heloo
Wah Suh Doo?
nothing much my friend. i just started playing that game last night that you told me about
If I was in power for one day.... I would make a utopia
black desert obnline. it seems pretty freaking cool.
Oh BDO?
i have someone just boosting my levels for me so i can get through the boring part of the game.
Yeah it's an intense game. It's unlike any other game I've played. There is such a huge learning curve but once you get it down the game is very fun to play
i am already level32 and i only played for like 2 or 3 hours last night. so that is pretty cool dude i use to play this game called runescape.  i am sure that if you play blackdesert onling you ahve at least heard of it. it is like one of the original mmo i remeber i use to jst sit there a cut wood for hours. i was a real og grinder from back in the day whe i was in 6th grade. i really knew how to do it i knew the gamer lifestyle and i owned it. i should so many of my friends how the gamer life was really and i introduced them to a whole new qworld that we all got really into \ and we were able to spend alot of time on these type of games just killing other guys that were not as strong as us but in the end i was always the strongest and no one could
You're a pioneer man.... Started from the bottom now you here
even beat. which is pretty close to real life. i can be so determined that no one can beat me. hahha im kidding but in video games i dont let people beat and if they do i dont play the video game anymore. who likes playing a video that they are not that good at. i have to be one of the best. or at least one of the best in my friend group. i need everyone to knwo that i am bette ok i should stop kidding i really dont need to be the best but i will get bored of the game sooner if i am not one of the better players in the game. i mean if you lose all the time why would you want to play it. you ahve to be winning to want to keep playing it, it does not make a lot of sense to keep playing a game if you aer not even that good at it. but most of the time i can do well in a video game and if i am not doing that well i can start to practice a ton and i will usually be able to become a better player and if that is not even possoble for me to become a better player. well then i am not meant to play that specific game sorry for rambling. i get pretty intop video games and i am a prety competitive person
Haha no worries... chat away
I've recently been watching a show called the Walking Dead. It's actually a really boring show. I think I'm on like season 3 or something but it's getting really boring now...
i mean it is pretty funny listening to you talk about it and it seems like it is something that you really like
The first season was really cool. A zombie apocalyptic world but it's getting old. The show has gotten into a rut where they run away from a safe haven to another. Pretty predictable and I hate watching shows or movies that I can predict. There's only so much running away you could do before you end up bored of watching the same thing happen over and over again.
yeah i have heard a lot about that show but i dont know that much about it
Not to mention the acting is terrible in that show. The people try their best but it's kind of cringy to watch to be honest haha
i thought it lokoed pretty cool when it first came out but never really wanted to give it my time yeah i heard the acting can get pretty bad
One show I really enjoyed watching was Breaking Bad. I used to work at a call center for their grave yard shift and because it was super slow they allowed us to watch shows As long as we aren't on a call, they didn't really care what we did so I picked the Breaking Bad series and finished it while I worked at the call center. I could watch about 3 episodes during my works shift The show was super awesome. Breaking bad is about an old chemistry teacher who is a genius and gets caught in the meth business
noooooo breaking bad seems so dumb. it is just a show about sme low life guy that gets into drugs.
He's a scientist and he eventually gets cancer. He doesn't have enough money to leave behind for his wife and kid so he decides to cook meth to save up money for them It's kind of a bitter sweet deal because you feel for the guy. You know he wants to help out his family and wants to do the right thing but selling meth isn't the way to do it
ok well i have never had it really explained to me so it does seem like it is a little cooler now.
As the show progresses and his cancer gets worse, so does his personality and character. He turns into this evil guy as he turns into this mad man called Heisenberg He cooks the best meth and competes the the drug cartel in Mexico. The meth he makes is called crystal blue or something like that and because the quality of what he makes... .. is so good, everyone wants a piece of it. Eventually he becomes the boss and goes crazy He doesn't become the family man that he was at the beginning. He eventually loses everything, even his family that he wanted to save from the beginning. He gets consumed by the drug world and takes such pride in his meth that he can't give it up. I really enjoyed watching the series
he starts to mess with the mexican drug lords.
I really love watching anime too. Have you heard of an anime called Attack on Titan?
i am assuming that gets pretty dangerous for him. or maybe they respect him so much because he is making the best drug.
It's kind of a newer anime but it's been one of the good ones i've seen in a while. The manga is still being written from what I know and the anime is being caught up. The story is very interesting. There are these huge giants that eat humans. The humans live inside these huge walls that keep the giants from coming in. The anime doesn't tell you how the giants came to be, why the giants are there, or how the people are stuck behind the walls but eventually you find out And boy I tell ya... the story gets nutty.
yeha i have seen that show it is pretty cool. it is actually one of my favorite shows yo there?
yes sorry brb ok im back have you ever been white water rafting?
I've been rafting but nothing intense haha
it is way fun. you have got to try it. i have been a few times. it can get wild. the rapids have different ratings and it vary from 1 to 5 i think. three and four rapids are so much fun and sometimes pretty wild. level five rapids can be a little much for me. if you are not careful you can get bucked out of the boat. i remember one of the times i wen the tour guide let us sit on the front of the boat and grab this rope and ride the rpids. it was like riding a bull. it was so fun. in that same trip that guide let us stop at some cliff jumping spot and we stayed there for a while and were jumping of cliffs that were around forty feet high it was so fun. back home where i live we do alot of cliff jumping. last time iwas home i was cliff jumping and i hit the bottom of the shore and usually there is sand it is not not that bad but this time i landed right on a rock and i cut my foot. it was way bad i should have got stitches but i thought it would be fine. after a few days i realized i probably
Yeah man river rafting can be super dangerous.... I don't do anything like that
i should get stitches but i was kind of already starting to heal even if it was healing the best it could
I'm more of a lazy river type you know? Just something simple where I can float down and relax I can see the fun in doing that
i guess that type of rafting is pretty cool too but i like the rush of doing stuff like that. but what is funny about me cutting my foot is that my brother ended up cutting his foot on a rock too right after i did. i think he had the worse cut though. it was very obvi we didnt want to go to the hospital so we took him to a family friend that is a eye doctor and asked if he had the stuff to give him stitches. it was pretty crazy. he did but he did not you the best stuff to get it done.
