Abnormal Psychology
Group projects are never something I look forward to. Sure it’s fun to socailize with the people in your group, but normally you get stuck with some bum who never shows up, never has any ideas when he is there and sits there while everyone else works. We’ve all experienced that kind of group partner and I’ll never forget the time I busted a guy because I wasn’t about to let...
Maybe I should think of a career in singing?
My friend Todd and I usually get together every now and then, listen to music drink some wine and he plays the guitar and sings. Last night we did the same thing but for whatever reason I decided to join in. Now, I’m a very outgoing person as you all might have noticed, but I’m totally shy when it comes to singing infront of people.
I seem to think I’m pretty good. My singing...
Pork Rinds. In the same catagory as Spam...
Have you ever seen anyone eating Pork Rinds? When riding the bus this afternoon, I witnessed an actual person consuming them. There are several myths about how the ingredients react to the human body so I thought I would do a little hunting to find out some dirt on this mysterious snack.
Pork Rinds, known to the English as pork scratchings and pork crackle in Australia are made from the skins of...
Internet!! Obsess much?
I’ll never forget the day I found out that people used this thing on their computers called the World Wide Web. What is this? I wondered. At first, I was totally addicted to downloading music online. I couldn’t believe this was possible! The idea of not having to download the entire album was seriously amazing. Sitting in front of my computer for 30 minutes just waiting for one song to...
I'm so over the cowardly lion. Let's move on...
Drew Peterson feeds off all of the attention the media is giving him so we need to take the spotlight off him. He wants the interviews, he wants the stories, he wants the cameras in his face! NBC did an exclusive interview with both Peterson and his current 24-year-old fiance. Stacy Peterson has still not be found so I don’t see why this young woman would put her life in danger by being with...
Hearts and such
I always enjoy holidays. They give me a reason to act silly, dress silly and just plain have fun. Valentines Day is no exception to this rule. I think I’ve had an actual “Valentine” once out of all my years on planet earth. Having a Valentine is not what makes Valentines Day special, I think it’s just being around people who you love.
I like hearts, I like drawing them,...
What's the fate of journalism?
As the months go by I feel less and less inclined to take a job in the journalism field. The job cuts, the shrinking newspaper/magazine companies, the madness. Sure the economy is bad, but there are still jobs available. Jobs are shrinking in this field particularly though. I feel that journalism is changing. Now that people can get the news through their cell phones and on the web, most of them...
Potty Training Is A Bitch
I have a Yorkie, Minnie, who is 7 months old and at this point I believe she’s out to ruin my life. Having a puppy is almost like having a child, maybe it’s even worse than that. For the past few months, I’ve been determined to help her master the skill of using the toilet outdoors.
This morning is the perfect example of why I might go insane and suffer from cardiac arrest by...
