Randoms

To entertain you on the randomness of my mind, I'll take you through these as I read them this morning. I'm trying to lift my brain out of the dump after I ran out of time on another biochem quiz.

My igoogle today thought it was top priority to tell me about a nuclear submarine running aground in Scotland. Oddly enough, the HMS Astute's crew didn't seem to realize they were in shallow water. If you scroll down to the first video you can listen to some entertaining Scottish accent as the guy describes what "ee's seein' outsigh 'is 'ouse".


I figured I'd be putting together a blog this morning so I signed in and scrolled my Dashboard. Unfortunately nobody else seemed determined to waste their time last night so I was short on blogs to read and switched to recommended blogs of the day. That's when I stumbled upon this delicious looking apple cake recipe. I don't even like cake but this looks like the texture won't be similar and I think I could eat this for dessert and breakfast on the following day.

Facebook was also empty and boring. Pretty much the only posts were about people's night out last night and since I already heard enough gossip about people's nights out last night in biochem this morning I was pretty burned out on it. Instead I scrolled through BBC news and read all about how the French snuck in and broke the protest at one of the refineries because they were all shut down at this point. It's inconceivable to me that all these people are complaining about having to work a couple of extra years. And then the guy goes on to talk about this being a democracy and it's failing. Well, I don't know the last time France really looked like a democracy. Don't fool yourselves folks. And who ever heard about fairness towards strikers. Honestly, you're trying to put a country on its knees, who's got a right to talk about fairness here?

Then I noticed a soccer section and the World Cup in me flared up for just a minute. Ireland isn't the only place people get killed over soccer, I guess they had some issues in Italy this past week with overzealous fans. It makes the Crew sound even more boring than they already seem. And all over a 0-0 draw? It's Liverpool for goodness sakes people, not like a Man Utd at Barcelona.

I had some more controversial news as well, but it's best you read for yourself about how the US is spending their deficit to try and buy out their friends overseas.
