two additional things about today...

...that i'd like to memorialize in this blog:

1. i got a phone call from germany! i've never gotten a phone call from germany before. and this wasn't just any phone call, this was a call from my friend george in germany! awesome! george is doing well, enjoying berlin, starts classes soon, and is gonna celebrate having passed the bar with some champagne, and some good and overpriced american staples: nacho cheese sauce and root beer! yay george!

2. i found a wikipedia entry for one of my favorite things in the world, the spit-take. rad!
