Some pics

Last night I skipped meeting the prospective grad students for next year in favor of kicking the football around with our intramural team after our game. I snapped some pics, and quickly realized I need to figure out a better way to snap action shots. Here's the best of them:





I clearly need to shorten my exposure. I was using the "sports" macro, but that clearly didn't do the trick. Also it was really tough to frame the shots to begin with, as the zoom changes pretty slowly.

Anyhow, we lost again, but Paulo, one of the postdocs in my lab, and one of the coolest guys I've met here at Penn, came out last night and really tore up the field (he's the blue blur in the bottom two pics). He's also supposed to be an incredible tennis player, so Lynn and I are hoping to get him on the courts when it gets a tad warmer.

Tomorrow I'll be in Jersey in the morning helping Leorah out at the horse farm, then I might hook up with Dan for a bike ride that afternoon. He has some crazy idea involving bows and arrows. I'm not really clear on the details but I'm pretty sure it will end in injury or death. We'll see.
