This is actually one of the absolute highlights of my swimming career. I managed to weazel my way on to a 200 free relay with: Ian Crocker, Neil Walker and Dale Rogers and we just missed the American Record, but got the Texas Pool Record of 1:16.74 (I split 19.3).
- Current Album: Have become a huge believer in NPR's "First Listen" and "Song of the Day," and they've gifted me some Spanish flavor with The Pinker Tones though am currently captured by David Karsten Daniels. Great album.
- Current Book: Recently finished East of Eden and Accidental Billionaires and must say that the latter was on the other side of ridiculous. Let me attest that Harvard does not involve the parties, women or anything resembling the drama described in those pages. Still, was interesting reading how blown out of proportion the whole thing has become.
- Current Movie: Went through and saw one of Pedro Almodovar's first movies What Have I Done to Deserve This, and would probably say that it's a movie that if you've lived in Madrid you'd enjoy and-if not-you probably wouldn't. You could also read that sentence as me subtly hinting that I live in Europe, you do not.
- Quote of the Week: We'll go with a bit of Spanish culture: "Tan despacio y tan de prisa / Tan normal y tan extrana / Yo me parto la camisa: como Camaron"
