The Pit Preservation Project

I am pleased to announce the formation of The Pit Preservation Project!



The brainchild of Andrew Person, the Pit Preservation Project (PPP or "P-Cubed" or "The P's") is a new initiative designed to preserve the history of such an important part of our American culture. The PPP is also pleased to announce the formation of the Pit Preservation Project Principle Property (PPPPP) which houses the vast archives of the PPP.

To celebrate this momentous occasion, the PPP is re-releasing from its archives two very important items: "The Pit Does Something Incredibly Stupid" and its trailer.

A Note:
The low quality of "The Pit Does Something Incredibly Stupid" is due to the 2002 era digital photo camera used for the video and the Palm Pilot used for the sound. One day, with your help, we might be able to put these videos, and all Pit related materials, in a format that future generations will be able to see. In order to fund this, The PPP is pleased to announce The Pit Preservation Project's Powerful Pelf Phund (PPPPP)! This fund will help pay for the costs associated with locating and preserving our dearest of treasures. More to follow...

Enjoy the videos!

We need your support to make this a success. Find the photos, videos, cds, tapes that document the past of such an important organization and make them available to our archivists so that we can preserve them for our future.

SMACK!

HA! A couple of internet distractions for ya... and a discussion of Larry Potter.

I know, this is probably obnoxious. But... here's some funny Internet stuff to keep you company.



1) "Excuse me, Mrs. Embalmo..." NEW Teen Girl Squad. For those of you who don't know/remember, TGS is a hand drawn comic made by Strong Bad. It's a combination of high school girl stereotypes and boy-ish humor (hence the needless violence). Anyway, the new one is very funny.


2) For SOME reason, Bobby Knight had a Golf show at some point. Here are some outtakes! That's all I need to say. (2:15 ish... is probably the best).

3) THIS woman tried to sue J.K. Rowling claiming copyright infringement. She claims to have created a character named "Larry Potter" in the 80's and also wrote a book about Muggles. It turns out that she fabricated a bunch of documents and ended up owing Scholastic Press money... but I do find the whole thing humorous. Not only are her attempts at connecting herself to Harry Potter funny... but also just the fact that SHE ended up having to pay. It's all on wikipedia.

Let me know what you think!

sub fun!

So I subbed this past Thursday. My first time ever subbing. I wasn't worried cause it was just a half day and it was for third grade, how hard could that be....right. Before I get started, quick question. Is it good if the principal has to come to your room after only an hour? Ok anyway so I'm in the room waitin for the kiddies. The file in and are very excited to have a guy sub. (awesome) So they start with silent reading, everything is fine. Then we do a writers workshop where they just have to write a story. shit i could do this in my sleep, no problem. I notice a small boy walking around a lot and not really doing any work. I was pretty content to let him busy himself with other matters until those matters turned into ripping up papers and breaking pens. ok a little odd, but im still good. So I go over and talk with little Bishop. freakin awesome name. I ask him whats going on, makes some jokes, get on his good side. easy. So then it starts to escalate to where Bishop is now recklessly creating messes everywhere and freakin out the other kids, stay calm im twice his size i can take him. So I go over and explain his options, write a story, go to the nurse, or go to the office. He chose to rip up more paper and throw books on the floor. funny i dont remember that as an option. So I pull out the big guns, I go ask another teacher what in the hell I'm sposed to do! She comes over and tries to get him to go to the office. He decides to run around. We page the office for some backup, and the principal shows up. wow, we really went strait to the top on that one. The principal uses his index finger to give him the come here signal and Bishop walks right on over....!!!!!!....WHAT! why didn't i think of the index finger move!? The rest of the day all 2 hours of it were pretty uneventful considering. Some kids cried over some accusations, messes were made, Lucas was frustrated. ahh back to normal. So there's day .5 of subbing, no problem....right


to sum up: I'm ready for the Chief controversy to be over, but I will kinda miss him...probably till tomorrow.

Even though I don't think anybody reads this...

Just writing to say that my infamous "eye horn" is now GONE! It plum fell off. I was pretty excited. I know, I know... not very exciting, right? I'm sure there's OTHER stuff that people could talk about that would be MUCH more exciting.

::sigh::

o well.

The Chief is no more.
