Well I'm back at school once again and a few thoughts are swirling through my brain at present.

The first is that no matter how crazy a driver you are or how brave; William's can make you think about your own mortality.  What am I blithering about you ask?  Well on Friday night I was at home, as some of you know... and anyway; to make a long story short, for a split second I was fearing for my life.  How did that come about?  Well
myself, William, Joe, and Spinner were on our way home from Kentland, where said driver (William) had just put 60 bucks worth of gas in the KY (his 86 Blazer).  William decided that it was an appropriate time to try to launch the KY into Ford County over some railroad tracks, despite an oncoming car not all that distant from us.  I now know what a pardoned death row inmate now feels; because for a split second I just knew that our deaths were imminent.  Luckily for us the car slowed, our lives were spared, and there was loud cheers from all.  I got a little bit of it on camera, unfortunately I missed the screams of terror precluding the launch, but I did get the landing.

That was the most excitement I'd had in quite a while; even if I was scared as fuck and had to practically pry the seat apholstry out of my tightly puckered ass (Isn't that such a nice thought?) to get out of the Blazer.  It was a fairly uneventful weekend other than that; I had hoped to get out and see a lot more of you than I did.  For those I missed; sorry but I'll catch you next time I'm home and not so pressed for time. 

Oh yes, and a note to Joe about time... an hour is 60 mintues buddy. 

Anyway; not much else to say worth mentioning. Just went to class, got a haircut, and wrenched on the Samurai for a while today.  I might go out later, but I have a paper to finish for tomorrow so that possiblity is doubtful.  Well, enough of my psychobabble for now...
