A Few Things

Ok, let's get this knocked out:

I'm going on a cruise around Alaska soon, so I decided to do some research:



I did an entire worksheet of what I know about Alaska!



Heh, suggestive landforms...



Jun-poo! Hah, I'm so witty.



Fun facts about Alaska.



...And Alaska in all of its glory!



Me, because hey, why not?

P.S.- My hair looks really weird in that picture. It's because it's in a ponytail. I didn't do anything crazy like get a haircut or something, it's just looks strange from that angle.

And then there's this:

True Story. A religion teacher assigned her class an essay on what makes a good Christian. One student wrote about praying nightly, say no to abortion, banning gay marriage, and donating money. The other student wrote about talking to God and allowing people to enjoy their lives, and supporting gay marriage. The day the teacher was to hand the papers back, she called up the second student and told him she would pray for him when he went to hell. The student asked why would he be going to hell, and why he got an F on his paper. The teacher told him that Catholism is against gay marriage. The student looked at her for a minute, then said aloud, "I'm gay." The teacher kicked him out of class as if he had cursed or worshipped Satan. A girl in the back of class who had a boyfriend and was obviously straight got up and left too.

If you would leave the classroom, repost this. It doesn't matter if you're straight, bi, or gay. It doesn't matter if you're Catholic or not. Everyone is a human being and deserves happiness.

And a few passing thoughts:
-"Wake Me Up When September Ends" by Green Day is a good song.
-The Postal Service (the band, not the parcel delivery service) is awesome.
-"Transatlanticism" by Death Cab For Cutie is a great album (I especially love "Tiny Vessels").
-... as is "Strange and Beautiful" by Aqualung.
-... as is "X&Y" by Coldplay.
-... as is "Antics" by Interpol. Ditto for "Turn On The Bright Lights."
-Burnout 3 on the Xbox? Awesomeness in disc form.
-"Saved!" is a very good movie. Actually, now that I think about it, it's kinda in the same spirit as the second LJ-Cut. Only it has a bit of humor in it. Quite good, especially coming from a school kinda like that (only less insanely crazy).

And that's pretty much it. Tomorrow I leave for Alaska (as stated above), and the cruise should be fun. There'll be a huge picture post afterwards on either this or my Xanga. I hope everyone has a wonderful week. Later days.

Peace Out,
Guitar Dude
