Understanding.

Understanding is one of the hardest things to do.

Understanding when to listen, when to be patient, when to act, when to just sit in silence.

When it's time to do work, when it's time to relax. When it's time to worry and when it's time to just let things happen in their own time.

I've been getting a lesson in patience the last week or so, and it hasn't always been easy. I definitely haven't mastered it by any stretch of the imagination. And sometimes I just have to know that it's not always about mastering or understanding or conquering the mountain.

Sometimes just letting things happen in their own time is the best course of action for everyone involved. Sometimes understanding that everything cannot be understood is the only thing you can do. And that's a good thing.

Rockin' That Sh*t

That's just how I'm feelin about my Information Systems class that I'm in right now.

I sit in class, hop on facebook, twitter and ESPN.com, and then make 100% on all my quizzes.

I'm a product of a technology driven household, and I'm greatful for it.

It still blows my mind that there are people in America who don't know how to run a computer. I feel like it's pretty necessary when thinking about running a successful business, but that's just me.

Feels good to blog every now and then. But now I have to run go make a database in MS Access.

Rainy Sunday

It is possible, even on rainy days to get everything done you need to get done.

I'm taking up this e-space now to take my mind away from all the material possessions that I want.

Done.
Now, I'm going back to think about a way to get paid too much for doing naught at all.

It's been a while

What up.

This blog never really took off the way I wanted it to, and that's mostly my fault.

But instead of dwelling on that, let's leaf over a new turn.

I'm sitting in my Thursday class (Information Systems 300) after having a pretty decent start to my day. Lots of things are different from my last few posts, but I won't go into those.

The market is up for the 7th day in a row, so that's good. I wish I was more interesting and had more to talk about, but my brain is fried, and I don't know where to start.

This post is solely for me to keep my sanity and avoid a funk.

[peace]

Trevor Hall: The Lame Tree


This fag-stick is Trevor Hall. He wrote a song called "Lime Tree" and due to recent circumstances which have made me completely despise him--I have written my own version.

"The Lame Tree" by Rob Howe

I spark a match and watch my career burn,
Which record company will drop me and take its turn?
My records are composed with broken sounds,
I count down the days till I won't be around.

It took a while for me to realize,
I'm only famous in my own eyes,
My lyrics shouldn't be allowed aloud,
I'm watchin my 15 minutes burn out.

If there's one thing that annoys me more than anything, its people who think they're too famous to do little things. People that claim their life is about love and giving, and yet they don't walk it out.

I hate people like Trevor Hall.

Conspiracy: Everybody Loves One

I've got this theory. 
It's seen quite clearly. 
That Major League Baseball,
They're hidin' some stuff y'all. 
And when it's all through, 
They'll still blame you. 

This past week A-Rod was identified as 1 of 104 positive steroid tests from a 2003 league wide study. He claims he was "young, stupid, and naive." I could agree. But my problem is not with the players who used steroids and cheated; my problem is with the powers at be keeping information secret. Last time I checked the MLB is not a government agency a'la the FBI, CIA, NSA etc. They should have to release the information they have!!!

Here's my theory. 
MLB has 103 more names that tested positive in 2003. Why won't they release them? Because they are 103 of baseball's hottest stars and biggest names. I promise that the list is full of players such as Ivan Rodriguez, Sammy Sosa, Derek Jeter, and Randy Johnson among others. The sanctity of baseball has been compromised and no one is safe. I believe that MLB plans to release these 103 names one at a time, so as to do as much damage to the player's career as possible while limiting the MLB's responsibility to its players and most importantly it's game. 

Steroids ruined baseball. 
But baseball let it happen.
