Oh wow!!
I thought the GSW were the presumptive champions. What happened?

Back from the woods for the first time in a couple of weeks. Boat ride today was an adventure... not looking forward to the next one. Imagine being in open seas crammed into a wooden boat the size of a motor boat, with just some stinkin' evenruud motor puttering away going against 40 mph trade winds...

Umm... I had six more points... despite having made my picks three weeks ago, including one Boris Said. How was I to know in the middle of a Malagasy forest that Boris Said was not entered on a road course?!

Unfortunately, I am not in the woods right now, as I had to get a wound under one of my toenails cleaned up. Good news is that it is not a fungus, and I should be okay to hike in 2-3 days.

8kg in 7 days of surveying... that's 17.6 lbs. Umm, that's no joke. That's just how physical this work has been. It always happens when I survey (go into forests and count lemurs), as we are often going to remote areas that require that we buy and eat local. And the physical work is long distance hi...

Egads... I should stay in the woods. WOW!
Still eleventy billion points behind Ymo.

Does this mean that we can expect you to participate in the NASCAR CrazieTalk Fantasy League?

Seriously, way cool!! CONGRATS!!

I am not in a jungle... I'll soon be in the woods.
And if it wasn't for Carl Edwards collapsing in the race, I'd have gained ground on Fearless Leader (Ymo).

I'm over here again after a six-year hiatus. Here is what I will be doing: 1) Trying to record behavioral observations of a threatened population of crowned lemurs and Sanford's lemurs. 2) Perhaps taking in a few pineapple Fantas. 3) Perhaps commenting about life from afar. 4) Steadily declining in ...

Madagascar's own Three Horses Beer (reviewed at some point in my life, but figured it was 210 plus pages ago on this thread, so why not mention it again) A crisp Pilsener, served cold from a bomber. Very smooth, low hop content, clear, yellow, nice head in simple Malagasy glasses on a warm 80 degree...

So ... I bought a house today. Really it's a duplex, 2 bed/2 bath/2 car garage. Perfect size for me. It all happened pretty quickly. Available real estate on the island is somewhat limited right now, especially with the features I wanted. The other places I liked were far pricier. So, when I found ...

At 185 pts, I think I had the lowest-scoring win in recorded CrazieTalk Fantasy League history. Amazing how the field dwindled down so much. It almost became a Talladega Nights/Ricky Bobby ending.
I'm almost done with my Ricky Stenhouse, Jr allotment.

Dega news: Lap 55: Dale Jr's car got loose and piled into the wall. He's okay, but the car is in the garage. I doubt he'll be back in the race. Also note that he piled into Kahne and DeBenedetto, who both got extensive damage as well. Kahne is in the garage too.

Note: EVERYONE chose Dale Jr.

So, does this open the door for greater issues with the Southern Association? I seriously doubt it. From what I understand, they have 3 choices: a warning, probation and suspension/de-accreditation. A warning is spineless, their probation could be extended but who really gives a shit about that as ...

Carl Edwards bumped teammate Blech out of the way on the final turn, and stole the race.
Ymo wins again.

Boogety, boogety, boogety... let's go racing, boys!

And now Kenseth is in the garage. So much for my chance at a good day!

Yes, but Kyle Busch is now out of the race (just over halfway done).
Maybe there is hope for me after all!

Good morning!!
