Is hot. I don't enjoy showering two to three times a day. Nor do I enjoy my 20-25 minute commute to work in the morning. I miss home.

Need to Blog

2009-02-21T22:42:00.000-07:00

I feel like I need to start blogging again...

I will no be a Donnie or an Eric. But I will write that which is good and true.

Like OMG

2008-04-08T22:03:00.000-06:00

Does anyone else think the Jonas Brothers and Hannah Montanah are just totally awesome right now?

Rando Post

2008-03-31T21:55:00.003-06:00

I don't know if I am a particularly fidgety person, but I have the toughest time keeping my hands still while I'm studying. I made a conscious effort tonight to avoid touching my face while I was reading about financial investing.

Also random, but for some reason, after I have posted, my blog doesn't seem to update and show the new post for at least 2 days. This is weird.

Spring Break

2008-03-31T08:04:00.002-06:00

I ventured home for the past week to enjoy Spring Break. While many of my friends opted for exotic trips to Cancun or Puerto Vallarta, I felt going home would be a nice break from the hustle and bustle of the Academy. I spent pretty much the whole week relaxing-spending time with family and friends, watching movies, visiting the gym, and of course- eating to excess.

I will miss Oregon until the next time I am home, which is looking more and more like Thanksgiving. I am currently looking for a 3-day weekend between now and then that I might be able to fly home for a nice visit.

WTF?

2008-03-17T17:31:00.002-06:00

I did my laundry yesterday, using Tide detergent. As I got back to my room and started to fold my laundry and put it away, I smelled a shirt as I put it away. It smelled like Chinese food. I then smelled a towel to see if it smelled the same. Yep. No Bueno!

Sean' Sheltered Life

2008-03-10T08:02:00.002-06:00

Call it what you want, but attending the Air Force Academy sometimes makes me feel like I am five years old. Around a year ago, the Comm people (Communications Squadron) started a war on cadet's, blocking numerous legitimate websites. Here is just a partial list of the websites which the Academy feels are inappropriate for the Cadet Wing:

myspace.com
youtube.com
break.com
flickr.com
postsecret.blogspot.com
vimeo.com
thesuperficial.com
and a host of others

Attempting to visit any of the aforementioned sites leads to the following screen...

Suck!

Where have you been?

2008-03-03T21:17:00.006-07:00

To all my loyal readers (Molly and my critic-Anonymous[see prior post comments]), I apologize for my period of absence. February was a busy month! To start the month off, I was part of the 50th annual Academy Assembly, which hosted more than 100 delegates from over 15 countries to discuss a relevant topic-dismantling terrorism. This program for which I am the CFO made NY Times headlines by inviting 3 ex-terrorists/reformed fundamentalist Christians to come talk to the delegates. To close out the week, Steve Emerson came to talk about radical Islam's role in terrorism today. He was blunt, truthful, and full of facts. Despite this, he still managed to piss off our entire Muslim population (15 kids). Despite these tense times, I enjoyed the week, including free $30 and $45 plate meals where I got to show off my new suit.

I turned the big 21 on February 17th, and celebrated at Old Chicago's, a wonderful pizza place, with several of my closest friends. I am not afraid to boast that I am a lightweight, and got quite a buzz after 5 drinks. I ended up having close to 9 on the night including some drinks with great names-kamikaze (picture), scooby snacks, four horsemen (yuck!), muff diver (hehe) , soco lime , Irish Car bomb, and a few more.
Unfortunately the excitedness of being 21 was short lived. Although I am 21, I am still a cadet, and thus have school work. I have had 6 tests, 4 quizzes, and 1 project due in the past two weeks, thus my absence from the blogging game. I am back though. 18 days until Spring Break, and in my opinion a well deserved break. Exciting plans anyone?

2008-02-18T14:53:00.001-07:00

I've always wondered what happened to the loser's hats after they lost the Super Bowl, or any other major sporting event. This gives the answer. It seems like this stuff would be worth some money if you could get your hands on it.

I'm goinst to be an ol man YO?

2008-02-12T20:10:00.002-07:00

21 on Sunday? Can this be the best year ever? Most likely yes!

My Confession

2008-02-10T23:01:00.000-07:00

I thought I might disappoint a few of you in writing this....but then I thought about it, and I really don't care.

I have to admit an obsession of mine; one I've had for about 4 years now. So here it goes. S.O.B.: I love The O.C.! I feel like I know all the characters, and that we are practically family after all the drama we have been through together.

Phew. That feels better. I am in the middle of watching Season 4 right now (on DVD of course) and it is glorious!

