cliche, stereotypical blog.

i've decided i'm going to make this blog a commentary about all the crap i've seen in the news lately. k?

• NY Giants reciever Plaxico Burress is made of idiot. And so is anyone else who has managed to shoot themselves in the leg with their own weapon. These are the people that (pardon my extreamist opinions) deserve to die from an accidental wound to any part of their person. If you are stupid enough to make it so your gun can go off without you purposely pulling the triggor, Darwin's theory of natural selection would say that you should have died. Which, i firmly believe to be a viable argument. To me, this is a message from SOMEWHERE that Burress does not deserve to be a functioning human being. Thankyou. anyone agree?
• TERRORISTS ATTACKING REPLICAS! What has this world come to? I hear this on the radio the other morning and i though it was a genious idea. Since these terrorists in India decided to take down the Taj Mahal HOTEL, and not the REAL Taj, one of my favorite radio DJ's threw up the idea of creating replicas of all of our coveted monuments. This way, since the terrorists seem to be getting stupider, they will mistakenly bomb, destroy, and or raze, the decoy building. (which will be filled with nothing!) This could save millions of lives. I actually think it's a reasonable idea. except now i feel bad for talking about terrorists. It's not their fault g-d chose them to destroy things...
• On friday i was at my boyfriend's house. He, and his family, are pretty into college football. WHICH I DO NOT UNDERSTAND. k? Alright so i have no problem with pro sports appreciation, that's natural. Also, i have no problem with school spirit for your alma mater, BUTTTTT, when you're rooting for a college team that NO ONE in your family went to, it makes no sense. What is the basis for being loyal to this team? My boyfriend LOVES LSU. He doesn't want to attend college there, nor has anyone in his family, yet he still loves them. His brother claims that he started liking them when the beat Notre Dame a few seasons ago. Which brings me to my next question; his mom LOVES Notre Dame. She has never gone there, nor has anyone in her family. But they're Irish. ridiculously Irish. So i guess this means they have an excuse for enjoying a good game of the Fighting Irish, of whom probably aren't even all Irish.
• I never thought about the historical moment i found myself in on November 4th. But last night, i was out to dinner with my mom, aunts and uncle. (all over the age of 45) They had just gone to see the movie Milk, about the gay govenor of California. My mom proceded to say how she remembers the day he died and all of the junk that came along with it. This totally flicked a switch in my brain that was all "HEY DANI!!! WAKE UP!! IN THIRTY YEARS YOU'LL BE WATCHING MOVIES ABOUT OBAMA, THE FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT!!! YOU LIVED THROUGH THAT!" And then i kind of felt apart of something. All these adults can remember everything with Harvey Milk, just like i will remember where i was, what i was doing and who i was with the moment Obama was elected the next President of the United States. This is big guys. And it took something like a homosexual govenor being shot, then a movie made about him, to make me realise this. I feel small.
