Productivity

This is why online courses are dangerous for me. The little video of the lady in the corner, is actually my professor for social psychology giving my class of 250 students an important lecture. Obviously my priorities were elsewhere.

The size of the windows on my screen is a pretty accurate ratio of how much I care about the class versus playing poker.

Another Celebrity Dead this Month!

It seems like July is a Bad Month if you are famous. The Grim Reaper must have it out for Hollywood.

So Far, Michael Jackson, Billy Mayes, Farrah Fawcet, and Walter Cronkite have all passed away this month. And now death has taken one more, Gidget, the Taco Bell dog.

Rest in Peace my old friend.

Never too proud

Ok, Ok, Ok...So you guys might have noticed that I have been getting a little crazy blogging.

I have now started a third blog to write on as well. It is called never too proud. It is about all the embarrassing gross things that people do that they never admit.

Below is a list of the few topics I will be talking about on the site. Their will be a new topic posted everyday on the blog. More about what the blog is about can be found in my first post, titled, "The Inspiration."

Topics to be discussed (if you have any suggestions, please comment.) I have 100 topics already to write about, here are ten, not listed in any order of publish date or importance:

1.) Picking your nose in the Car
2.) Using the internet to Score free porn
3.) Farting in public, then leaving the scene of the crime
4.) Masterbate

6.) Measured the size of your penis (men only)

Just got done writing my longest blog post

I just finished writing my longest blog post to date. It can be seen at http://bettingonballers.blogspot.com

I hope the site gets talked about enough to attract more readers to it. Makes the writing more worth it.


Oooooo, btw, My class project for the Sky Diet went well, pretty sure my group will get a perfect score.

Project for class

This is some project that I have to do for one of my classes. We have to market and talk about this fictitious new Diet.

The whole presentation has to be 15 minutes.

Betting on Ballers.

In recognition of my previous post, I have come to realize that I seperate myself from most successful bloggers by not having a specific topic to write about that I am passionate about.

As a solution to this, I have started a an new blog in addition to this one. It is called "Betting on Basketball".

It gives me the opportunity to talk about one of my favorite sports, NBA basketball. Please visit the blog and if you like it, please follow and subscribe to it. It can be found at http://bettingonballers.blogspot.com

I will still update this blog from time to time about things happening in my life, but it won't be as frequent as I will be at http://bettingonballers.blogspot.com

sincerly,

eMerging bloggers!

Obviously I don't tend to this blog that often. I have few subscribers and fewer posts. Never the less I often get reminded or inspired to post something on here. Last month, when my roomate Dave started his blog as an experiment to expose his talented fictional writing to a wider audience, I was inspired to make a post of my own.

Yesterday, I ran into Joe Lencioni, a friend of mine and an old roomate whom I haven't seen in a while. He also has recently began writing on a blog, which once again has reminded me to tend to my own.

So today, I would like to recognize some new writers on the scene (besides myself) Who everyone should check out:

1.) David Ebner -

http://davidjebner.blogspot.com/

David has a degree in Creative Writing from the University of South Florida, and is currently sharing some of his writing on his blog.

2.) Joe Lencioni -

http://phishcoventry.blogspot.com/

Old roommate and friend of mine, who is now a contributer of the Phish Coventry blog. The blog discuses music and other random tales.

3.) Michelle Esrig -

http://michellemakescakes.blogspot.com/

The name of this blog speaks for its self. Michelle is currently enrolling in classes to learn how to decorate cakes. You can track her progress on her blog.

Trials and Tribulations

My roomate David Ebner left a shit ton of Dishes in our kitchen sink, and then left on a three week vacation, so I had to do them all. Since then i've been on his case about it.
God, he is such an incredible Douche.

You guys should check out his blog at www.davidjebner.blogspot.com


That is pretty much all that is going on in my life at the moment, besides school.

Sasha Puppy!

I love this video of Sasha. I figured this would be a fun way to test out posting videos on this blog.

Its of Sasha having fun with a massager. She either thinks it is a toy, or is confusing it with a living creature.

It's About time.

It seems as though most people I know these days are writing their own blogs about themselves. Whether it be a simple twitter broadcast, facebook, or myspace account, it has gotten to the point that society publishes most of their life on the front page of a "digital newspaper."

So, I have decided to conform to blogging myself, and start a blog of my own on blogspot.com. People always seem to ask me on an almost daily basis, "what are you up to these days?" anyway, so if people are that interested, then i will go ahead an publish my life for them.

I hope patrons to this blog find it interesting.
