I think I've found my calling. While science has been a nearly all consuming ordeal for nearly 7 years now, I've felt empty. I've tried to fill that void in the past; I drifted from pool and shuffle board, to softball, to online chess and risk, only to realize the void remains. Well, I'm happy to report that I have found it, competitive RPS. In my first two events I've done pretty good, placing 3rd and 1st, with the first prize netting me a pretty nifty 60 dollar prize, enough to cover my PBRs and cab fare home. Well these showings have just wet my appetite for the 2008 PBR-Philadelphia-RPS-City-League-Championship-Series, which starts up next week. I'm gunning for rookie of the year honors, or perhaps the top team prize with my crew, the Paper Cut Posse. We'll see how the season shapes up. Needless to say, I've been practicing. Which is pretty awkward to explain to Rachel when she wonders what I'm doing in the bathroom for hours on end. 
Expect more updates about the season (or, equally as likely, expect this to slowly run its course like chess, shuffle board, pool, and softball).

How is the RPS going, Russ? No more posts - does that mean the competition is heating up? How's Rachel handling the pressure?
Shuffle board ran its course? I thought the old team was just on hiatus. Team Tiger will rise again! Right?