Spaceships

2008-02-04T15:16:00.000-07:00

I just read Stephanie's post about some jerk that told her SR-71 an was flying overhead, when it was probably just an EMB 120 flying into Medford International Airport. Which, speaking of, why is it an "international" airport. I'm pretty sure it flies to SF, PDX, Las Vegas, Seattle, and Denver, which are all within the borders of our country....except maybe Denver. It might be gifted to Mexico along with Texas if Hillary Clinton becomes president. But anyways, I have a similar story about some know it all telling me ridiculous stories about the wild blue yonder.

does not equal

One day, in Kindergarten, it was almost lunch time, which meant it was time to clean up the wood block station, where myself and one Aidan Morrell were playing. For some reason or another I remember that it was his turn to pick them up. But then he made me a promise. Aidan had this really smart older brother, made, who he convinced me was building a spaceship. Well he made me a one time offer, that if I helped him pick up the wood blocks, that I would get a premium seat on his brother's spaceship. Being no dummy, I helped the kid out. His older brother was really smart. Needless to say, it never worked out, and I'm still pissed.

Superbowl Predictions

2008-02-03T13:58:00.000-07:00

Patriots: 34
Giants: 24

The commercials will be lackluster, and less creative than years past.

Papa's Got a New Suit

2008-02-02T22:53:00.001-07:00

I bought my first suit a couple of weeks back. After picking it up this afternoon, I thought I'd try it on, and see how it looked. Answer: Good. Real Good. P.S. I don't think paisley has ever looked this good.

Knives and Fighting

2008-01-31T09:25:00.000-07:00

This kid leans over to me in the middle of one of my classes the other day and asks "Hey, you got a knife" - pointing to a long string he is trying to cut away from his sock. At first, I was honored that he might consider me the type of person that might carry around a pocket knife, ya know, just for the heck of it. Even though I have never carried a knife, I replied, "not on me", like I have a whole collection back in my room.

Good news to report. On Tuesday, I finished my last super intense PE class for the rest of my time here at the Academy. Unarmed Combat 2, was the follow on the Unarmed Combat 1, which I took last semester. Now, I have PE classes like racquetball, Golf, and SCUBA to fill my physical fitness requirements. Tight.

F*** being sick

2008-01-26T11:51:00.000-07:00

Every winter, in the January/February time frame I get a cold that won't go away. We're talking like two weeks and no sign of relief. I take a multivitamin, I take echinacea, I sleep a good amount on the weekends at least. Well, I'm in that sickness slump and trying desperately to get out of it. It doesn't help when you are outside constantly, the temperature is like 15 degrees, but then the wind is like f.u., thats not nearly cold enough so I'm going to blow ice particles into your face at like 50 miles per hour! Yea, thats probably keeping me hella sick.

In other news, I'm in the process of picking out my AFSC (Air Force Specialty Code), in other words, the job I will have for the next 4-5 years, at least. I'm pretty excited about the idea of actually having a job and not being in school...until I decide to get my MBA that is.

For A Good Life

2008-01-16T20:51:00.000-07:00

I'm sure everyone wonders at some point what success in life means for them (besides having an A-list blog). I think this list does a pretty good job at summing up many of the things I find really important. What does success mean to you?

The Ugly Duckling Blog

2008-01-15T23:12:00.000-07:00

Sometimes I wish I had the creative capacity (and time) to create funny anti-smoking campaigns, or find cool links on the in-ter-net. Unfortunately I spend my time with mundane tasks like aeronautical engineering and managerial accounting.

I don't think anyone wants a blog about the manometry equation or comptrollers. Right?

In Case You Were Wondering

2008-01-12T10:44:00.000-07:00

$10,000 invested in AAPL (Apple) 5 years ago....

worth $241,000 today. Thats ballin' straight up.

Fall Term

2008-01-10T19:42:00.000-07:00

After missing my flight back to school and living without the internet for a day, I got some pleasant news. I had my best semester yet at USAFA. This is the my tally from fall semester.

Leaving

2008-01-06T02:05:00.000-07:00

I think leaving home gets harder every time, I just get better at dealing with it.

grammar police

2007-06-12T16:16:00.000-06:00

while driving around today, I started wondering who decided the order for pairs like "hot and cold" "north and south" or "yes and no". Why doesn't cold come before hot? One is surely not better than the other....

Most Annoying List

2007-06-08T17:56:00.000-06:00

Eric had the idea that everyone would personalize this list. I'm going to go through the list and give me my response to each.

1. Car... I initially thought this was a good idea for a chevy, but then quickly stabbed my thigh with a steak knife...much like this. Its not a truck, not a car. The SSR is just yuck
2. musical artist...its a tie, literally and figuratively. I hate her for obvious reasons and her because she never returned my letters asking her to homecoming...and prom
3. food...it pisses me off because its so good for you but unless its cooked perfectly...it annoys me
4. store... i always feel like i need to shower in bleach or hand sanitizer after I go to this here
5. television show...the shows funny enough, but the actors voices make my ears bleed.
6. celebrity...ol bag o' bones and the spawn of satan really irk me. Does interviewing people even really make you a celebrity?
7. animal...never liked em' and if I'm pretending to like yours I probably just don't want to offend you
8. clothing style... I hate this on anyone, unless you're in the military or actually hunting. Put it on your toddler and I'll send him to Iraq.
9. shoe...the shoes ugly enough on its own, but the fact that you killed something to make it is even more yuck.
10. group of people... we get it, being a teenager is so damn hard.