Stitches kind of make me feel sick They're very gross
he numbed the cut then scrubed the cut with a toothbrush and iodine. it made you stomach hurt just loking at him clean it and prep it to be stitched together. it was one of the gnarly things i have ever seen. we have a lot of stories of people getting hurt when we do that type of stuff for fun. i use to also longboard down big hills with gloves. so when you do this you put your hands on the ground and push out the board and start to slide on your hands and the board. it is the only way to slow down on a long board when you are going really fast but it is alos kind of hard to learn how to do and learn can get pretty dangerous at times. when i was leanr i would go down a hill and try it and if i couldnt do it and started going to fast i who just ride my board onto some grass and wreck on the grass.
yeah I've seen videos of people longboarding down huge highways with gloves
it hurt but not near as bad as it would if i hit the concrete or the dirt.
It looks super cool but dangerous too I'm not sure if I could get the nerve to do something like that I think it would be too fast for me to control the speed
dude it is so cool it get really intense. you can get so good at it that you can be flying past cars going down hill and then when you need to break you just slide your board to the side and slow your speed down. but really you gain speed so fast on a board that you end up sliding alot just to keep your speed not to fast. if you dont you can get speed wobbles and that is when it gets really dangerous one of the really back wrecks that me and my friends had when we use to do this was when we went to a fire access road to this big moutain. it was newly paved so it was perfec t we hiked up to the top and then we started boarding down. i was the only one that made it down with out hurting myself. but one friend when he was trying to slide to slow down so then he started sliding down the hill on his butt and on his hands. he burned through his pants and his underwear and got really bad road rash on his cheeks.
I feel like the the wheels on the longboard would rip open from going so fast
and on that smae part of the hill my other friend also fell but he fell on his back and was sliding down on hisback head first and his back got wrecked. it was so bloody
I'm not sure if stuff like that could happen but I could totally see it
then i got to that part of the hill and i had pretty bad speed wobbles but i was able to keep control and stay on and finish with a beautiful slide and stop just in time not to hit my friend that wrecked but i eventually had the worst wreck when you wake board you hold onto a rope and get pulled. well i tried doing that but behind of a car on a long board. it was fine at first but then the person driving started i blacked out right away. i remember trying to stand up right after it happened but then i fell back down and blacked out again. my friends eventually came and got me and when i woke i did not feel any pain and i didnt remember some of my firends names. i had a concussion and i went into shock. i was really giggly and i was slurring my speech a ton.
Yikes thats pretty scary... concussions are bad
i really should have got stitches. the cut on my head was huge but i did not have health insurance at thwe time so i would not let my friends take me to the hospital. i played it off too my aunt that it was not that bad and it just looked bad so i would not have to go to the hospital but in reality it was pretty bac. when the scab form i could fit my finger in the width of the cut. but i had long hair so people could not really tell. haha i remember i was in class like a week after it happened and i realized i was still struggling remembering things. one of my friends would get mad at me all the time because i would not be able to hold a conversation about the past. i just could not remember enough about the topic if it was in the recent past i remember it buggin me like crazy. it started to make me kind of mad my frind chandler is making flies for fiashing right now. i think it is so weird that some one can be so into fishing like he is. he spends so much of his free time with fishing related stuff. i am pretty sure he does something fishing relate everyday without fail. he has always been into fishing but not that long ago he go into fly fishing an and he does not know how to keep a balance. but i gues there are worse tings to spend your time on.
Yeah addictions are addictions too much it can be harmful It seems like your friend is on the downhill He needs a girl in his life to help him out
yeah that is what i try to tell him but he wont listen it is getting kind of eird. when he makes the flies he likes to put himself in the fishes positon and try and imagine what they would enjoy eating so when he finishes making a flie he just asks himself. would i eat that if i was a fish. and then sometimes he even tests the hook on his lip to make sure the hook is plenty sharp enough. im telling you he needs to take a break from this fishing thing. it is getting to a point where he may be fully consumed into the fishing lifestyle. he may start traveling the world wasting all his money on fishing for fish in different places even though he could save money and just fish here. but for some reason he will want to go somewhere else even though the fish her are perfectly fine. and what is weird is that he does not even it fish that much
Quite the humor Fly fishing addiction is real
It is real We all have weird addictions though right? Have you ever seen that show on television my strange addiction?
Sounds like an interesting show
There is this one episode about this really fat girl who is addicted to cheesy potatoes. Pretty much for the past like 25 years all she has eaten is cheesy potatoes every day
Kind of creepy too
This girl is no joke like 500 pounds of cheesy potatoes. Can you imagine that? Every day all day cheese and potatoes. I mean dont get me wrong that sounds abolutely delicious right now but at the same time that is so disgusting. I used to eat chic fil a every day for lunch at school last semester and now I've had to take like a 2 month break from chicken strips just because I became so used to the flavor that it stopped being good and turned into something that was just food for me Which is sad become chic fil as is like the greatest fast food chain ever in BYU. I literally cried tears of joy when it first moved here I used to get a spicy chicken sandwich no pickles, medium fry, and a fountain drink every day. The hostess at the counter recognized my face and already knew what I was going to order. She knew that I knew the total and that I was going to use Cougar Caseh Cash*
My favorite fast food restaurant is Chic-Fil-A. I could eat their food anytime
She didn't even bother to tell me the total and we just made this eye contact and locked souls knowing that we both know what each other want in life. I just want to be able to have that experience with another person. The moment I look into a girls eyes and I recognize that she understands me just as well as that Chic Fil A Hostess, I will immediately bend my knee and ask her to marry me and open up a small box like a ring box The only kicker will be that there will be no ring in side. No there will be just an unopened packet of Chic Fil A sauce That is the best gold that exists on this Earth So I guess you could say that I'm about as addicted to Chic Fil A as that really overweight girl was to cheesy potatoes. Maybe TLC should be paying me money to talk about my life and follow me around talking about my strange addiction. I mean i would be super entertaining and make a great show. People would be tuning in from all over the world to watch me eat my 4 piece chicken strips and medium fries. They would see as I carefully ate my food in the exact same order each day: First I eat the first half of the medium fries.I I dont know why I do that. I assume it started because they always put the fries on top of the sandwich or strips. I guess I just eat half the fries so that I can get my palate ready for the flavor town that is about to explode when I sink my teeth into the moist chicken breast So after one half of the waffle fries are in my stomach digesting, I am just about to finish my first pack of Chic Fil A Sauce. I dry my fingers on the napkin and then remove the half empty box of fries from the bad bag* I then remove the red treasure chest that is full of juicy chicken and prep my fingers for the next packet of sauce to be opened up
