RPI 2011-12 Part VI: Sweet Meteor of Death

I am not exactly sure-but i think the tower on top of Blue Mountain which has been up there for over 5 years is AT&T. Coverage around us is still incredibly spotty as one would suspect with most of the peaks at 3500 feet or higher and roads winding through much lower. I am a novice at this kind of stuff so i am not sure what towers allow you to connect to them. For example, Audi uses T-Mobile as its internet connection and i wonder if that would allow connection to the verizon or AT&T towers up in the Adirondacks?

I highly doubt it. Granted, I typically shut off my telephone when I go up there, as constantly searching for a signal drains the batteries.

I don't think the band has much to worry about with Luke protecting them-If I got into a bar fight somewhere, I think I would want Luke on my side (along with my wife Jenny with her notorious Italian temper)

Don't forget babo.

Excellent story in the TU about the band, and Luke Curadi (and babo!) sticking up for them at Clarkson.

EDIT: Clarkson sucks.

Wow. That's like band porn.

Wow. That's like band porn.

I'm ecstatic any time we get mentioned in an game recap (or the like), so this was certainly quite fun. It will go up on the Pep Band closets next to Brian Sullivan's write-up on us from the playoffs a few years ago and the letters we've received from players/alumni over the years.

Story on Merriam: http://collegehockeyinc.com/articles...-bryce-merriam

I believe it's now 7 years since a dessert course.

Nice article. Dare I ask what you mean be dessert course?

When Bryce Merriam and his classmates (Pirri, D'Amigo, Lee, O'Grady, I think Watts also) were invited to Coach's house for a welcoming dinner, the Mrs. started to bring out the dessert course, and Bryce mentioned he hadn't had dessert, or any foods similar to it, in 4 years. We're three years later now, so it's 7.

I had forgotten that.

There's about 10 RPI'ers going to the ECAC championships: http://www.rpitv.org/news_updates/11...-championships

Hopefully we can get about 30 more there with this weekend's efforts.

Dude-Count us as going only if RPI is there. We have a long list of people who want our tickets if we do not go.

I wouldn't say worst of the worst, but agree in the general categorization. However, I'm going to take referee favour with a grain of salt because of what happened last week when we had Kotyra at the helm (Friday/Sunday) vs. two refs I thought were very favourable to us (Saturday).