So thats my list. I tag Dustin, Adam, and Erin to follow up and do it next.

Paris Gets Pwned

I think its hilarious how everytime I've seen someone mentions Paris going to jail (MTV, Conan, Jay Leno) the crowd starts going crazy. Poor Paris.

2007-05-19T23:15:00.000-06:00

Here is a picture from a week or so ago. The CV-22 flew in for the last formation of the year.

2007-05-15T21:50:00.000-06:00

Monday
English Final: Dominated It!
Law Final: Dominated It!

Tuesday
Physics: Ouch...
Biology: Your guess is as good as mine.

Tomorrow
Management and Economics. These finals feel like they should be common sense, but I'm still studying tonight for a long time. All I know is by 4:30 tomorrow afternoon I will be done!!!!

Here We Go Again

2007-05-13T22:32:00.000-06:00

Studying all weekend has helped me tons. I know I'm ready to tackle all 6 finals. I've practiced for the big game now I just have to perform. As soon as 72 hours and 6 finals pass I will be a much happier man.

2007-05-09T16:31:00.000-06:00

It is 70 degrees and absolutely gorgeous outside and I'd really like to go golfing right now. Unfortunately I have a parade to go to in like 20 minutes. Sometimes being in the military irks me just a little.

Oh well. This time 7 days from now I will officially have completed two years worth of college, a very exciting though. Thank God, next year I will still have seven classes, but I will have at least 3 majors classes, something I should enjoy very much.

A Lean Weekend

2007-05-07T16:43:00.000-06:00

Boulder is glorious. Boulder, Colorado a town much like Ashland nestles itself against a beautiful Rocky Mountain backdrop about 25 minutes away from Denver. I venture up North from Colorado Springs with my old roommate Ryan to stay at his girlfriend's apartment and meet his girlfriends roommate.

Good times. Friday we ate at The Cheesecake Factory. Saturday started out with a 3 mile run on the trails surrounding the girls apartment which led to a yummy lunch of sushi and ice cream on Boulder's famed Pearl Street, much like the Lithia Park region of Ashland. Saturday night was just as awesome, in nearby Winchester at Dave & Busters (like Gameworks) and a bowling alley featuring its own DJ.

I'm very tired after this weekend which included a lot more than that already mentioned, but I cannot "stop" as this is the last week of school before finals. Only 8 tests and 2 papers left before the semester can be considered "over".

Holy Molle Sweet Nessy

2007-05-03T23:26:00.000-06:00

This insider information might be more dangerous that Martha Steward on a Thursday, but word is that Ms. Molly Jeter might be re-entering the game also known as the SOB sometime very soon.
With Scott's departure a great void will be left and as Chapter 3 Paragraph 8 Sub sentence 4 of the SOB charter states at least 2 Jeters (or 1 Jeter and 1 Ooler) must be active in the SOB at all times.

Be on the lookout fokes. Aye? Great things to come. resurection

2007-04-29T23:37:00.000-06:00

Only 2 more weeks of school left for the semester and less than one month til I'm home. I should be able to make it, especially since I'm past last week. No blogging due to a tremendous amount of homework and extracurriculars to include a Unit Compliance Inspection. Basically I was working from 8 am Friday until 5 pm Saturday. It proved exhausting and shortly after I finished I laid right down on my bed and slept.

Also, Ooler reported on the death of Steven Bouknight (sp?) . If I'm not mistaken he attended South Medford High School during my tenure, obviously a couple of years ahead of me. Anyone else remeber him?

AMERICA

2007-04-22T16:16:00.000-06:00

I freaking hate those awkward encounters when walking towards another person in a hallway. The hallway is 8 feet wide but for some reason you and this other person seem to be walking directly towards each other. To figure out which way to divert yourselves you ask : Where am I? AMERICA. Go for the right lane! I can't even remember how many times in the last few days (especially in the gym) I have been forced left by some idiot who has either never driven a car before (not possible) or has forgotten where they are (whats the name of our school Dumas. I'll give you a hint, it starts with UNITED STATES). Does anyone else have this problem, or am I just going crazy?

P.S. I think there should be a law. Anyone who tries to move left when confronted with the awkward head-on encounter should be shipped to Siberia or Laos or some other bass-ackward country where they think its awesome to drive on the left side of the rode.

VT Pictures and Tapes

2007-04-19T07:44:00.000-06:00

So I'm sure everybody has seen most of the pictures and video tapes that Cho sent to NBC. That kid was crazy looking, and obviously messed up in the head. The question I have, is whether its appropriate for the networks to be showing these.

