I have a really hard time looking at facebook these days. I've never been a facebook type of guy and when I go on there these days and read the one line section "Religious Views" it makes me seriously question humanity. I'm cool with people typing, "Christian" or "Catholic" or "Mormon." What gets me is when people type "Servant of God" or "Jesus is Life" or any other ridiculous claim that involves the use of a noun and then God/Jesus/The Bible or a statement about how dedicated you are towards a being in a book. I understand that people want to spread the good word or whatever and inform people that they do, indeed, believe that Jesus/God exists, but what grinds my gears is these crazy statements. Look dude I've never met, you're going to have to give me a little bit more of an explanation about your religious views than "Servant of God." How exactly do you go about serving god? Does typing "Servant of God" get some street cred points with that invisible guy in the sky?
Whatever, I'm cool with people believing what they want to believe, I should probably just delete Facebook. I'm not even friends with most of my facebook "friends" anyways. Twitter is the new hipness.
Another TERRIBLE Post! I'm on that bell curve, hopefully not the middle!

What doesn't break a man, makes a man.
This post is a couple weeks old, I also participated in a "debate" with the author of the article in question after I wrote this little diatribe. That "debate" didn't go to well for moi, but whatevs!
So I'm sitting in class reading (At least I went!) The Daily Barometer article (http://media.barometer.orst.edu/media/storage/paper854/news/2010/03/04/Forum/Attraction.Is.It.Really.Just.A.Numbers.Game-3884374.shtml?reffeature=popuarstoriestab) titled, "Attraction: Is it really just a numbers game?" I'm reading interesting quotes such as, "we all have a number," and "you may date someone within one number of yourself," and I'm thinking to myself, "This is one interesting read!! I wonder what number I am? Probably a 5! I'm a 'the glass is half full' kind of guy!" While I tend to agree with some of the points Ms. Lorts makes one may wonder about the actual emphasis placed on physical attractiveness throughout the article. The article promotes the idea that physical attractiveness is the end all be all of college romantic relationships, unless you are 22 years old.
I'm all for students finding other students attractive, but using the "area code" or "numbers game" form of judgment does one not become a cynic? It would seem that using these "number games" one would have to use a doubtful mindset at times. A random person would think to thyself, "Oh, I'm a 6, that guy/lady who is a 10 won't hook up with me." Well, folks please don't let these numbers get in your head, take advice from 2010's premiere relationship expert, A DAD (via Shit my dad says), "Son (Or Daughter!). Let women (Or Men!) figure out why they won't screw you, don't do it for them."

Dreams
I had a dream last night. I don’t dream all that often, at least I don’t remember my dreams all that often. In said dream I was inside a 2 story house setting up a concert for, get this, De La Soul and Jurassic 5.
Jurassic 5 was about to perform, the show was going to start and I was like, “Where is Charlie Tuna?” One of the members looks around in bewilderment and then I started rapping Charlie Tuna’s verse from “What’s Golden,” the member who was looking around confused joined in and we had a singalong. And then, because of my rapping skillzzzzz, J5 realized they can’t have a J5 show without Charlie Tuna and the members of J5 were like, “Let’s call him up!” So they did.
Charlie Tuna then arrives and he's all tired, he had just woken up. "Man, why we playing all these small shows lately, welp, at least you got my ass out of bed." Charlie Tuna said inside of my dream.
Then, because there was nobody inside this house I started thinking to myself, "how in the hell is J5 going to play for a room comprised of the members of De La Soul, me, and 3 other random people?" So I walk down the stairs and then outside the 2 story house and there is this bbq/party going on across the street filled with hipsters. I just walk up and start yelling, “Hey everybody, there is a hip-hop show happening in that house (I then pointed to the house), does anyone like hip-hop?” And then I start asking individual hipsters, “Do you like hip-hop? Do you like hip-hop?” Then I yell again, “It’s a free show. It features Jurassic 5 and De La Soul.” And finally a few people are like, “yeah! I like hip-hop, lets go” and start filing into the house. And then I woke up.

