Germany...

To all of those who wonder why I haven't posted lately... I am enjoying time with my OMA in Germany. I just finished my bike trip from Germany to Vienna Austria. I will post pictures as soon as time will allow!

The College Life

Here it is, This is my room Woods, 613 to be exact. Though it looks quite bare....at one time it was STACKED full of things! Today I had my first final, and then once I was done I started to pack away my things. I figured that I would take some pictures to remind myself that no place that I live ever live can be as bad as this. Some might say it doesn't looks so bad, and I guess that if you just judge the pictures, then it doesn't look half bad. Even though living on campus is convenient, and I only have to wake up 15 mins. before I have to be in class, most of the cons outway the pros. Living in 11x15 quarters with another person doesn't bring out the best in someone, though I was blessed to have a great roomate. My bed doesn't have springs but I improvise, and while the showers are cold EVERY day...and the food is packed with enough sodium and carbs for all the people in the world, I am glad that I had the opportunity to experience the "true" college life. :) I thought I would give everyone else the opportunity to indulge in my experience as a WOODS SIX RESIDENT!

The Flat-out Truth! Or Lie?

<-- This fella here...well you may wonder who he is? Well his is the one and only Charles Johnson. Who exactly is Charles Johnson? Well... I didn't have a clue either! That is until I was in my Geology class learning about rocks and other crocks... that I was told there was a such thing called "The Flat-Earth Society." I listened in awe as my teacher explained how some people are idiots (in mostly those words..and others not worth mentioning)...while he marveled about Al Gore receiving the Nobel Piece Prize. Okay so the whole Al Gore thing... well that is another idiot but you decide who is the bigger one... Charles Johnson or Al Gore.

The Flat-out Truth: Earth Orbits? Moon Landings? A Fraud!
According to Whom? Well Only the infamous Charles Johnson! He believed that, "The idea of a spinning globe is only a conspiracy of error that Moses, Columbus, and FDR all fought"... and that... "The facts are simple," says Charles K. Johnson, president of the International Flat Earth Research Society. "The earth is flat."

Near Lancaster, you can see the Rockwell International plant where the Space Shuttle was built. To the north, beyond the next hill, lies Edwards Air Force Base, where the Shuttle was tested. There, also, the Shuttle will land when it returns from orbiting the earth. (At least, that's NASA's story.)

"You can't orbit a flat earth," says Mr. Johnson. "The Space Shuttle is a joke—and a very ludicrous joke."

"Nobody knows anything about the true shape of the world," he contends. "The known, inhabited world is flat. Just as a guess, I'd say that the dome of heaven is about 4,000 miles away, and the stars are about as far as San Francisco is from Boston."

Okay So, I know I have been rambling on about things that people don't even care about! BUT, I find it quite funny and on the other hand awesome. Why is it awesome? Because, Heaven is only 4,000 miles away so we can all get on the next flight to Heaven and forget the "hell" about it... badachi! There you have it!
