Dudes Unite!


Scientists have developed
the first male contraceptive pill. This is a pretty awesome day. It's funny in reading this article in that apparently "Polls have repeatedly shown wives and partners do not trust their men to remember to pop a pill every day." Or it could be that they're not really on board with the fact that men can now control whether babies are made or not. Personally, I think this is a fantastic invention to combat those women who "forgot" to take the pill. ;)

Oh No She Didn't!



So yet another instance where the media and the majority of society is going to jump to the idea of "police brutality". Bascially the rule of thumb is this:

If someone is claiming "excessive force" against the police, you ask them this question. "Before the excessive force, what happened?" If the answers are not "he/she was running from the cops" or "he/she was resisting arrest", then I pretty much don't even accept the idea that excessive force happened.

In the above video, punching a teenaged girl in the face with a closed fist, violent? Yes. Did she LAY HER HANDS ON A POLICE OFFICER??? Yes.

Bottom line, if you touch a cop, you deal with the medicine that comes out of it. And if you're going to throw the race card on this, just don't.

Rejoice, For I Have Risen


Back from the blogging void, I am picking back up the gauntlet and charging ahead with my blog.

For those too lazy to look backward, let me fill in you in why the large lull. My job that I was laid off from in September of 08 was unfortunately so boring that it gave me ample opportunity to blog daily. After that, my time was spent between Xbox360, school, job searching, and being absolutely blasted on wine and cheap whiskey.

This last September, I picked up a new job in a non-profit organization, all the while still going to school to learn American Sign Language. Basically, the fact that I felt like I'd settled for a job that is far under my educational background coupled with schooling essentially drained any creativity or desire to blog from my life.

But f**king FINALLY, after two years I'm done taking American Sign Language. Also, four months after getting hired at the non-profit, I ended up being promoted to 2nd in charge. Go figure. So I'm finally crawling out of my mental darkages, and I'm here again to judge people, talk about hot chicks wearing boots, and espouse my love of all cured meats.

WHAT UP.
