It probably has been 20 years since I've played it with my kids. I think you can land on an opponent's piece and they have to go back home. And you have to have an exact roll to make it to the finish. That's all I remember.
KALISPELL, MT – For a second straight night, a rocky first inning punished the Oakland Ballers who dropped their second in a row to the Glacier Range Riders by a final score of 13-1 on Wednesday night from Glacier Bank Park.
Since franchise legend Buster Posey took over as president of baseball operations for the San Francisco Giants, he’s preached one thing. Well, he’s preached many things, but one has stood taller than the rest: pitching and defense.
Pitching and defense, just as the ballpark was built for.
Shohei Ohtani continued to dazzle on the mound, and the Dodgers gave him plenty of early run support as they shut out the Arizona Diamondbacks 7-0 on Wednesday.
I actually woke up around 3:55 AM and watched an inning or two before falling asleep. Not sure how you can't say he's the best of all time. Babe played with plumbers and carpenters.
I do wish I was able to get into EECS. I got deferred enrollment into ME so I imagine I would've been rejected if I applied to EECS. Though I guess at the time I wanted to do aero engineering and Cal didn't have it so I did ME because air is a fluid.
Maybe I got the number wrong—was it EECS 100AB? I had Schwartz, coauthor of the textbook. For the analog class. Had someone else for the digital class. I think.
Hmm...good question. It was just 1 semester and I think was basic circuits. Maybe it wasn't 100. I guess it's intro so maybe EECS 1?
I always felt as an ME, I was required to take EECS 100(?), some CE statics class, E28 engineering drawing, and one other class so I thought I was the most prepared for the EIT. I remember at EBMWU two of the CS people I was friends with struggled with the EIT because you weren't required to take statics and other classes that are required for the EIT.
I was on quarter system so 2 classes. But it was also the same EECS class that MEs take, so I was one of the few nonMEs. Turned out to be very good background for graduate school work in ME. Never took EIT though, since it seemed to have no connection to bioengineering.

DBD Lunch
Went out to have Risotto Cacio e Pepe along with some focaccia and Caprese. Was fine for a lunch item.
Sorry
I remember playing that game a lot decades ago. Now I don't even remember how it was played!
It probably has been 20 years since I've played it with my kids. I think you can land on an opponent's piece and they have to go back home. And you have to have an exact roll to make it to the finish. That's all I remember.
Been playing a lot with my daughter. It’s fun. You can be almost ready to win…and then someone Sorrys you!

Knicks win. Come back for 10 ish points a couple times.
Went to a bar in NYC to watch the game. Great atmosphere.
A friend went to the MSG watch party
I fly in Monday around 2 so maybe we should meet up with No 1 and find a place to watch.
Ballers drop second in a row to Range Riders (Ballers lose 13-1)

Old school cool (Giants beat the Brew Crew 1-0)
Pitching, defense, and just enough offense.

That's actually 2 things, but they usually require each other to be successful.
Shohei Ohtani tosses six scoreless innings in shutout win over D-backs

Stayed up late to watch him. He is just masterful right now.

FLOP things….
Forgot to mention the other day, EECS 101 was where I first did problem sets about flip-flops.
I do wish I was able to get into EECS. I got deferred enrollment into ME so I imagine I would've been rejected if I applied to EECS. Though I guess at the time I wanted to do aero engineering and Cal didn't have it so I did ME because air is a fluid.
I wasn’t in EECS either, but 101 was a required class for bioengineering.
I wound up doing biofluidmechanics, and spent a lot of my career with aero people.
I think I did EECS 100 which was circuits not hardware. It was a great class though.
Maybe I got the number wrong—was it EECS 100AB? I had Schwartz, coauthor of the textbook. For the analog class. Had someone else for the digital class. I think.
Hmm...good question. It was just 1 semester and I think was basic circuits. Maybe it wasn't 100. I guess it's intro so maybe EECS 1?
