Hookers, Pitch and Ruggers
My friend Rachael plays for a women’s (duh) Rugby team, the Flint Sirens, who was here for the Toledo Invitational Tournament hosted by the Toledo Celtics. You can assemble the acronym yourself. (I really should have bought one of the shirts.) I should mention that since they were merged with the Grand Rapids Renegades for this tournament, they were actually more like GRint.
I had a great time (watching the games), caught a great tan (shooting photos) and suffered great mental trauma (witnessing a rather large man streaking during an initiation ritual.)

Presumably, if Rachael doesn’t believe in gravity, it doesn’t exist. Love that last shot–almsot enough to make me homesick. Almost.

The bruises covering my body suggest that gravity does, indeed, exist. Awesome pictures, Dan. The facial expressions say more about the sport of rugby than you could ever explain in words.

Aw. I was enjoying my belief that you could just turn gravity off like a light switch.
Makes up for my awful spelling and the knowledge that, in fact, the universe does not revolve around me.

But Dan, as great as the photos are (and I hump in their general direction), the real question is: Where are you keeping the photos of the large man streaking?

I wisely averted both my eyes and lens as soon as I realized what that giant pink mass was. I figured it was the best chance for me to save my eyesight and mental health. But thanks for thinking of my safety first!
