Many folks have requested a product review for my new shoes, so I'm going to use this to track my use/abuse with them. I wore them for about 5 hours on Tuesday. Mostly around campus. I have almost all of my classes in the Cathedral, which has either vermont slate or smooth concrete floors. They aren't the most comfortable and the lack of insulation in the shoes tends to pull the heat out of your feet. Not so bad in August, but I forsee an issue in colder months. Wednesday I wore them to class and then on a run with my friend Toby. 3 miles by his estimation, about half on gravel trails in the park and half on roads/sidewalks. Fine gravel and dirt is by far the most comfortable. Large gravel, like that around train tracks, is really unpleasant. McAdam pavement is slightly better than concrete. Today me calves and feet were a bit sore, but I think it's from muscle fatigue/strengthening, rather than bruising. Regrdless, I only wore them for a few hours before switching to more normal sneakers. Here's my schedule as it currently stands. I'm wavering on Empiricism, because it's pretty dense/boring and I have a lot on my plate already. we'll see.

some things
My new shoes arrived today. They were a birthday present, but because of sizing and colors I had to have them ordered and they only just came today. In a small box liberally secured with green duct tape. What are they you murmur? Because you always thought Kyle was chiseled from a block of condensed testosterone would never gush on and on about new shoes on his livejournal? well, you're partly right, but these are a pretty geek-tastic set of footware. They are size M41 Vibram FiveFinger KSOs in steely black. or freak feet as I like to call them. Or maybe Gecko-Toes. I haven't decided, yet. http://www.vibramfivefingers.com/products/products_KSO_m.cfmI wore them for about 3 hours, took a walk, mostly on concrete. They feel so light. I kind of want to skip around. Maybe this is why girls wear the slipper-style tiny shoes I had always scoffed (sometimes loudly) at before. "It may take some time your body to adapt to using these new muscles, so we recommend wearing FiveFingers for 1-2 hour intervals for the first few weeks. Gradually increase usage as your body strengthens an adapts." I didn't notice any real pain, but we'll see how the first week goes. More info about the m here: http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/blog/2009/05/07/vibram-five-fingers-shoes/I'm taking 19 credits, working two nights a week, and coordinating the transportation and security for a 150+ delegate conference in November. It will be a busy fall. | | Thursday, August 20th, 2009 | | 2:42 pm |
I got back to Pittsburgh Tuesday. There was a white bicycle across from the apartment I lived in this summer with a few potted flowers. A sign read "August 3, 2009; A cyclist was killed here." I had left on the 30th of July. http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/news/tribpm/s_637009.htmlI got into my new dorm room yesterday. It's nicer than I expected, but I still cannot get on the internet yet. | | Saturday, July 25th, 2009 | | 2:49 pm |
I like solid wooden doors. I like them thick and full of character. Especially hung in non-standard frames. The Phyrst, for example, has a wonderful door. The door to my apartment bedroom is a terrible violation of this aesthetic. It's the standard dimensions, which can only be expected for most internal doors, but it's made as cheaply as possible from half inch strips of pine and cardboard. I understand that this is a cheap apartment there are the accompaning perks and flaws of cheapness, but on a purely security level I don't think that cardboard should be a structural component of the barrier between me/my stuff and party goers/burglars/klepto housemates. I say this partly because my friend (whose room I've borrowed/sub-letted this summer) had his door somewhat easily forced open while hosting a party. One of our female friends had had a lot to drink and my friend was giving her his bed to sleep in so she wouldn't have to try the walk home. He locked the door since falling asleep before a party ends is usually an open invitation for people to take pictures or draw on or otherwise harrass you while you're trying to sleep off the alcohol. Anyway, a gang of white knights somehow decided/got the impression