Online today...

Check this out? I didn't believe it at first, but it's like netflix for your underwear, except you can't stream online? http://manpacks.com/

Also of interest, it is 10* warmer here in Ohio than it is up at school. Just in case you all wonder why I want to move back.

I'm also not a big fan of Napster. Amazon, please? Youtube.com is easier to stream music through than Napster.

Blog Following, and the Relay for Life

Through Andy with ABN's blog (which I follow), I found a link today to a new guy... Phipps. I don't really have many blogs I follow yet, and I'm being careful not to tack up too many of them on the list else I never get anything else done everyday. I already read the news in 3 different countries; I don't know how much time I have.

Anyhow, the real point of this post was Phipps' comments related to how the anti-HSUS attitude floating around recently has probably been more damaging to our goals than it has been helpful. I've personally been very frustrated with how the anti-HSUS 'activism' has been so fired up, irrational and disorganized. I feel it has nothing to accomplish except for the destruction of our reputation. Hopefully more people will realize the damage they are doing to our cause before they lash out. Compromise is a word nobody wants to hear, but it is a word that needs to be considered here. Now if only HSUS would realize this also?

On other news... I signed up for the Relay for Life at Michigan State University. Our club (Phi Sigma Theta) is signed up for it, but we're short on walkers and money. If you feel like or want to donate, please do. Regardless of the amount of money, it will make a big difference in our club's contribution.

Welcome back to me...

I'm back!!!! I have a new computer as a pre-graduation gift from Mom and Dad, and I have finally gotten it all adjusted to how I want it to be after the last 3 hours of configuration. It's really nice to have a computer, and even better a new computer. I'm planning on taking very good care of this, of course, but I'm also excited to put it to the full test and really get some stuff done with it. :)

And Amanda... I love you. I don't post that often, but I really just wanted to say that today. You've been so patient (and sometimes not. ;) ) as I've sorted through all this computer stuff and I'm just excited to be able to finally get to talk to you again every day.

What a weekend!

My weekend was pretty crazy, and with so much studying to do now, I really don't have much time to catch you up on all of it. Basically, it consisted of seeing Amanda, a lot! :), of bowling Thursday night, DeSaegher farm visit Friday with Marcus and the Team (and missing seeing Sarah Falk), of driving home in a worse set-up than last time (took me 5+hours and I saw a driver flip and had to call EMS for him), pre-Cana (which is way better than I expected) and chasing cows Sunday night.

I just want to say real quick that I'm sick of people sitting in our classes and lecturing about how Ohio is going to lose this fall. Gee, thanks for the support, eh? It's hard to be positive about stuff, sure, but just because Michigan is screwed over already, that doesn't mean they need to be hating on Ohio agriculture. That's just stupid.

On another note, I filed a complaint with National City a week ago for a mis-filed charge on my card, and today I got $50 back! :) That was pretty exciting.
