August flies

As August passes by, the flies and mosquitos come to Baltic Avenue to fly around the house. Occasionally, if I'm fast enough, I can squash a fly and eat it like it was nothing. Some people will find it gross, but the concept of entomophagy is an interesting study, because insects were a source of food for humans before the domestication of cattle, chickens, pigs, sheep, goats, and so on, diversified man's protein intake from animal sources.

Some of my friends have been interviewing me because I won the first prize at the Beach Pride program. Personally, I find it to be an honor, and the symbol of my dedication to The Beach™, and I even wrote a few articles for the Daily 49er today. I don't want to make writing for the Union Weekly's rival a habit though!

<(>w<)/

The summer sessions hit the climax, and I have a presentation, a portfolio, and a final all on the same Thursday. It's pure bedlam here at The Beach™. I guess I'll have to hit the books. But I gotta wait for my laptop battery to finish charging.


One More Moment for the Master

If Alan Knipe is not on the hot seat yet next year, he should be on it right now. I will put him among coaches who do not know how to win big games. I believe that a coach who doesn’t know how to win big games is just as good as a coach who just doesn’t know how to win, PERIOD.

Turkey def. United States 25-21, 28-26, 39-37.

I expect those fucking Italians to run it up our posteriors. This has been a long, long, LOOOONG campaign for us. Take us out of our misery, Azzurri!

Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, a man by the name of David Beckham scored his first goal with the Los Angeles Galaxy. It was a mere demonstration of the bending shot. One More Moment for the Master was the name of the set piece. The student, goalkeeper Troy Perkins of DC United, wasn’t keen on letting the Master beat him twice, but DC United lost anyway, 2-0.

Speaking of being beat twice…they say that it is difficult for a team to beat a good team twice. If we finish the deal off against Pachuca, we will have done that. Prepare yourselves, Tuzos!
