office

welcome to my office, or at least my online one. step inside, because you're about to be fired, donald trump style. i kid, i really do, but sometimes i can be serious and try and find a common ground between the others and myself. my real office is currently in the uwm union, although i am currently looking for new space to run my business out of. if anyone knows where a sprite young chap like myself can be employed, send a message my way asap. i'm gonna use my espn sense and say that a notice is on the way, so i'm going to go and sit somewhere and wait for that notice. until then, good day to you all, and if you need me, i'll be hanging out in the chocolate room at the wonka factory, drinking my cup of tea and then taking a bite out of it.

beer pong

I write this from the Cramer house, where at I am involved in the beer pong leauge spring 2005. This is my 3rd year, and I have established myself as not only a worthwhile member of the beer pong community, but also a player for the youngins to look up to. For those of you who are new to the sport, beer pong information specifically associated with our leauge can be found at www.chbpl.com or for general information visit www.nbpl.com. I write this blog because beer pong is the greatest sport known to man. Forget about decathlons and soccor, this sport combines two of humanities greatest wants and needs, the nature to be competitive and the need to consume alcohol. It's not called kool-aid pong after all. I guess the fact that yes officer, I've had a few is relevant in the fact that it allows me to ramble without the intervention of a third-party watchdog makes it the best sport of all time. Beer pong as a game brings out the best (and I will admit, the worst) in all of us, and we all must step up to the table some time if we want to shoot the ball. Life as we know it is centered around survival and the ability to shoot a ping pong ball into a 16 ounce clear cup filled 1/4 of the way with the chepest beer on the market, with the end result of everyone enjoyng themselves in a way dictated by our predescessors. When we compete with each other in the relm of beer pong, we find out who we really are, and by that we determine our future as pointed out by the ultimate game. That is all I can say right now, for it is time to finish for the night. But don't worry, there is always a time and place for everything, and beer pong, like religion, will always be an established part of society, and we draw upon that to live our lives and fullfill our dreams. The game will determine our place and passage in life, and like Doogie Howser, typing on a computer at the end of an episode, that is where I will finish. And that my friend, is where the Iceman finishes the race.

Almost Famous

At work today, I had a conversation with Alex from the dishroom about the movie Almost Famous. The soundtrack was playing, and I asked "Is this the soundtrack to Almost Famous?" Of course it was, because I've seen the movie so much that I can easily recognize the music from it. We talked about it for a while, noting that it was one of the greatest movies of all time, and then we both came to a startling conclusion - we both could not believe that there are people in this world who have not seen the movie Almost Famous! Normally I don't really care about your likes or dislikes, nor will I tell you what you should or should not watch because I realize that everyone is entitled to their own opinions. But, I believe that everyone, before they die, should take a few hours out of their lives to watch this cinematic masterpiece. And if you don't like it, I mean truly do not like the movie, I will personally buy you a movie of your choice. That's how strongly I feel about it. I feel the need to inform the world of Cameron Crowe's semi-autobiographical wonder, and I thank you for taking the time to read what I have to say.

Start of the Blog

I guess I'm going into this kind of blind, because after all, I have no freakin' idea what blog stands for. I guess it's one of those new-age technical terms, kind of like spam (which used to be that fake ham stuff that poor people buy but now stands for unsolicited email or something.) I guess this is where my lack of schooling kind of shows, even though I've been in college long enough that people should start calling me Scott M.D. Hell, I'd even settle for Scott R.N. right about now. I'm getting off of the subject and spouting random stuff, which is something that you'll see me do quite often. I'm starting this blog because I always wanted to post random thoughts and observations (much like I do in my journals) but never really found an outlet for them. I do have the website (pookon.com) but I can only write things that pertain to the pictures that I post and can't really just go off about something. Well, hopefully I keep at this and bring you some funny stuff. Let me know what's going on in your Mr. Roger's neighborhood and hopefully we can be neighbors. Hooray!
