Just good Fundamentals



You better watch out for this guy on the football field. Hopefully he doesn't play I-M football here @ EIU.

Well the NYC trip is pretty much set in stone now that we have reservations at the New Yorker for 3 nights. I am very excited to kick off my abundant travel throughout the better part of my twenties and throughout the rest of my life. I figure since I have not been on many vacations or trips I have some making up to do. I have another trip to Las Vegas planned for a few days in June to see my cousin Kevin get married. Not to be a "downer" but I'm a lot more excited to go to NYC than Vegas, but I am very excited to be in Vegas with a lot of my family members. I don't think Vegas is somewhere I would go on my own, or my own money for that matter. It should be a pretty good family vacation #2.

Can I get a puff of smoke with that?

Firstly, A gloomy day here in Charleston and for some reason I think I like it. The cold grey skies contrast the bright warm autumn leaves. I don't know if it is because the weeks are flying by or I am just crazy, but it seems as if autumn and the changing of the leaves is going way too fast. I awoke this morning to the majority of the leaves falling off of the trees. I think that autumn is making a pretty strong case for best season. Summer is pretty hot, winter is pretty cold, spring would be the normal front runner however, when spring rolls around I am so sick of the cold that I want it to be summer right away. Spring doesn't understand that and will randomly throw in a giant snow storm in the middle of March. NO ONE wants snow once march rolls around and nasty mother nature has teased us all with a 70 degree weekend once. Autumn doesn't lie to you like that. You know the cold is on its way, and there is no suprise there. I am also sick of the heat right now, and when is the last time in the middle of October that it has been uncomfortably hot out? I don't remember any such instances.
In closing, go Autumn and powerwriting

I decided after writing that last line that I would throw it back to the writing techniques that they taught us in grade school that were considered the worst writing style EVER!

You're right, he probably didn't do steroids

I was a little bored and thought I would compare one of my favorite players pictures from early in his career to the post steroid era. Most people realize after a few years in the league that they are way to strong for their own good and they should cut back on the working out. That must have been what he was thinking. Texas is then, Tigers is now.
