>_< Something to Type About (6)

Well now, I believe that we've already gone and solved out problems from now on about this whole title thing. Why didn't I figure out the solution sooner? All for the sake of trying to make puns? What a shame. Either way, I was hoping t oget another topic going up on here but for the life of me I couldn't think of anything I felt I could ramble about for a good amount of time, so nothing became of it. But it's Friday now, and that means I'm kind of forced into typing something, whether it's interesting or not. I think it's a good thing. Refreshing. Keeps the work day... aggressive (and I've stated that once before). Even as I type I don't feel anything good coming on, so it might be a few hours before I need to come back.

(7:49AM) I lied. So as I was finished that sentence, I tried to figure out if anything remotely interesting happened in the news. So recently Dick Clark passed away. Now, I could've spent a whole blog writing about this, but it would've been an awkward mess of sorts. He didn't have much influence in my life... and I only grew up with him on his own New Years show he does, and maybe I might have seen on hosting a few gameshows here and there. There isn't really much to share about his passing except that I had heard (at least all the media has been reporting) that he was a remarkable man who changed the music industry or rock 'n roll for the generation. SO for that, Dick, I guess I'd have to thank you. If i didn't get to experience your contributions firsthand, then I certaintly feel that perhaps some of my music interests may have not happened were not for your influence. Other than that, thanks for ringing up my new year for... as long as I've lived in America. I wish you well in the afterlife, and hope your closest friends and family the best.

(11:08AM) Struck up a good conversation with a coworker today. He had gone to the Devils/Panthers game last night and he hada good time. Devils took it 4-0. Good for them I guess. I had previously gone to a Devils/Sharks game earlier this year, and I also had a good time becasue Sharks took it at a shootout 4-3... or 3-2. Anyway, what we both ended up agreein on is how terrible Devils fans are. Or maybe this could go for the slect few of sports fans out there too. It wasn't a huge problem for be because my team won, and they were just complaing about it the whole trip out of the arena, and even on the train. In the end they couldn't say anything becasue they lost. My coworker, however, had it a lot worse becasue since the Devils actually won, their fans shot up to a new level of terror. I find it worse because all they would do is heckle all the Panthers fans, or anyone not wearing Devils swag. If theres anything worse than sore losers, its sore winners. My coworker described this one fan who had thrown a hotdog or something at a guys head for wearing a Boston Red Sox shirt. First of all, he was only there to meet some friends in the area. Second of all, what hate do you have for the guy wearing a RED SOX jersey. I get maybe the whole yankees/sox thing, but remember that you're in a HOCKEY game, and wearing a Red Sox jersey is no way supporting one team or another. I wish bad things upon that Devils fan.

(3:21PM) It's worth mentioning that today is 4/20. Everyone regards this as the day for pot. Mary J? Marijuana? I always thought that it got its name from the police code for marijuana posession... but I think it might actually come from a bunch of kids from some high school meeting up at this certain time (4:20PM not 4/20) to go smoke pot behind their school or something of that nature. Either way my views on pot have gone from negative to positive and now they're just kind of even. Of course when I was younger, the D.A.R.E graduate I was, I thought that any and all drugs were pretty bad. Just like my thoughts on tatoos, my thoughts on marijuana changed as I got through college. In fact, I promised myself that I would try it when I absolutely knew I was going to graduate college. When I did, I completed that promise, and I did try it. I don't want to influence anyone into trying things like these, but you try them off your own accord. I may or may not celebrate 4/20 this year, but I know I'm certainly not addicted to it. I actually don't really know where I'm going with this anymore... point is it's 4/20. That is all.

I was pretty tired today at work. Don't exactly know why but I'm glad I got some substance in this post. That whole weed rant was pretty... disorganized. I'm pretty sure I was trying to list some positves and negatives for it and how ultimately you decide to choose whether or not you try it. You have control, espcially after the first time... you either fall in deeper or maintain that control and enjoy it when you can. As I said though, I'm not going to tell you to smoke a joint. Do some research first, and see for yourself.
