Miscellaneous New Photos

October - December 2000

In case you don't recognize him, the guy in the middle is Bruce Campbell, who's best known as the star of the cult classic film "Army of Darkness," one of three in the "Evil Dead" trilogy.  He came to Tech on November 9th and spoke to a full house about his experience (and he's had a lot) in the film and entertainment industry.  He was frickin' hilarious, and all of his hardcore fans were delighted to see him.  From left, that's Justin, Ryan, Jeremy, and moi.

On October 21, my roomies and I went out to the New River Gorge in West Virginia for Bridge Day.  It's the one day a year they close down half the bridge to traffic and let people walk on it and watch skydivers plummet the nearly 900 feet to the bottom.  No, we didn't get to jump... you hafta be a licensed professional, and it costs like $60 to jump.  About 450 people jumped that day, and good fun was had by all (and no, nobody's parachute didn't open, ya sick bastards.  Don't you think I'd take a picture if that happened?)

The circle is the landing target... most people didn't hit it, which is why the boats are there. :)

No, Greg didn't have a kid :)  This is our new cousin Tyler, whom our Uncle Keith and Aunt Lisa just adopted from Romania last summer.  He's two years old and he is absolutely adorable, and we're all delighted to welcome him into the Adams family.

January - April, 2000

This is Ed Baxter (a.k.a. Crazy Eddie), my roommate from last spring.  Actually, despite his wacky appearance in these pictures, Ed's a real laid back kinda guy.  He's one of those cool guys that everyone likes, and we got along really well.  He's transferred to Management Science from Engineering.  He's really into kung fu, and I bet one day he's gonna be all hardcore and kick a bunch of ass.

This was my side of my room last year, 508 O'Shaughnessy.  It was one of the awesome big rooms that I was jealous of freshman year.  That guy on the left is Chris, our next-door neighbor.  He's sitting on couch that we stole from the lounge... after about a month, one of the RAs noticed it and we had to put it back :(

I took this from the window at the end of my hall.  This was the first snow of the season, which was celebrated by the traditional midnight snowball fight on the drillfield.  Ed and I took out my water balloon launcher and pounded the hell out of our "opponents" (pretty much anyone we could hit).  The view overlooks Owens dining hall, on the right; War Memorial Gym, on the left; Eggleston, in the center; and Burruss Hall, across the drillfield in the distance.

The weekend after Valentine's Day, Martha and I went to Tau Delta house with May and Derek for some raucous fun.  This jolly fellow is John Hodge, a friend of mine from North Carolina.  He's an engineering major, and thus he has a twisted but sophisticated sense of humor.

For those of you with modems, I'll be nice and continue on a new page...
