Perception of an Ilness

The disorder that I suffer from is profound. However it has also given me gifts and insight I would not have otherwise have. Also I have to take solace that many famous and successful people have suffered from my mental disorder. So I need to work to develop my strengths.

Visiting My Cousins

Next summer I will be going up to Canada to visit my cousins and see my new baby niece. It looks to be good times as West Coast Canada is physically gorgeous in the summer time.

Why I Study History

I am a history major and once someone I knew asked me why do you study history? My answer was because it has so many useful applications. Two of these areas include Business and Politics. There are many famous and successful history majors including eight American Presidents, businessman Steve Wynn, and two other famous history majors include NFL Quarterback Joe Namath and Baseball Commissioner Bud Seilig. What these people all have in common is the fact that they value knowledge of the past and how it can shape our future. I happen to think along similar lines.

A new short story

Currently I am working on a new short story. It is called "the Last Reader". This story is a distopian future tale of a world in which reading no longer takes place amongst young people. It is none the less a powerful allegory about our current pedagogy.

I am Going Home

For only the fourth time this entire year I will be in a place that is not Las Vegas. I will be visiting my native state and seeing my family this weekend. This is the first time I will have been home since March of this year.

Nancy Pelosi is Incompetent

If commentators say that John McCain has egg on his face over the failed bank bailout. Then House Speaker Nancy Pelosi must have a three cheese omelete on her face right about now. I oppose the bank bailout. So should Speaker Pelosi. As speaker of the house she should have put her foot down and said no dice. However she was held political hostage by a group of greedy people. This should be seen as a monumental failure of judgment on her part considering that in 2007 she pledged that it would not be government as usual.
