Trail mix is a good excuse to eat candy. If someone sees you eating handful after handful of M&M's then they will think,"What a fatty." If they see you eating handful after handful of trailmix (even though there are lots of M&M's in it) they will think, "Wow. He is so fit that he needs to eat trailmix just to keep up with his body’s high demand for energy."

Oh and has anyone seen this? http://blog.wired.com/teslacar/ That car company is literally down the block from my toy company. I think that is pretty cool.

currently eating: Trailmix

Times are good.

I woke up this morning and watched two episodes of Saved by the Bell the College years.

So this is my last post from Scotland. I'm coming home! (on Sunday)

By the way I've been reading this good book. Don't You Have Time to Think? by Richard Feynman. It's just a bunch of his letters and letters to him. I'm liking it. I would suggest you read it too, but I looked it up on amazon.com and I couldn't find it. It's the first search result for richard feynman on amazon.co.uk though. It seems that it is only released in the UK. It'll be a limited edition book in the US. I wonder if I can sell it for lot's and lot's of money? I'm going to be rich!

One more day of work left look at this cool google page:

zoom in all the way.

I'm posting because I want to remember these links when I go back to America.
Bubble Bobble Revolution
Bubble Bobble: Old and New

Has anyone every played bubble-bobble? You jut blow bubbles. Enemies get trapped in them. And then you pop them. I guess the sudden change in pressure causes them to sublimate into a gas. There are also these magic umbrellas and fruit loops and necklaces and Hermes' Shoes, and princesses and 100+ levels (200+ if you mess up on level 100). It is perhaps the second greatest game after ICO. Here is my list of top games:

1)ICO (PS2)
2)Bubble Bobble (NES)
3)Zelda Ocarnia of Time (N64)
4) some space racing game on the NES that I rented once but could never find again. Your hover ship could jump and shoot. I liked jumping over corners.
5)Metal Gear Solid (PS)
6)Vector Man (Sega)
honorable mention: Mario 64, X-men (sega), Turtles in Time (on arcade machine outside of the basketball gym my games were at. I only got to play it a couple times.)

Least favorite games:
0908834122) Final Fantasy tactics - I hate moving by squares.
9098834123) Qbert - this happens to be another game you move by squares ("wigga-wigga" is that the sound they makes Peter?)


Soon I hope Shadow of the Colossus will join the list. It's by the same people who did ICO. If it's 1/200th as good as ICO then it still will be better than most games (even Walo and Walo2)


I also wanted to thank everyone for their response to my grad school dilemma. You all had good advice. I've already started contacting certain people in the program etc. I'm sure whatever I do things will turn out good. For example, if I don't get drafted by the NBA as Oliver suggested, there is always the European Football League.

I'll be home in a week!
