So I finally popped my Husson Outdoors Club cherry this weekend and ascended Katahdin, in one fell swoop.
I’ve been a “member” of the HOC by proxy for about a year now. About this time last year I went on my first Thursday Night Climb at UMO, where I met Christine and Spenser. Now, practically all of Jen and I’s mutual friends are HOC members. I never attend meetings, and until now, I never participated in any HOC events, besides Thursday Night Climb.
I found out I was going on the Katahdin trip on Tuesday evening, when Jen told me there was a hike the coming weekend, and she had signed me up.
This is usually where I say something like “I was skeptical at first…” but I wasn’t. Right from the get-go I knew it would be a great trip, and it was.
We left late Friday afternoon, Continue reading ‘Katahdin Trip 2007′
So, since I managed to destroy one of my two dance pads, I decided it was time to get looking for a replacement. Being the only place I knew of to get $6 dance pads, I headed back over to the Kraft Brands Active Gaming website.
Oddly, the game pad page is still up but the order form is MIA. Saddly, after an spending an hour with customer support, I am still kraft-paddless… If anyone out there has one of these things they want to junk, send it my way. I’ll even pay shipping and handling. 
So, yeah. Third week into school and we’re still alive. That’s some thing to be proud of, right?
All the incoming students came in on the first, which was an image straight out of hell if there ever was one. Figure, there are 9 floors, 37 students per floor, with an average of 10 of them being incoming students. Thats not to say that only incoming students came in on the first either… That said, about 130 students arrived in Bell Hall (thats right, I’m only talking about one of three dorms) from 7am to about 11am on the first of September. Now, consider that each student is traditionally accompanied by Mom and Dad and you have tripled the foot traffic. Add another 80 or so for the odd brother, sister, aunt or uncle, and your looking at 400 pairs of feet, accounting for over 1000 trips trough the lobby, and nearly 45 personal attempts at suicide. Per RA. (in case you didn’t get that, that was a joke)
Moving on.

Laughing Squid featured this site the other day, and so happy I am they did! This is what we need! Sex education that isn’t boring as hell. “Sex Edutainment” if you will, although they claim it’s not real “sex education” in the traditional sense, and that “the formal education [will be left] to classrooms and textbooks.” It’s a shame really, as all those oh-so-important statistics will still be falling on napping ears int he classroom…
The girls over at the Midwest Teen Sex Show have struck gold, and I hope they keep going. Click below for their latest episode, and surf on over if you want more. Which you will.

When you think about it, it sure bests the alternative…