that he was planning nefarious things for some poor, defenseless drunk girl and took it upon themselves to break open the door and punch him in the face. It was that evening that we discovered that his door was mostly hollow and cardboard. The problem isn't so much the gaggle of guys mistakenly trying to protect some girl's honor; I don't know what lurid hearsay they were acting upon. It's just that the whole issue could have been avoided if the door was substantial and secure. I listened to Neil read his newberry-winning novel The Graveyard Book on http://www.mousecircus.com/videotour.aspx I realize that this approximately equal to stealing the audiobook except with more flubbed words and pauses to drink water. I rationalize it by saying that I would have just read a 'free' copy at the carnegie library anyway, but that's giving me credit for a bit too much initiative. I'll only be living here for another week, which is odd to think of. My summer break is finally coming. in August. Current Music: Slurring the Rhythms | | Wednesday, July 15th, 2009 | | 2:00 am |
I am always amazed at my own ability to purchase food. I'll linger for days on condiments, ramen, and frozen hotdogs until I eventually remember 'hey, there's a grocery store that you take a shortcut past every day. it's only a block from your house. maybe you should purchase some fresh food.' Suddenly my days are full of vegetables and cheeses and fruit and our refrigerator is less barren and depressing. It shouldn't take an epiphany for me to purchase my own bread, but at home food was reliably restocked by some arcane calendar administered by 'mom' and 'dad' and then for the first three years of college, I had a meal plan and little ability or inclination to cook too much for myself on a regular basis. I've discovered (and devoured 17/22 episodes as of this writing) the first season of Angel on Hulu. The first one was a whimsical choice, since I had some time to kill and The Daily Show was on vacation last week. That one episode lead to five in one night, in a spectacular display of Joss Whedon and Insomnia teaming up against me. Sometimes there's so much buffyspeak that I want to punch Cordelia in the throat, but somehow I keep watching. Sarah and I are going to Canada in August, before my birthday! | | Monday, July 6th, 2009 | | 11:57 pm |
So a few days ago I discovered http://omegle.com/ by way of the xkcd blag. And it's really fun. Well, sometimes; it's the luck of the draw and as long as you don't take internet cruelty and hostility personally, it can be fun. It reminds me of the old days of anonymous instant messaging where you had a new screen name every night and just talked to people around the world. You could be yourself or any grandiose alias you could convincingly type as. Or you could be an indiscriminate asshole. It's very liberating. I talked to a kid who'd just graduated from high school in Connecticut. He's going to Penn this fall hoping to study evolutionary psychology. He and I shared a lot of links. But not everyone is so good or interesting a conversationalist. Sometimes they just scream "Cocks_Cocks_Cocks wow u r gay" and log out. ( Here's an example of one of my better conversations: ) | | 3:35 am |
* I tried to give blood on the 3rd, but failed for the first time. I was attempting to give double red cells, but there were complications with the nurse, the red cell separation machine and my veins. I'm not sure who is to blame; I'm definitely not as fit as other times I've given blood, but the machine was (by their admission) behaving oddly and there was trouble placing the needle in my arm. My veins practically leap out of my skin and getting a needle in had never been an issue before. The short story is that I eventually had to request them to stop. I didn't puke or pass out, but none of the blood they took was usable because it was in the machine when I tapped out. Oh well. * The 4th of July was a good one. I went to two cookouts and then worked 9-12:30. No arrests for pyrotechnics. * Today was Toby's last day in Oakland. He's going home for his sister's wedding and then going to Germany for some sort of classes/travel program. | | Thursday, July 2nd, 2009 | | 11:40 pm |
* I have weak fingernails in general and it only seems worse since I work three nights a week washing dishes at a local bar.
