well. this was an impressive game, right down to the finish (which, in the last 30 seconds, included a personal foul for unnecessary roughness, a fumble by the Giants which was then recovered by the Eagles, and a fight that broke out as the clock wound down). DeSean Jackson in particular just kicked ass.
it’s clear that Donovan McNabb and Michael Vick get along well (and for this we thank god, after having lived through T.O. a few years ago). just based on the relatively small sampling of photos of today’s game culled from The Daily News, it’s pretty much a lovefest out on the field.
so now for something a bit lighter. i made some LOL Eagles. i realize that that, demographically, the audience for this is vanishingly small (somehow, i don’t think many Eagles fans know what LOLcats are, but perhaps i’m underestimating). there are some inside jokes that you may not get if you’re not a fan. enjoy!
i’ve been doing a lot of good thinking lately. part of my second year is that i have to present the sources of my work to the whole school. high stakes. so that has forced me to think about a lot of things, both in my work and in my life. i want to write […]
