Card House
Here's my newest hobby. Card house building. It's actually very therapeutic, when it doesn't fall down. I've tried it before, and been semi-successful, but the last couple of months, things have really taken off. I set a new personal best with 11 stories the other night. Here's a picture on the way there-

Unfortunately, the finished product didn't have the chance to be documented. It's life was short.
Then tonight, I figured out how to make a dome. The next project had to be the pantheon... or the capitol... or something-

I don't know why I always put the cards facing the same direction. I think that I might be slightly obsessive compulsive. That's probably why that Whoopi Goldberg apples to apples card is bothering me so much.


Oh, how I wish I had real talents.

60 years ago today
I went to a lecture today about Helmuth Hübner. He was an LDS kid in Germany who was the youngest person to be executed for Nazi resistance. It happened 60 years ago today. One of his friends who helped him was there. He went to prison until the end of the war. It's a pretty interesting story. http://www.truthandtreason.com/
Leaping from tree to tree as I float down the mighty rivers of British Columbia!
I took a career interest test the other day and got the results today. There was one career that was a perfect match! 70 out of a possible 70 points! And it was..... a Forester! The advisement councilor had seen Forest ranger on the results before, but never Forester, so she looked it up. It's pretty much a lumberjack! For those of you who have never heard Monte Pythons lumberjack song, you need to. It was the first thing I thought of.

4th pic
Elizabeth, you had something up on your blog about the 4th picture in the 4th photo album on your computer. I wasn't really planning on participating, but out of curiousity looked at what mine was. Aahhh, the memories it brought back. Here is my favorite eating establishment in the world, the Heidelberg Falafel shop. It has the best food and best turkish musik I know. Oh, and the Jesuitenkirche behind it.

Professors
I have a few fun professors:
Bro. Stott is not a teacher at all. He is the head of the BYU police dept. I guess they were a little short on religion professors. I was wondering how things would turn out, but so far, it has been one of my best classes. It's very insightful, and we hear great stories about his undercover drug bustin' ops in the 70s.
Dr. Holland is the son of Jeffery R. Holland. He teaches my american heritage class. My favorite part is his choice of materials. We've see clips of monty python, the simpsons, and other quality teaching aides.
Prof. Kelling is the funniest old german man I know (and I know my fair share of old german men). He also wrote my textbook. that's pretty cool.

The Iron Butt 100
A couple of weeks ago a friend here told me about a century ride in Heber. I've always wanted to do a hundred mile ride, so I decided to go for it. He ended up not being able to come, so it was just me and my camera:
Lots of open road.

The drive up there
Lots of open road.
All this riding makes a man hungry.
Mile 72- Delirium starts to set in.