you could be a chic fil a critic with that knowledge
exactly 4 napkins are necessary to finish my lunch
I'm sure they would pay you to eat their food and give reviews
I use 2 at this point to clean my fingers and then carefully open the next packet of sauce If you are careful and master the technique, you can open the sauce in one try without ripping the top wrapper like so many plebs end up doing. I remove and discard the 2nd wrapper and I see a new level layer of sauce awaiting the dip of the sweet chicken. But I dont start eating yet I also bring out my secret weapon: The ranch packet Cindy, the hostess, always slips in 1 ranch packet with my 3 chic fil a sauce packets I dont actually know how this started. Maybe she slipped it in on accident one day. I dont think so because if that was the case it would've only been a one time deal and then it wouldnt have happened again. No I think she wanted to make an impression in my life. She knew by my highly scheduled lifestyle that a small change like that would not go unnoticed The first time I saw that packet I hesitated to open up. It was new and different for me. However I gave it a try out of sheer curiosity and realized how sweet the contrast wa
man, you've got to hookups bro... I'm sure you alone can sustain the chick fil a industry
The nice bitter/saltyness of the ranch and the sweet tang of teh Chic Fil A sauce compliment each other so well that I knew that Cindy was leading me to new paths never before heard of in my life. You could say she changed my life that day actually. Anyways, from that day on she always slipped in a packet of ranch with my 3 chic fil a packets. I think it was a message. Not one of love or of attention seeking, but rather a message of understanding between two souls. I'm sure we would be compatible if we gave it a shot but it never was about that. She just really desired that I enjoy my chicken to the maximum extent that is possible by her service to me. She takes pride in her work and I can absolutely respect that. She has a real talent in her craft of rapid food service. She will be going far one day and has so much potential ahead of her. I really hope that one day in the long distant future that we cross paths. I know that we may not recognize each other s looks But we will lock eyes
That
and then all of the chicken flash backs will start to come back to both of us
is kind of creepy
We will remember a deeply hidden connection that we fostered through years of selfless service and consumerism I will grin as we meet eyes
It's almost like destiny that you two met.
I imagine her wearing her red chic fil a shirt She imagines me with my ear buds and my blue backpack slung over one shoulder We both go back to our youthful days in college and smile. Who knows if we stop and talk or just keep walking and reminiscing in our minds about those years long past That is a story yet to be written I suppose Well its time to start typing again I suppose I got some competition brewing up in the mean time There is this really cool thing called euro style nymping when it comes to fly fishing that is all about getting a dragless drift Typical style nymph fishing uses a bubble indicator to suspend your flies in the water column and then drag them through a riffle where the fish are located at. The only problem with this approach to nymph fly fishing is that the currents on top of the river travel much faster than the currents on the bottom of the river The fish like to hang out on the bottom in this hydraulic cushion that is formed by the water molecules flowing over the cobble stones on the bottom
little bits...
This turbulence creates the pocket of negative pressure where bugs can swirl around and the hungry trout can eat them lazily as it flows past thenm So the key to cathing more fish in a river is to get your flies down in this part of the current and have them flow with the current But with suspension nymphing this gets difficult due to this difference in currents.
Oh no way. So like how is fly fishing worst than regular spinner or bait fishing?
So this is where euro nymphing comes into play By eliminating the indicator all together you can ahve this thin line that cuts through the water down to the bottom of the water column where the fish are located. But then you may ask. How in the world can you see if a fish is biting without a bubble? I totally get you and I have a great answer to that question
But how can you see if  you have a fish if there is no indicator?
This is achieved by this nifty thing called a sighter This sighter is a really bright orange and fluorescent chartreuse piece of monofilament 20lb test line and you tie a 4 turn blood knot This blood knot will leave tag ends a few inches long. Trim these down to about 1-2 inches and you will have a very strong, high contrast piece of monofilament material that acts just like a strike indicator that is integrated right into the leader Now this achieves two different things. You get very visible strike detection, and you've removed the drag of a bubble from the top of the water. This sighter is build into
So if that piece goes underwater, than i know a fish is on?
the tapered leader and you can keep this part of a tight line that extend from the tip of your extrememly sensitive rod down to the bottom of the river You try to keep it above water or else you are doing it wrong Also by using barbless hooks and proper catch and release techniques i remember win i was younger i use to fish a ton. i would get my tackle box and just run down to the creek with my dogs and just chill down there and catch small mouth bass an catch little blue gil. i remember one time i was fishing and i caught a fish but a otter started to attack my fish that was on  the line. he didnt end up getting it but i saw him hit it. i was still able to reel it in though. i dont eat fish though so i just threw it right back in. m my favorite type of fish to catch is large mouth bass. i love fishing for them because they give a pretty good fight but fishing for them is pretty chill
Really? thats intrestin??
but my all time favorite type is fishing is fishing for perch off the northern california shore.
How long have you been fishing?
it is so fun because you catch the sand crabs right there then hook them and thorugh them out. i dont really like the technical fishing i like to fish just to chill and hang out with friends and family
No way! Sand crabs! thats kinda cool. I'm the same, i just fish for fun
i have a lot of country friends that have ponds so if we ever wanted to go catch easy fish we would just go to their ranches and catch a ton of large mouth bas anyway do you have any place you like to shop for clothes?
H and M.... dont hate me
hahaha I actually like H and M sometimes
i know it controversical i cant spell well
they have cheap stuff but yes they do have the fast fashion culture
But tbh i dont shop a ton thats why i look so bumpy all the time
I have to buy jeans at like Hot Topic so
haah why?
well I dont have to but I like to get my black jeans from there because their black lasts a long time and it doesnt turn to a bluish black after you wash them
they only have your fit?
and they have good fitting jeans I sometimes check out like Pac Sun for some jeans they sometimes have nice blue jeans but they have to be the ultra skinny ones
Oh, cuz its like Satan clothes, i get it!
hahah satan clothes
Hmm what other places do you shop?
I used to go to Satan Hot Topic before they turned in to this nerdy anime place they still sell cool band shirts but I dont buy those anymore I used to be in to online shopping a lot they always have cheap clothes because they always have sales going on I also used to shop at forever 21 because they also had some cheap stuff know one knows that they have a mens section in the far back corner of the shop
I got to pac sun, or cotton on, or climbing companies because I support those kinds of companies and their environmental minded actions
but bigger forever 21s have a whole floor for mens a lot of their clothes are made in korea actually
Granola but we should take care of our planet No wat! Youre like Korean right?
cotton on sometimes has some nice shirts I think I have some shirts there and a hoodie
Cheap too
yep
Didnt you model for clothes recently?
yeah I did!
