Observations Serve the Community
I got to go to court and meet with my attorney and some police officers and a judge and some stenographers and there were a few other people there too. Quite frankly, court is just not intimate enough.

I Don’t Like 2.0
As I write this, I am currently logged in with my new PIC neat log on thingy. I think. I don't get computers. And I don’t like change.
Timeline of a Quadruple Murder
My old college <a href="http://tampabayonline.net/reports/shooting/video.htm">roommate sent me this link</a>. We can’t believe it’s been ten years since it happened.
The Snippets Strained a Calf
Danielle: You look depressed. Me: Albert Pujols got injured yesterday. He'll probably be out for a month. Danielle: Who's gonna be out of what now? Me: The best position player on the Cardinals got injured. Danielle: Wait. Don't all players play a position? Me: Do you really want to hear the long explanation for that baseball term? Danielle: No.
A Day Late with the Observations
Yesterday, as I was being driven home from work like a piece of big, fleshy luggage, the sky opened up and scattered lightning bolts and windy rain all over us. Which is cool. I mean, it’s not cool but that’s summer in Florida. In Florida, every summer it rains pretty much everyday and there’s more lightning than in the other seasons. I’m fine with that because that’s how it always is.
Happy Birthday to the Blog
The Nate Way <a href="https://www.pointsincase.com/nathan/2005/06/welcome-to-nates-blog.html">turns three today</a>. It seems like only yesterday that we started this thing. Back then I was asking PIC Owner Court Sullivan questions like, “What’s a blog?” and “Is this legal?” and “You don’t have an extra computer, do you?” And now, here we are precisely three years later.
The Snippets Don’t Care Who Wins
Me: So, why the hell should I care who wins, again? Jake: It's Lakers/Celtics. You have to give a shit. Me: Why? I don't root for either team. Jake: It's like Star Wars. Either you're a Sith fan or a Jedi fan. Me: Honestly, you really need to move out of your parents' place. Me: Why are you calling me Little Nate? Scott: Because Big Nate is bigger than you.
Humans Name Their Hurricanes
Okay, so I’m a little late with this year’s <a href="https://www.pointsincase.com/nathan/2005/11/whats-in-hurricane-name.html">hurricane name gimmick</a>.
Observations Like a Misspelled Word
Okay, by far and away the funniest thing from Friday’s spelling bee was the kid who thought he got the word(s) “numb nuts” and said so out loud. Not a top five moment in bee history, but definitely in the top fifty. Erin Andrews has more business at the spelling bee than did last year’s “sideline reporter” Stu Scott. But not much more.

Bee Awesome
<div style="clear:both;"></div>I get fifteen paid vacation days a year. I take off to see my family every summer and over Christmas break. I use the rest for the occasional festival or for-me-fun vacation. I used to take off one day a year for the Spelling Bee but I stopped thanks to <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">TIVO</span>.<br />
The Snippets Moved Next Door
<div style="clear:both;"></div>Ashley: So, you're taking Friday off to watch the spelling bee?<br />Me: The semi-finals, yup.<br />Ashley: You are so such a geek.<br />Me: The spelling bee kicks ass and everyone knows it. All non-believers will be swayed.<br />Ashley: Dork.<br /><br />Scott: I don't know how I feel about carrying this mattress.<br />Me: Nobody does.<br />
