Into the Arctic!

I attempted to begin reading the 1,070 page coursepack for my SOC212 class...since I'm supposed to be 70 pages in by Tuesday...yeah, it wasn't entirely successful. Considering it's by Weber...and is translated...and is titled "The Theory of Social and Economic Organization: The Types of Authority and Imperative Co-ordination" makes it difficult to get through. I don't know what it's saying...nor am I quite certain how it connects to Sports and Society (the title of the class). Probably about governing bodies in the sporting world or something...who knows. I suppose we'll find out eventually! Eeeek. All these classes I think will be so fun...first astro, now this. 1,070 page course pack and three 300 page books. So fantastic.

Upon exiting Noodles & Co. this evening with an enthusiastic "Into the Arctic!" we opened the door and lo and behold, walking along was a couple of Eskimos! In other words, two people wearing those giant puffy coats with the fur around the hood happened to be walking by the Noods Establishment while we were leaving...bahaha. Comical. Slightly inappropriate. I suppose the correct term would be Inuit, would it not?

Ended the night with a healthy dose of The World's Strongest Man Competition on ESPN. I personally was rooting for the man from Poland, Sir Mariusz Pudzianowski. Sans the 'Sir' of course, it just sounds a bit more professional in my expert opinion. He completed the Giant Farmer Carry (or something) like a CHAMP. Blew the competition out of the water. Whew. Pulled that plane like it was nobody's business...and even yanked a rather heavy boat out of the water onto a very steep ramp. So entertaining. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Although I'm wondering where the rest of the world was...very few countries were represented, and I'm well aware that this was the finals, but about half of the dudes were from the US, then there was a Pole, a Lithuanian, annnd a few others maybe...I don't know. Oh someone from England...annnd...eh, not important. Oh well.
