I talked to Matt Parra, an Air Force guy who works with my dad, while i was workin out after school today.  While he was rambling on and on about how the Falcons were gonna decimate Navy tonight, I found myself thinking about what his shirt said. 

It said, in simple black letters, "Nobody loves a soldier until the enemy's at the gate".

I'm sittin here watching Navy go up 14-6 in the 2nd quarter and now more than ever i regret my decision sophomore year not to pursue the Air Force Academy.  I want to make a difference in whatever i do.  I'm not the most patriotic type, but i feel hipocritical when I see guys a little older than me goin through hell in the desert over there while i sit around in an air-conditioned house in Johnson county typin this

Here ya go, mike

Here's a neat quote from my favorite source of quotes: Dune

"A man may fight the greatest enemy, take the longest journey, survive the most grievous wound—and still be helpless in the hands of the woman he loves" - Paul Atreides

Send away for a priceless gift
One not subtle, one not on the list
Send away for a perfect world
One not simply, so absurd
In these times of doing what you're told
You keep these feelings, no one knows
What ever happened to the young man's heart
Swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell apart

And I'm staring down the barrel of a 45,
Swimming through the ashes of another life
No real reason to accept the way things have changed
Staring down the barrel of a 45

Send a message to the unborn child
Keep your eyes open for a while
In a box high up on the shelf, left for you, no one else
There's a piece of a puzzle known as life
Wrapped in guilt, sealed up tight

What ever happened to the young man's heart
Swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell apart.

Labor Day is nice.  A day to sleep and do no labor.  I'm workin on my application to Wichita State.  The only way I'll go there is if I get that 40K scholarship and the only way to do that is to get admitted by Oct. 1.  It's crazy, but I gotta do it.  I'm havin a little trouble on my personal statement.  I'm not sure what I should talk about. It's a public school and they have to take me but I still wanna make a good impression.
