  1. I've had it-rant

    by , 09-30-2009 at 03:42 PM (Greybeard's Brain Blog)
    I just finished wrapping up the rest of my office and it is sitting around me in boxes and bubble wrap. I am the original measure once cut twice guy. I underestimated what I needed and it was like a trip to Home Depot. Good thing the box store is right across the street. If it ain't a three tripper...

    I am still waiting for the paperwork from my doctor so I can go out on disability. Because if I don't officers, C level and down to a certain level of manager are getting permanent ...

  2. black cards and tournament lessons

    by , 09-30-2009 at 03:12 PM
    Ahren called me yesterday to say that he has viewed and re-viewed the video of the gold medal bout, and he came to two conclusions:

    1. He should have gotten himself black-carded when the referee annulled my touch due to the audience distraction. After the break, and during that touch, I was clearly focused again and moving correctly, even though beforehand I was sleepwalking. After the referee annulled my touch, I was done. I've won bouts in which I started that far behind.

  4. Not just faster and stronger

    by , 09-29-2009 at 02:33 PM
    It was said about Golubitsky (i think) that he was different from many other elite fencers, because he was not only faster and stronger than the competition, but fundamentally understood the game differently. Hmm. I don't know if that's important... if you can win by just being faster and stronger than other people, why not? Well, for me there's something puristically appealing about winning because you have something entirely different, not because you had the enhanced version of the same old attributes. ...

    Here I go again.

    It's almost a 4 hour drive to South Bend, IN and I simply cannot drive that distance without caffeine. Not safely, anyway.

    I tied for third out of 8. Not great but not terrible and it was good practice on a Sunday.