A lot of the families have expressed their displeasure with seeing these on TV. It also seems that showing this stuff will inspire the CopyCats that Ooler has been talking about. Won't some other deranged psycho get excited enough about seeing pictures of himself on TV that he will go and shoot up his school or workplace? Maybe. I am sure that I personally would have been just fine if not better off had I not been exposed to those pictures and video.

School Shootings

2007-04-16T16:29:00.000-06:00

Am I wrong for not "feeling" after todays Virginia Tech masacre? I mourn for the families and friends of those who lost their lives, but I guess I'm not "shocked". I see it as a generational thing.

Sixth grade, 20 April, the nations first big school shooting occured. Only a year before that 1 person was killed in the Springfield Oregon shooting. It seems, having "grown up" with these things that one becomes slightly less traumatized by them, by death.

33 is the death count so far, which is the biggest shooting spree in our nations history, but for some reason, having lived through Springfield, Columbine, 8 year-old bringing guns to school, snipers in DC, and more, this newest even seems to just be another blip on the radar.

Blizzards and Chiefs of Staff

2007-04-12T10:32:00.000-06:00

A big blizzard is apparently on its way through Colorado and could dump anywhere from 6 inches to 3 feet of snow in this region. I vote for no school and Sanjaya's execution.

The Chief of Staff of the Air Force came to talk to my class, 2009, yesterday. General T. Michael Mosely is one kick ass dude, the definition of BAMF. He explained the future needs of the Air Force, including a new stealth bomber, Search and Rescue helicopter, and tankers. Some believe his means of getting money for these projects (slashing 40,000 jobs) is horrendous, but he sells it well. It makes you feel pretty special when the highest ranking person in the Air Force stops by for a visit, to exclusively talk to you. He became Chief of Staff when we were new cadets and made an agreement to make us his godchildren. He specified that no other Cadets or Officers/Enlisted personnel be in the room while he talked to us. Awesome.

Also, whats the deal with this Imus radio talk show host. My black-female English teacher wanted to talk about him today, and the horrible racism that still exists in America. I can't say I see racism as a huge problem right now, but I guess when you're a white male you don't feel opressed about much of anything.

Anyways, has anyone noticed how Adam's border looks very similar to the Burberry plaid?

Happy Easter Weekend!

2007-04-06T07:47:00.000-06:00

I can think of nothing God would love more than for you to go see Blades Of Glory this weekend, and probably go to church too. Adam got it right in his review, so I won't go into detail in its awesomeness. The movie renewed my faith in Wil Ferrell which wavered slightly after Talledega Nights. Great.

Happy Friday friends. Enjoy your weekend because I certainly will.

Gettin Back

2007-04-01T23:22:00.000-06:00

Just got settled back into my room and I am not looking forward to school tomorrow.

The most annoying group of women sat right next to me on the plane today from Meddy to Denver. Their annoyance began in the boarding area and continued on the plane. It was this group like the First Wives Club or something, and everything they said was so hilarious they all just laughed. The conversations were seriously like this.

-"Hey Oprah, Can you put my bag in the overhead".

-I sure can

-(whole group) hahahahah thats so funny!

Why? I don't know.

Also, Wolfgang Puck's Pizza is glorious. So glad they have one in DIA.

And lastly, I got my golf clubs out here. I'm looking to hit the range at least twice this week if not more. Should be fun getting back into the game. Goal: Shoot 90 by the end of the school year in two months.

Girls do Not get pee shivers

2007-03-29T21:25:00.000-06:00

It was settled. Girls do not get pee shivers, not because men are afraid of their pee, but instead because women have no penis and cannot urinate efficiently standing up.

So basically I've been wondering what the hell has happened to Cingular/AT&T. Have they swithed back? WTF. March madness has just led to confusion. AT&T at the half. Cingular: We're the new AT&T. Why?????

Also, if I could have a real job, I rather think I'd like to work at the gym, like Superior. It would be tight.

A Quick Question For You

2007-03-21T06:50:00.000-06:00

Do girls get pee-shivers?

Spinach Lasagna

2007-03-19T17:12:00.000-06:00

I'm home for a little more than a week of Spring Break, which is very exciting in my opinion. Just one big test and one paper are standing in my way. That and finding a ride to the airport at like 6 in the morning.

And seriously, has anyone else felt Eric's absence? Where is that kid? The blogosphere is missing a key player.

My Favorite Time of Year

2007-03-18T19:06:00.000-06:00

Has got to be March Madness. There is nothing better than watching at least 3 games of basketball a day for these first few rounds only to have even better match ups created for the sweet 16. Seriously. On top of that, the weather is beautiful and its almost Spring Break. My bracket felt the hurt the first round as I was "upset happy" but its looking stellar now. I don't even care. I like to root for the Pac-10 and the underdog. Its awesome. I love it so much I might just name my first two children March and Madness.

March Madness!

2007-03-14T23:05:00.001-06:00

Its on!

