Pokerface

How do you make Lady Gaga laugh? You Poke-er Face. haha get it? No but seriously, I played poker this weekend. It was pretty fun, except that an old lady stole my money. No joke. I lost just about 4 dollars in the first hour. Then I won like 2 dollars back. Then I lost again, and I wasn't happy. At least I got a free Snuggie out of the deal.
THE END

I need to see some identification...

I went to Wal-Mart today, I really wanted to buy The Hangover. After I got it off the shelf, I walked to the front of the store, and hoping that I wouldn't get carded for the R-rated movie, I went in the self-checkout. But as I stood there, ready to pay, some woman, hardly older than myself comes up to me and asks to see my ID. I gave it to her and she checked for the date of birth that the screen told her I needed. She just stares at the screen for about 15 seconds, obviously debating on whether or not to let me make the purchase anyways. She then told me, "I can't let you buy this", and just walked away. Needless to say, I was frustrated, so I went to my house and watched Superbad instead. It just wasn't the same.

Freedom

Freedom is the feeling you get when you know you could do whatever you want, whenever you want. But when you have that much freedom, you have to have a decent amount of reasoning. Just because you can, doesn't mean that you should go into a bank, rob it, have a dance party, have a bonfire with the wood from the desks, and then make a get away on a jetski.

You're heated

We have a game tomorrow against Mankato West. Rumor has it that their JV has only given up 8 points so far this season. And to make things worse, we have 5 starters out with concussions. But that also means that people have a chance to step up. Get er done

Justice for ALL

Everybody wants to think that our country is fair, but really, we aren't. When a star athlete gets a DUI or a prizewinning model is addicted to drugs everybody seems to think, "It's okay, they won't do it again", and  then they get off with the bare minimum punishment. But when your dog craps on their yard or you bump their car it's either, "Have that mutt put down", or, "You're paying for a new paint job".  Half the time a celebrity with an assault charge gets off easier than an average person does when they have a parking violation. I don't know if that can be considered Justice.

Silence

It's already October and as Halloween draws closer, so does deer hunting season. If you really want to experience silence, hike out in the middle of the woods at 5:00 a.m., sit in the exact same spot for 7 hours straight, and have no human contact during the whole thing; that's what deer hunting is like. But the other side of deer hunting is how incredibly loud the one gunshot you hear that morning after being dead silent all morning.
