Ever see a kid stoned? This kid just got off the wacky gas and some anaesthesia from the dentist...kinda reminds me of Shana after getting her wisdom teeth out.
I don't know a lot about this Stimulus Bill that is about to be passed. However, can someone explain to me why spending this gargantuan amount of money is a good idea? We, as a nation, are so far up to our eyeballs in debt as it is. This will only deepen that debt right? I mean where are we getting this money? To me, it would make better sense, and set a better national example if we just sucked it up and lived with the consequences for a while and SAVED MONEY! "Hey, spend money you don't have, it doesn't matter." How is this good economics? Aren't the basic principles of economics the same? No matter if it is national or personal. If I needed $500thousand and didn't have it I wouldn't go out an borrow a million. I would save - or in my case just do without. This stimulus bill sets an incredibly bad precedent for our country. It MIGHT help in the short term, but in the long term it does not bode well for us.
Several days ago a few guys, and one brave chica went sledding over at Dog Hill. Dog hill is a massive hill at the top of Cherokee Park. We figured it was about 150 yards from top to bottom as far as a sled could go. Here's a pic from the top...
As you can see we weren't the only one's there. Here's a pic from the bottom..

The guy taking the pictures, Aaron Warmath, is a freelance photographer. Here's his site for more pics of the snow storm: LINK I recommend a look by you the viewer.
One of the dudes there was Randy. He's 6'7". I have no idea what he weighs but he's roughly the size of Paul Bunyan. I took a sled ride with him - on the same sled at the same time...that pic and story will have come another time as I am waiting on John the Canadian to send me the pic. However, here's a pic of Randy flying over the ramp at the bottom of the hill....
I have no idea how to describe this event. He's 6'7". All I know is that he was high enough in the air that he could have stood up and not touched the ground. If I only had video footage I could have won some money for sure. He actually landed this jump. The ramp was only about a foot high but because he's so....umm.....Paul Bunyan-ish, he was catapulted into orbit. The brave girl who came with us, Casey, braved the ramp also...
She did well, but she's more like Smurfette, so physics weren't on her side. Here are more pictures. And don't forget to go to Aaron's site. He's pretty awesome with the camera.
I think I am finally turning a corner with my nausea. I haven't felt it in maybe a week, but it has been exchanged for a new feeling that I am not so sure about - HUNGER. I AM ALWAYS HUNGRY! I strongly dislike that feeling. For example, food so far today:
6:50 - Bowl of Multigrain cheerios w/milk
8:30 - mini whole wheat bagel w/fat free cream cheese and orange juice
9:45 - Banana
I am still hungry! I try and tell myself while eating, eat slow, space it out because seriously in about an hour I am going to be hungry again anyways no matter how much I eat right now. I am going to be the size of a cow before no time if this keeps up. Definitely going to have to get creative this week at the grocery store for some healthy snacks to keep my hunger away. If anybody has any tips I would love them.
I wasn't a huge fan of the first one of these, but this looks pretty funny...
It is snowing again today.
So Mr. Olympian got caught smoking pot and is sorry. Good. He should be. However, in his explanation he pointed out how young he is. As if being in your early twenties makes it ok to get lit. Right. Dude is so lucky this happened Super Bowl weekend and not some other time. I'd almost guarantee that some of you missed this story because of the Super Bowl. If this had happened in a few weeks when we are all forced to watch the NBA and college hoops, he'd be blasted and this would be one of the biggest stories of the year.
Ok, I was so bad during the year at picking games I'm not sure why I'm even making this post but here goes....
I think Arizona's defense is underrated and their offense can make enough plays to beat Pittsburgh's defense. I'm taking the Cardinals over the Steelers 31-24
