I'M BAAAAAAAAAAACK

Hello boys! My sincerest apologies for my absence. I had nothing to blog about and when I finally did, I didnt have the time to do it (bullshit excuse I know. Eat one). I'm going to go a little intellectual on you boys so bear with me if I sound like a jackass. I've been reading a lot of books lately, one of them being The Oxford Book of American Short Stories.. Let me tell you, books are GREAT. Not only do you learn some stuff, but if you've got a stack of books next to your bed that you've actually read chicks begin to get the impression that you're not such a tard after all (no girl wants to smush a tard; Its unethical).

Anyway I came across a short story by Herman Melville, "The Paradise of Bachelors." Its definitely a great read and plays into the transition all you turds are going to be seeing in the upcoming years. As much as I didn't want to believe it, getting blacked out, breaking shit, starting fights, causing scenes, pulling fire alarms, etc. is not as cool as it used to be (if it was ever really coola t all). After college you start waking up embarassed and ashamed of yourself. These days its all about going out and being reasonably respectable and actually remembering the night. I will admit though that I've become a bit girl obsessed and have been missing the times spent pounding a few with the boys and chopping it up for a few hours (no, coked out convos at 3 am do not count toward this).

This is where my short story comes in. It essentially speaks on the good times men are able to have doing nothing more than sitting around, throwing a few back, and sharing their lives/reminiscing. My favorite line comes at the end of the story: "But fine though they be, bachelors' dinners, like bachelors' lives can not endure forever." So live it up boys because while this time is awesome and invaluable, it will not last forever. Enjoy your friendships now because before long we'll all be married to some whench with snot nosed kids running around. The days for fraternizing with the boys are golden. Cherish them.


The Paradise of Bachelors Sorry Der Der there wasnt any book on tape available.