Join the Southern Oregon Blogosphere facebook pool. If you can think of anyone else to join let me know.

South Medford Basketball

2007-03-10T21:26:00.000-07:00

Tonight is the night. As I wait for tip off here in Colorado Springs, I cannot help but think that South deserves this. Medford deserves this. A team like South has right now is once in a lifetime. So many stories from Kyle Singler going to Duke, to Michael Harthun next year, to Dennis Murphy's legend, to 4 Singler/Boyds on the same team. What a story! Hopefully tonight they will see championship glory and the students of South and their alumni (05' myself) can feel proud to be a panther.

School Sucks

2007-03-08T22:41:00.000-07:00

Having seven classes this semester has proved quite the challenge. Weeks with 3 or 4 big tests occur just about every other week and have left me in the worst shape I've been at any mid-term here at USAFA. This week has been relatively quiet, but I know I have at least 2 tests next week, before Spring Break. Awesome. I don't know my prog-grades yet, but I'll be lucky to pull of a 2.5 GPA, which is way below my average (3.4). Basically this equates to me needing to work my ass of the second part of this semester in order to get close to maintaining my GPA.

Dream

2007-03-05T09:11:00.000-07:00

Does anyone ever have those dreams where you think you have written a new post, but you can't remember what its about so you go to your blog and there is no new post? I guess its not so much a dream as a nightmare.

Also, this is hilarious. I feel ashamed to admit it, but I may have had a small crush on Britney when I was like 12. Thats probably my biggest secret, and SOB I've shared it with you. Feel Special.

Next time I get a phone, I want to get a real easy phone number, like 222-222-2222. That way, when someone asks me, "Sean, what's your phone number?" I can reply...just press 2 for a while, when I answer you'll know you've dialed my number.

20 days

2007-03-03T09:08:00.001-07:00

is one day less than three weeks, which is when I come home. Very NICEEEEE.

Another Great Post From The Prestige

2007-02-26T20:46:00.000-07:00

Fellow bloggers... whats up???

I got a couple of gripes today. First, why does everyone automatically assume when you wear a cast/ACE bandage on your wrist that you've been jerking off too much? I hurt my wrist playing basketball(I fell) but people ask me how I hurt it expecting me to say "yea, i wacked the weasel like 15 times yesterday". I swear it was basketball.

Also, I'm seeing this "labels for this post" at the bottom of the screen here, and the first example is scooters. WTF??? Am I the only blogger out there not writing about scooters? Seriously, they could have come up with a much better first example...music, life or general would have done just fine.
So there!

And lastly, does anyone else find it awesome that February is almost over. YEHAHHAHHAHASSS

A Night At The Oscars

2007-02-25T19:08:00.000-07:00

So I tuned into the Oscars for like 30 minutes Sunday Night. I turned it on at a good point in the show. Wil Ferrel, Jack Black, and some other funny dude sang an awesome song, the cute little girl from Little Miss Sunshine proved that she can read and Wil Smith's kid can't, and Al Gore showed America that Global Warming has made it so hot outside, he cannot exercise which explains why he looked like a balooga whale in his tuxedo. Seriously, the guy is having weight issues.

Alas, this week is going to suck at school(3 tests 1 big paper) and I am quickly considering ending my lent pledge of no myspace or facebook. I'm not sure yet.

*update*

I just noticed on Yahoo that The Departed got Best Picture, which makes sense. It was one of a couple of Oscar nominated movies I saw this year in theater. I don't remember it well, just that I was not a big fan. It was weird, long, and not very clear. I guess that makes it Oscar-worthy.

Hearing the Attorney General

2007-02-22T20:11:00.000-07:00

was like listening to one of the CD's that has running water and chirping birds on it and it makes you want to fall asleep. A.G. Alberto Gonzales came to our school today to talk about something and he put me to sleep. It probably didn't help that I was exhausted, but he was a pretty quiet, simple talker. Either way, he talked for like 45 minutes, and I think I was awake for 10 of them. Oh well. Here's to it being almost friday. Cheers.

What to give up for lent?

2007-02-21T22:40:00.000-07:00

Dear blogosphere,

I'm trying to think of something to give for lent?
I know it started today and I'm late. Forgive me.
And make a suggestion.

Thank You Mr. President

2007-02-20T14:42:00.000-07:00

This weekend was kick ass! My mom was here. We rocked Denver and the Springs going shopping, seeing movies, and eating like crazy. I turned 20, which was cool. No longer a teenager, but other then that no big deal right? I was away from the computer for 3 days which is nice, but different. Unfortunately I thought of cool things to blog about all weekend, then forgot what I wanted to write. Oh well. No cool bloggins, just a cool Sean!

Chillaxin to the maxin.... Happy Late SAD day!

2007-02-15T16:46:00.000-07:00

Gosh, so I've been holding out for some time now, trying not to switch my blogger over to the new google system. Pretty much just because I was lazy. Alas, that is my reason for not blogging in a hell of a long time. I guess you could also say it was a moment of silence for Donnie getting rid of blog...again. WTF?

