Semester at Sea – Spring 2007 (Alex Song) On a ship, traveling around the world, at 20 miles an hour

We call him Heavy D

But of course, when addressing him to his face we go with Father, Archibishop, or Arch. Whatever you want to call him though…I got Toots to wave at me. That was freakin killer. I can’t wait for his next photo op so I can get a picture of us O.G’s.

Also, know what’s fun? Having to download a 30 meg update for your camera software so it can download RAW images properly. On a satellite internet connection. At 4 kb/s. Ahh…the joys of being a early adopter.

So Ali will be buying a PS2 in Cape Town so we can get our DDR freak on, but the only problem is finding the dance mats. If any of you resourceful people could find a place in either Cape Town or Johannesburg where we can purchase DDR mats for the PS2, please give us a heads up.

Also, I just soul my soul to become this voyage’s web site guy. Yes sirs and ma’am’s, when the Spring 07 website goes live, some of that code will have been written by yours truly. Considering my last major web presence was back in 2001, it’ll be interesting to see if I can reignite that same spark I had back in the days when I painstakingly typed out every line of HTML by hand. In any case, our competition (previous voyages’ websites) is fairly weak and it shouldn’t tax me too much to create one of my web masterpieces.

Damn, I don’t think I want to wait around any longer for this update to finish. Shouldn’t be too hard finding a net cafe in Cape Town.

We’re over halfway there!
