College Tourney Day 1

Don't expect a daily update...

I'm glad to see that I did fairly well with my bracket choices on the first day of the NCAA Tournament. I managed to select each winner correctly, except for 1. I had to go with school pride and choose BYU over Texas A&M. You may not believe me, but I really thought in my mind that BYU would lose because they do every year...

Although I did fill out a bracket and checked it this morning, I'm not a huge March Madness fan. Of course it's cool to be able to watch over 60 basketball games in a few weeks, but as mentioned on abigjuicyvan.blogspot.com college players lack the skill to make the games truly exciting.

I think that I like March Madness for a different reason than anyone else. I like it because I can sit back and watch brick after brick and say, "I can do that. I do that all of the time." I feel like a great basketball player after watching shabby play for 2 hours.

Good rule of thumb. If you want to see good basketball (like I do) , watch the pros. If you want to feel good about yourself, join in on the madness....(with me).

Hey Everybody,

Here is a video that my lab group made last week. It's of a water balloon popping. We had to film at 12,000 frames per second to get this shot. It's pretty amazing how the balloon just gets pulled off from around the water. The water kind of sticks to the rubber too. It's just a cool video. Enjoy!
