I bet they show this on "The Ocho"

Before I get to the post, any of you xhtml guru's know why my links now sit at the bottom of my posts instead of even. I tried to look at the template but they are using the
where I am not really sure whats that for. I thought it was simply a column ender or something like that was removed but they are not using that form of html. Its to advanced for me.

On to the post. I get an email from "The Onion" each week about special events they have in chicago. Usually they involve stuff with free beer for an hour at a bar to who is dancing this week at the Admiral.
This week one of the deals is for a beer pong(Beurit) tournament. The winner gets so prize but also get a trip to the WSOBP you ask? Why it is the World Series of Beer Pong. I believe this will be broadcasted live on ESPN 8 "The Ocho". The fact they have a world series for this gives me hope. Since my favorite drinking game is "Asshole", there might be a WSOA tournament out there somewhere. I always dreamed of winning the world series when I was younger and maybe this is my chance. Let me know if you hear of any qualifying tournaments.

I am back!

Yes, I feel like hutch though he has probably blogged more recent then me. I have not been blogging or even reading them for a while. I feel like I am so busy with everything. I have three more classes until I am done till the new year. At that point Final Fantasy 12 comes out tomorrow. I know Keri is thrilled with the thought of me playing the game all the time.

My decision to return was based on Halloween. I decided to finally watch the movie Saw. I have been putting it off for a while because in my older age I have started to get more afraid. Not just of movies but life in general. I finding myself taking less risks then I did years ago. I think about the future more. I am see it as a sign of maturity but there are times where I also see it as a sign of fear. Its strange how you really need to balance life between being safe and taking risks. I guess the older you get the less risks you take. I spent a good amount of my early life taking lots of risks. Stupid ones mostly but still risks. As I sit in my apartment with no one around I find my self debating turning off Saw because my mind tends to play games with myself. I used to love horror movies. Though I will admit I used to watch them mainly with Lynn. Her and I would get a whole bunch of wine and have horror movie marathons. It was fun and its definetly not as scary when you have someone else watching with you.

Are you supposed to stop taking risks as you get older? Is taking risks what make us feel alive?
