Back

I'm back from camping at Camp Chief Little Turtle.  It was a Philmont prep outing with the council.  I thought it went really well, except for the stinky weather.  Everyone was really nice!  The last council-sponsored camp I did was with South Bend for the National Jamboree, because all the Anthony Wayne slots were taken.  This time I got a spot with AWAC, though.

We backpacked twelve miles, which wasn't bad.  We had to bypass a lot of flooded parts, though, and I thought we could've moved a little faster.  Plus is was cold and rainy and cold and rainy......... Indiana is such a great place to train for a backpacking trip in New Mexico.  Anywho, we skipped camping Saturday night, because a lot of us had a bunch of homework.  We weren't doing anything but packing up Sunday morning anyway, so the Troop 12 people just cut out.

Here's a Philmont video from YouTube!  I love the burros!

Also, I found out my mom invested in an iPod nano.  I started syncing it before I went out to drag the driveway (again) this morning.  I hopped out for a "bathroom break", and grabbed the nano.  It made it much less boring then.  =)

Alan: What's your specialty?

Dr. Konigsberg: Couples' counseling.  I first saw the client and his wife together.  Since the divorce, I've been working with him alone.

Alan: So they came to you to improve their relationship, and now one wants to kill the other.  Not your best work, was it, doctor?

Judge Brown: Do you know what my mother would call you?  A namby-pamby.  Weak and spineless, bellyaching about some trumped up medical excuse.

4-13

Judge Lang: This is highly unusual, Mr. Shore.  Seeking to discipline a judge for imposing a sentence your client agreed to,

Alan: I suspect we'd all agree to a good beating in order to avoid a prison sentence, but Your Honors, we are not in Singapore.

Don't forget about the Novel Final on Tuesday; it's worth 116 points.  This will probably be your last grade with me.  Please come to the morning review session tomorrow if you can!

This is one of those situations where David convinces family member that making some purchase would benefit them (which is true), and then David "borrows" it for a while.... a long while...  =)
