So, my bro Dylan made me this blog for my birthday. I figure I should start posting things.
First, a little background about me: I'm currently 25 years old. I live in downtown, baltimore (or b-mo as those in the know call it) right near camden yards. I'm a dental student at the university of maryland dental school and plan to be a rich-succesful dentist or, if that doesn't work out, a professional ninja.
Lets see, more about me... I love to play sports. I'm a member of a football team in the baltimore sports and social club. Our team name is Super-Happy-Lucky-Extreme-Chance, and we are absolutely horrible. In fact, its 4 games into the season, and not only have we not won a game yet, we haven't even scored a touchdown yet! Seriously, a pop-warner team of 10 year olds could probably beat us. It's fun though, and we have a good time and get some excercise, so, gooooo SHLEC!!
I'm a big dork, and I love reading. My favorite kind of books are biographies, specifically biographies of presidents. I'm currently reading Master of the Senate, which, at 1167 pages, is just about long enough to keep me entertained. I'll read pretty much anything though, as long as its mildly entertaining.
So, I'm in the second year of dental school now, which has been, without a doubt, one of the hardest years of my life. I'm completely burnt out, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. In just about 3 weeks I will be done this school year, and then I will GULP, start treating patients... should be way more fun than the 36 credits of courses I'm taking now.
Oh, I'll put some pictures up soon other than a pic of my sister (by the way Sloth, she is 15! Waaaay too young for you. And she doesn't like republican's anyway).
Everyone else in the blogging universe always puts stupid links or a quote from some political bullcrap article in their blog, and I'm sure I'll do some of that later... So stay tuned to this space.... hit refresh every 10-15 seconds, cuz you never know when something actually WORTH reading will pop up (although my guess is never).
As for Smirky Chimphalliburton last night - loved it. You know we found a lot of oil right here in the US. There is oil in the Gulf of Mexico. Off Louisiana and Texas coasts. Also off the coast of California and in Alaska. But we can't drill. Against the law. We haven't built an oil refinery in this country in 25 years, because of environmental restrictions. You want to save the environment and all, but are you willing to do it if it means dependence on foreign oil and sky high oil prices and terrorist dictators with billions of oil cash. To curb 'global warming' (which is not real) there are over 30 blends of gasoline that must be made at the refineries. There are summer blends and winter blends and California blends and New York blends. Additionally, because of environmental regulations, gas is taxed outrageously. We couldn't even drill in ANWR until this year. Smirky said he can't solve our energy crisis. Well, we have shot ourselves in the foot. Prices wouldn't be so high if we didn't cripple ourselves. So that is today's rant.
