Sweet Sixteen Shenanigans

Watching UK beat UofL in Indianapolis

In the euphoric moments after Kentucky’s amazing victory over the 35-0 Shockers of Wichita State, I started texting with some friends about getting tickets for the sweet sixteen in Indianapolis. I must’ve refreshed stubhub.com and guyonthecornertickets.com about a thousand times that Sunday evening looking for tickets. By Monday night, we had secured 4  seats in section 434 for $175 each.

Spelunking the Android Developer Guide

Until a few weeks ago, I had never spent much time in the android developer docs. I’ve always used Titanium or PhoneGap (or, in the glory days, native webOS) when building mobile apps, so I’ve never really needed much from the android docs.
