In The Beginning...

So here is the thing…

Many people have told me I should write a blog. “You are funny… blah blah.” “You have good insights… blah blah.” “More people need to hear your stories… blah blah.” I decided it probable wasn’t a good idea and here are some of the reasons why.

I ARE GOOD AT ENGLISH:
For those of you who know me, I am much more of a Math/Science kind of guy. My grammar is a little less than stellar. Where vs. wear... homonyms are hard! I should have never gone to AP English. Who cares about alliteration and foreshadowing and that Onomatopoeia...on-a-tomoato-pita… oh whatever the hell it is, when you can't spell? Robert Frost… screw him, let’s talk some photosynthesis and Darwin.

HOT MESS XANGA:
I had ill-fated xanga attempt a couple of years ago. I think that didn’t fly because it didn’t have a focus unless it was American Idol season. Most of the posts had too many exclamation points and contained some derivative of the word “WOOT”. Here are some examples:

When life gives you lemons... go online and buy tickets to an early showing of TRANSFORMERS and sing "You've got the Touch!" It is way better than lemonade. TANSFORMERS TONIGHT!!!

Well, now that college football has ended, my thoughts now turn to one great competition. OH YES!! American Idol!

TOPICS:
Do I really have enough interesting stories? I am West Virginia/Oklahoma Boy that was in Marching Band and in the Band Fraternity that joined a General Fraternity and advises Sororities Full Time and lives in a college town that just lost 100 pounds. Never mind… I am good on this point.

After considering all these points, I think the time is right. The world is ready for my point of view. I am not sure when this will kick up… here are possible topics.

Leggings Aren’t Pants and Other Fashion Advice from a Male Sorority Advisor
The Fat Tax!

Really?! You thought that was a good idea to put on your facebook! REALLY?!?!
Craig’s List: Seriously, some of the best reading material out there.

There are tons of people on the internet who enjoy reading “Crazy!” Now it is time to share my special brand of crazy. I leave you today with a quote from my GA.
