It Could Be Worse
Yesterday, on day 1 of vacation 2 with my girlfriend, we were involved in a single-car accident (everyone is ok). Going down a backwoods highway in Mississippi, a big rig must have blown out a tire and the rubber portion was laying flat in the left hand lane. The car in front of me swerved at the…

A couple of months ago, I heard a rumor that FSU may be changing the iconic Chief Osceola logo at the spring game this year. I, as were most of the fan base, were abhorred at the possibility of changing it. Why would they change something with such tradition? What’s the need? So, I…
Read More »Bipartite Nature of Our Government System
Tonight, as I observed the State of the Union address while working on homework, a few things that I had been noticing earlier were clearly observant. Many people think our government has problems and I would tend to agree most of the time. The problem is we want to blame one side or the other,…

“we are starting the Jimmy V Foundation for Cancer Research. And it’s motto is ‘Don’t give up, don’t ever give up.’ That’s what I’m going to try to do every minute that I have left. I will thank God for the day and the moment I have. If you see me, smile and give me…

So, a couple of days ago I am scouring the internet getting ready for the Super…. I mean the Big Game. I come across this story about Colin Kaepernick (who I mysteriously can’t read enough about) done by Rick Reilly (who I’ve read too much by). SOURCE: http://espn.go.com/espn/story/_/id/8897116/colin-kaepernick-birth-mom So, this article is basically saying, “Colin Kaepernick…

I was scouring the web today, and I came across an interesting story about R.A. Dickey – that awesome knuckleballer that the Mets let slide over to the Blue Jays. Source link: Blue Jays ace R.A. Dickey fights child sex trafficking in India So anyways, I read this article and it got the wheels turning. I…
Read More »The Anti-Social Nature of Social Networking
We live in a world DOMINATED by “social networking.” I use the term loosely as I believe that the name is actually the antithesis on the implementation. Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Tumblr, LinkedIn, etc. have completely deconstructed our social beings while making us feel good about ourselves and all of our connections. Even texting as a…

Sunday, the Ravens clinched a bid to the Super Bowl in Ray Lewis’s farewell tour of the year. So I did what any sports fanatic would do (or so I thought), I took to Twitter to congratulate #52 on making it because he is just a great dude. Much to my surprise, the vast majority…
