The Seattle Super Sonics

An Amazing Alliteration for a NBA team. Drobnjak manjak has a website on the Sonic's official page. Be sure to have your speakers turned up when you click here. Yugoslavians are coming up in the world of professional basketball, Lorbek comes to mind. But Lorbek never said, "Tonight your uniform will be wet with the tears of sadness." The 'kids' section is quite hillarious, too.

In order to understand location we must understand location. (Yes, that is what I meant to say.) Location, in a terrestrial and human-scale sense is defined by other locations. Grand Rapids is 60 miles west of Lansing. Due to the changing position of the earth and unfelt universal changes, there is no absolute way to locate something using abstract variables. Thus, we create maps to relate locations. But how do we project a sphereoid onto a flat surface? Decide for yourself. [Note: this link came from my GEO 221 class.]

Scrabblog. Make the best word given 7 random letters.

New favorite quote from Playmakers, "Thinking kills. It's the worst thing you can do." That's why the show has writers instead of middle linebackers.