She dreams about dreamin' when she goes to sleep
Business!!!!!
I just finished my second to last business class!!! It was great! Some girl in the class called the professor an asshole, others of us just straight up cheated on the test, one guy after he was finished with his test yelled in a very emphatic manner, "I think I passed. I think I passed." That was rad. Business is great!!!! The professor for this class, Strategic Management, is very old, 70 something years old (to be exact!). He laughs at jokes about rulers, especially jokes that relate to the ruler mafia who have stolen all the left handed rulers! He talks about the Apollo mission quite a bit, supposedly he worked on this (I think it was a mission to the moon or something, I wasn't alive!!!!). He also talks about pacemakers quite a bit, this is great! He used to work at Medtronic which is a engineering firm in Minnesota and at Medtronic he was a successful engineer, he worked on pacemakers. Throughout the term he presented to the class the evolution of pacemakers, the class was intrigued!!!! So he talked about Pacemakers, The Apollo Mission, and his daily bike rides! His daily bike ride stories are usually pretty lame, he talks about how he rides 10 miles a day or something. My business group partner Garrett said today that he hopes to one day be driving and see our professor riding his bike. Garrett is a good guy but he really hates our professor.
Anyways, another quality post!!!!!!!!
Last Business test tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Strategic Management!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Down On Lovin, The Soft Pack
So I have this friend who I host a radio show with. His name is Mervin and he has some interesting views on females. I would not call him a "ladies man" and he is very good at making obscure references that 99% of college age girls not comprehend. And he is an economics major which makes his perspective on this world very black and white. What is so interesting about Mervin is he always talks about how he needs to get laid, but this dude never goes to parties (That is where the magic happens! By "magic" I mean having sex with a random girl or random guy, shoutout to the folk who have had sex with a random guy and a random girl in the same night at different times, that is an impressive feat that only a true people person (or attractive person or drugged out individual) could accomplish! So Mervin does not attend parties yet he is looking to get laid. What is a person to do in this predicament? I think I have come up with a solution. GET INTO PORN! This is the perfect scenario for a person like Mervin.
Here is a description of porn that is great:
Porn, in general is a wild and crazy thing. It’s (sometimes) beautiful women and men doing something that’s really, really fun, but for whatever reason the lions share of the people who do it have terrible unhealthy relationships with fucking. It’s such a weird and wild scene. That’s like if the only people in the NBA were people that hated basketball or had serious trauma because their dads used to sneak in to their room at night and make em practice lay ups.
Mervin probably will not be getting involved with Porn. The barriers to entry to be an actor in that industry are probably pretty high (About as high as the performers). With the barriers being as they are I was thinking that maybe Mervin should start his own Porn Production company, the barriers to entry in this regard are very low. I read that most boom mic operators (all they really do is hold a mic) in the industry quit within the first week because the work environment is so fucking crazy (because of the crazy fucking). Yes, Mervin should use his economic prowess and apply it to the porn industry!
This post has no real conclusion and did not really go anywhere, it's a pretty fake post, sorta like porn.

Get back on those horses
Ok, so life has been crazy these past few months. By far the craziest time in my life thus far, I like to think I've lived a pretty adventurous life, but recently it has been quite exciting! These last few months, your grandparents (and mine for that matter) could only imagine such things when they were in their hayday!
I'm making an hour-two hour long radio rockumentary type thing showcasing the ups and downs and wins and losses, the little things in life. Life is a crazy place. I have decided to be open to any and all possibilities (throughout my life). This may may not be the best plan of action but fuck it, I'm tired of thinking about a "career." I've decided to create things, and I don't even care what I create. I'm tired of thinking about girls and love and such. I've decided to ask random girls out, if they show interest, cool, if not that is cool as well. Get really really good at asking girls out on dates, that sounds like a challenge, and fun too! We all get so down when it comes to relationships, I've decided to take the route of getting up and getting out (Like Dropkick Murphys said!). Recently I dated a girl, Callie, for a little while and that, while it was a good experience, drained me like half empty beer cans after a huge house party. Then I started hanging out with Sarah Ing every once in a while and that was amazing. Sarah Ing is amazing, but I've decided being around her is not a good tactic. It's not good for the soul, brother (Shoutout Born Ruffians new single)! I need to tell her this whole, "uh, yeah, Sarah, I've decided to stop hanging out with you, you're really cool and I'm not, so it just makes sense that we don't hang out, I mean do you see Conan O'Brien (Sarah) hanging out with Britney Spears (me!)? 3 months left in Corvallis, they will be used to create as much content as I can possibly create. There are many creative people in this town to converse with and bounce ideas off of and I only have to work a couple days a week and time, time is very precious to me and I don't know how much I have left, and I have some things I would like to accomplish. So accomplish things, starting with this here ol' blog. Everyday Sista, I will be writing and shucking and jiving, creating freshness, get ready blog, I'm like Mike Tyson when he bit off that other boxers ear (What does that even mean?).
Do want often!
Put on your mean jeans!
