I Could Barely Count at 3
Through Tyson, I’ve been lucky enough to meet a
lot of great people in the Cubing
community. None are more talented however, than
Macky. We’ve been trying to get
together for some time now, and he was nice enough to head out to the
Hotel Careyfornia today before leaving for Math Camp
for the summer, and then off to Princeton in the fall. (He
turned down Cambridge and Harvard!) Over dinner we discussed
everything from Game Theory to Phonetics. You might think that
would make for dry dinner conversation, but quite the
contrary. Macky has a unique way of making even the
most black and white subjects explode with color. He makes
you think about things in ways you never have. I always feel
so energized after spending time with young people with such drive and
intellect. It give me a hope for a better tomorrow in this
country. Thanks Macky! I’m looking forward to
watching the next few years unfold.
He was
even nice enough to sign a cube for Daniel with his record solve time of 12.11
seconds.
ON THE
LIGHTER SIDE

Ryc: to answer your question about the fence. The neighbor agreed to pay for half the fence then her house was condemned and she moved. Sold to a realtor he said he would put up the fence. He never did until now all of a sudden when I was planning to get someone to fix it he had someone out there yesterday. That little girl is amazing. Judi
