In the news

Dear Readers,

I fell asleep at around midnight but woke up randomly and I cannot seem to get to sleep. I feel like an overdue blog is in order.

Life changes are in the works left and right, my friends. I have chosen to take my life in a different direction that should bring me more out of my life but still provide me with the necessities of life. The details on these changes will be explained in the future because I wouldn't want to jinx the direction my luck is going in.

As the insomnia was charging through my body like Heroine shoots through Courtney Love's, I surfed the interweb on a search for some news.

First stop: CNN, where one of the top stories is "Alcoholic Whipped cream selling fast." This is obviously something that would make the news during the recent debate over the legality of Four Loko. The very thought of delicious whipped cream being mixed with "the equivalent of 3 beers" makes my lips tingle with excitement.

Second stop: Fox News, where a story reads, "Armed Wis. Student Frees Hostages, Shoots Self." Apparently, a 15 year old got pissed about his terrible life and decided he wanted to scar an entire school district for life. You can put as many "experts" on Nancy Grace and have them explain the reasoning behind school shootings, but for someone to actually acquire the necessary weapons-not to mention, BALLS- to pull a stunt like this, there is something seriously wrong with the upbringing of this demented soul.

Third stop: MSNBC, where their top story says, "U.S. looks for way to prosecute over leaks." All I can say about this is, why wouldn't the U.S. charge someone for leaking these documents? It is simple, people, national security is our top priority. Our economy is going to keep going up and down, our kids are going to keep getting fatter and fatter, but we have a security problem in our country that goes beyond border protection. To have a snot nosed person leak sensitive documents about what goes on in the inter-workings of the department that keeps us safe every day, makes me physically ill. Whomever keeps leaking these items to Wiki Leaks has an obvious financial gain or has been wronged by our government in one way or another; I just hope we figure it out and make him/her pay.

I popped some Advil PM about a half hour ago and it is starting to kick in, so I'm going to wrap it up. I'll leave you with these two quotes:

"The Constitution only guarantees the American people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself."
-Benjamin Franklin

"Even if happiness forgets you a little bit, never completely forget about it."
-
Jacques Prévert


Goodnight, readers. Next blog, which is in the works, will be an epic one.
