The last few weeks are pretty much a blur at this point. I realized today that its been 18 days since I last decided to blog. I can't seem to really remember what was going on 18 days ago other than my friend being in the hospital having blacked out on his birthday. Of course …

And I am not…
While TLC has its fair share of garbage shows like the infamously horrid "Toddlers and Tiaras," the notoriously controversial "Sister Wives," and the laughable yet lovable "Cake Boss" tonight my wife and I watched a new show that is pretty interesting. The show called "All-American Muslim" follows the lives of several families in Dearborn, Michigan …
the men, the myths, the legends… JoePa and Luther
For the past several days now it seems the biggest news story has involved college football icon Joe Paterno. Last night both the president of the university and JoePa were removed from their respective positions. But I wonder why so many people are clamoring for more.

death sucks
Today when I woke up I had hoped the news from last night would have changed. However, this morning only confirmed the truth I knew the night before, Ozzie Guillen is no longer the skipper for, in my opinion, the greatest baseball team ever to take the field, The Chicago White Sox. A lot of …

Although it is by no means early in the night I should be going to bed. I have to leave the house in less than 8 hours so that I can get my wife to work and then get back for class, all the while fighting the wonderful traffic of the city I love. Its …
never forget
I'm sure it was difficult for any of us to ignore or be ignorant of the significance of today. Turn on the TV, check the paper, watch the opening of the football season, go to church, and a whole host of other activities served to remind me of the date. 9/11. To be sure this …
