OK, I got a job that will probably go on into the summer, and even if this job doesn’t work out, in all likelihood, I’ll have something else lined up in White Plains, or at least in NYC. That means that I’ll need an apartment in White Plains, which means I’ll be moving out of my parents’ house for good. I mean, I’ll still come home for the holidays, but I will be domiciled at another address. I will have to turn in my NJ driver’s license, which has my childhood address on it, for a NY license. God, it seems like just yesterday I was playing MarioKart with my Oak Hill friends. God, would it be so much to ask to go back to those times, even for a day? An hour? Is that so much to ask? I’m growing up so fast…

I got a job!

A border patrol agent sent to prison for shooting an illegal alien attempting to enter the country illegally was put in the general population, and assaulted.
A bill was introduced to give these men a Congressional pardon. I don't know if Congress really has the power to issue pardons, but the President definatly does, and should. These men are not criminals, they were repelling an invasion. If you don't want to get shot, I don't care if you're Hispanic or black or white or Asian or Martian, don't enter the US illegally.

I will never drink a boilermaker again.
