Buh Bye, Harry's and 2 WTF's!!!

-This is one of the corners of the box that the Cannondale was shipped out in.

-Went to look at a truck this afternoon that ended up getting sold to some guys that got there before I did. But its okay cause they hella overpaid. Hot Open Face Turkey Sandwich was great like always.
-JR's plate after he devoured it.
-StarTrek.... seriously.
-Skeet Stopper.

I feel like I should post something here for some reason. But in reality not much has been going on. Work has been slow but for some reason I have been staying late. School starts next Tuesday and I have yet to find a car so i can get myself there without having to ride. New headset for the roadie is here and getting installed on friday. Sad to say but my 93 Cannondale Track will be gone shortly... just waiting for the payment before it makes its way to Texas. This bike will be dearly missed due to its wonderfully stiff frame and amazing response. In other news, the LandShark is also pending sale which is great news... I will be track bike free for the first time in the last two years. Looks like it is time to invest in another bib so I can have one clean everyday to ride the roadie. As a sidenote.... encase someone is actually reading all of this, Netflix Intstant for PS3 is amazing. The last week alone i have watched more movies that I have the past six months. It is great to pass the time.. until you realize it is 4am and you have work in a few hours.. fuk it. goodnight.

Dipsomania.

-Why must this statement be true..."Around 90% of adults in United States consume alcohol, and more than 700,000 of them are treated daily for alcoholism."
-Why is it that people don't realize what they consume has an extreme effect on those around them.
-Why are their so many why's that have to due with people and the consumption of alcohol.
-Why is it an accepted part of society... something that has to be done to be "cool" or "hip"
-Lately I have been looking further into these questions.... the only reason I have been is because i live with it.
-I understand that social drinking is a part of society and that no matter what is said or done it will never go away.... I just don't see peoples reasoning for consuming an abnormal amount on a daily basis.
-I guess the only good thing about tonight was that my family actually didn't offer me alcohol at a party for the first time since I stopped drinking two years ago.
-Maybe they have finally got the picture... just took me two years to paint it in a pallet of colors they recognize.
-If anything I hope this post opens up atleast one persons eyes about another one of the many deceases that kills loved ones daily.
