Bravery takes many forms... passive, violent, stubborn, or freeflowing. We mix and match these colors when we paint the stories of heroes for the next generation. That is how we humans get by.

| (1) You should watch Happy Feet, even if you are a single male. The penguins are accursedly cute that even I felt warmth inside. (2) In almost related news, global warming is a serious problem, as evidenced by there being no snow in northern VA. To make it even more scary, Boston, MA, had only one flurry this year, the weather statistical equivalent of Shaq making a 3-pointer. (3) Arrested Development is a hallmark of siutational comedy as Firefly is a hallmark of science fiction. Both exemplars of their respective genres have been cancelled by Fox. Therefore, Fox sucks. I remember being addicted to their saturday morning cartoons as if they were crack, however. (4)  (5) The ride down from Boston to VA was only 7 hours this time, thanks to M.Z. and Paul's semi-masterful driving. M.Z., somehow asleep at the wheel, managed to get us home without killing anyone. The boys are back. The question is whether we should invite ourselves to Jimmy's place or M.Z.'s place. In either case, it is warm enough to play basketball.
These updates are getting pretty sparse - usually only when I'm not in school. Last entry was Thanksgiving, this one Christmas. At this rate, I only get one more post for spring break before I graduate.
It is all part of "growing up," I guess. Many of you, including the people who subscribe to me but do not blog anymore, probably know this sentiment. There are just more important things to do, like trying to get a job at an investment bank or going to graduate school. We're becoming our parents, the emotional equivalent of "selling-out."
Let's toast to "real life."

| 1) Duluth is over. Fun and productive. 2) I am giving away more books - catch them before I finish packing at My Give List . 3) GREs. I don't know words. 4) I'm addicted to Comedy Central.
