FAIL!

I know I am guilty of horrible spelling and poor grammar... but this is just too funny not to post. Eric goes to KU and Adam goes to K-State

Eric
not seeing why a mascot has to be a real thing, pretty sure it just has to represent something. Oh and I'm hunting on the internet and I'm not finding anything actually called a wildcat living in Kansas, let alone North America. But it does say the domestic cat is a descendant of the wildcat...so I guess if we're a bunch of made up birds...you're all a bunch worthless pussies

Adam
Jesus.... it's called a comment not a short story

Eric
Sorry they keep shoving this liberal artsy fartsy homo education down our throats. Didn't mean to whip out the full sentences.

Eric
What is the story behind the wildcat anyway? I'm actually curious to know

Adam
If you would like to get technical your grammer and sentax was actually terrible in your "comment" hehe

WTF??? way to spell grammar and syntax wrong.. in a grammatically incorrect sentence...

I found this on the internet without a name for who wrote it. But I totally agree with them!

The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. It takes up most of your time, and what do you get at the end? A death. I think it should all go backwards. You should die first, to get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you’re too young, then you go to work. You work forty... years until you’re young enough to enjoy your retirement. You drink, you party, you get ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating, then you finish off as an orgasm.

Sooo Bored

So it has long been a part of me to procrastinate. Hardcore style.
Well, I have come up with a solution. Take classes only on Monday Wednesday and Friday. Annd, make yourself get up by 9 am. I have discovered there is only so much time I can spend sitting on my futon. After about an hour and a half of sitting trying to find something to do on the internet I will start picking up after my self from the day before. Once that is done I check my planner and see what kind of homework I have. I still don't like the idea of homework so I don't do it right away. I go back to the internet for about 40 minutes before I realize again how pointless it is to keep refreshing my facebook profile because nothing is going to change. FINALLY I will actually get out my homework and do some :) by this time it is about 12 or 1. I get disgruntled by the thought of homework though so my enthusiasm for it does not last long. By 1:30 I will give up again. But since I haven't left my room all day I start getting antsy and want to get out. So I put on my running shoes and go running :) When I'm back from my run I have enough endorphins to get me through another hour of homework before I want to nap and eat dinner. After dinner I get bored again and seeing as I have done everything possible to avoid homework I have left I do it!
So maybe my procrastination has not been cured... but I'm learning to live with it :D

One of the many reasons I am a vegetarian

I was just reading random pages from Fast Food Nation by Eric Schlosser, damn, it is scary! There were all these descriptions of things that have happened in meat packing plants. The rumors about getting fingers in chicken nuggets and stuff sound like they are probably true after reading about it. I wonder if Mike Rowe would ever do a Dirty Jobs episode on the people that clean the places. In the book I read that illegal immigrants get paid 1/3 less than the people that work in the day and there job discription is 1000 times worse. They spray every inch of the plant with presurized water mixed with chlorine at 180 degrees :( apperentley there is so much steam the people can't see each other and burn one another with the water. Not to mention the perils they go through to clean the conveyor belts meat grinders and vents caked with blood and fat raised 30 feet in the air.
If that is not a good reason to stay away from meat I don't know what is.

Miracles

The woman I dog sit for, needed an emergency dog sitter because her daughter was in a horrible car wreck, I don’t know exactly what happened. Essentially her daughter was thrown from her vehicle and has second and third degree burns on 40% of her body. She also has two breaks in her first vertebrae along with a broken foot and skull fracture. It is a miracle she is alive.

This all happened six months ago but it still amazes me. I saw her the other day and she looked great. Like nothing had happened. I can't say I believe in god, but this makes me wonder.

Abortion

I was reading today about a man who went to a church and shot an usher because his day job was being a doctor at an abortion clinic. The man thought he was saving unborn children's lives by killing this doctor. Well, I am sure some one has informed him now, but what about the mothers who can not support a child that went to the doctor for help? What if now the embryo that tuned into a child because the doctor did not stop it is two years old and starving. Or in the future they are 8 years old and struggling in school because they have to stay up and help their mother with other children that are hungry because the doctor was not around to help? I think it is sad that people refuse to look past the "killing of babies" (which are really just a few cells without any feeling or thoughts much like skin that gets scraped off when we fall off a bike but much much smaller) to see the greater good that is being done. Perhaps the mother went to the doctor because she would die if she were to have the baby? Shouldn’t we try to save the actual person living and breathing that has already worked so hard in life?

Selflessness of Selfishness?

Maybe it is just me but right now I am thinking that monks are pretty selfish people. Maybe not all of them. But from what I learned in my Eastern religion monks care about obtaining peace and well being in this life and the next. That is, obtaining peace for themselves in this life and the next. I know that Gandhi changed the world. But that is not the type of monk I am talking about. I mean the men that go into seclusion in the mountains and pray all day until they become enlightened and teach others to do the same on the mountain until death. Yes, these monks believe that they should show kindness, but isn't the underlying reason they think this way to get good karma for themselves? I don’t imagine monks go too far out of their way to help those in need. I know all that sounds pretty horrible to think about people I don’t know much about. I have read a few books on monkhood written by monks in China and Japan though, and they were fairly consistent with what I said above.
This all came up because I was just thinking to myself - Life is horrible. Death and misery are all around. Pressing on us every day. I thought to my self - maybe I will just go join a nunnery or something. Then I won't have to worry about all the troubles of the world. I can just focus on finding peace within my self. Well immediately I realized the only way I will ever find peace in myself is knowing that I personally went out and fought for what was right. I will find peace knowing I got dirty and helped people face to face.
I was lucky enough to be born into America with a family who is able to send me to school. Why not take advantage of that and learn something in school that will really help the people living in our amazing world that can't enjoy it because they haven't eaten in a week or have no legs to go places or eyes to see them with?
