Tourney time bubs

Now is your time to prove that you are smarter than me. I created an online place to predict the NCAA tournament. Anyone is free to join as long as they are not a nerd. You need a free Yahoo ID to play. Here's the site: http://tournament.fantasysports.yahoo.com/men



The group number is 25428

The password is platypi

The group name is Treebeard



The winner gets an all expense paid* trip to see the bubs (*does not include expenses). Some have already signed up... Brett, how on earth did Rachel sign up like two days ago, and you still haven't. I think somebody's scared of getting shown up. That's what I think.



Here are my predictions for the Mountain West Conference Tournament.



I jinxed BYU by picking them to win it last year, so I'll go with the home team. I would like to see a team that doesn't wear red win one somewhere along the line. Mountain West teams need to get more creative with thier colors instead of copying each other.

Other notes of interest... I found a bag of circus peanuts downstairs in Natalie's room. Needless to say, they'll be gone soon.

Dessert Bubs

I hope I spelled the title right. No worries, some one will let me know if I spelt it wrong. I ran across this video today. Thought it was funny/clever




We had an ice cream party for all students on our team of 120 kids who passed all four team classes. (Team classes consist of Math, English, Science, and History)

Of our 120 students we have in common, only 25 were able to attend the ice cream party. While the other teachers were compaining about how only 25 were able to make it to the party, I was wondering if there's a better dessert in the world than ice cream. The conclusion I reached was no. Any dessert that I was thinking was better had ice cream already in it as it's main ingredient. Therefore, ice cream is the best dessert in the world.

So beside ice cream and ice cream related desserts, here's a list of the best desserts out there.

14-Frosty From Wendy's (I don't think it's made of ice cream)
13-Strawberry Shortcake
12-Chocolate Cinnamon Bears
11-Cinnamon Toast
10-Apple Pie
9-Pudding
8-Banana Cream Pie
7-Chocolate Chip Cookies
6-Chocolate dipped fruit (strawberries, bananas etc.)
5-Carmel Apples
4-Chocolate Cake
3-Cheesecake
2-Fudge
1-S'mores

I'd have to say that I was surprised how low on the list Apple Pie was, but it makes sense when you remember that ice cream can't be involved.

I think if there were a list of worst desserts, it would be led off by Rhubarb Pie. Not a big fan of the Rhubarb... of course I only tried it once when I was 7, but those memories can be a powerful thing.
