When you see something like this in the news, it's hard to escape the thought of constantly getting the shaft from corporate america. Yet another reason why I hate money, the things that greed does to people are horrifying sometimes. There are other things in the world that are more rewarding, more consistent, and less unclean.

New Friends, Old Friends, and Giant Rocks
It seems like every time I enter into western territories, the first thought that enters my brain is, "Dude, why aren't you living out here?"
I flew in on a late flight, 2 hour layover at Midway, couplabeers.
And I was hiiiiiiggggggh as a kite.
The SAGEEP 2012 conference is off to a great start. Monday was filled with talks and meeting up with some old friends on the professional beat. Making my rounds a schmoozing, keeping my foot crammed into the door jam so they can't close it all the way. Monday night was the student event, the Barrio Brewery downtown Tucson. Micro brews forever, delicious Mexican food, oh and this guy....
If you don't know who Phil Stokes is, you haven't lived. Phil is a great person and a great friend always trying to bring out the best in people. Excellent job on the student event Phil! He even arranged for live entertainment by the Dusty Buskers, a two-piece accompanied by a seasoned gentleman playing the banjo. An excellent show to say the least, I bought the disk and hope to share it with all my pals back on the east coast.
That's all for now, I'm going to hit the sheets. More stories to come about us getting busted in the hotel parking lot tapping a keg, some good Chicago style pizza, and the overview of my presentation. Thanks for checking out my business.
Muchlove,
Adam

Beer
Why do people enjoy beer that tastes like water? I was at Chicago Midway and at the bar, everyone else was ordering bud light, miller light,etc. I was drinking a Sam Adams. I actually challenged a woman to a taste test between bud light and miller light and she failed. Beer is supposed to be delicious, but hey, maybe these people are just trying to get drunk on the cheap, and whothefuckamI to tell them otherwise.

This is why organized religion is dangerous
At least 10 boys, sexually abused by a priest. At least one of those 10 boys was castrated to cure "his homosexuality" even though the priest was the one performing the homosexual act. The castration was also part of a punishment he received for informing people of the priests act.

What are the Republicans up to?? Honestly.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/15/tom-corbett-ultrasound-bill-pennsylvania_n_1348801.html
This business of trying to pass laws to make transvaginal ultrasounds mandated, to let the mother hear and see the baby before performing an abortion, is nothing short of fucking insane. How does anyone who supports this bill think that people will stand for this?
Why can't we remove ourselves from these issues, just leave it up to the parents. When you live life and make love to someone, who you aren't married to, sometimes you have a scare. I'm not endorsing abortion by any means, but if you support abortion cool, if you don't support abortion, that's cool too. That's one of the great things about this country, YOU CAN BE YOURSELF. So do it, and quit trying to tell people how to live.
If we can quit bickering at each other about this stuff, we can move on to more important issues, like education and energy. Far more important...
Peace and love.