How was that?
it was really nice because I got a lot of free clothes
Howd that start then? did someone contact you?
well my girlfriend has a friend who started the Baffle Studios with his other friend. I wen to her classroom and I found my girlfriend and him talk about a pop up show. well when I walked in they were talking about how they needed model for the pop up show and he asked me if I wanted to help out. I said yes but I didn't think id get any cloth clothes
Thats a sweet set up! Did they have some good stuff for you?
well the first gig was nice because they gave me the pants. they are selling those for like 170 bucks. It is super nice quality and the fit was really nice the friend was like hey thanks for helping out you can keep those pants i was like dude thanks! oh and while i was helping out modeling there another guy that started Kaap studios asked me if I wanted to model for his clothes
Thats awesome! You probably saved alot of money as well!
yeah i did! I actually wanted to buy another pair of jeans and I got one for free
Where is Kaap Studios? Sweet!
kaap studios is started here in provo
I wish i could model, but im like 250 lbs
hahaha no you aren't Kaap studio guy hit me up later that week and he asked me to come to the studio and I modeled for the guy. after we were done he was like take one of anything.
OK fine 246
one of everything I mean hahaha no I was like no way you cant do that. those are so much clothes! he said to me that he wanted me to have all of them so that I could rep it everywhere
one of everything!! Thats a steal for sure
I was totally happy about that hahaha because I got 2 long sleeves, 2 t shirts, 1 vest, 3 beanies, 2 hoodies, 2 polo shirts I think that was all but those were like over 300 dollars of clothes he just gave me a whole new wardrob
For real though
oh and he gave me 2 pants too super nice of him I only modeled for like 30 minutes
You'll never need to shop this yera year
yepp hahaha
Can you find our images online?
I do need to buy a new pair of black pants
your like your face
oh hahaha
on a website or something/
yeah i guess you can because its on the internet now I think their website is down right now because they are getting ready to release some other clothes for the Summer I hope they ask me to model again so I can get new clothes My girlfriend was super proud of me hahaha hey do you want to here about some of my user experience project that I've worked on in the past?
Sure! I lof UX. im a master at it! I teach at Harvard
hahah yeah right. well in my user experience team we had real companies here in the area come to us and asked us to do some user research for them the first project that we did was with Cake App. this app was a native mobile browser app and they wanted to challenge the mobile browser game. They are going against browsers such as Safari, chrome, firefox, and opera but opera doesnt really matter so we are going to ignore them so Cake wanted us to test their app and compare the speed and efficiency of the app with other people's app So cake is really cool because browsers like safari and chrome are desktop apps that are adapted to the mobile experience but because they have been around for so long!@ sorry i didnt mean to enter because they have been around for so long everyone just had to adopt to the experience that those companies provided so cake came along and was like we need to make a real mobile browser that will use some good swipe features and make it so that it will be a lot easier to use.
that is pretty cool. i could not imagine doing anything like that stuff. i think thats stuff is beyond confusing and i will let people that actually enjoy that stuff
when you google something it will pull up the very first search result instead of the google results page its pretty cool hahaha yeah that is me hahaha so anyway what we did to help them out was that we took test users and asked them to google some trivia, shopping, and other random stuff that you would google on your phone. We had them do it twice. Once with their native mobile browser, so if they used safari then we would compare it with safari to cake
ok what happened after? what did you find?
well we found that cake was not any faster and we found that most people were probably faster on their native browsers because they were used to the flow but some people were still a bit confused when using Cake but a lot of people thought it was really cool and they like the idea and all the convenient features that Cake Provided most of them said that they would switch probably because they are already comfortable with their experience and they dont really need to change
people like being comfortable. if you try and switch things up on them they well probably reject it.
all of us in the team had to test 2 users and recorded their uses on the phone and timed their search results it was really fun
the people less likely to reject a new idea are the young generation. they are a little more likely to try someting new and actually put forth the time to learn it
and after we presented our data to Cake president and the lead designer they were super impressed and we found that they donated 4000 dollars and we found out that Cake actually raised a couple million dollars to make the app they launched like a couple months ago and I think they have a lot of users and they are increasing I hope that they get really big yeah people do like being comfortable it is really hard to convert people from a community or habit to a new one because they are already comfortable and they dont like change because it will take more effort like me I really liked the cake app but I didnt keep it on my phone because I was already comfortable with the experience with Safari
yeah you have to really convince them of your product. they have to really be in to your product and back it to want to change the way they ahve been doing things
yeah I think you are right. there is a famous saying with human computer interaction and user experience design. They say that 'You ( the designer, developer or whatever) are not the user" we cannot design an app or a product that is just a cool idea just because we think its cool and because we think that the app or the product wil make our life easier doesnt mean that it will for other people i think that if we have a cool idea or if we think that the idea will really help others because its a problem then we need to actually go out and ask people, do surveys and test your idea or hypothesis so that you can know for sure that this idea is going to solve a problem as a user experience designer you need to be able to find the problem quickly and come up with solution and test solutions and try and try again until you got the right soluti
i guess thats true and there are probably a lot of people that get stuck having ideas that are based off their needs but just because it is one of their needs does not mean it is a common need of others.
yes exactly
i feel like that would be hard to get past. to startr thinking and studying to see what other people are going to need when it is so much more natural and easy to think of things that affect you
I think it is really cool in my field that I get to find problems, come up with ideas to solve them then test the ideas until it solves the problem yeah it can be kind of tough but its fun and I enjoy it. I know that for some people its not their cup of tea. so I am really happy that I found what I enjoy for a career
im glad that you found your niche
thank you hahaha
what other hobbies do you have Jaezo?
well I told you all my hobbies i think did I mention biking?
yes but how did you get in to it?
well so when I was in high school I really got sick of playing video games so much and I felt that it was really consuming my life and it was so bad so bought a bike and I rode it around all the time. I bought a fixed gear bike and is single speed
whats fixed gear bike?