* My roommate left for Basic training in Missouri. He won't be back until October, I think. * Last night was the absolute midpoint of 2009. It passed without much fanfare; shouldn’t we be checking on our new year’s resolutions or taking stock in how the year has passed thus far? I celebrated by exercising again; with the exception of one afternoon playing beach volleyball, I’ve mostly sat around this summer. I don’t like feeling weak and lethargic. Also, I’ve become a fan of the show 30days from the guy who made “supersize me.” It occurred to me that there are precisely 30 days until Val’s wedding, so we’ll see how much/little I can improve on my personal strength/stamina by then. | | Monday, January 19th, 2009 | | 7:32 pm |

El Paso
It's been nearly two weeks since we rolled back into Pittsburgh at 4 am from our trip. So here's the story. Sunday, the 28th We left early from Oakland to drive to our friend's house up in Ohio. There was still a chance that we could convince her parents to let her make the trip with us, but they would not even hear us out. We watched the Steelers-Browns game (whoo!) and the Eagles-Cowboys game (whoo!) and bought groceries for the trip. Monday, the 29th Left early again, heading west, then south through Cincinnati. We stopped in Kentucky to have a picnic lunch at the Jim Beam Distillery. We stopped in Tennessee to buy fireworks from a wonderfully friendly woman named Phyllis. We were pretty strict about keeping 3-hour shifts to avoid fatigue and crankiness. Ate a late-night breakfast at a Waffle House in Little Rock, Arkansas and drove through the night across Arkansas and Texas. That was possibly the most boring driving I've ever done; speed limit of 70 and not a hill or curve in sight. Sunrise, Tuesday the 30th found us in West Texas; I never thought I'd be so happy to see some craggy little mountains. The first bit of wildlife we saw was a coyote, which may not have been quite as exciting if we hadn't been in a car for 25 hours. We reached El Paso city limits around 11 and immediately went to find showers and/or our campsite. We found our way around the city and eventually up to our campsite in the Franklin Mountains State Park. The city of El Paso is kind of built around this mountain range, so while the area we were in was very remote, we were never more than two minutes drive from a main artery of the city. We had another picnic lunch and decided to go for a bit of a hike around the state park. Maybe not the best decision considering our sleep and water deprivation, but it was really beautiful and we all wanted to get out and stretch our legs properly. After that, we heard back from our friend who is in the marching band offering us use of his hotel shower/pool. Which we gratefully accepted. The hotel was all decked out in support of Pitt with alumni and the marching band filling the hotel. We headed back to the state park at sunset to set up the tent and cook some dinner. Dinner was bratwurst, potatoes, and baked beans cooked on a charcoal grill. And it was delicious. We fell asleep by 7:30. Sometime in the middle of the night, a windstorm picked up and nearly blew the tent over. The next morning, Wednesday the 31st, we collected our clothes scattered by the wind and packed everything back up. We had breakfast in the sun bowl parking lot where we met a lot of interesting locals. The game started at noon and, well, I guess I don't have to tell you how that turned out. After the game, we just wanted to get out of town, so we headed north into New Mexico. We had intended to camp again that night, but it got later, darker, and colder as we drove up into the mountains. We ended up paying for a two bedroom suite in an inn in this little ski town called Cloudcroft. Most of us managed to stay up to ring in the new year in the mountain west timezone, but it was a decidedly tame new year's event. Thursday, the 1st, 2009: We capitalized on actually having beds and a shower and stayed late in the morning before heading out again. We drove straight through to Roswell, where we stopped to look at the UFO landing gift shops and such. It's a weird town. We drove through the day until we came to another state park just south of Amarillo, Texas. No rain and little wind, so we didn't bother trying to set up the tent. We cooked hotdogs and baked apples with the last of our charcoal. We heard a lot of coyotes that night, though. Got up before sunrise on Friday, the 2nd, and got back on the road, heading north and east up through the last of Texas and Oklahoma. We had talked about camping out again, but decided not to. Except for short detours in Missouri to see the World's Largest Rocking Chair and the Saint Louis Arch, we drove straight through the day and night to get back to Pittsburgh. I've mapped out our trip on Google Maps Here: http://tinyurl.com/sunbowltrip
According to Google: 3,833 mi – about 2 days 14 hours on the road | | Wednesday, October 15th, 2008 | | 12:49 am |

I found an interesting article with a misleading title. We painted over the graffiti in Toby/Paul/Nick's house. It took two coats of primer and two coats of house paint, but it's all gone. This is my fall break, which translates to "long weekend for no reason." I'm happy with the arraingement, though. I got to come home and visit my grandparents before the depart for Florida next week. They leave earlier and earlier each year. Saturday was mainly focused around football Texas/OU followed by Penn State/Wisconsin. I discovered that I am in the minority referring to Wisconsin as "Wiscy" ie "whisky." I also witnessed first hand why my family avoids watching football near my grandmother. Despite raising two boys to play football and marrying a football appreciater; she has very little understanding of the rules of the game and instead chooses to cheer for teams based on uniform aesthetics. Here is the best picture of the mustache situation. That picture is from last weekend, so it's even fuller and more impressive now. I should make a serious entry, detailing everything that's been goin' on, it it won't be tonight... 203 Panther 3805 University Drive Pittsburgh PA 15213 | | Sunday, September 28th, 2008 | | 6:30 pm |
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time...
