So - first trip to Seattle went very well… I had a great time and I really liked the city. Something cool about being able to get coffee on any corner that isn’t “fourbucks”…

Brit and I had a good time at the Google Hack-a-thon, although we both have decided that App Engine still has a lot of growing to do. The guys at Google mentioned that they’re going to eventually support languages other than Python so we’re probably going to hold off on developing Brave New Fiction further until they start supporting PHP.

Lots on my plate for the next couple of weeks so I’ll be posting less frequently - but here’s something I will do - play-by-play fantasy football. Jaime and I have won our money league the last two years in a row (thanks to a quick thinking Romo pickup and Tom Brady’s amazing year). So - in our 14 team league we picked 6th this year and here’s who we ended up with:

Tony Romo
Vince Young
Joseph Addai
Lendale White
Matt Forte
LaMont Jordan
Andre Johnson
Calvin Johnson
Anthony Gonzalez
Donte’ Stallworth
Chris Henry
Brandon Stokley
Dwayne Jarrett
Donald Lee
Mason Crosby
Philly Defense

I tried like hell to land another Johnson at receiver but both of em got swept up before our pick… Surprised that Addai fell to us at 6th (a guy in our league took Stephen Jackson @ 2) and we traded our 3rd and 5th to get Romo (could’ve had Reggie Bush and Chris Chambers). My roommate actually had the 14th pick (our draft is serpentine) and ended up picking Randy Moss and Terrell Owens back to back… the room let out a collective ~gasp~.

Oh well - we’ll see how we do - playing on house money for the next ten years anyway.