well fixed gear bike means that you cant coast at all it means that you have to pedal and move your legs as fast as the wheels are spinning and you cant stop pedaling]
that soudns terrible
ehh its not that bad actually its actually kind of fun but its more dangerous than a traditional bike
i gues it would at least be a pretty wicked work out
hahaha yeah it is
what happens when you go down a super steep hill tough? thoug though
and you can skid stop by leaning a bit forward to the front of the bike so that your body weight  is off the back wheel and you lock your legs so that the wheel stops spinning you can skid around like that everywhere but it will eat your tire up so fast if you go really fast down a super steep hill then you just have you pedal really fast or else your legs will fly out and you wont be able to put your feet back on until you slow down enough but usually a lot people will crash before that happens that is why I have a front break brake a lot of the hardcore fixie riders dont have brakes installed becuase they like it and its more thrilling
hahaha yeah i think i have seen a bike like that and it had a front break. if it didnt it sounds like it would be way dangerous
I give a lot of respect to those guys but I really think it is dumb because not only you endanger yourself but you can endanger other people if you lose control yeah it would be you would be a rocket that couldnt stop
yeah thats true. if you have to stop really fast you can not and you could hit someone
yup well anyway biking is one of my favorite hobbies because I biked instead of playing video games before I went on my mission I used to bike from my house and all the way up past Big Springs Park in the canyon
that is dumb. video games are awesome.
until the road stopped because of a private ranch
haha just kidding
yeah I love video games but I needed to find some balance because it was too much
i like bikes a lot but i really do not know that much about
every once in a while Ill slip and play way too long really what kind of biking do you like?
yeah i guess that is true. you need to have a balance
i love to road bike and trail bike I think downhill biking would be kind of scary but I think it would be really cool to do some jumps over gaps in Park City they have some really cool downhill courses that have wooden plank paths I never been though and I really want to I have a buddy up there that is doing an internship at Skullcandy and he is downhill and trail biking all the time on his spare time
downhill biking seems pretty cool i have a brother that really likes to do that
oh really? does he go a lot?
um not really he is more into dirt biking and that type of stuff
ooh dirt biking
he likes speed more than anything
i really want to learn how to ride a motorcycle I want to go dirt biking too
yeah it is pretty fun. for the first little bit after i get on i am pretty nervous though
oh hahaha i bet you will get used to that feeling I rode a small kick bike before and the first time I rode it I kicked it in to gear and I reved it but I reved too high and I let it drag me around until it went too fast that it forced me to let go of the bike hahaha my friends told me that I have whiskey throttle I thought I was grabbing the brake but not that I think of it I think I was pulling on the clutch lever not the brake
hahaha that is pretty funny my buddy right now is playing fortnite. haha
yeah it was funny to look back but I was so scared and I got a lot of cuts on my stomach from it
he is getting so upset
hahaha really? yeah I never get upset when I play video games
he stayed up so late last night.
I get kind of salty but I am not verbally expressive
getting upset at video games is so easy to do if your not careful though
I have a friend who gets really angry at league of legends he will get so mad that he starts to swear a punch and then he starts trying to report everyone else in the game to try and get them in trouble and maybe even banned. it is pretty comical but also at the same time because he seems like he is pretty serious and that he is way sad. but after a little bit he will realize that he is acting like a child and then sometimes even apologize. but that does not happen very often.
They sound bi polar hahaha
his name is andrew.
Oh... Yikes
haha he is a pretty cool guy though i guess you did not need to know his name though
yeah a little too much info
i have been in a school for so long. i have a friend that graduated right at 4 years and that just seems crazy to me. i think she actually graduated the semester right before four years.
Good thing there's a bunch of Andrew's out there I'm sure they're all cool people
yeah true
especially the one you're talking about
but back to this girl she studied microbiology and killed. she is not one of those super smart girls but she is one of those people that are really hard working so she was able to get it done that but what sucks is that there are so many poeple that graduate from college and then have a hard time finding a job what i was told is that once you graduate you just need to get a job as soon as possible. even if it is not a job you really prefer. you just need to take a job and use it for experience. do that job for a year or two then you can start looking for another job and use the experience you got at that job to make yourself more relvent.
Yeah that's so true. That's why professors are pushing their students to get internships as early as sophmore years because they know how competitive it gets
but if graduate and are jobless for a year afterwards it looks bad. it makes people wonder why you were not able to get a job. so after you graduate you can not be too picky because then it could back fire and you could find yourself having to take a job you really do not want to do that barely even pertains to what you studied
Right. I don't think it's worth it to go to school for four plus years and not get a employeed because it wasn't the job you wanted. I feel like if you work hard at it, eventually you'll get the job you studied for but not everything works out to be in your favor all the time.
and this girl is trying not to get caught in that situation. she is back home right now looking for a job. any job really that will make her look better and make people consider her for any future job that she is looking to get yeah if you push yourself enough you can get the job you want but it might now always work at first. you will most likely have some obstacles that make it seem like it might
True, any job is experience and gives money
be something within your reach but really if you just buckle down and stay strong it totally is i have another friend that is really smart and graduated in mechanical engineering with great grades. after he graduated he started to look for jobs but he was always applying for jobs that were not within his reach and it made it so he was jobless for a long time. he did not have a job for over a year after he was done with college. it really effected him in a bad way. he ended up taking a lesser job as a draftsman which  anybody with a
Yeah I think graduate students get in a mindset of how much they want to make from their career and get caught up in that setting and they waste a lot of time
certification can do. it is still related to his major but not what is best for now. but he put himself in a rough spot and he had to take the job. he could not keep going without having a job well they spend a bunch of money on school so they get in their head that they are worth a certain amount and they do not let others tell them different.
Yeah some people are over qualified which turns employers off but it's always better to take a pay cut for a job that doesn't pay as much as you hoped than being jobless
but what they do not realize is that when you are in college and first trying to get in the indisty you are in the thick of it. it is not easy. and people seem to want to make it harder
That's so true. Getting in that mindset of "I went to school and graduated with a degree so I deserve this" is not what anyone who graduated from a university should think. It's so competitive out there that most likely there's always someone that will be better than you that's applying.
people think dang college was rough and now i am done with that i can start with my career but finding that career is just as hard and getting credability is just as hard.
