The Tetris Solution

The problem when traveling from hotel to hotel with two other guys is getting stuck with two queen sized beds which means one sleeps solo while the other two get to share.

But with many TeamID problems, Tetris on the DS is the solution…

but even better than the DS problem solver is the Tetris smack that comes with it.


“I know you think you’re a tetris champion, but you’re not” - ai to Shaun, Oct 9

“I owned you in Tetris, so shut up” – ai to Shaun, Oct 10

And as full disclosure, I’m not posting up on here like I won anything. In fact, I got handed quite hard. Lost 4-1 to ai and 4-0 to Shaun. >sigh<

California Here We Come

We’ve been on the run
Driving in the sun
Looking out for number one

After flapping our gums about this trip for two years, we’ve finally flown out to The Golden State, California for the annual TeamID Thanksgiving long weekend road trip… and all on the cheap!

Hustlers grab your guns
Your shadow weighs a ton
Driving down the 101

Thanks to Shaun's ability to wrangle up enough votes to win a contest on Facebook for a trip  for four, a free night stay at a hotel courtesy via air points and ai's uncanny ability to uncover rock bottom prices on hotel/car rentals, this trip is practically free!

On the stereo
Listen as we go
Nothing’s gonna stop me now

The only hard part was making it across the border to B-Lo for a flight at 6am. That meant departing from home at 2am… which also meant little to no sleep. .:orders a pair of grumpy pants, size three:.

Pedal to the floor
Thinkin’ of you more
Gotta get us to the show

California!

Whispers of Sweet Nothing

Downtown Baltimore has a really nice harbor area. Great for tourists. Old naval ships, aquarium, submarine, shops and Irish restaurants that sell pho (gah?)

Also located in the harbor is Maryland’s Science Center. And just outside the front entrance are two pieces of plastic concave… things.

Apparently, one is supposed to be able to stand in front of the circle with another person behind them. The person behind (aka the 2nd person) whispers something and thanks to technological advancements, the person facing the concave disk is supposed to hear what the whisperer said.

The Bromance tried, but we failed. Even with the directions printed on the back, we couldn’t figure out how to make it “work”

My grade 10 science teacher Mr. Brogly is rolling in his grave.

funny, if you look at the picture above, the lady in the background has a screw face on. She is not impressed by the monkeys failing at science. "See son, that's why you have to finish high school"
