I heard something that when asked to identify Denison University's nickname (the Big Red), some team guessed "the Hamlins." Which is absolutely hilarious, considering that probably very few people around here know who I am (and really would have no reason to) . . . Other funny stories: * At UMCP's spring HS tourney in 1998, I was a senior, and Jessie Connolly (aka PixiStixGirl) was a junior. We had just started to be friends, despite the fact that Andy Goss had dumped me for her. So Jessie and I, high out of our minds on Mountain Dew, sat in and observed a match between TJHSST (Andy's team) and Gonzaga (I had developed a crush on the captain of this team that day). As a side note, TJ and Gonzaga had had a back-and-forth rivalry that entire year, culminating in the It's Academic Super Bowl. Anyway, Jessie and I giggled and laughed hysterically throughout the entire match, frequently interrupting it. Afterwards, Matt Brady (then at TJ, at UVA last year) took me aside and threatened to physically remove me from sitting in on another TJ match. I thought that was pretty funny. Back to work on my paper . . . I've written almost four pages! :-) Kristin (See a lot of you this weekend!)
