Aziz Hansari’s mix tape
I’ve seen this comedian a few times now and think he is quite funny. His skit about trying to pick up girls and going to California is hilarious. At his most recent stand-up he showed this video and luckily it was on his website. Check it out here, and Merry Christmikah.
MUD tournament
So the team REDRUM asked me to join them for the MUD Ultimate tournament in Madison CT. It would be my first real ‘2-day’ tournament so I was quite excited. The fields were nice and had a beach that we could walk to, which was really good for the sore muscles after each day’s games. Our 1st day was really tough but we wound up getting placed in the upper bracket for the next day. After the 2nd game we realized we’d be going into the finals against a strong team. It was an amazing game a lot of tension throughout. The lead went back and forth but we pulled through with a spectacular closing play and WE WON!! It was an incredible feeling. My first Ultimate tournament and we go all the way. I must really congratulate the team which played extremely well and thanks for letting me tag along.

Very lucky to snag tickets to this suspenseful comedy written by David Mamet. I was only familiar with the movie rendition of the play so I was happy to finally catch it on stage. It’s a riveting account of the competitive personalities working in a seedy Chicago real estate office. Mamet creates a realistic portrayal of the furious high stakes world of American entrepreneurship where people will stop at nothing to get ahead. However, I think the story is relevant to anyone who tries to get ahead in today’s working society.
The stellar cast included Alan Alda, Live Schreiber, Jeffrey Tambor, Frederick Weller, Tom Wopat, Gordon Clapp.
