grissom’s hat

October 13, 2005

This post is devoted 100% to Grissom’s hat (main character on CSI for those without an appreciation for fine television). I’ll find a picture, but I don’t want you to have to look at it quite yet…

When you first look at it, the hat reminds you of a cross between a wide-brimmed “coach richt” sideline straw hat, and a sombrero. Then, at second glance, you get the “sides turned up” look of a cheap cowboy hat. Finally, about the time you decide that it should have a big peacock feather stuck in the side, he takes it off (wouldn’t want to wear it inside)!

Without further adieu, this is the man my girlfriend is obsessed with!

I’ve gotta get back to watching the rest of it, but please watch CSI (thursdays 9pm CBS) and appreciate the hat.

quick, throw up a happy distracting post

Class today was terribly boring, i sat through a tiny bit and then went to the library (figuring that I could read the slides as well as the lecturers could, and I read a little faster than they talk).
I ate some McDonald’s (I’ve been playing the monopoly game because Brigid is confident that there are lots of prizes to be won) and talked with Ry (who is also actively playing monopoly, funny how that works). He is the quarterback for the “good” 2nd year flag football team so we discussed the “ins and outs” of offense, etc.
No real plans for the rest of the day, I studied in the library till about 1:45 and then came back here to relax. I’m trying to stay current with our lecture material but it’s all over the place (they rearranged some lectures and lost the “flow”).
In other news, I sold our 4 GT/Wake Forest tickets on ebay today (about 12 hours after I put them up for sale, which is good). I probably am selling those tickets too cheap, but I’d rather have a little money in my pocket than worry about holding the tickets too long. So, I’ve gotta ship them priority mail to some guy named Jeff in Tallahassee, FL.

I should have calmed down a little before posting last night, I don’t know how I got so fired up. I’m winning a big chunk of my sports bets, so you’d think that would relax me a little bit….
like I said, not much going on tonight (no OC, but CSI is going to be on and poppin).

In other news, I’m looking at a more permanent hosting site (through a company called “NearlyFreeSpeech.net” which is a pay-as-you-go webhost), so hopefully I’ll be able to combine all of these blog entries under the new http://www.thomas-wood.com (link obviously not yet active).

COMMENT PLEASE, this could be so much better if you guys participated.
