bend business care crook floor game home nice overlook
We know from the Redmond game that we can't overlook any team. It's nice to play Bend after Pendleton does, but we need to take care of business on our home floor (against Crook County).
conference girls locker race start talked win
We've talked about it in the locker room. It would be nice, but the girls know the race is to 10 (wins) and then we start working our way up (in conference seeding) with every win after that.
lake physical sort
Lake Oswego is a good, physical team. They're sort of like Pendleton in that respect.
game good hitting job nice struggled
We struggled on offense, but we did a good job hitting our free-throws. It's really nice to see it; this was a big game for us.
force girls needed played rushed tried
We started slow, like we usually do, but we rushed things, and tried to force them when we needed to be more patient. The girls played hard, it just didn't happen.

friday art monday
I remember on a Friday afternoon getting a phone call from Grant Simmons saying, "Mike," we got to be pretty good friends; "Mike, the Sheriff is closing us down on Monday. If you'd like to drive into the studio tomorrow morning, you can have anything you want." So rather than go in and take home piles and piles of cels of Spider-Man what did I take home? Two pages of original art that got sent out to the west coast. Now of course if I'd have taken all the rest of that stuff home I could probably have retired a lot earlier.
vacation two letters
I moonlighted during a two-week vacation, doing a month's worth of work in two weeks; it almost killed me, but I wanted to stretch my muscles and the letter from the producer says, "Your storyboarding is Eisensteinian," referring to the famous Russian filmmaker.
