This song is speaking to me today. It's that kind of week.

Sorry for coming in so late, but I just wanted to add my two cents. First off, what he said is crazy shit. You have every right to file with the police. How he could escalate a small joke to that level is beyond belief. Second, and I know some of you will think I am dumb for saying this, it really is sad how bombarded women are today with staying as skinny as possible. I am in no way excusing the actions that were taken, but it is sad that a small joke like SoCal made can offend someone to this level, and I think it does have some to do with the media and the beauty industry.

I cannot believe that some people would call the cops on this. Good to hear they laughed it off, though. Hope in humanity restored.

Happy belated birthday! Bear fucking down! :Bears:

The B1G is such a mess this year. Illinois and Wisconsin have both been losing to horrible teams, but have both beaten good teams like Indiana, Michigan, and Minnesota. I am really hoping that my Illini are back for real right now. I expect the Big Ten to do well come tourney time. IU, UMich, Minny, MSU, OSU should all go far. Illini and Wisky are so unpredictable that they could lose right away or could make a huge run. Think about it though: one conference has 5 teams poised to go far and could have up to 7.

I was referring to Obama's $9/hour proposal. However, you are right about my state. We are at $8.25/hour right now. I don't really agree with the concept of the government deciding which businesses abide by the wage law depending on how the employees use their money. The government really isn't here to decide who is using money for spending money and who is using it to live. I would rather see an age difference. Most teenage jobs are relatively easy and therefore I think we could make an exception for those jobs. I do, however, favor the eventual elimination of the minimum wage, but that is another deal.

So...I really like sports geography. I made these maps. Enjoy and I will be posting more in the future. Also, feel free to disagree.

I spent a hell of a lot of time on this one: Complimented by:

Here's to hoping we elect someone who is ready to bring some big changes. They are needed.

I understand that, and I wasn't even trying to come in here to make an argument. I just want to share my personal story and show that while the minimum wage might need to be higher for people who are trying to earn a living, there are low-skilled, teenage jobs who need to abide by this and that is threatening to put those businesses out of business.

I am a minimum wage worker in the summer, and I oppose the shit out of this. I am a lifeguard, which is obviously a very important duty if anyone needs help. At the same time, the amount of work that the job requires does not match $9/hour and the fact that the little private company that employs me has to pay all of these college kids to guard at $9/hour is absurd. I am afraid for my job.

SEC! SEC! SEC!

RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE

It is Duke. The media treats them like their sweet little child who could never do anything wrong.

This is one of the most disgusting, obnoxious, and downright cruel things that I have seen sports fans do. They should be ashamed of themselves.
