The not so dramatic entrance of Daniel’s debate partner

AlexM — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 20:45:41 +0000

Hello everyone! I definately did not write 85% brief in the 48 hours before this tournament. They’ve been spent, being sick, printing briefs, and getting ready for the tournament in other ways. Anyways, this tournament is going to be a ton of fun, and I’ll be back on here for my second post when it’s over!

Dramatic Entrance

They say 85% of all debate briefs are written in the 48 hours before a tournament. Let me correct that: 85% of all debate briefs are written in the 48 hours before a tournament, unless you have an expos to finish.

Howdy, I’m an author here now! Two things:

- For all your last-minute research, check out Factsmith.

- If anyone has a good idea of a mildly silly, simple thing to put up on an expos board to represent the internet, please tell!

Un-Pragmatism

For some reason, I believe that every single post must have some kind of purpose.

Maybe I should be more idealistic. LDers, got any input?

So, I’m going to just do it anyway… this is a totally meaningless, unpragmatic post. Get over it. All I’m going to say is:

Hi.

Yeah… Hi. That’s it. I won’t say anything else.

…

uhh….

I’m serious.

You don’t believe me, hu? I really am not going to say anything more than “hi.” So, why are you still reading? Seriously. Stop. Now. I mean it.

:Sigh: Some people just don’t listen.’

So… uh… Hi.

Grace.

Hi y’all! I’ve been graciously added to ARCblogs, so this is my post to say ‘hey’. I sort of ‘introduced’ myself at ARC last week, but I failed to tell you guys how happy I am to be part of NCFCA this year, and how awesome I think y’all are! I hope we’ll get to know each other better over the course of the next couple of tournaments!

Auf weidersehen,
~Grace

New Blog….

Hey everyone….

I just wanted to check this out. See how it works and all that jazz. And yes, I know I’m not thinking in complete sentences this morning. Something about staying up till 11:30 watching “Independence Day” does that to you.

Anyway, I hope you guys all have a Merry Christmas

Alex
