Thoughts from the Nasty Nati

I'm in Cincinnati for a family reunion/awesome 50th wedding anniversary. My aunt and uncle have been married for over twice as long as I've been alive! That's just incredible. It's really a sobering thought to see how much devotion they have to each other. It's also fun to see family together for even a short time.

Other thought

• There was a Mass for the wedding anniversary. It was a traditional Catholic Mass, and there was a huge emphasis on Mary. It was interesting, but I wasn't a huge fan.
• However, the idea of piety within their church is really impressive. They have a reverence for God.
  
• Illinois won today. I didn't get to see it, but it was convincing. 41-20 over Syracuse.
  
• Notre Dame lost today...good riddance to The Man.
• I just watched Alabama tug a victory away from Arkansas. That's classic college football. Sooooo good.
• Tomorrow the Packers play the Giants. The Giants are without their starting quarterback, and instead have Jared Lorenzen. He's a big dude, but I'm excited to see us play him tough.
• USC might have established themselves as number one. They are whopping up on Nebraska. LSU and USC are gonna be interesting to follow.
  
• On Friday, I had a FANTASTIC day. Spending time with the Lord just putting posters on campus at the U of I. It was a very fulfilling experience.
• Saw an iPod Nano 3G at the Apple Store in Champaign too. It was really neat. SOOOO tiny, and the screen is really big for such a tiny MP3 player. The downfall...the clickwheel is straight TINY!
• I still wanna see an iPod Touch. It's currently the coolest gadget in my eyesight.
