i am busting out a new update just for you... yes you.


well all is going well in the life of thomas.


lately i have been making stencils and using them with spray paint. if you have an idea for a stencil i will probably make one. its pretty neat. i might soon be using them to make some shirts. sam i made your monkey. what else is going on. not to much. this weekend is the fall retreat at big sandy, once again i am wearing all coopertown bible camp clothing to protest. cooperstown is way better. anyway. um yeah. i saw dodgeball this last weekend and will review it but i don't fell like writing more now so i am gonna make like a baby and head out first.

well here is the deal... i want to update but i don't want to take the time to type anything you know how it is sometimes. but anyway i am going to make a compromise. i will type a little bit and then copy abit


thursday was the third PST (pink shirt day) it went rather well, many participated with out knowing because of spirit week, pinkday. i want to know who picked those days and whether or not they knew of PST. if you have any information relating to this contact me. you all know how.


did some spray paint art for art class and got a 20/20. nice work for me


here is the bit i am copying it is a section from an email i recieved from Linn Veile. the email was titled Happy Friday and is a weekly "publication". it is great fun and here is a segment from this weeks "issue"


ZUCCHINI: THE OTHER NUCLEAR WASTE
     Alright, I don't know how many of you have had experience with these delightful
(full sarcasm intended), garden-variety monsters, but they have tormented me at many
venues in my life. Let me go on record now as saying that the only good uses for
Zucchini are number one: some form of dessert bread (i.e. Zucchini bread or muffins)
and number two: target practice.
    Have you ever grown these things in your garden? You CAN'T kill them. Believe me
I have tried. Nothing else could survive from the summer's gardening efforts and that
monstrosity would. It's (ready for this Princess Bride fans) inconceivable! lol While
the devious seed companies try to disguise them under different names like Italian
squash, Courgette, or Zapallo, they are distinguishable by their mug shot on the
front: Cylindrical and oblong shape with a medium, glossy, dark green color. Be ever
wary and on the look out!
      People the solution to world hunger has been staring us right in the face for
years: Zucchini. If North Dakota's climate can't kill it, it should grow just about
any where. Part of the problem with having a bumper crop of Zucchini, is that
everyone else has one too. This means that everyone is trying to pawn their extra
Zucchini off on everyone else. LOCK YOUR DOORS!!! It only takes you one time to learn
your lesson there. I'm serious! Have you ever walked out from church to find the back
seat of your car filled with Zucchini, or come home from town to find some kind soul
has left you a grocery bag full of the stuff? The innocent pranks of some juvenile
looking for laughs? I think not. Something much more sinister is afoot here. (As a
note for future reference: little old ladies are quicker than you might expect.)
        As my siblings can attest to, we have been subjected to more than our fair
share of Zucchini concoctions: fried Zucchini rounds, stir fried, baked, Zucchini
hotdish, Zucchini soup, Zucchini lasagna (which I have to say tastes pretty good, but
I can't get past the texture), and chocolate Zucchini cake (to name a few). Our mum
is very creative when it comes to ways to use this notorious produce. (I love you
Mom!) I understand that I was pretty fortunate to be at college this week as they
were having a bit of a See How Much Zucchini You Can Cook and Eat marathon at home.
(Don't worry Patty, I made Mom promise she would suspend the competition until after
the weekend concludes. hehe) In fact, today my mother informed me that she thought
"Zucchini should be people too," and we should have another shirt made for
it.  My roommate and I promptly informed her that, that only works for potatoes. (If
you haven't heard that story let us know.)
    So in conclusion, let me suggest this: if we were to harness the tremendous
energy that this plant produces while growing and multiplying, we could indeed have a
power source to rival that of nuclear fission.


That is all for today folks. take care

Pink Shirt Thursday went great. nice work all of you who wore pink keep it up the rest of the thursdays to come. for those of you who don't have any pink shirt go to savers or any other thrift store. i am sure that they will have one. if you are going to go to savers i suggest mondays, all tags of a certian color are only 99 cents.


friday was a good day too, no pink shirts but still good. school and all that normal jazz. lauren came over around 8 and we went for a long walk and then we watched "master and commander" it was a good night


today is saturday and moorhead crushed valley city in kvly highschool challenge. 700 to 375 they did pretty well. their score would have won other matches taped earlier today but it came no where near us. 700 is the most points that any of us morrhead peeps have heard of anyone getting. congrats to all of you on the team with me. i am thinking of going over to concordia to draw people. i started drawing people in math class but i can't ever get faces to look right so i need to ldraw people facing the other way and preferably without their hands visible. there are a bunch of people out reading/laying in the sun. i bet i could find someone i could draw.


well i am out. did you know that tiaga and coniferous forests are the same thing? cause charlie johnson didn't... or that 5/3 is 1.66666 or that commander in cheif is another title for president...there were some more he didn't know but oh well
