s nastier?
Hearing him walk out of the bathroom without washing his hands.
Remind me never to shake hands with anyone. Ever.
What ever happened to that Jim guy?
I had a shoe blowout this weekend at soccer. I blew a hole in my right shoe about halfway through a game. Now while I generally enjoy buying shoes, buying a new pair of soccer shoes is the biggest chore in the world for me. I think it has to do with the fact that soccer shoes cost me a lot more than I spend on my everyday shoes, so it feels like a much larger purchase, but at the same time I’m terrified of the “break-in” period. I hate those first few games when my shoes aren’t tied quite right or broken in at all and I end up having it fall off at the exact wrong moment. awk. It makes me feel like that idiot who can’t figure out how to tie his shoes. There was a guy like this at the indoor arena last week. I played a game against him on tuesday where he didn’t have his shoes tied well enough and ended up kicking it 20ft away from himself. Thursday his team was playing before my game and sure enough, it happened again. Learn how to tie your shoes buddy! This might be a good start.
Oddly enough, I just stumbled across that website when I thought to myself, “Surely someone has devoted an entire website to lacing shoes.” But damn was I surprised. Holy fuck. A whole world of shoe lacing that I had no idea about. But if you want to be really amazed, check out this link: Monte Fisher. This guy has a patent on a shoe lacing method. That’s right, a U.S. patent.
That’s all for now. No real poker news. Work is busy as hell. Oh yeah, and if anyone has an idea how to take an existing directory structure and adding it to a Microsoft Visual C++ (7.1) project, drop me a line. It’s been killing me for the last few days to have to look at all this source code through windows explorer when I should be able to automatically import it all into MSVC will little trouble.
