Thanksgiving 2

During Thanksgiving this year some family members were talking about my cousin's new girlfriend. They used logos in their argument by saying that she is to young for him (she is). However, another family member defended him by saying "Why does it matter to us?" My family member was right, why does this concern us. He will probably end up breaking up with her in a few months anyway.

Thanksgiving to All

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone

Today I will be able to see my moms side of the family like every Thanksgiving, however today I get to see my cousin for the first time in over a year since he moved out to Las Veges,NV.

However, last night while I was with my parents and neighbors having a little dinner, my neighbors daughter's got a text message from some friends letting her know a fellow classmate was killed in a car crash no more then 2 miles from where we were at. The same neighbor was driving back to dinner after she picked up her older daughter from work and saw the accident.

Into The Wild

Today I was able to watch one of my favorite movies of all-time. This movie is called "Into The Wild". The movie was directed by Sean Penn and it started Emile Hirsch It is about a young man who runs away from his life and starts a new one by traveling the country. His goal is to get to Alaska and live in the wild on nothing but bare essentials. Well living in Alaska he comes upon an abandoned bus.

This is the bus that he lived in for over 100 days.

This is picture of Chris McCandless that was found undeveloped in his camera.

I highly recommended the book and the movie
One of my goals in life is to get my picture taken in the same position as he was in the picture above.

UFC 123

Last night I watched UFC 123. The main events were Quinton "Rampage" Jackson vs. Lyoto Machida and B.J. Penn vs. Matt Hughes. The first fight was in the Light Heavyweight division and the other in Middleweight. Penn vs. Hughes was the first fight of the main events. This fight only lasted 0:21 seconds in the first round due to KO (punches). This was one of the fastest KO's I have seen. Penn won the "Knockout of the Night" award and a $80,000 bonus. The other main event was little bit longer, it lasted all 3 rounds. Jackson won via split decision.

Boardwalk Empire

 Last weekend I went home cause my parents were out of town. I didnt throw a party cause i have been sick for the last week. But i did have some friends over just to hangout. A friend that came over told me about this show on HBO that he loves. The show is called "Boardwalk Empire". This show is based during Prohibition in the 1920's and the gang related crimes in the city of Atlantic City.

I already heard of this show when it came out awhile ago. This has become one of my favorite shows of all time. however, it will never replace my favorite show WEEDS, unless they do more then 2 seasons.

Obama

Obama's approval rating went from 45% to 46% in a couple weeks. His health care reform bill has caused America to be in more debt now than any other president in history has put us in.

"The interesting thing about this recent rise in poll numbers for the President is that in general the approval numbers for a President decline after huge midterm losses. Both Bill Clinton and George W. Bush suffered this in 1994 and 2006 respectively."

Fantasy Football

This week I may have made one of the best pick ups of all time. On one of my teams I have 2 quarterbacks, Tony Romo (out) and Donovan McNabb. This week is McNabb's bye week so I needed a quarterback. I decided to pick up Ryan Fitzpatrick of the Buffalo Bills. So far today he hasn't been that bad of a pick up.

Lil' Wayne

Lil' Wayne is now free. Apparently the place to be is Miami because thats where he is going to have his party.
