  Hell week. 
Damn, well my last post was accurate, if a little bit of an exaggeration within the statement itself. The shit did indeed hit the fan, and still continues to hit the fan. Though I must say, I managed to pull through science olympiad smelling like daisies. Samson and I were awarded sixth in Compute This! And Mike and I won fifth in astronomy, which wasn't too bad considering that I hardly studied. Mike also won everyone medals in windpower, which was totally awesome. I'll have some pictures of science olympiad goodness when I can figure out how to post it without bloating my meager cox account. If anyone knows of good online storage to be had (somewhere between 5-10gigs) for a reasonable price, could you drop me a line? Sunday I blew off my math homework for a few hours to go and have fun at Fiddlesticks with the youth group. It was pretty good, we focused on the go-karts. There was this one idiot who was 1. smoking in line, I'm pretty sure Fiddlesticks is a non-smoking establishment 2. Jumping the fence in order to get the fast car every time. Now, this isn't some sort of quasi superstitious belief that one car was slightly faster, no, this one was undeniably faster in so dramatic a rift of comparable speeds that even a blind and/or deaf person could not deny its greatness. So anyways, he jumped the fence a lot to get the fast car, the employees didn't care, and I can see why, they have fairly shitty jobs. Then on one race they decided only to have eight of the sixteen cars race, and the fast car was one of the unfortunate cars to be left behind in the starting gate, though if someone were to take the front car around and park it in the back, the fast car would then be included in the race (foreshadowing). So this idiot gets in the front car, and then before the employees even have the chance to announce the instructions he takes off and goes around the race track, all for the fast kart. At this point I'm sure even the most apathetic of employees would want to hand out an ass-kicking. So, one of them turns to the people and line and asks, "should we kick him out?" His response was nothing if not affirmative. Clapping and cheering usually only associated with the liberation of France after a long war. And in a sense it was a liberation, a liberation from his tyranny of idiocy. So after going around a second time (like the mature genius he obviously was he forgot that a gate exists which prevents people from doing what he had in mind) he finally decided to turn around and pull into the starting area facing the wrong way. When he gets in there the attendant comes up marks his bracelet and tells him to get off the attraction. At this point the idiot-man starts going on and on about how the go-kart is obviously defective because when he pushed the pedal it went forward and how he didn't feel safe in their go-karts and he might sue. I'd directly transcribe some of his talk, but the sheer idiocy of his speech would certainly scar young developing children for life and leave even the most stout hearted among you unable to think clearly for days. I'll have to continue the rant about this week tomorrow, I have some notecards that absolutely cry out to be finished. But that doesn't mean that all of you shouldn't not refuse to attend century of song tonight and Friday at seven PM.