I think more important than grades is experience. If people have lots of job experience I think that looks way better than some GPA would.
they think the hard part is over but it just continues until you ahve been with a good company for a little and they really start to take care of you So recently I've been watching a youtube channel from buzzfeed called worth it videos. It's about these three guys who go around and eat one type of food at 3 different price points to see which price is the most worth it They've done like 3 or 4 seasons and pretty much have done all the foods you can think of. They've done fried chicken, ramen, bacon, eggs, pancakes, cake, hotdogs, pizza... etc... Pretty much any type of food you can think of, they've probably done it. It's pretty cool to see all these different foods being prepared in different ways.
whoa
More often than not though, the food that is cheaper is usually better. They've been to different countries around the world to try different foods.
buzzfeed is like a younger generations newspaper
I kind of wish I had their job you know? I would love to go around to different places to try foods. It's actually insane how much some of these foods cost.
and when it comes to news it always deems the same. just poeple taking bad news and making it worse by making it seem worse than it really is
Like in the cake episode, the most expensive cake costed like two thousand dollars. Isn't that crazy?
honestly the news is good and all i just wish they did not focus so much on the negative. i get that there is a lot of bad things that happen out there but there are also a
Most of the time what I've noticed is that the expensive foods have like gold tissue on it or truffle Or cavier
lot of good things that are happening out there and they deserved to be recognized. yeah that is true
There was a fried chicken episode and for the most expensive fried chicken, the chef put out small tortillas, caviar, and the fried chicken
packaging is how you really get people to look at it
They pretty much just made a taco and ate it. It didn't look all that good but I think it probably tasted like heaven.
the food can be good but in the right packaging the lesser of the foods could actually sell for more because a lot of buy things just based on status. just like anything people are so concerned with status that they will buy anything that makes them come off as a higher status then someone else. supreme is the perfect example they sell their close for a insane price even though their clothing line is alway so bland and they even sell random stuff like supreme bricks it is just a brick that says syupreme and they sell it for a bunch of money and it will sell because it has their logo on it. it is pretty crazy how much jsut a brand can cost and all it really is is just a brand
Another episode that I thought was bizarre was the hot dog one. The cheapest hot dog was like two dollars or something and it was a standard hot dog. The most expensive hot dog was massive. I swear it was like 2 feet long. Not only that but it had truffles on it. I'm not sure how truffles taste but people who have tried it say it smells stinky and the taste is strong
haha well i guess in some situations size sells too. i wonder why anyone would even want that big of a hotdog just seems like a lot of food that is almost for sure going to be wasted. or at least most of it is going to be wasted
Do you know how people farm truffles? Its actually quite interesting. I'm not sure exactly how it's done but I know a little bit about it. Truffles only grow in certain conditions and people farm them usually in Europe. People use animals who have strong sensitive noses that can sense the truffle. Once you dig a truffle up from the ground, they immediately start to go bad and it's a race to get them to the different restaurants around the world so they don't go bad Quality restaurants pay really good money for fresh truffles and truffle scavengers get a lot of money too.
they farm truffles? that does not seem like that can be really. haha
People have tried to replicate truffles by imitating the smell and taste but they don't come nearly as close to the actual truffle that's been growing
probably just messing with people
yeah I might be completely wrong but I think I read some of it from Wikepedia You probably shouldn't trust what I say haha But can you imagine being a truffle farmer? Going around with a truffle hound or some other animal and scavenging for truffles. I would probably lie to my family and friends about what I did if I was actually a truffle scavenger
oh shoot wikipedia is never wrong so i bet it true.
It would be really cool to be a chef though. I don't have that great of a talent for cooking but I do love it.
oh you would have to lie about what you do. if not everyone would make fun of you and that would be no fun yeah i wish i was better at cooking
I'm actually pretty decent but nothing good enough to start up my own restaurant or something like that. I really want to help my mom start up a restaurant though.
but i am terrible at cooking. my mom has two cook books and i have them but i never use them
She makes very good Korean food and I feel like she'll do very well. If I did start something up for her, it would be the type of restaurant that only stays open for... .,.. lunch time or whatever and closes when the food runs out.
that would be a lot of fun to help your mom start up a company. that would be so fun to work along side of people you actually like
Yeah it wouldn't be much of a business to make money although that should just come but it would be to help her keep busy since she's always been a working women and doesn't.. ... like being idle
if it was that type of place though you probably would not be able to only do that for a living though. it would be hard to make enough money when you are only open during
You know that way she could cook food which is something she loves doing and make it for family and friends! I also think it would be dope to have like a Korean fusion start u up
lunch because most of the money spent on food is during dinner. and  a lot of the people that have the money to be spending are working during the time that you would be open
There's a few out right now but it's still fairly new so I think if I were to get serious about something like that it would do pretty well around here. Especially considering all the missionaries who served in Korea or other Asian countries. I feel like they would love to have a taste of what they ate for two years of their life
that would be sweet. you could have her be the main chef and she just preps everything but leaves at five and lets the other cooks handle the dinner rush. all they would have to do is finish what she preped yeah you could definently appeal to the younger crowd and i think that is what you would have to do if you wanted to only be open untl five in the afternoon
I was watching a documentary the other day about sushi. Not the typical sushi that you see here in the states but like the OG sushi. Nigiri or sashimi The documentary takes place in Japan, the heart of where sushi was born from. It's about this old guy who started up a small sushi bar near where he lives.
i really do not know that much about sushi.
People from all over the world, master chefs and sushi critics, come over to have a taste of what he has to offer. It's super expensive to eat there and the reservations almost always packed the entire year
yeah that would be way cool if you could get that type of attraction. make your seem like a delacacy
He's a crazy humble guy though... He makes all this money and he lives in a small house and bikes to his work place. He personally goes to the fish market at like 2-3 am in the morning to look for fresh fish that were just caught. He's been around for a really long time so he gets good deals from the fishermen and they have a mutual relationship to help each other.
that is pretty cool. if you were to do something like you are thinking you would need to decide who you audience is or who you want it to be. depending on who you are trying to please you should make a lot of changes to your plans.
He has a son that worked under him and he started up his own sushi restaurant under his father. Except his son's sushi place is in New York.
i think a big part is location oh that is a way smart idea by his son.
