Evening! Igora answered.... seven questions. That took awhile. Other than that I would like to state: Ben Folds in 49 hours. That's all.

Well I'm sure you noticed that we were gone for a bit. I didn't send my domain dues until 3 days before my domain expired, so they were confused. And I know I confused many by not having a website. But it's all good now. I didn't accomplish much since then; I've got a mailbox full of Ask Igora questions beckoning... but I'm afraid the contest idea died considering they are all from the same person. I suppose if you really wanted some pie you could just go visit Perkins, and if you really wanted a date with Jill and Mel you could just ask. But that still leaves me with a mailbox full of questions I have to find the motivation to answer.
Anyway, internet woes aside, it was a decent week. We lost the homecoming game, it was good times anyway. Homecoming was... decent. They only played a few songs I actually enjoyed, but I did get to stick up for Julie's little sister and harass the person who made fun of her. Overall it was interesting. Anyway, other than that nothing has been going on except for preparing for OCT. 2ND! You all know what party we'll be going to then. St. Olaf! Good times.
My mass of a history reading is calling my name, and I better head downstairs before Heidi realizes I'm up here. Oh, and I'm finally getting my camera developed, so there should be a few interesting scans coming up as well. G'bye.

It's been... almost a week. But lots of fun things to say:
First of all, the contest that is the hot topic of the Tagboard... I've decided that whoever submits that most interesting Ask Igora question will either win a date with Mel and Jill (yes, you can be a date whore with both of them, but they must agree to it) or win some tasty pie. By best question I mean the most creative, interesting.... whatever question you can think of. Do me a favor and make a note in the question that you send so that I know that you want to submit that question as a contest question, and I ask that you only submit one for the contest in the hopes of not getting a ton from some really bored person. Anyway, I'm going to cross my fingers and hope a few people actually care enough to submit... that'd be fun. I'll probably give it about a week before I post the questions... and perhaps there will be sort of voting so that other people can help decide what question was the best. Again... I'm crossing my fingers that someone will care about this.
Other than that things have been peachy. I submitted my college application to UWEC last Thursday, went to the West/SPASH game Friday (West lost, suprise!), Camped on Saturday (which involved a fun maze, yay!), put up Homecoming Decorations on Sunday with Becky while really crabby people watched, and promoted Curling today at Parent's night or whatever. So that was my week in a nutshell, aren't I interesting?
Anyway, that's what I have to say. Contest. Goodnight.

Afternoon/Evening. Evening it is. Anyway, I finally got around to updating, so Igora answered her questions. Other than that I've got nothing to worry about but college applications.
Oh, and there's going to be a contest. A date with Jill will be the prize, unless you are an ugly boy or a girl. Then you'll get pie... or something. But we need to figure out what the contest will be. More suggestions needed. G'night.

Evening. I know, I know, Igora has lots of questions... but I'm lazy. Tomorrow, I promise. Anyway, after a fun filled night of West losing the football game and then laughing until I had chest pains, I decided that I must list the most memorable days of this past summer.
1. The Ben Folds concert in June: After a really long drive and wandering around Milwaukee for about an hour, Mel, Becky, Matt and I rocked out to Ben Folds at Summerfest. I'm so glad we made it there after lots of people bailed out (some due to parents, or whatnot... and for other reasons). Very cool, and the Magician was happy too.
2. Fourth of July: Need I say more? It's always memorable.
3. Chris' cabin: What could be better than roaring around on Jet skis with Mel and spending quality time with Chris' 'rents? It's always good fun when you can watch me flail around in the water attempting to waterski or having tubing contests. Good stuff.
4. The 400 Block Rock: I would have to say this was probably the number one night of the entire summer. Not only did we skank our hearts out to The Shifty Seven at the actual concert, we continued the dance party to welcome Kim back from France in the middle of the West parking lot. Smashing soda cans, being really sweaty, and skanking to the music coming from Erik's van in front of crabby French teachers always makes the summer. Trashing Annie's afterwards is also good fun.
5. Curling Camp: Outdoor protests and curling trading cards? Score. Not to mention heated discussions of how West curling could be improved and watching the Olympics in the background. ("Damn Australians always stealing our pastimes.")
6. The Olympics: Come on, only once every 2 years.
7. Rice Lake: Hanging with Mel's small cousins, curling with really good curlers, and wandering around Rice Lake is good stuff. We all curled really well too, it was happy.
If I forgot in especially good events complain on the forum/tagboard. But now I'm tired.

Hello all... Igora's got a bunch of questions to answer but I'm lazy at the moment. They'll be answered later today, hopefully. Anyway, it's been an interesting weekend. Starting with the Log game, anyone who lives in West side should feel cheated, but oh well, no pride for East. After the game we had some fun with Perkins. Saturday I wandered down to the Eau Claire Dells with Matt, and then we went to see his relatives that lived nearby who are building an interesting type of log cabin called cordwood. They had lots of random animals like chickens and tame wild ducks wandering around, it was fun. After that we decided that because I've never watched any of the Star Wars movies, we would watch the trilogy, so we watched Stars Wars and half of the Empire Strikes back last night. Too tired to finish the second one. Watching them makes me sad that they decided to make those stupid new ones.... What is George Lucas doing to himself? For those who don't know George Lucas is the brilliant writer/director who wrote the Indiana Jones movies... Harrison Ford is the hot. Anyway, school in 2 days, that's crap. But now it's church time.