So Friday night Toby and several people returned to Toby's apartment from a party. Someone decided it would be fun to spraypaint their living room using my crate of spraypaint that I was keeping there for my artsy impulsive moments. Paul and Nick were displeased to find their living room thus 'redecorated' when we returned. It was a tense evening, given the nature of the painting and the levels of intoxication of both sides. Both sides were appealing to me for sympathy. I left. I think they've just avoided the subject since then. How bad was the redecorating? Pretty terrible. They painted the walls and ceiling of the living room and bit in the hallway and bathroom. A large, grey "I ♥ SLUTS" in the hallway comes to mind. Also painted on some posters and Paul's rubber singing fish. I could appreciate a single wall or a door perhaps as the designated graffiti area, but this seems like absurd destruction of property. Destruction is really to harsh a term, but it will be a pain in the ass to buy house paint and cover up all of the spraypaint layed down that night. Graffiti should be thoughtful and clever and make people smile or at least reflect when they see it. Instead, too often it's merely a reminder of how quickly damage can be done with a can of spraypaint. It's kind of dissappointing. And they used up all of my paint. *sigh* At the party we stopped by last night, I overheard two people having this conversation: "Dude, watch out. That guy's a cop." "Who? Why? Are you sure?" "Dude, he has a mustache. Only cops have mustaches..." Which is to say; I've been told that I look a little like Burt Reynolds with my current facial hair situation. http://dsc.discovery.com/news/2008/05/15/rocket-man-alps.htmlhttp://dsc.discovery.com/news/2008/09/26/rocket-man.html
Some days I have a strong urge to take my pack and just walk out into the woods. Sadly, I have class tomorrow and there are no "woods" really nearby. | | Thursday, September 25th, 2008 | | 9:00 pm |
I had a dream that I was starting work at a McDonald's outside of Oakland. My manager was upset that I was a few minutes late, but seemed impressed that I brought my own watermelon? Pitt is 2 and 1. Our loss coming from Bowling Green in our first game. Sarah is coming to visit on the 3rd. Ironically, there's another concert here that weekend. Wittgenstein is frustrating me. I'm on an intramural volleyball team. We're called the sex panthers. Toby and I designed and silk screened t shirts for our uniforms. I have a key to Toby, Paul, and Nick's house. | | Monday, September 1st, 2008 | | 5:00 pm |
Weekend
A few things in roughly chronological order: My friend/former roommate is now a certified bartender. This is awesome. I'm trying to get a workstudy job in the theatre department building and painting sets. We'll see; the Technical director likes me, but there's a lot of competition for that spot. I was drafted onto an Intramural Volleyball team for this fall by Toby's downstairs neighbor Kari. I'm really excited to be playing again. I think she's excited to have found some people who actually know the sport. I hope we can all get together and practice some basic defense before the "season" starts. Pitt lost in spectacular fashion to Bowling Green. The enthusiasm and optimism than ran rampant since the backyard brawl last year has been called into question. I still intend to go to every home game I can, but the ego of the student body has been palpably deflated. I discovered that some of my friends are lame football fans; leaving before halftime? Seriously? We were WINNING at that point! Also witnessed the perils of combining intoxication and heatstroke.
Helped host an America Party at Toby, Paul, and Nick's house. Hosting parties can be fun and profitable, if you're smart about it.