Part of the documentary focuses on his son's restaurant and it's a bigger and nicer looking place but the sushi is not as good as his father's (obvisously).
wealthy peple like to go where there is attraction and attention. they go out for good food but also status like i said earlier
In fact the son respects his father so much that his price for the sushi is quite lower than the price of his father's restaurant in Japan.
well of course. his dad is the original sushi master of the family. the son can not compete with the king of sushi
While watching that video I couldn't help but realize how much preparation goes into making nigiri or sashimi. These guys go through so much before the sushi gets prepared. The rice that is made is tended with the most care, the seaweed hand slapped over the fire one at a time, etc
that sounds like a pretty solid son. he could problem use his fathers fame to make fore money if he really wanted but he is choosing to be like his dad and be humble or at least a little bit like his dad
The guys that work under the sushi master don't even get to prepare sushi until years later... and I mean like 10-12 years. The son didn't get to make sushi for his customers until way late into his 30's or something crazy like that.
sushi is gross by the way. i have tried a lot of different types and a lot of rolls and they all are hard for me to swallow
The apprentices mostly prepares the rice, the fish, or just house maintnence stuff. They're crucial to the operation but the sushi master believes that his apprentices need more practice before they can actually make prepare things for their customers. The sushi master is very consciencious about his customers as well. Every morning he takes a look at the reservations several times and makes sure everything is perfect.
yeah that makes sense honestly. if you are held at such high regard you have to protect your name and you credability
He takes into account whether people are left handed or right handed and prepares sushi smaller for the women compared to the men for convinience
you can just any random person who think they know what they are doing be cooking in your establishment
I think a course from the sushi master is like 300 dollars + or something crazy like that. I actually wouldn't be surprised if people payed more for the sushi
the whole course or jsut one day
I'm just estimating lol.... I actually saw this documentary a very long time ago so my facts are probably way off haha
that does not seem that bad if he is the master of sushi
It's one course and it's usually like 15-20 different nigiri or sashimi
yeah maybe do not give me false numbers and exaggerate things.
Yeah I might be totally off. You're better off watching the documentary yourself... that way you can actually see the old sushi master for yourself
oh i understand. yeah that is pretty crazy. that is cool that he is really respected that much that he can charge that and people are willing to go for that price
He got invited to come to the U.S. from so many different chefs and restaurants to come teach them and pass on his knowledge.
i have tried so many different types of sushi rolls and i have never liked a single one
But sushi is such a simple food that it's almost more important to have technique on how to prepare the sushi rather than the quality. Don't get me wrong, the quality of the sushi matters but I think that technique for how to prepare it is even more crucial than the products that are inside it
people from california are really prideful that their fish is so fresh and that everywhere else the sushi is trash
My brother served in the Long Beach, California mission and when we visited his mission after he came home, we went to sushi restaurants around there and they were delicious
i am a super picky eater and i wish i could just change my taste buds so i liked a lot of the foods i currently do not enjoy.
Those sushi were straight fire... It got me thinking, if those fifteen dollar sushi were so good and tasty, I can't imagine how good the sushi from the master could be.
i dislike sushi so much that if i try and eat to much of it i will start to gag on the the food. one time i even threw up wheni tried to eat shrimp. it was a bad experience
Yeah seafood isn't for everyone but for the people who do like it, it's like a food sent from heaven.
i have only ever eaten one thing of sushi that i really liked. it was a peice of tuna that was raw in the middle and a little cooked on the outside. i do not know why i lied it and i did not think i would
Yo... Just the other day I was thinking about owning some type of pet and I thought was owning a hedgehog. Those little things are so dang cute. It's too bad I live in an apartment complex that doesn't allow pets or I would so definitely buy a hedgehog. I've seen so many videos of hedgehogs its insane.
yeah that would be way cool. i heard they have a little bit of a personality like not all pets eem to have much of a character but i heard that hedgehogs do
I've seen tutorial videos on how to bathe them, feed them, groom them, and care for them. It's true that hedgehogs can have a personality but if you get them used to human though from a baby stage, they're just like dogs.
i met someone at the place i use to work at that had one and he would show us videos of it and it was way cute.
It's a matter of showing affection while they're young so that they're used to human interaction and are comfortable when a hand reaches out to touch them or pick them up.
the women would flock to you too if you had one of those cute little guys. you should probably get one and maybe i can borrow it sometime
Just imagine though, a cute little hedgehog running around... I think I would even bring it to school and let it run around on the grass or something. I think they're cuter than puppies... Hedgehogs are literally my favorite animals right now. I actually looked up how much it would cost to buy a hedgehog and it's not bad
yeah that would be way cute but what if it got lost. its so small it might have a hard time finding its way around and back to your loving arms
They can get pricey for different breeds but they're definitely cheaper than pure breed dogs that go for thousands and thousands of dollars. Another pet that I think would be really cool to have is a bird And I don't mean like the house birds that chirp and poop everywhere. I mean like a falcon or something crazy big bird that flies around and comes to you when you whistle
dogs are the best pet but people do not know how to train their dogs and thats why i do not like a lot of peoples dogs. then they ask me why i do not like dogs. and i tell them that i like dogs but i just do not like your dog because you baby it and never trained it to behave and now it acts like a wild child that was raised by bad parents that let it do whatever it wanted and never let it know that some of the things it does is not ok to do
I would love to own a falcon or something and have it deliver mail like they did in medieval times. Send out like a little note to my girlfriend with a cool falcon
you play too much video games
That would be so dope. You would win any girls heart if you sent them a love letter delivered by a falcon No... I don't play enough video games
haha for sure. i think a hedgehog would work best.
Honestly though I have to agree with you. Dogs make the best pets. They are super social and friendly. As long as you treat them right and don't abuse them
or maybe a baby. maybe you should just get yourself one of those
Most dogs turn out fine and are well behaved as long as you train them right from when they're a puppy. I hate cats though. Cats are the most annoying, disgusting, sly, pets on earth. It always seems like they're scheming something and ready to betray anyone.
yeah you have to treat them right but so many people think that means just let them do what they want. people act like their dogs can not do anything wrong and that just is not right because then their dog is always bother other peopole and has no manners
The way the lurk around in the shadows makes me wonder if they are secretly intelligent and are ready to take over the world at any time
i do not usually like cats either but there are some that are coll but 90 percent of them are annoying and moody
That's my cat conspiracy. Ever seen the terminator or robots and machines taking over the world? Yeah, imagine that except with cats. That's quite the scary future
yeah they look like they have something going on. like they know something we dont. they probably could talk to us if they chose to
The only type of cats I like are tigers or like lions but they're not really pets so I guess they don't count. I wish that they were easy to tame and keep control of.
that is going to be the next theme of the next marvel movie. the avengers are going to come together to shut down the terror of the cats
Can you imagine someone taking a walk with a lion on a leash? That would be so dope
yeah big cats are cool. and some of them are really cool and playful if you raise them from when they are young. i have seen a good amount of videos on youtube of the large cats playing with the zoo keeper or who ever it is
Have you ever thought about the toilet? I mean like where does all the stuff go after doing your business? It's something I thought of while doing my business the other day
um yeah. there are water treatment plants
I think toilets are something people take for granted... I know for a fact that a lot of the third world countries around the world don't have toilets
they take the water from the sewage and and filter it so that it can be used again. not to drink but for other stuff
It kind of makes you be grateful for sanitation. Our public bathrooms are gross but we have soap and running water to clean our hands when a lot of people around the world don't have stuff like that available
yeah there were places in my mission that people just pooped into a big whole. i did it a few times or in the old times people use to use one of their hands to clean their bum after going number two. that is nasty
Yeah I was watching a ted talk the other day that talked about sanitation that more developed countries take for granted.
