24 S1 - rankings


ok, the workout post is gonna have to wait.

In an attempt to catch up on 24 before season 6 starts (yes I'm a little behind), I've just completed watching the 24hrs of season 1. As the true colours of the characters are revealed, I am beginning to develop a liking for some and disdain for others. This list is probably dated for most readers, but it's where I stand at the moment, and I'm curious to see how the rankings will change as "time" passes on.

Here's my top 4 and bottom 3 for now. The list will fill as the episodes wear on..

01. David Palmer (man of integrity)
02. Jack Bauer (hero)
03. Tony Almeida (astute)
04. Andre Drazen (ruthless)
05.

95.
96.
97. Alberta Green (just a bad actor)
98. Keith Palmer (the spawn of satan)
99. Sherry Palmer (the devil herself)

Cork Open '06


If you ever want to visit Cork, it appears Cork Ulti Open weekends (first weekend of Nov) are the days to do it cuz we're ALWAYS blessed with good weather year after year. No matter if it's torrential rains the days before or after the Open, it's always sunny and warm topless weather on the days of. I would post more pics but blogger keeps messing up the images so maybe later.

We had teams at the Open from the UK, Northern Ireland, Italy, Scotland, and of course Dublin. There were both club teams as well as univ teams in attendance with sixteen teams in total. We finished 3rd, which is worth celebrating cuz it's our best finish ever at our own tourney, AND we were the only team to beat the eventual winners. Good on ya UCC.

Next post: Why I go to the gym.
