Computer Troubles...

Computer…

So my computer has made it to 3 continents, on countless roadtrips, has weathered every season, has been dropped, spilled on, overworked, and everything in between. Not that I don’t take good care of it, I have actually taken amazing care of it all things considered. But it is on its final leg. We’ll see what happens with it, but I am praying that it makes it through the end of my stay here. In order to try and accomplish that, I have consolidated all of my photos and copied every important file on to my external hard drive (just in case) and have limited my computer use to word, iphoto, and itunes (which is actually the application that started the whole meltdown). So keep your fingers crossed that it holds out for a while and at the very least until I submit my application to the French Teaching Assistantship program!

And the Big Red Machine finally beat a top 10 team! It took a little while, but it feels good to finally be back in the ranks of the nation’s best! Let’s just hope we can show Iowa St. how lucky they were last year to escape Lincoln with their first win there since ’77. I still can’t believe it, but at least playing Iowa St. this year won’t hurt our strength of schedule – shout out to Mac Brown down in Texas (feel free to mention something about Baylor as well). Ha, that’s too bad! But seriously props to Paul Rhodes, ISU is making headway and could be in the upper half (along with Art Briles and Baylor!) of what is left of the B12 in a few years. But the Big 12 will never be the Big 12 without the Big Red…GBR!
