WASHINGTON, DC, USA Click here for the Geography Bee mini-test. Every year, to coincide with the National Geography Bee, National Geographic’s website posts a mini Geography test. Every year, I miss a couple that I shouldn’t. And every year, I try to post the link here. Give it a try! It only takes about two [...]

WASHINGTON, DC, USA I can’t believe it’s only midnight. It feels so much later. I guess that’s because I got up at 5:30 this morning to clear a clogged toilet and make my weekly 4-hour commute. Since I feel like I have all this extra time at my disposal (I usually go to sleep [...]

Last night, I was sitting here at the computer and I had a brainstorm! I had an idea for a viral picture that could take the internet by storm! Alas, a quick google search revealed that someone had thought of it before me. Nevertheless, I present you with Schrödinger’s lolcat: (Had I thought of [...]

Back from Boston, safe and sound. I’ll have more posts coming up soon (later today and/or this week), such as a general update on my grandmom after 9 months and a trip report of my visit to FENWAY PAHK! But for now, I just wanted to post a link that my mom just sent me. [...]

Stratford, NJ, USA I haven’t posted that much in the past week. Part of it might be laziness, but I really don’t have all that much to say anyway. Well, let me re-phrase that. I haven’t come up with many ideas to write about. Maryland Macaca, however, has. I mean, she has come up with [...]

Stratford, NJ, USA In my last post, I talked about how our local NBC affiliate wasted FAR too much time on a story about how one of its own reporters sought revenge on a guy who fondled her panties. Well, our ABC affiliate wasn’t about to be out-done! The next day, Philadelphia’s 11pm newscast on 6ABC [...]

I found this blog earlier today, and it’s REALLY cool for anyone interested in political/human geography (ME!) and/or cartography (me, to a lesser extent). Strange Maps. Just thought I’d pass it along.

Probably the best thing about having moved in with my grandmom is that, physically, I’m probably living a healthier life. I’m hardly a health-nut, but when I have the ability, I really do try to eat my best. When I was at Syracuse, I tried to eat at least two salads a day. And, aside [...]
