If you see me

If you see me ask me about my stance in money and politics...

Time

If people spent half the time they spent online outside they would never go on the interent again.

Saturday

This weekend I took a weekend trip back to the little town where I was raised, some call it McFarland, I call it home. During my stay at home I came upon the opportunity to meet an old friend and mentor for lunch on Madison's upper east side. We had lunch at a nice little place called The Alchemy Cafe the food was great the atmosphere was great and most importantly the company was great. Aloof the conversation the book entitled How to Make Friends and Influence People was brought up, a book I have yet to read, a book I have purchased. The rest of my afternoon was spent playing in the dirt (gardening) during which I got to thinking: Madison Wi is a great place to live. Cliche some may say but hear me out, having spent the majority of my time walking State Street and at the Memorial Union I felt that I knew Madison. I could not have been more incorrect, I knew nothing of the great people that walk the side walks on the east side offering up a wave as you drive by. Moral of the story: get to Madison, meet the people, you will never want to leave.

Welcome

Recently I have come to realize that in recent times Facebook has come to be nothing but a bunch of failed social movements starring the usual players. This comes as a concern to an individual like myself, an individual that believes the bandwagon movement is on a crash course. Therefore I have moved my efforts to the Blogging sector in hopes of combating these bandwagon "like now" "spread the world" "share if you believe" attitude that many Facebook users engage in. Rather I hope to form a culture that making a change is not as simple as hitting a button on your computer, but a change that occurs not on the internet but in the communities we call home. A change that outlasts the spike in interest of Facebook a change that both young and old will have something to hang their hat upon when the day comes to a close. So long as the internet is free the voice of you and I is alive and well.