Well anyways, happy (late) Singles Appreciation Day. I know it was yesterday along with that other holiday, but o well. I appreciate being single, sorta. I just noticed that I have the tendency to like girls that have boyfriends. Like I've done this for 3 years now. Whats up with that?

In other news, I've had 3 tests in two days and I have another one tomorrow. Crap nabbit.

Soccer Rocks My Socks

2007-02-05T20:41:00.000-07:00

Today has been quite traumatic for me physically. I took the Academy's Physical Fitness Test (PFT) this morning, and managed the same score I got in the Fall, which I was pleased with. It still managed to kick my ass, leaving me feeling tired, and caused me to puke up my breakfast after the last part- a 600 yard run.

This afternoon provided more exercise, but in a much more enjoyable way. I played intramural soccer. It was freezing. There were patches of ice on the field. But it was awesome. I forgot how much I love the worlds best sport. I played midfield, and ran like crazy, narrowly avoiding injury. At one point I did get kneed in the balls which hurt like a bitch. But I got revenge by spraining the other kids ankle like 4 minutes later... HAHAHAHAHHAHA. Just kidding. Or am I?

Martina Hingis: Sports New Steriod Scandal

2007-01-23T16:49:00.000-07:00

Since no other legitimate news source has come forward with this story, I would like to formally announce that there is yet another case of steroid use among pro athletes. Female tennis star Martina Hingis has been accused (by Me) of taking steroids. Hingis is a top female tennis player and currently is in the semi-finals of the Australian Open, the year's first major. Now in her defense, I have no concrete evidence, no blood tests, no urine analysis, nor have I even ever seen Martina Hingis in person. I do however have this picture. (Click the hyperlink for a bigger pic)

Check out those arms! I would kill for that kind of definition, since I am a guy and have a penis. This look for Martina is not so good, and is most likely due to heavy steroid use, or the injection of massive quantities of bovine hormone. Case Closed.

Feel free to disagree, but you will be wrong.

Oh I wish I were an Oscar Meyer wiener

Or a squinty eyed Asian. Allow me to explain why. You see, Thursday night I was up to til 4 am doing various and sundry things, neglecting the fact that I had to be up for breakfast at 7. Well, the rest of the day I was hurting to keep my eyes open. I was tired, my eyes were tired, and it took quite some exertion to keep my eyes open in class. Then I began to think, "hmm, I wonder how much easier it would be to keep my eyes open, if... say I was Asian??? Now, I hope this doesn't sound racist or whatever. I guess you could say I'm actually in admiration of those people of the Asian persuation.
You can see I've done some technical analysis, using the latest in today's technology* and it would in fact be almost 8 times easier to keep my eyes open if I were in fact oriental. Combined with tiredness factor (x2) and that's 16 times easier. Wouldn't that be amazing? I've heard of people with squinty eyes getting surgery to make them less squinty, more American looking, which makes me wonder if there is a reverse procedure for people like myself. Just a thought.

A Quick Note On The War

2007-01-17T11:49:00.000-07:00

"Peace in our time" was a phrase, I believe it was coined by Churchill back during the First World War. It is amazing how far our society has come. Progress is beautiful. And I believe that is exactly what this war is; Progress. In the information era that we currently find ourselves in, it was almost inevitable that a war would occur in cyberspace.

My friends, the Southern Oregon Blogosphere is on the cutting edge of war fighting in this country.... no, in this world. It was all sparked by Preston's post. Like Hitler annexing Austria, we felt a need to take action. Our fearless new leader, Scott Barthalomew Jeter III emerged, and took charge of the blogosphere. His presence was immediately felt. The war ended quickly, with no casualties, and in the day or so that Scott has ruled his presence has been felt.

Dustin wrote a new post. Sam Sabori was named best non-white blogger of the year by Eric Loeffler. It's a beautiful thing. Now, I await response from former head of the SOB, Donald Ronald Jeter IV. What will he say?

To recap, the worlds first cyberspace war has occured in the SOB. Immediate progress ensued in the form of updates and more SOB interaction. The outlook is bright for this blogosphere friends. Perhaps, we should take over other spheres in an effort to create better blogging throughout this great nation. That is just a thought though.

Commentary on The Blogging Wars

2007-01-15T22:29:00.000-07:00

Blogging wars don't determine who is right, only who is left.

Blogging for peace is like fucking for virginity.

No Blogging. No Peace. Know Blogging. Know Peace.

The blogging wars have begun folks. Whose side are you on?

