Mass Erect
I don't know if any of you have played mass effect yet, but I figured all of you would get a good kick out of this:
For a REAL review I suggest Zero Punctuation - definitely worth watching if you haven't seen any of his reviews yet.

free xbox live game
Just a heads up: because of all the live downtime, apparently MS is giving a free xbox game... you don't get to choose the game, and you have to download between next wednesday afternoon and sunday.

NerdBowl 07 Wrap-up
I wanted to thank everybody who participated in the NerdBowl this year. It was a tough year for some but great for others; a year of upsets and surprises.
Coming in 1st place.... Evil E!
She didn't seem to have too great of a handle on who the hell she was picking at first, but once she got going she kept up a good team that was strong enough to take the win. Her star performer might have to be Adrian Peterson, the very last pick in the draft who turned out to be a week-winner when healthy.
2nd place... Rox the Sox
The stranger from another land met with bad luck in the start. Despite consistently being a contender for the 2nd most points, she had a knack of losing high-scoring affairs. However, she persevered and blasted by the commish with confidence to make the battle for first a high-octane, high-estrogen affair.
3rd place... Commissioner Jib
Early on I appeared to be unstoppable, losing my first game with Cooley's bye and then my next with Brady's bye, but the magic of those two couldn't keep me invincible forever. I maintained the longest winning streak during the season but slipped to second place in the last week and fell in the first round of the playoffs.
4th place... The Bastards
Notable for their amazing comeback at the end of the season. Going into week 10 The Bastards were in dead last without any hint of coming back but then staged a miraculous playoff drive that netted them a berth on week 15.
Honorable Mention... Red Devils
I don't know what happened to Red but his team just tanked on him. He went from battling for third to not even making the playoffs and then losing to Fisher's unmanned ship of a team in the consolation playoffs. In fact, yahoo doesn't even register Red as finishing the season in 6th place, he just falls off the chart.
Dishonorable Mention... Fisher's Favorites
Somewhere throughout the season we seem to have lost Fisher. At least, I hope so, because I don't know who would consistently play a team stocked with injured players and players on bye. Despite this, however, he still managed to beat Red...
See you all next year in NerdBowl '08!!!1!w00t!!pwn!!1!

We have a NEW date!
Not certain everyone got the save the date emails so I will post it here too. Kristen and I will be getting married on August 8th 1st, 2008 in Seattle Washington. Laith posting plans for 2008 made me realize I need to let everyone know to block that weekend out.
2008 Vacation & Day off Plans
Happy New Year Everyone!!!
I dont know if people are still checking this thing, but I thought I would throw up some ideas for 2008. Maybe you dont know, but UPS really pushes us to schedule these things early, just trying to get a head start
- April 25-27 Coachella Music Festival
www.coachella.com
Pretty sure Hawkins is going, as am I.
We were talking about an RV last year from LA, but I am probably carpool down, then camp there. I will be buying several tickets as extras if anyone is interested
- Summertime Cruise - June - Aug?
Cancun?
Red and I were talking about going to Mexico while we were in Tahoe
Moody is also interested
Extended Weekend would work best
- Pangea Day, Stanford University
May 10th
http://www.pangeaday.org/
If we get a big group we can hit up a pretty crazy sake place in Palo Alto afterward
http://www.jatbar.com/reviews/Palo_Alto/Miyake.asp
- Las Vegas?
I may not be able to do more then two $$ trips as I am trying to buy a place this year. I thought it would be at least worth posting for the Scarab.
- Tahoe Cabin
Had a blast last time with Red, Elise, and Jib. This should really happen again if possible.
Feel free to post comments, or maybe we can setup the gmail file that Hawkins had going last year and all vote and comment in a single place.
