Break Fast

The best things in life are the simple ones. A nice gesture, a good cup of coffee, sunshine, naps, giant bunny rabbits, pickup basketball, live music, a run-in with an old friend, seeing people accidentally get hurt(not permanently..well unless they deserve it) -- all great simple things that can make a day. There is another simple event that is by far one of the best things in life. Going out to breakfast. There really isn't anything better. Sitting around with friends, talking about the night before, dropping all issues and commitments at the door, postponing the inevitable hangover, planning the day..oh and a good meal too. I don't think I've ever had a bad time going out to breakfast. Its a a nice siesta from life and you're almost always guaranteed to be in good spirits afterward. So get together with your friends and go out to breakfast.The over priced food and sub-par coffee that you could easily prepare at home will be made up by the atmosphere and great discussion.

There's never a bad meal choice for breakfast, just don't be the one who orders a cheeseburger at 11am. I'm a western omelet guy, but find your own go-to or just get the breakfast special - always a fail safe option.

The Gym Concept

The gym is a funny place. I mean we humans have detached ourselves so far from our how evolution has built us that we must now commit time to "move stuff around". Nothing is created that helps the human race. The goal is to build oneself up superficially or simply maintain a normal sized body we might otherwise have if we were born 2-300 years ago. In addition, the designers of a gym specifically lay it out to make one seem "larger" than he actually is, which only feeds into the concept. However, there is nothing wrong with doing things that make us feel better. I mean what is charity. On the surface it is one man helping another, a selfless act, but deep down, subconsciously does it not make one feel accomplished? There aren't many people who work at a soup kitchen for a day and go home feeling worthless or not being able to contribute in someway to society. I apologize for my digression. So yeah, the gym is a pretty weird concept. Mindless activity focused on making us feel better. If only there was something where we could build something and still get the right amount of exercise. I mean it wont stop me from going but I just wish there was some alternative that could get me as jacked and tan as Pauly D and also not require working on the docks getting paid shit. One day.

Let me know your thoughts.

Til next time...stay warm and get some for yourself.

The Wrath of Heuler?

So, ever since I threw Robo a.k.a. Ryan Heuler of Bethel Park, PA down on the ground a few weekends ago and gave him a bloody lip out of shear intimidation, he's been giving me dirty looks. I don't like it. I don't know why he thinks he can sit over there with his pink flannel shirt and glare at me. It's not going to fly. I think he knows that, but he's too afraid of what his other roommates might think. Oh well, maybe one day he'll get over it and we can be friends. Well, at least the former. Have a great night every one.

Entry One

Moments ago, I was feeling tired and was contemplating going to bed. However, somehow I lifted my weary eyes and ventured downstairs to see my Woodmont cohorts. Upon entering the living room, I heard one of the greatest things I've heard in at least the past 9 days, 7 hours and approximately 25 minutes.

What was it you may ask?
Well, the one and only Luke Schilling made a blog.

So naturally, I had to make one too and tonight I am going to speak on a theory I have been developing with a friend of mine, and fellow blogger Daniel Tomko. So tonight will be the first mention of the future infamous theory the Alexander-Tomko Hypothesis.

The Alexander-Tomko Hypothesis is a commentary focused on the dynamics and male thinking during a party. Party can be defined by any sort of get together featuring alcohol and women. Essentially, the Alexander - Tomko Hypothesis states that men tend to devote their time at a party to women and alcohol which in combination create "fun" therefore F(fun) = f(women) f (alcohol). Now f(women) = f(school/area) + f(women population). Therefore, in order to reach the optimal amount of fun when there is lack of alcohol there better be some fucking hot girls around or else your heading to the bar. The converse of this situation is, well for example Carnegie Mellon. Since f(women) is sub-par at CMU, in order to maintain the right amount of fun there better be some everclear jungle juice within sight.

This is only a scratch on the surface of the Alexander - Tomko Hypothesis, expect more to follow.
