With friends and a significant other by my side there wasn’t much more I could ask for, except maybe some better grades. Oh, perhaps that my significant other didn’t go to school 400 miles away from me and otherwise live on the other side of the San Francisco Bay. << MORE >>

My time in college droned on quite a bit after the first week. I soon accepted my lack of a social life and began finding other things to entertain me (You don’t need people…).<< MORE >>

I arrived at my dorm room, hoping to God my roommate didn’t show up. This is actually how I begin every year of college. I quickly grabbed the top bunk (Gosh, I always wanted to be on the top bunk!) and the window desk.<< MORE >>

Look people, Nader did not cost Al Gore the presidency in 2000 and he didn’t cost John Kerry the presidency in 2004. In 2000 Al Gore was a bland shadow of the Bill Clinton era. His trumpeting of environmentalism wasn’t a popular topic and his running-mate left something to be desired. John Kerry was a bland shadow of well honestly, George W. Bush and while he had a strong up-and-coming VEEP option in the end Kerry couldn’t overcome himself—an uninspiring corpse of a man, I will forever wish I could take my vote back from him.<< MORE >>

You see Republican’s intervening in the NFL because of its anti-trust exempt status—which is against Republican economic ideals (although anti-trust laws are against Republican economic ideals (…except Teddy Roosevelt…)).
