Here's a laugh for the day...
For some time many of us have wondered just who is Jack Schitt? We find ourselves at a loss when someone says, 'You don't know Jack Schitt'! Well, thanks to my genealogy efforts, you can now respond in an intellectual way.
Jack Schitt is the only son of Awe Schitt. Awe Schitt, the fertilizer magnate, who married O. Schitt, the owner of Needeep N. Schitt, Inc. They had one son, Jack.
In turn, Jack Schitt married Noe Schitt. The deeply religious couple produced six children: Holie Schitt, Giva Schitt, Fulla Schitt, Bull Schitt, and the twins Deep Schitt and Dip Schitt. Against her parents' objections, Deep Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a high school dropout.
After being married 15 years, Jack and Noe Schitt divorced. Noe Schitt later married Ted Sherlock , and because her kids were living with them, she wanted to keep her previous name. She was then known as Noe Schitt Sherlock.
Meanwhile, Dip Schitt married Loda Schitt , and they produced a son with a rather nervous disposition named Chicken Schitt.
Two of the other six children, Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt, were inseparable throughout childhood and subsequently married the Happens brothers in a dual ceremony. The wedding announcement in the newspaper announced the Schitt-Happens nuptials. The Schitt-Happens children were Dawg, Byrd , and Horse.
Bull Schitt, the prodigal son, left home to tour the world. He recently returned from Italy with his new Italian bride, Pisa Schitt.
Now when someone says, 'You don't know Jack Schitt ', you can correct them.
Sincerely,
Crock O. Schitt

HOLY CRAP!!!! either crap is getting to be holy, or i'm just plum crazy
so i've been busy! the last thing i remember is waking up to my alarm clock sometime in june... it's all been a flutter since then! i'm pretty sure i went hiking with genevieve one, maybe two weeks ago... i have some pictures to prove it. we went to donut falls, played in the water, played around, then went to twin lake. twin lake was nice as it was reminscent of our first hike where i "opened up" to gen... that was the start of our friendship and it was all a big adventure after that! here are some pics of our hiking:
Then i'm pretty sure i went to a tournament in jackson hole... we didn't play that great on saturday, but we stepped it up on sunday and lost to missoula in the finals 11-15. i skied skyla, their wnba super athlete woman, to catch the disc in our endzone and score!! i also laid out (going for a defensive block) ONTO her one time... what can i say, she got in my way! the drunk sidelines loved it... i'm a crowd pleaser, apparantly! it was a way fun tournament! mom fed me and several of my teammates on the drive back through IF. which reminds me, i'm supposed to thank you a million more times mom. a million... hopefully this'll do!!
Then i wasn't even home for 8 hours from this jackson tournament before i needed to repack up and move genevieve to virginia! i took my camera with me on this trip, but i did not take any photos... go me... suffice it to say: wyoming is boring, nebraska is long and smelly, missouri is hot but more entertaining than nebraska, plus they have st louis, yes we stopped at the arch, kentucky is pretty and green, oh, indiana was fun, virginia is gorgeous but has NO mountains... day 1: 13 hours drive time. we listened to all of my ipod turned up really loud because we had the windows down most of the day so as to drown out the very whiny cat... that was fun... day 2: 12 hours drive time. fyi- 4 pringles, terrible duck impersonations and random people passed can keep 2 girls entertained for 2 hours. we thought we were hilarious! day 3: 7 hours drive time. sarah's starting to go crazy... i braided my hair... all of it... for 3 hours... i may post a picture later... day 4: 3 hours drive time. i meowed back at the cat for about an hour... that was fun... helped gen move in to her cute little house! day 5: 45 minutes drive time, 7 hour flight time, 2 hour layover time. left gen in virginia, flew home. bye gen!! it's been fun! good luck in school!
coached my highschool frisbee team. they call me coach! it's so cool!! came home, sat down on my bed and haven't moved since.
so that's my life up to date! hope you kept up!

I'm Amazing
Here's why:
well, besides the usual lovable, adorable, totally incredible reasons...
1- i rapelled a waterfall on friday with genevieve. it wasn't anything grand, dangerous, high or technical. it was just fun! you rapel off a tree then someone has set up anchors around a boulder a little more than halfway down. the first part, your feet are just in the water... well, unless you're me and your feet keep slipping and you butt plant into the rocks and water... then your butt gets wet too... the second part is more verticle so your legs are completely submerged and the rest of you gets splashed on. it was quite exhilerating and refreshing at the same time!
my rope is finally dry!
2- this past saturday and sunday was the park city ski town classic (frisbee tournament). out of five games played on saturday (pool play) we lost one... to missoula... they were the toughest team there, granted they only showed up with 6 players, they picked up a couple of random players while at the tournament... they're still a good team! anyway... we lost to them on saturday. so we went 4-1 saturday. on sunday, we finished the pool play, won that game and advanced straight to semis. we beat them 11-5ish and were up to play missoula again in the finals. missoula took halftime with a score of 7-4. and it was a little breezy... remember, we suck in the wind... but not yesterday!!! holy crap! practically everyone had amazing plays (my favorite plays to be described in #3)... it was a game to 13 win by 2. missoula had us at 12-9. trevor had an amazing layout d, phil had an unbelievable rundown catch in the endzone, damen had an amazing grab, simon skied someone in the endzone... just to name a few!! so anyway, to make a long story short, we went on a five point run and beat missoula in the finals 14-12. several of our women got injured (ankles and such) so we only had 4 women the second half... being uninjured, i played a lot...
3- i got the john neil award! the john neil award is this way ghetto "trophy" that has been with the team for years. it gets passed around every tournament to whoever the previous winner deems worthy... it's named after john neil because he ALWAYS got the trophy and other people wanted it so they named it after him so others could share in the glory. i won it once my second full year with the team, and just got it again from phil, mr amazing in human form. at jackson next weekend, i will have to give it up to someone more worthy, but until then... it has a nice home on my dresser!
4- my favorite plays (involving me, of course). in the finals game- i stalled sarah, the best woman on their team. granted, it's a team effort, everyone on my team by now was playing shutdown defense, but i stalled her!! i think i caught 3 discs in the endzone... 2 of them were me being wide open and they were fairly easy catches... but one was up wind, john neil and i were the hot pair. he got it about half field and i took off so i could actually cut back under, but while i was thinking about cutting back under, i heard "UP!" i turn around and promptly see the disc directly above me... i down shift, box out, get the disc in both hands, plant my feet inside the line and hit the ground. that one felt good!! it was in bounds and amazing!
not in the finals, i also had a left handed layout grab that had me feeling pretty cool too... molly put that one up to me... i'm still astonished that my left hand held onto it! i LOVE ultimate!!!!!!!

Angie's eyes
angie is my neice. i was there when she was born 8 whole years ago! holy crap!! i got the day off of work so i could go to idaho to watch her baptism. my mom made her dress. it was absolutely adorable! in all honesty though, i only drove up to idaho falls for the chocolate milk and waffles... seeing my family was just a perk... i love going home!! i was sent home with leftover luncheon food and wonderful photos on my camera from angie's eyes...
after the luncheon i drove back to salt lake to make it to my friend's wedding reception. i can't think of two people more made for each other! it was a busy day, but i was fed and got my chocolate milk!!
