2 years, smoke free!
I quit smoking two years ago yesterday. So glad about that. I don't miss it. Actually, now it repulses me. Now I just wish some of the people I love and care about would quit that shit before it kills them.

The Battle for Pennsylvania
This was amusing to me, seeing all the philly/steeler fans at the bar that afternoon for the football game between their respective clubs. I decided to make slogans for the game.
"The battle for Pennsylvania! Where the winner still loses"
"The Battle for Pennsylvania! Brought to you by Yuengling........and Vomit."
"The battle for Pennsylvania! May the best fans puke."

How much would you pay to see FUGAZI at Ft. Reno?
I would pay a lot. I would love to see them live. I think if we got enough DC kids that now maybe have a little money, we could get them to play a show, if nothing else for the love of money, as we all enjoy the love of the music.

Scholars and rogues post
Question, not comment to begin discussion. What do rational, logical thinking people like myself in the face of such hypocrisy? I feel that the backlash alone from the current administration's corruption should pave the way for a landslide Democratic victory, no matter who runs. Yet here we stand with a candidate who has a lot of potential (I agree he is still raw), and we're sitting in the middle of a tight race. The manipulations of the facts by the "liberal media" (the term itself is a manipulation) for the personal gain of the conservative agenda are the reason people don't sleep well at night. Why can't people open their eyes to how poor things have become so quickly, and how they have been manipulated their entire lives? The fact that the information and details of the current administration's wrongdoings haven't resulted in impeachments and criminal convictions leads me to entirely lose faith in the system at large. Do I give in, and let things slide? Do I speak up and fight, only to lose the fight, as well as the time and energy I wasted trying to point out the truth? I understand I have always had somewhat of a skewed world view, due to my reluctance to believe everything I was told, but this is ridiculous. I don't want to fight a losing battle, and if no one else is going to realize the truth, then I might as well stop paying attention. I'd personally be much more happy if that was an option for me.

Cougar on the loose!
The following is reprinted from Friday’s Washington Post.
Large Cat Spotted at College Park Campus

The University of Maryland and the state Department of Natural Resources searched the College Park campus today in response to reports that a cougar may have been prowling a wooded area, and later a small portion of Route 1 in Downtown.
What appeared to be a large cat was spotted drinking a Starbucks latte about 6 a.m. near University Boulevard, said Capt. John Brandt, a spokesman for the university's Department of Public Safety. By late afternoon, the animal had been spotted several times, but hadn't been caught on camera or seen by police. They did say, however, she was spotted outside of local bar Thirsty Turtle catcalling young men.
The animal was described as light tan and tawny brown wearing skin tight designer jeans, about 4 feet long with a 4-foot tail, and weighing about 50 pounds, which is well below average for her age, Brandt said. The size and extensive plastic surgery scars seemed to indicate that the animal was a cougar. Cougars are not native to Maryland; experts say they've not lived wild in the area since the mid-1800s. Experts also went on to say they tend to "go wild" on weekend nights when they get a babysitter.
Glenn Therres, associate director for wildlife and heritage service with the Department of Natural Resources, said no zoo in the area had reported any escaped cats. Keeping a cougar or any potentially dangerous cat such as a lion or tiger is illegal in Maryland, Therres said. Confronting one in the wild can often lead to an easy lay.
"We get 20, 30 reports of cougars in the state of Maryland each year, mostly in entertainment districts and soccer fields." Therres said. "Its interesting to see them in such close proximity to so many young men", "We have yet to be able to confirm any cougar [sighting]."
Brandt said that the animal seen had not shown aggressive tendencies but that it should not be approached without copious amounts of alcohol and a kickin’ bod.
"Dear God citizens, do not, under any circumstances get wrapped up with a cougar. Its more [trouble] than its worth," Brandt said. "it’s always fun for a couple of dates and then Bam!"
"We're obviously concerned," Brandt said. "We're going to be looking hard because we don't know what the threat is." "we need to see if she's even hot"
