ESA Talk

I'm giving a talk December 12th at the Entomological Society of America Meeting in San Diego. I'm talking about the Diversity of West Indian Tenebrionidae. Can it get any more general? Anyway, I've been slaving away photoshopping beetles and think this one is cool!

AK-47

Killing range: 1,350 m

...From where Ehson is sitting, John is well within the killing range, but he doesn't look too worried...

Fuck You Deer

From my parents yard. She thinks she owns the place.

Happy Thanksgiving

Nothing like way too much to eat and a little super nes. And a little eggnog, made by southern comfort, with a little aftermarket so co.

deep snow and sharp rocks

Went skiing up Slushmans, John has the actual skiing pictures. Knee deep snow on top of a nice rock base. Whatever, rock skis aren't purchased, they are made. The actual skiing in between rocking was pretty awesome.

Wine

It's much easier to uncork then cork. So what's it called?

The Shed

It used to be an outhouse

Bozeman

wooohooo. . . snow in town. I wonder how the skiing is? I bet it'd be a great time to work on my rock boards/only boards.

Veterans Day

At least school was canceled

SO LONG AND THANKS FOR ALL THE BEER

It actually happened, the unthinkable, the rumors are true, I'm leaving Bozeman for a real job in Lehi, UT. The company is called IM Flash and they make solid state memory, stuff for cell phones, ipods, ect... Lehi is about 20 miles south of downtown Salt Lake City. Luckily they have some of the best skiing and biking in the nation, one of the main reasons I took the job. I work a f'ed up schedule but get 3 or 4 day weekends every week, days off are usually midweek plus one weekend day. So I'll probably be back to Bozeman a fair share, after all it is a fairly sweet place with some pretty cool people. And I have a couple ski passes for around here. Everyone will always be welcome to come visit, lots of skiing, biking, place to stay, ect...

Clark!

You got a job! What's it like to be the most "responsible" person I know?

Don't answer that, instead watch this video of two tesla coils playing mario brothers.

sorry Ian, I tried to find it somewhere besides youtube but no dice

Lawyers

I hope this is true. . .

Charlotte , North Carolina .

A lawyer purchased a box of very rare and expensive cigars, then
insured them against, among other things, fire.

Within a month, having smoked his entire stockpile of these great
cigars and without yet having made even his first premium payment on
the policy the lawyer filed a claim against the insurance company.

In his claim, the lawyer stated the cigars were lost 'in a series of
small fires.'


The insurance company refused to pay, citing the obvious reason, that
the man had consumed the cigars in the normal fashion.


The lawyer sued and WON!

(Stay with me.)

Delivering the ruling, the judge agreed with the insurance company
that the claim was frivolous. The judge stated nevertheless, that the
lawyer held a policy from the company, which it had warranted that the
cigars were insurable and also guaranteed that it would insure them
against fire, without defining what is considered to be unacceptable
'fire' and was obligated to pay the claim.

Rather than endure lengthy and costly appeal process, the insurance
company accepted the ruling and paid $15,000 to the lawyer for his
loss of the cigars lost in the 'fires'.


NOW FOR THE BEST PART..


After the lawyer cashed the check, the insurance company had him
arrested on 24 counts of ARSON!!!


With his own insurance claim and testimony from the previous case
being used against him, the lawyer was convicted of intentionally
burning his insured property and was sentenced to 24 months in jail
and a $24,000

fine.
