Geochaching

If you have ever wanted to be a pirate... or a boyscout... then I would recomend geocaching. Apparently it's kinda nerdy but very fun. If you haven't heard of it just go to http://www.geocaching.com/. Basically you just use your GPS to find "treasure" (aka crap) in the woods. Sometimes if your the FTF or First To Find you get an extra little gift.

Quick word to the wise... if you want to create your own cache to be hunted by others make sure you read all the directions first. Other wise you end up hiding an Excedrin bottle full of paper and Chinese money under a brick in Roanoke Rapids North Carolina for no reason. I'm just saying... rhetorically...

Shenanigans

Shenanigans. Have you ever said something like... "I'm so hungry I could eat an elephant" or "I'm so mad I could just kick myself"? Well, if you and your buddies decide to play shenanigans you should be a lot more careful about the things you say. If you say something absurd and your friend calls "Shenanigans" on you then your immediately left with two choices actually doing the thing you said you would do OR your friend gets to punch you as hard as they want. Hmmmm... decisions decisions. (I'm not really sure why all these games involve punching).

Mike the RA

Well Mike's dream has finally come true. He get's to live in the dorms and be married to me at the same time. He is one lucky man. For those of you that don't know, Mike loved dorm life. In college he spent all four years dedicated to Friley as an RA. The first night we got to our new housing assignment he was like a little kid in the candy store. He immediately informed me that we were going to town ASAP to get some "door-decs" so we went out and bought a white board and put our names on the door. He was particularly excited about the potential to play "hall sports" which the ISU Department of Residence frowns upon. After a our dorm was ravaged by savage TP-ers Mike sprang to action and began a campaign to get himself elected as the RA. The hearts of his fellow residents were won over by his eloquent speeches and charismatic personality resulting in a landslide victory! (perhaps this was also due to the fact that he had no opponents)



Those hooligans!!
