Amazon Had A Sale
December 19, 2012
It's the first day of winter break. And yes, I historically do nothing on the first day of any break. It's a transitional period where I can adjust to getting up later than 5:30am and not being in charge of other people.
Amazon delivered this package yesterday.
Perfect timing.

Schooling Youngbloods
December 18, 2012
Everything you need to know about the basketball team could be summed up by our 3-on-3 tournament. Every kid on my team is faster, stronger and taller than me. So, how on Earth did the coaches team dominate this tournament?
Experience.
We set screens, passed the ball, and made open layups.
We also didn't do anything stupid.
Why was my 6'2" post guy playing point guard?
Why did the kid with the best dribble drive settle for 30 foot shots?
Why did the most athletic girl in the gym not school the coaches off the dribble? Or make us chase her while she drained 3's?
Listen to your elders.
It would have kept these Youngbloods from getting schooled.
Isn't this Slate article making the same point as Chris Rock?

Our basketball team reminds me of Javale McGee. Lots of potential and occasional flashes of brilliance. But most of the time it's super frustrating to watch him play like he just discovered basketball yesterday.

This day reminded me why I love working with kids.
Because adults are super boring.
Though, these adults are pretty great.

This guy was already a millionaire, then won the lottery jackpot, then went nuts. Strip clubs, drugs and getting his granddaughter addicted to crack followed. Crazy stuff.
“Life really begins when you have discovered that you can do anything you want.”
“There is an ugliness in being paid for work one does not like,” Anaïs Nin wrote in her diary in 1941. Indeed, finding a sense of purpose and doing what makes the heart sing is one of the greatest human aspirations — and yet too many people remain caught in the hamster wheel of unfulfilling work. In 1949, career counselor William J. Reilly penned How To Avoid Work (UK; public library) — a short guide to finding your purpose and doing what you love. Despite the occasional vintage self-helpism of the tone, the book is remarkable for many reasons — written at the dawn of the American corporate era and the golden age of the housewife, it not only encouraged people of all ages to pursue their passions over conventional, safe occupations, but it also spoke to both men and women with equal regard.
Kevin Love deserves to be an all-star. Steve Nash might get in based on reputation (he's been hurt most of this year). None of these other guys should even sniff the all-star roster.

If Seinfeld was still going on, these are exactly the types of stories that would happen.
Jerry goes on @jimmyfallon. The Roots play "Drops of Jupiter" when he
comes out. Jerry becomes obsessed with figuring out why.
Jerry discovers Newman is secretly an Internet famous fan
fiction writer. George gets aroused reading 50 Shades of Gray, questions
self.
Bania steals jokes from Jerry's tweets. George lies on @foursquare to avoid his parents.
Kramer leads the less popular #Kony2013 campaign.
This is our basketball team.
The potential is there, but we just can't quite put it together.

In the process of moving, I fell WAY behind on the blog. Normally, I post links to all of these things, maybe upload a video or two, check my twitter feed for great stories of the day, then think of a "clever" title. I'll never catch up if I do that. So I'm just going to punt these three weeks and post the drafts. Jalen Rose always says "It's not my job to do your research. Google it." So if you're really interested in a link, just google it. I'm sure you can find it. I believe in you.

Waiting for Superman
I saw a screening of this at SIFF a few years ago. The director held a Q&A after the movie. Someone in the crowd asked if the director hated teachers. That was a profoundly stupid question. The whole point of the movie is that good teachers are the answer. The question posed by the movie is, "Why does the system make it so hard to find and keep good teachers?"
I bought this headlamp at REI last year. I was going to buy a cheaper model, but the guy kind of insisted that this was the one I wanted. He works for REI, so I knew he wasn't trying to trick me. This probably was the headlamp I wanted. He was right.
