My car order for an Infiniti G35 6MT Lakeshore Blue exterior with Stone Leather interior has been made. It is expected to arrive mid April. Very exciting.
A place for the Everett Family. Used for family news, random bits of interesting stuff found via the Internet, Monkey Friday, Left Hand Alert and whatever we decide to post.

So Close...
I have a couple of goals for the bowling season:
- At least one 200 game
- At least one 500 series
Last night I came close but didn't accomplish either of them.
First game: only a single open frame in the eighth. I had good ball speed last night. Wasn't overthrowing the ball, though overthrowing was my downfall in the eighth frame and left the 5-10 split. For a final score of 191
Second game: 172
Third game: Struggled all game, ended up with a 136. Had an open frame in the tenth, left another split and proceeded to not hit either pin. Would come to "haunt" me when I added up the scores.
Series for the week: 499
New average after this week: 145

Personality Numbers
A very interesting article via nytimes.com: Brainman, at Rest in His Oasis
My favorite part:
But he still speaks of numbers with affection and says that for him they have individual personalities, particularly the smaller ones. The number four, for instance, is shy, and reminds him of himself; nines are scary and imposing. Ones are shiny and bright, eights are blue, fives are loud, and 333 is beautiful.
Giving personality and colors to numbers is a form of synesthesia. Just another reminder to me about how amazing the brain really is.
How someone with synesthesia might perceive (not "see") certain letters and numbers.

Obsessively Listening To This Song
I saw this band (Barenaked Ladies) in concert a couple of months ago, they put on a great show. If you get a chance, you should definitely see them.
The song: "If I Had A Million Dollars"