Here we go again

2007-01-12T16:52:00.000-07:00

First Day

Period 2- Economics: should be very interesting. This teacher is all about money=time=happiness
Period 3/4- Water survival: Validated

Period 5/6-Biology w/lab: My kind of class. It seems like a mix of Anatomy from high school and practical biology (diet, physical training)
Period 7- Intramurals: I think volleyball or soccer

Second Day

Period 2- English 211: My teacher is obsesses with Toni Morrison which should make for an interesting semester
Period 3/4-Electromagnetic Physics: Might as well be a foreign language
Period 5- Management: Very enjoyable, the teacher is awesome
Period 6- Law: Lots of reading
Period 7- Civil Engineering/Air Base Planning: Will be as useless as it sounds

Sounds like a fun semester eh?

Feelings On Altruism

2007-01-11T10:37:00.000-07:00

Esther is a nice older late, probably in her late 50's, working at the Academy in the cadet barbershop. She has cut my hair for the past year and a half, and I really like her, and the way she cuts my hair.

Talking to her today about vacation, she told me how she wrecked her car driving to work the day of the big storm, a day where virtually no cadets were getting their hair cut. I felt bad. The only reason she came was because she was ordered to, and she can't afford to use her leave. It turns out the costs for car are like 600 dollars. I am not sure why, but when she told me this, I was like (in my head) hey, I have that much money in my bank account, I should probably just give it to her. That would be awesome.

After leaving, I came to my senses a bit and thought that its probably not the best financial decision to just give away that much money, but at the same time, maybe its the right thing to do. What do you think blogosphere? If you want to contribute, to a "Save Esther's car" fund, I would be more than willing to deliver her your kind donation.

Starting over

2007-01-09T15:40:00.000-07:00

"I kissed you in a style, Clark Gable would've admired. I found it classic"

A new semester with new classes, new teachers and new friends started today. It should be quite interesting. Seven classes is a heavy load, but they all interest me. It definitely helps that I validated my "water haze" class today. Validating included swimming 75 ft underwater, jumping off a 5 m board and swimming 75 m in under 1:15. And lastly we had to jump off a 10 m board (32 ft) and make it under a bulk-head 25 m away from the edge of the pool. It was some sweet nessy action if you know what I mean. Good way to start my semester.

So This is the New Year

2007-01-02T11:57:00.000-07:00

Ok, so I haven't blogged in what seems like forever. No one has blogged in what seems like forever. Well last night, the ghost of Christmas past visited me in a dream and said that if I didn't blog today I would have bad relationship luck for the next 4 years..... or maybe that was in a myspace bulletin. Either way, I'm blogging now and as far as the relationship luck goes, we'll see if I'm with the girl I want by Sunday when I leave.

Well, for right now, I don't have any best of 2006 lists. I don't have any pictures from what turned out to be a great New Year's Eve. I do have a lot to do in the next several days. That list includes:

Seeing a long list of friends to include Luke, Alex M., Alex B, Jordan and others
Dentists appointment
Going out to breakfast with Papa
Eating good food while I'm still here
and other stuff I really don't feel like writing about because I'm done writing for right now. Peace out SOB, if anyone really is going to read this until after this break's blogging lull.

Mini-Update

2006-12-21T12:32:00.000-07:00

Being home is nice, but being sick isn't.

Muchas Gracias is just as good as ever

Jill Jeter was reported seen at Superior Athletic Club, prowling around with one Kelsey Weaver. So I guess Jag is still on the prowl.

I think Beerfest could have been a lot funnier if I was incredibly intoxicated, because I watched it last night and didn't think it was THAT funny.

Finals Week at USAFA

2006-12-10T12:54:00.000-07:00

Last nightI had the chance to see country music artist Phil Vassar in concert. He is described as the Jerry Lee Lewis of the 21st century, and although I don't know much about Mr. Lewis, I would have to agree. Vassar was very entertaining and his band definitely rocked.

I have begun the tedious task of writing my final lab report for organic chemistry, ever! I'm struggling. That's actually why I'm blogging at the moment, because somehow writing about infrared spectroscopy and gas chromatograms has lost my interest.

Ready to board the Last Train Home

2006-12-09T18:32:00.000-07:00

Only 9 days until I make my return. I can't wait. I found out yesterday that I will only have 3 finals. I knew all along that my chemistry lab class didn't have one, but my behavioral science class was a suprise. I actually validated the final by being one of the top 3% of kids in the class. This was no easy feet, but I suppose all my hard work during the semester earned me this honor and the relief that comes with it.

An Open Letter

2006-12-05T08:06:00.001-07:00

Dear Girl who has her hair in corn rows,

We get it. You went to Mexico for like 4 days for Thanksgiving break. It doesn't look like it, but you probably went to the beach like twice. Good for you. But seriously, you look retarded. We should probably give you an award.... and then shave your hair off.

Love,
sean

If I should die tonight

2006-11-28T17:37:00.000-07:00

Thanksgiving break was nice. Home was a lot different for a lot of reason. I got sick beofre I came back and now I'm sick at school. Driving to Denver this evening, in the snow, should be interesting, and should be scary, but my roommate has to get back somehow. If I do die, tell Annie I love her.

