How did I miss this one from NASA?

COMMENTS:
– Yesterday… worked late, rode the bus home, got some fried chicken, and worked late.
– Jess and I were walking home from the scav hunt meeting when we felt the wind turn. It was on Cornell, about halfway between Hyde Park and 53rd St.

CONCEPT

There is a vocabulary specific to the Scavenger Hunt. It is succinctly outlined in the University of Chicago ScavHunt ByLaws.

* * * * *

When a high judge ascends to a higher plane of existence, such as the Peace Corps or graduate school, the Sir Ector confirms the absence of our shepherd by ceremonially cutting three of the Scavenczar’s favorite items (an act which would have been met with derision and flogging if the Scavenczar were presenct).1 The Sir Ector then arranges for the Scavenczar’s T-shirts to be shredded and seals the original copies of lists the Scavenczar presided over in a manila envelope, and buries it six-feet deep on the 57th Street Beach.

30 DAYS to SCAV HUNT

Actually, I lie. It’s only 29 days to scav hunt. But I forgot to start the countdown yesterday. Thus I begin to cunningly lure you into the madness.

COMMENTS:
– Yesterday I felt compelled to live and did so. I was able to leave work around quarter-to-two. I walked up to my Fifth-Third branch (Division and Dearborn) and got the PIN for my Jeanie card. I took the train back home.

CONCEPT

COMMENTS:
– Spring is here! We can probably trace the beginning of what we’d call “spring” to the beginning of last week, which was around eight weeks from Groundhogs day. I don’t fault Phil, though. He isn’t given the opportunity to prognosticate a time-frame, and really, from February 1st, such predictions would be beyond the best meteorologists in the first place.

CONCEPT

COMMENTS:
– You’ll have to forgive me. In last several days I’ve either posted what’s silly and strange, or nothing at all. It’s one of those quirks of life that there’s the least time to write when there’s the most to write about.

CONCEPT

COMMENTS CONTINUED:
– I’d like to post most aggressively. Specifically, I’d like to post at least 6 substantive posts each week. (Substantive is not “of the day” nor toss-off posts. They would ideally either outline an argument or fram a question).

Don’t worry. I’ll be in touch with you shortly to answer your question regarding how to
