Journal Red Warrior's Journal: And that's one to grow on 11

Journal by Red Warrior
Among other things, I have learned in the last 24 hours that:
1. When one is thrown in the Judo version of the fireman's carry throw (I forget the Japanese), landing on the exact top of one's head is ... nonprefered.
2. During continuous free sparing, I'm pretty good at strangles
3. I suck at chokes.
4. Classified.
5. 50 Cent will be coming to our stadium (did I mention that we have renovated the stadium?, we're so overtasked here). I shan't attend.
5. Tomorrow, I will watch King Arthur and Anchorman at the theater (I'm taking the day off)
6. [redacted]
7. It's much more convienient to get on the internet at [work location] at night than to go to the internet cafe, and I can stay on longer. (sometimes I'm a little slow.
8. But I can't get to the fantasy football site from here.
9. It's nice actually having a job. Even if it only takes a little effort.
10. It appears that the double-payment that it seemed I was going to get wasn't a big deal. The second payment was for $27.11, so it looks like they used the 2003 per diem rates, and needed to adjust to the 2004 rates (about $1.00 a day change)
11. And stuff. (that one's for the folks at work)

In case you're wondering, some of my more pointless JEs since I have been back are due to the fact that I found out that a number of people IRL worry (needlessly, really!!!) about me, and are nervous if they don't see posts fairly often.

    • O isn't too shabby. Got a LOT of potential. D ... well, let's hope the O carries you. :)

    • What I love is that almost no Patriots are top fantasy picks for anyone ... and yet, they are still the champs, and still favored by most to win the Super Bowl. Gotta love real teams. :-)
      • I think the pats are going to fall apart. For one thing, they are at cap max. Ty Law my go bye-bye. If not, between him and the new Corey Dillon, the "me me me" attitude may be a bit too much, and the team will slowly begin to untwine. Not to mention how extrodinarily dull the short passing game has become with the Pats. People want to see hard hitting defense, long bombs, pounding run game. Not the 'dink-and-dunk' thing. And their D will have to be completely revamped if the refs stay true to their

          Law is already under contract. You're talking about next year there, which is beside the point.

          Law's been like this since day one, and that was 10 seasons ago. He knows when to shut up and play. As to Dillon, we'll see. It is a concern.

          Winning 14 games in a row isn't dull

    Its called kata guruma and all I can say is ouch!

    Keep it up with chokes, you'll get them. That's why you get to be good friends with your fellow judoka so they don't get all pissed when they have bruised adam's apples while you're learning.

    Have fun with the classes, I miss them now that I don't have time to.

    • kata guruma

      Interesting. I was calling it "damn!damn!damndamnfsckdamn!" but I was pretty sure that wasn't the technical name.

    • dam chokes.... I never liked them. I did Judo for 1.5 years in high school, but was far far to tall and skinny to have a hope of a low center of gravity, unless I was full-on sumo wrestler squatting.
