This shit really depresses me

I know, it's no news that we're killing animals. Happening for thousands of years. I know. But we're starting to look more and more like a species incapable of coexistence. Kind of like the aliens from Aliens. Yes, I'm making an Aliens reference. I don't know, Lance, Brendan (no pressure) but you two are the anthropology majors and while this isn't exactly the same field, you might have a bit more to say on the topic than me. Obviously it isn't impossible for humans to coexist, but is it reasonable to expect it? I'm starting to sound like some WWF (the wildlife fund, no wrestling federation) rep but, in my currently drunken state it's important. I mean, in the grand ol' scheme, life on this planet will be over in a few billion years when the sun burns out, but what's our role in this? Of the three most at risk species, there aren't really any that we, as Americans can really make informed shopping choices to protect. None of us buy hammerhead shark fin, mainly because shark fin soup isn't in much demand in this country. None of us consume african antelope, but it's kind of difficult to tell people who subsist upon it to stop (is there much of a demand for antelope meat in the foreign market?). Swordfish i suppose we could all cut back on, but if you guys are like me its cutting back on something you eat once every 1,684 days. Not too effective. I don't know, this is a bit of a drunken rant aimed at no one but myself, with no purpose but to help frame my own thoughts. ...

A man sees a fly, he aims at it. Urinal spillage decreases 80 percent.

No funny business this time, you guys should read this review. This book, called Nudge: Improving Decisions About Health, Wealth and Happiness sounds kind of interesting. I'm not a self-help kind of guy, but the section of the book where they talk about their theory of "libertarian paternalism" in action sounds hilarious. Just read the part of decreasing spillage in the Schipol urinals.

McCain is an old man. Weak and feeble, he nibbles deliberately on his canned peaches, as if each bite was a battle, with victory to be savored, and..

... defeat to be mourned like the lost juice that now runs down his chin like a trickle of water down a mountain stream. Youth escapes McCain like a whorish Helen, off be fondled and cuckolded by Parisin a far greater palace than his piddling city-state has ever seen. Give it up, old man. America now cherishes youth, energy and a penis that never goes flaccid. Seriously though, I thought this was mildly entertaining, even if it is a bit stupid at times. Things that are younger than John McCain.

It isn't all bad, though. Heidi Montag publicly endorsed McCain recently.
