Good thing there were witnesses: after eating most of my apple last Friday, I announced to Stacy and Rachel (that's right, go ahead and ask them; they will confirm it!) that i was going to throw the core over my head, without even looking first, and it would drop into the wastebasket, which was probable twelve feet behind me (but guarded by the mini-fridge and the table with all the food prep stuff) and Rachel said, "You'll splatter it over everything," but she was so wrong, because I dunked it.

Wow Dave! You have really come a long way from trying to hit a pear into the wastebasket with a ball bat and exploding it everywhere.
Did I just dream about the Malcolm Gladwell post?
i posted it early by mistake-- so you'll get to make your trenchant comment again next week.
and you're right, i HAVE come a long way. i was once on an intra-mural basketball team called the nicks, and my shooting percentage was abysmal.
Wait . . . you dunked it?
Do you mean that you "sunk" it, or did you cheat and go over and dunk it? It helps to get with the modern basketball jargon, Dave. Also, "walking" is slang for "traveling," and is appropriate even when the player is actually running. Sounds crazy but it's true.
i suppose "sunK it" is okay, but it sounds like pool. i know what i meant.
