Shadow over Olympics

A day before the opening ceremony for the Vancouver Olympics, during a training run for the world's fastest luger track (google it), a member of the Georgian luger team slid to his death at a bend late in his run. I heard this, and I was literally speechless. I was in complete disbelief until I checked it out for myself. The feeling surrounding the Olympics always seemed clean, and by that I mean a flawless gathering of countries to compete fairly for themselves and their countries' pride. It kind've brought me back down to earth. Imagine how that family feels, supporting that person throughout his athletic career, and having this happen to him a day before the Olympics. His teammates who trained alongside him, but now won't be able to see him compete, after hearing him talk about it, seeing work hard for it, it's ridiculous. A pair of US olympic athletes came to my school to speak for a while, and it was surprising how much time and effort they put into just being able to qualify for the Olympics, and though this goes for any untimely death, it really made me aware of the fact that I could die at any point in my life. I'm going to college*, going to Med school, etc etc, and I this whole plan I have laid out in front me might abruptly come to an end. It makes me wonder, should I just do what I really like doing (art) instead of pursuing something I'm sort of interested in that's definitely going to lead to a 'successful' career economically. This always leads to an extended period of confusion, frustration, and eventually a somber realization that I'm gonna end up sticking to the plan laid out in front of me.

ANYWAY.

* I got into Clarkson University and Manhattan College. =) A lot of pressure was taken off but another 12 colleges reply in about a month. Oh boy. Wish me luck .

iPaid 500 for this?

Public School Kids a.k.a ANIMALS

Andre Bauer, the Lt. Governor of South Carolina, while talking about the public school system in South Carolina, mentioned that doling out free lunches in large supplies to the public school children was like feeding stray animals, and as his grandmother told him (that's for real, he said this), you never feed stray animals because they end up reproducing.
Feeding public school kids is bad because the more shitty Costco pizza's you give them, the higher their chances are of f***ing.
You crazy guy you.

In his defense , Mr. Bauer stated that he wasn't comparing them to stray animals
(Phew!)
but he WAS talking about a "dependency culture," where just as you feed animals and they become dependent on you, so will these kids.
(Shit.)

Olbermann's gotta do another worst person ever piece cuz this motrukka is out of his mind.

In the words of Mawt, I give you 'Barack McCain'

Obama plans an announcing a spending freeze that will most likely stay active for the rest of his term.

What. The.

Faced with 'political backlash,' Obama has given in to the crap being tossed around, and quite frankly, at a time when HE CAN DO WHATEVER HE WANTS. I mean not really whatever, but you don't have to stop all your spending, cut it down, spread it out over time, not just stop. The freeze is supposed to save 250 billion dollars.

Wonder what they're gonna do with those 250 billion in a few years if our economy ( very weak and feeble 'if') is still crap?
Some people might be saying that, well finally after spending so much on bailouts and crap, he needs to stop. But that's not all that this 'freeze' covers.

"The freeze would cover the agencies and programs for which Congress allocates specific budgets each year, including air traffic control, farm subsidies, education, nutrition and national parks." (NY Times)

Not a big deal right? Only EVERYTHING to do with our country. Except defense. They're going strong in defense, and Social Security, and Medicare/Medicaid, which happen to be the fastest growing federal programs, so good move there. I guess its not all bad.

We'll have to wait till Wed. and the State of the Union address.

Oh lawd.

DAS A HOOOGE CHIP MAN!

That is a chip from this bag of UTZ i bought for the Saints Vs Vikings game. Thas a huge chip man! The kit kat is there for comparison, I would've used a quarter, but I spent them on the Kit Kats in the picture. But anyway, that chip's bigger than a friggin Pringle. UTZ has officially climbed the respect ladder, Wise is gonna have to step up their game. Speaking of game (BOOM!) this Vikings/Saints is an AWESOME game. These teams are just goin back and forth, constantly keeping it tied with amazing plays. Tis awesome. Sucks about the Jets, they had a good run, but Peyton can't help but be Peyton man.


P.S. I hate the new Lexus commercials with the Lexus- Batsignal thingy. Boo.

Darn Sweet Tooth!

Two sweet-toothed men are bitter after being mistakenly arrested
for possession of crack cocaine. "I spent five days in jail for
possession of coconut candy," said 33-year-old dad Cesar
Rodriguez, who works as a plumber's assistant.

THAT'S HILARIOUS.
I am obviously sympathetic with these innocent men, but seriously? Cops held them for 5 days. FIVE DAYS! How can you not differentiate between coconut candy and cocaine in 120 hours (you like that math). I do believe my 6 yr old. sister could tell the difference between them, though she'd be running the risk of being a coke addict before puberty. That would womp. Ah well.

I had three SAT subject tests today, think I did pretty well on em, and then I had a squash match and I BEASTED. Twas a good day. Bout to go see The Book of Eli. Hope its dope. We out.