Watched American History X (which was very good) and ate cheese from Trinidad (which was also very good, but doesn't keep long because of the lack of preservatives).Slept on the back porch of Toby's house in my hammock; had pancakes in the morning. Apparently Joe Biden was downtown for the parade earlier today. Four of my friends and I are going to see the Fratellis tomorrow. My mom and youngest brother are also driving out for the show. It promises to be aweome. It bothers me when people admonish others for not going to class. They like to bring out the "you're paying for a service and then not using it" argument. (Tuition + Room & Board) / Credits per semester * (Credits per class/ classes per semester) = "wasted" money per class period missed/skipped. But that's not what you're paying for at all. You're paying the university to stand behind you when, in the future, you declare that you 'learned something.' Your grade in the class represents the University's confidence and commitment to vouch that you understand the material. Notice that actual knowledge of the subject is not a requirement. It is just as easy to imagine one who knows greek mythology inside and out, but got a D in a class on the subject (lack of attentiveness on assignments, illness, philosphical disagreement with the professor) as it is to imagine someone who got and A in Astronomy but would fail to tell you what our sun is made of. Now dispite this disparity, the University still chooses to judge it's students by grade point average. Why? The respect and accrediation of the University depends upon the individuals that they vouch for actually performing after graduation. Although there is no causal reason that GPA correlates with actual knowledge it must be a statistically safe bet for the institution. In addition, GPA represents something more to potential future employers, partcularly in business. It represents the student's ability or willingness to thrive within a system. The system has clear rules and specific requirements it asks for. Inability or unwillingness to work within such a system does not foreshadow coheisive intergration or performance within a business heirarchy. From the business' perspective, differentiating between inability and unwillingness is rarely worth the time and energy. Current Music: The Fratellis | | Wednesday, August 27th, 2008 | | 2:32 pm |
Indo-European Folktales: Is pretty cool. The brothers grimm. Jewish mysticism. Celtic and norse myth. Hindu epics. I think I remarked to Eric about a professor I had seen around the cathedral who seemed like his future. While I'm not sure I still think that, he does tend to stand out on campus. Long salt-n-pepper hair, coffee addiction, a kind of high academia intesity to his gaze. I mused on what he taught; classics? Math? Well it turns out he's running half of the discussion groups for this indo european folktales class, including mine. Somehow I think he can't live up to the eccentricities I've imagined.
Magic, Medicine, And Science: more of a history class on the origins of modern science. modern science essentially developed from practices that we consider decidedly un-scientific. Astrology, Alchemy, greek, arabic, and jewish mystic traditions. Lots of classical reading. I'm pretty excited for it.
American Political Process: pretty generic gen-ed taught be a grad student. I'm a little disappointed.
Religion in India: Seems like fun. Trying to paint a wholistic picture of the religious landscape of the subcontinent.
Problems in Philosophy of Religion: Is going to be awesome. Wrestling with Wittgenstein. And Kant. It's a philosophical inquiry into the seemingly conflicting claims of truth by various religious traditions. Probably the most challenging reading list I've ever had and a great teacher.
http://www.streetlightmanifesto.com/int/mp3/2.mp3 is a great song. Walking out of both my philosophy of religion class and folktales classes, the lyrics kind of sprang unbidden to my mind. Off a good album, too. Streetlight Manifesto is giving away 9 of their songs (just change the url to numbers 1-9.mp3) if you're interested.
I feel like the democratic national convention doesn't need to be televised in its entirety. The news to fluff ratio doesn't justify it. But then, this could slip into a critique of the entire 24hour news media machine which would be just like complaining about the tides.

it's been a while
I've been in Pittsburgh for a week. Class starts tomorrow. I've been busy with RSA planning and events as well as catching up with everyone. It's odd having all of your friends in apartments. I didn't realize how accustomed I was to living with certain people. Toby and Dan are way down in South Oakland. It will be different living so far away from those guys. No more spontaneous midnight nintendo tournaments or spraypainting. This living arrangement is generally ill-suited for my artistic compulsions. It's a little too nice, really. Bruce was similarly spacious, but had a very lived-in feel with out being dirty. This building is like a hotel. Unblemished homogeneous rooms. New furniture in matching sets. The contrast between my building and the unique, abused apartments with their potpourri of well-worn furniture my friends are renting is certainly stark. And I have air-conditioning, which they do not. I suppose I'm still living with relative strangers and the building itself is only 4 years old, so this feeling is to be expected for a while at least. I realize that never gave a proper description of Timberlock. I was waiting for a quiet moment to reflect on the whole experience. But quiet moments seem to be rare and my attention tends to wander too quickly.

Adirondack Employment
I've been back in state college for almost a month. I left to see Eddie Izzard in Ohio and to go to a conference in Oklahoma, but most of the time I was around here. Which really isn't all that long, but just long enough to get comfortable. I have my room with my stuff finally unpacked. I have my days free of most obligations. I have a sweet girlfriend only a few minutes drive away. But I also have a job in the Adirondacks starting this weekend. I job I describe as "an opportunity" that I've been "really excited for." And while those descriptions are certainly accurate, I think I stayed in state college too long for the transition to be as painless as I'd originally hoped. I don't know what kind of internet access I'm going to have up there; I'm intrigued by the prospect of no access for that many weeks. Regardless, those of you with the time, penmanship, and motivation to write to me could send it to Kyle McPherson Timberlock P.O.
