College Visits and Tours... Didn't I just graduate???

Yesterday The Green Lantern and I went on some college visits and tours in Washington D.C.. We also met up with Latro and some Wyomingites for delicious Chipotle.


Honestly it was kind of funny looking at colleges after just having graduated from such an institution. At first I kept comparing the schools to my alma mater, however, I did realize that my brother is looking for different things than I ever was. Most definitely I never even considered looking at a school at which I might get heat rash like I did yesterday.

All in all it was a good trip, despite The Green Lantern's confusion on what he wanted and did not want to do or see which lead to us wandering about the Mall unnecessarily for an hour in the heat and sun (did I mention the heat rash?)


I love summer.
I think we might go to Boston next...

BREAKING NEWS!! (or at least it was (or might have been) at some point)

CITIZENS! I write to you today in light of the recent string of sunny days that have befallen us. Here, for the first time in print (or any other media), are some sun-related notes I have dug up from my adventures in.... THE INTERNET!

After suspicious questions raised from our own Master Yoda on the appearance of redness of the skin in the presence of a sunburn, I met with one of my associates, Mr. Google. He explained that this was the work of the disease-fighting Immune System using one of its most powerful weapons, Blood Vessels.

Immune System swells Blood Vessels in the area of any cut, bruise, or burn, allowing for the small but mighty champions of anti-pathogen justice, the Bloods Cells, to swarm to that area in hopes of healing those innocent Skin Cells that were harmed or injured and to remove the Cells' fallen comrades that, unfortunately, did not survive.

Therefore! in order to prevent such a travesty, I am happy to provide a few Sun Safety Tips from my most trusted news source, The Onion. I have selected those which I feel are most important:

1. Always sit at least 100 yards from the Sun.
2. Instead of using our sun, sunbathe using a safer, more distant star, like Beta-Sirius.
3. Stabbings, while tanning or not, are very dangerous - Avoid them!
4. For those raised in a red-sun environment, yellow-sun may cause superpowers - Use only for good.
5. Avoid suntanning on inner planets like Mercury and Venus.

Good luck! And remember, only YOU can prevent your entire body bursting into flames.

Summer!!! well, not quite, but June!

Im Juni liebe ich es einfach am Strand spazieren zu gehen.*
However, since I cannot go to the beach, I started my sun tanning process at work.
And no worries Grandma, my feet are already burned so that they will be tan.
¿Eres consciente de las consecuencias de tus actos?*
In fact, yes. I am well aware that sun burn can cause skin cancer.
Despite this, it is nice to be outside in the sun after so many long months of snow and snow and snow...
While it technically is not summer yet, it is June!
So Happy June First everyone
and remember if the customer thinks its summer already,
Il cliente ha sempre ragione.*

Everything Changes

I have changed a few things up here (just a heads up)
I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions
(I was thinking of going to a Star Wars theme, but Sonic the Hedgehog does not appear in any of the Star Wars worlds, so... where do they both appear together? if i can find such a world, this blog will represent!)

((haha, google or youtube yoda and sonic together and watch the wonders of the internet))

Peanut, Peanut butter...

For anyone who cares: this post has no real point.

I just liked the following quote from the creator of the Peanuts Gang.
I mean, if anyone knows anything about peanut butter, I'm sure it has to be him.

"Nothing takes the taste out of peanut butter quite like unrequited love."
