1.7 seconds of fame
Merry Christmas, or for our readers en espagnol, Feliz Navidad, or for our reader(s) in Slovenia, Happy Snowy Day Awesome Tree. Speaking of snow (hello segue), it snowed while we were opening presents yesterday, which was nice. Then it turned into sleet and rain, which wasn't nice.
Good loot this year. Socks, a tie and other assorted clothes were great, especially a Pac-Man shirt. Got the new Phish CD, Round Room, and Andrew got the new Ben Folds live album (make sure to ask Andrew what quality piece of cinematic magic I gave him). We were watching the Ben Folds DVD features and Army's crowd participation with the horns is great. Tiny Dancer doesn't disappoint either with an Elton John impression.

Jasmine gave me her Nintendo Gamecube with Super Mario Sunshine and Animal Crossing (yeah, that's a pretty big present, but we evened things out). Both are great games and I'm sure that I'll have more about each in the near future. Mario's "blooper surfing" has become a new treasured pastime at this house (I'm lying, but it's close). I moved into Jaz's Animal Crossing town and caught a lot of fish.
CNN did a special on Teach For America last night and one of the featured teachers was Mike Garcia from Baltimore. I was in a few of the early New York auditorium crowd scenes and was seen walking out of the building with Nick, on air for about 1.7 seconds. The B'more crew was well represented; they showed our institute "dance" and graduate classes at JHU. It will be on again at 10pm EST on New Year's Day.