well it is something that we have had for so long it is hard to be grateful for something that you never had to live without. we have never known what it is like to not have g
A lot of people, babies, kids, and adults alike die from diarrhea because of improper sanitation. The one who gave the TED talk actually mentioned that diarrhea kills
good way to stay clean
more people than HIV or AIDS but we don't talk about it more and it doesn't get enough attention.
yeah that is crazy and in alot of these countries they can not stay hydrated enough when they are sick with diarrhea
We help underdeveloped countries get clean water but because of inadequate sanitation in those areas, they don't understand that by not washing their hands, they are bringing germs that will contaminate the clean water supply
there are places that water is not so accessible and when you have diarrhea for any long period of time you ahve to drink a lot of water so you do not get more sick but they do not have the water source close enough to be able to stay hydrate
I think it's something that should go hand in hand with clean water or helping to get rid of diseases. We have to help educate people in underdeveloped countries that sanitation is something very crucial
yeah i never thought of that. if they are not clean they could be ruining their source of water. maybe not ruining it but making it less clean and making the chance for sickness to spread a lot higher.
I think once they understand something like that they can be more careful to not bring back harmful germs that not only contaminate their food and water supply but can also kill young children and babies who aren't strong enough to hold their own yet I mean even adults in those areas suffer tremendously because of dirty germs like that
i kind of want to do a humanitarian thing sometime. i think it would be a good experience. or maybe even get involved with the peace cor yeah the old and the young have it a lot harder though since their bodies just are not equipped to fight off those type of germs. they are the people who are most affected by other uncleanliness
so did i ever tell you my girlfriend is a vegetarian
no you did not how is that?
yeah she is, she always tells me eating meat is bad for you. i asked her why the other day and she told me that last year the world health organization made headlines declared processed meat a carcinogen and that it can increase your risk of colon or rectum cancer by 18 percent. but its not just processed meat that can hurt you. supposedly eating any kind of meat is bad for you. but you know what are we to do about it meat tastes so good. even though she is a vegatarian she herself eats meat every once in awhile. she says whats most important is not
i can see why people would monitor the amount they eat. we are suppose to eat meat sparing but we do not do that at all. i agree we eat meat way to much and it is not healthy
for everyone to jump on the vegitarian train but the cutting back on meat consumption in any form is a great step to take the fact remains that eating any meat hormone free or
also when you are eating meat you are not eating other foods that are better for you
not poses several serious long term risks to your health. its worth knowing what the health risks of eating any are right. so i asked her what exactly it is abou the meat that is just so bad for you so basically there have been numerous studies from top universities and independent researchers which say they found that eating chickens cows and other animals promotes cance r in many froms. in fact large studies in england and germany showed that vegetarians were about 40 percent less likely or something like that to develop cancer compared to
i do not doubt it. and cancer is a huge problem and more and more are getting it. the percentage of people that will get cancer is getting higher and higher every year i swear
meat eaters. i think the most comon were breast and prostate cancer to be exact. the number one hypothesis are used to explain the connection between meat consumptions and can cancer risk. first meat is devoid of fiber and other nutrients that have a protective effect against cancer. meat also conatins animal protein, saturated fat and in some cases
i wonder what the average age of death would be if cancer did not exist. it kills so many.
carcinogenic compounds such as heterocyclic amines and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which are formed during the processing or cooking. meat also contains hormones which i increase your cancer risk. dont ask me how i remember all this but it really stuck out to my. i was so appalled by the stuff she was telling me. I wonder about that too. it seems to me like there are more and more people that dies every year from something like cancer or heart disease. and here in america we have a very meat centric diet. think about it have you ever had a mean here that the main ingredient  wasnt meat?
i honestly would not really want to live longer than 80. by that point i feel like my body with be struggling so much it would not be very fun anymore. haha
lol im the same. its so funny, i dont know why people want to be alive when they are so old seems like it would be hard to maintain anything at that age to be honest. i was
oh i know i have noticed i eat way too much much. i would like to switch my deit but im so picking there are not alot of filling foods that i am willing to eat.
just want to take a nap and sleep eternally. meat dairy products and eggs all contain cholesterol and saturated fat and contribute to americas top killers aka heart attacks
i mean i could eat them but i would not enjoy them so i would start avoiding eating because i do not even enjoy the food i am eating Americans have the worst diet for sure.
strokes and diabetes. its so weird though because my girlfriend doesnt even crave meat anymore and even when she does eat it she doesnt feel super good. i wonder if its just because we are so used to eating it that we dont recognize that it is harming our bodies. eating meat makes it harder to maintain a healthy body weight. it carries highest ris risk of foodbourne illnesses, can cause erectile dysfunction in men, most meat had hormones in it,  and it also may make you resistant to antibiotics.  overall it increases your risk of death. so listen to this.  meat eaters just dont live as long as vegetarians and vegans. according to a study of over 70 thousand people or something, that vegeta rians were less less likely to have died during a six year followup period than their meat eating peers. vegetarian men live to an average of 83 years  compared to non vegatar
the amount of meat is definently unhealthy but it is hard to even knwo where to start to help america get past there food addiction. especially past their meat addiction.
ian men who only lived 73.8 whereas women live to an average of 86 years which is longer than 6.1 years.  the bottom line? one of the best things you can do for your health is to either eat less meat or cut out altogether. instead of contributing to the destruction of your body, the enviornment, and animals lives. youll be on the side of health sustainability and respect for all living beings. anyways long story i know but i thought it was really interesting to learn about. so do you want to hear a scary story?
yes please tell me
the bristish brig dei gratia was about four hundred miles east of the azores back in the 1800s when crew members spotted a ship adrift in the choppy seas. capt. david morehous was taken aback to discover that the unguided vessel was the mary celeste which had left new york city eight days before him and should have already arrived in genoa italy. he changed course to offer help. morehouse sent a boarding party to the ship. belowdecks the ships charts had been tossed about and the crewmens belongings were still in their quarters. the ships only lifeboat was missing and one of its two pumps had been disassembled  three and a half feet of water was sloshing in hte ships bottom though the cargo
