If TWO teams were to go undefeated this year (in the regular season, at least), it would have seemed a small less special, wouldn’t it? I’d rather see it go to Indy; Peyton may be the second most overexposed athlete on Earth, maybe THE most overexposed now that Tiger’s f*cked himself into oblivion, and everybody gets sick of seeing his ass on every other commercial that comes on the tube, but he’s also possibly the largest class act in sports today and he deserves it. I’d also like to see somebody, ANYBODY, get more rings than that first class a$$hole Brady and he’s got the best shot of anyone at doing it.

Would someone please let the Chinese, Japanese and other “nese” countries know that this is the 21st century, and that ingesting all sorts of endangered animal body parts to make them perform like teenagers again is NOT suitable behavior? Give them some Viagra, send them ship loads of it, and perhaps these animals can live in peace! Teach them agriculture, how to grow a sustainable supply of livestock, for them to eat. The mythic superstitions held by these backward, uneducated people will mean the death and disappearance of many species if we don’t educate and welcome them into the present era. Man is the only species that can alter it’s environment. It’s high time we stopped acting like every creature on this planet is here for our consumption and amusement. Humans are the parasites that will eventually lead to the decimation and destruction of it’s host: the planet Earth.

I am dating myself here, but as I grew up, men were the only teachers of sciences and higher math. I SAW these jobs are only held BY men. I saw advantages of these jobs too. So I started reading more and finding a way into it. I also included art. A machinist is a fantastic job. It combines all the math, and art together into engineering, and technology is always trying to make it quicker and more accurate. My father was always talking about the newest, latest and greatest technology his own business had. Could it be that kids nowadays, only want to talk to their friends, and that we no longer talk at the dinner table? I miss Dad always tested me on every book he gave me to read, and discussed it with me. Do any of you do that with your daughters?Read the book before you give it to them, and test them on it? Oh, I forgot. We don’t have time for that. Cheerleading, football, and social gatherings are more vital, as well as texting and IMing. Silly me.
