I went to the reception desk thing to get an ice pack...they went up in a cupboard and gave me this plastic bag icepack thing that was room temperature. I looked at her kind of weird...she smiled and said "it's a magic icepack". It's one of those ones where it's two compartments inside the bag, and when you squeeze the top one down so it bursts into the bottom pouch, it instantly becomes ice cold. Was very cool. Literally, also.
I am easily impressed.Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

that's a bit peculiar... I don't know how socc..football is played in those distant lands over there, but isn't it pretty common to get injured from time to time while playing the game?
I can barely count the number of scars on my legs caused by other players, concrete floors, etc...!! (then again i'm not a math wonder).
maybe it's indoor football? I could imagine because no physical contact is allowed there"An archaeologist is the best husband a women can have; the older she gets, the more interested he is in her." - Agatha Christie

Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - Epicurus
