For the last time...

Might doesn't make right. I am not sure how else I can say this.

Maybe: "With power comes responsibility"? But that sounds so fucking trite. But it's true.

Even if you believe that humans are the superior species based on language, reason, laws, whatever you believe, that doesn't give us the right to abuse other species. What if we followed that same logic for humans. The smarter, stronger, richer ones call the shots and abuse the uneducated, weaker, and poorer...wait. Never mind. We do follow that logic.

So essentially we are all fucked. The Animal Liberation Movement is crucial at this point. Until we recognize that might doesn't make right, we are going to continue to exploit the poor. We will continue massacre countries disagreeing with America because "we can". The military will continue to recruit the poorest boys and girls, so they have a shot at college too.

Many people think that voting helps. It's a nice thought, but lets be honest here. Who controls Congress? People with money. Lobbyists. Huge corporations. You know the drill, this shouldn't be news to you. Vote with your pocket books. Go vegan. If you don't like a stores policies (for me, Wal Mart) don't shop there. Stop buying everything new, there are second hand stores. Even high class "Consignment Shops" if you are too good for Goodwill or St. Vinny's. Use FreeCycle, Craigslist. It saves money and resources.

Just fucking think. That's all I am saying.

I was pushed over the edge. I smoked. For a whole week. You guys are like the fourth people I have told. It was delicious and I loved it.

I was on a business trip that went horribly. I'll refrain from revealing the town, but let me tell you, it wasn't fun. So the entire trip, I was a smoker. Now I haven't had one since I flew out of hell, but I guess I just thought you should know. It was pretty stupid. I'd say I won't ever do it again, but then I'd be a liar.

Bumba De Da, Bumba De Da

So this summer, I have skated outside a lot. I L-O-V-E it. Which for any one who knows me is really odd. I don't so much like to be outside much less when it is warm out. There are two trails in particular that I hit. One is right here in my home town and is nice, paved, and flat. The kicker here is I normally skate around 10 miles on this trail. It's an endurance thing.

I also skate the "Friendship Trail" which is about 45 minutes from here. I love that trail as well. It has hills. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee hills. Hills are good because they force you to push yourself. I took some pictures of that trail.

These pictures were taken with my cell phone so please excuse the high quality. This trail has a trestle bridge that goes over a lake. It's about 3/4 of a mile long. It makes a cool noise when we skate on it.

This picture shows the trestle all the way across. Unfortunately, I don't know if we are coming or going here. Which isn't that odd.

Here are some more pics of the trail.
Look how fast I'm going!
