What's a blog?

Monday, March 31, 2003

Oh Mylanta, what a week it's been. Too busy to update, but no one reads this anyway so who cares?!
The 30 hour fasting is now over and it's time to start working out again and eating like crazy. I hope I didn't lose any weight because that would be a shame... a darn crying shame...Anyway, I'm going to start trying to appreciate the food we get in the servery and not complaining anymore..so if you hear me saying something like, "This food sucks" please kindly remind me to be more grateful.
After that we watched a nice movie called I not stupid. It was pretty good. My only complaint is that it's a pretty racist movie. If I hear one more racist comment about Filipinos I'll kill someone. Oops, I mean..... I'll kill someone...shoot.

By the way, now thanks to Enetation you can leave comments on any of the entries on this blog and on The Beef Files. This is pretty exciting because now The Beef Files are interactive and the world can hear what you have to say about particular beef stories! (And it gives me many more opportunities to impersonate Matt Bullard) This is also gives people who refuse to sign my guestbook another chance to leave comments, questions, and violent reactions.

ps--some of the beef files are all clumped together in one or two gigantic blog entries so for now you can't really comment on specific "Classic Beef Files"..maybe i'll fix it someday.

One more website related thing: I need submissions for the Dump Page. If you know of any good bathrooms on or around Rice University's campus please email me

And now...time for some cow poetry

The distant hills call to me.
Their rolling waves seduce my heart.
Oh, how I want to graze in their lush valleys.
Oh, how I want to run down their green slopes.
Alas, I cannot.
Darn the electric fence!
Darn the electric fence!
Thank you.

Today's Blog Entry is dedicated to Chad Hernandez (R.I.P)


Chad, I'm sorry I didn't get to know you better and that I didn't keep in touch with you much after you left Rice. My only comfort is that I know we'll meet again someday on the other side. This is a painful reminder that usually you don't miss something until it's gone.

Please consider supporting me in the 30 Hour Famine. (participant id: RUY-1000).
I know you're thinking: "Won't Reuben die if he fasts for 30 hours?" Well, the answer is--I hope not (i'm not THAT malnourished). Seriously though, we're raising money to help feed children from some of the poorest countries in the world. Check out the website and see how you can get involved.

Thanks,
Reuben
