ok I'm really tired, so I will edit this post later. Please tune into the blog on Saturday to read the entire thing! I do have some things to say though. First being I don't care I missed last week's post I was more focused on getting packed for Disney than worrying about this. Second being I have enough money to buy Dad's present and my camera! Third is that in band I'm playing Lord of the rings (symphony 1) which is the music based off the book, not the movie. ( the video link is some other band, and the beginning is boring but it gets better as it moves into the hobbits part.) Also I just watched Doctor Who so I'm pretty happy. I'll write more later! Oh and Greg: mom wants you to call home so she can tell you about what's being going on. Very important you make that phone call!!
-Love Liz
p.s. if the link doesn't work just youtube Lord of the Rings Symphony 1. It's the second video.

Phrank's House
I forgot how much I hate posting online. I just wrote this whole long post and then the computer freaked out and deleted everything I wrote. So depressing... Here are some of the highlights
I got an on campus apartment for housing next year. Best place to live on campus!
I started playing KoL again.
I don't remember anything else that I wrote.
Elizabeth missed a post last week, so she must be punished. I think she should have to write a post in iambic pentameter or rhyming couplets at the very minimum.
For some reason, the blog autosaves the draft every minute, which is starting to freak me out b/c my screen gets all screwy for a second.

Anne Is Still MIA!!!!!^_^
So Anne is still at her apartment which is still without any internet connection. She also says that it is lovely. She is also going to need some help moving in, since I am unavailable all weekend. Anne was smart enough to make sure that someone would post in her absence unlike a certain sibling. I convene the Council of Punishments to address this flagrant disregard of the rules by said sibling.

Bill and the Unicorns part1
I first going to post that nothing new and a boring week overall and it has been since last week. So I have decided to write about unicorns, ninjas, and pirates. Why you might ask? To just ramble on for no good reason. So let's start...
Far, Far Away not at the start but that little amount of time which is endless before time is when this story starts. We shall call this part of time "payback".
There once was a unicorn riding around eating hay or chipmunks or what ever they eat, and unless you've seen one eat don't tell me they don't eat chipmunks. This unicorn was called Tracy. Tracy would romp around all day eating but not playing because there are no other unicorns. Prove there are more if you can. So back to romping, Tracy would romp not knowing why it was here or why it was here and diffidently not knowing if it was a girl or boy. Good old Tracy would romp day in and day out spearing chipmunks with its horn, not knowing that it was practicing for the up coming battle from beyond. One day the sky darkened and not in the way the sky gets when it becomes night more like when it rains. So it darkens and soon drops fall from the sky but not just any drops and not drops of love, this was an evil rain and with it came, Ninjas! (add drumbeat here)
The ninjas came from above and soon they started to fight among themselves but soon bands of them came about and formed hunting parties in the forest killing raccoons. Soon after all the raccoons were killed and the pelts set to be tanned and what not, fires sprang up from the ground. Not warm fires, but mean fires that cooked the raccoons for these evil ninjas. This smell was tantalizing for Tracy. Meat that was cooked smells differently from fresh meat that drips from your horn. Tracy had to find out what it was and at any cost.
So ends part one.
This is brought to you be me and for Anne. Payback for having me write and payback to Greg and Frank for not having the balls to tell me to say "no" to this project.

Offints Morrialeg Gutturess!
Last Friday was Teen night at the planetarium on campus. The Planetarium is a huge dome which we project onto. We had 4 screens going. Each one with 4 players on Halo3. You've never really played (for me, get your behind handed to) Halo3 until you've played it on a screen size measured in feet. Scaling of this magnitude isn't an issue. It's a scale by virtue of going through a lens and not a digital zoom. Well, We came up short on games. So, I am the happy owner of three (yes, 3) copies.
I am still reading Persuasive Games, and I have a presentation to give tomorrow. I have to put together a power point another one by the 25th for a China conference. So no short story yet. I'm having a problem getting the story right without writing a novel. I may pick something else and do it later.
Dice-K is pitched against the Yanks last night. He's been on fire so far already this season. Dunkin has a special running. When the Sox win: the next day starting at 11am the next day, if you buy one of their flatbread sandwiches or pizzas, you can get an ice tea or coffee for free. The food just recently got a great review from the Phantom Gourmet... I got the turkey one this weekend, a bit of mustard would have been make it awesome though.
Liz, this link is for you.

Phrank: It's What's For Dinner
Hello siblings, this week has been a bit topsy turvy. A surprise visit home for a dentist appointment on Monday morning kicked off a week which I will call "Slacker". I had class enrollment today, got three out of my four classes, and just waiting to hear from the professor for the fourth class. More on classes when I know exactly what I'm taking. My hair was blue, it's kinda faded into a green/blue/silver/gray color already. At this rate it'll wash out in two weeks. Don't tell mom. I competed in an Iron Chef challenge at the dining hall Wednesday night, which was a lot fun even though I didn't win. Other news, I showed my friends at school Little Mosque on the Prairie and it was a big hit. That said, here's Phrank's creative input for the week: Tracy the Bison!
Tracy is a good friend of mine, for a bison. Tracy has been on all kinds of adventures, sometimes I tag along. There was this one time where Tracy was fighting in a world martial arts tournament with Bruce Lee, Jet Li and Jackie Chan. Tracy is a triple black belt in four different styles, so it was an easy win until Jackie started cracking jokes and Tracy rolled out of the ring laughing. Still, we had a good time, we all went out to Mon Kou/Yong Shing for chicken fingers and powk fwied wice. Then Tracy's cell phone started ringing and he had to go save Superman from kryptonite poisoning. That was a lot of fun with Tracy the Bison.
Siblings! The era of having someone posting for you might be coming to a close! OMG! I was looking at the site updates and there is a new feature being tested out, delayed posting! Essentially, you can write a post and set a time stamp for it, in the future! The blog will wait until the appointed time and post it for you automatically! Magical! I sound like a tech blueprint from Arcanum! Fantastic! So in the wake of the controversy over the last post, perhaps this advent of new technology will prevent the pseudo-posting from ever occurring again! By the way, Elizabeth, how did it feel to post on a Wednesday? I can only imagine what that feels like.
Siblings, secret project 1-5-15 is coming up very soon, e-mail me at skraved@yahoo.com so we can get started on planning this!
New challenge! What does OMG stand for? Best answer gets a prize. My submissions are "Oh man, Greg" and "Oh marvelous, gouda!" Bring it!

Anne's amazing post~
OK, so Anne's apartment doesn't have any internet yet. So Anne has me (liz) to post for her. Which I think is great because now I can redeem myself. I think that her not having wireless up there is good reason not to post. I don't think there will be any controversy over this post. Anne might be home soon but I'm not sure because her roommate is coming soon. OK well tootles have a great day!