Is he crazy? Birds don't talk

2006-11-19T13:48:00.000-07:00

So I was walking back from Godfather's pizza, outside, and this crow was hopping along next to me and he's like "He man you're pretty lucky you have arms". And I was like "sweet crow. But you have and can fly. That's pretty sweet right?"

And he's like "aww man, screw that. If flying was really that exciting would I be hopping along here, talking to you". So I was like "no Mr Crow, I suppose not. Thank you very much for that insight. These arms are pretty handy. I mean without them I couldn't carry this pizza. I mean I'd probably have to kick this pizza box along the ground to get it back to my room".

I then put the box down, began to yawn with my eyes close, and when they were opened again the crow was flying away with a piece of my pizza held in his beak. Darn crows.

Water Enemas are fun?

2006-11-15T16:08:00.000-07:00

Wrong. They hurt like hell. But I got one anyways after jumping off of the 10-meter diving board during my swim class. The ironic thing is, I did it for fun. You see, swim class is 8 lessons long, but the first lesson, if you perform well on several tests you can "validate" the class. Well, I passed all these tests (250 meter swim under 4 minutes, max 3 efficiency strokes, 5 meter dive and 100 meter swim in 1 minute, and lastly treading water for 20 minutes) with flying colors and decided to celebrate with the 3 other guys that validated (out of 35 or so in the class). We climbed up to the 10 meter and jumped. It was sick.

I Really Dislike Physics

2006-11-13T15:54:00.000-07:00

Which is why I never pay much attention to what my teacher is saying in class. If I do engage myself, it is always in the form of relating my teacher's discussion to something completely different.

Like today in class, my teacher was having our tables (6 tables with 3-5 students) come up with a list of conservative and non-conservative forces. He would ask each table for a force and then have us explain why it was one or the other. When given the task of identifying a conservative force (gravity, electromagnetic, spring force) I automatically blurted out "Rush Limbaugh".

In my teacher's opinion, Rush was absolutely incorrect. I disagree. Rush is definitely a conservative force, not only because large following and myriad opinions, but also because he has a large mass and Force= mass*acceleration.

Compared to Last Weekend....

2006-11-12T13:49:00.000-07:00

This weekend was lame. I have enough homework/studying to choke a horse, and having no car this weekend has made it tough to get out. What sucks even more is that I need a book from Barnes and Noble for this paper I'm writing. Oh well. All I think about, is that in 10 more days I will be sleeping in the comfort of my own bed.... probably with your girlfriend.

B.S.U.

2006-11-06T23:11:00.000-07:00

B.S.U. stands for Baptist Student Union which is a bible study that I've gone to the past couple of weeks.

Tonight was funny. I would say that most of the people that go to this bible study hale from the South or South Eastern U.S. Tonight during the discussion, one of the Cadets used the word authenticity, then proceeded to get really excited because he had used such a big word in conversation (5 whole syllables).

Later, when the group leader was talking, he used another word of great length (another 4 or 5 syllables) and the whole group got excited. Pretty much, the morale of the story is that you gotta love them ed-u-ma-cat-ed (5 syllables) southerners.

Jagamesh. My Name Sean. I like weekend. Is nice.

2006-11-05T15:27:00.000-07:00

So this three-day weekend ended up being pretty sweet. It started out Thursday night dropping my friend off at the Denver Airport (I drove him there and got to keep his car for the rest of the weekend). From there, I made my way through downtown Denver to Buffalo Exchange, and had dinner at an amazing vegetarian restaurant a couple doors down.

Friday morning, after eating a good country breakfast at Cracker barrel (to include grits, gravy, biscuits, and apple butter) I headed up to University of Colorado at Boulder with my old roomies Ryan and Alex. Ryan's Girlfriend goes to school there. Boulder is a beautiful city, reminds me a lot of Ashland, but like 5 times bigger. We spent some time walking around campus, seeing what a real college looks like, then got some grub at Great Harvest Bread Co.

Friday Night, I went with several friends to theMILL. This was an amazing time. Gathering with close to 1,000 other college kids to worship the creator of the universe felt great. theMILL is a ministry of New Life Church, the church whose pastor has been in the news these past few days. Though exactly what occurred has not come out, it was determined by a board of overseers that enough of the allegations were true for Ted Haggard to step away from his position as Senior Pastor of this 14,000 member congregation.

Saturday involved a shopping spree in Castle Rock and Denver. I bought a pair of the most comfortable shoes you can imagine, as well as a cashmere sweater. Its nice to have amazing places to shop less than an hour from where you live, as opposed to 4 hours away (Portland). Saturday night I saw Borat. Jagamesh?
Though good portions of the movie were side-splittingly fun, there were also parts that were incredibly offensive. I would have to recommend you see it. Here are a few pictures from this weekend's adventures:

It feels like you're walking on air

Driving in Denver can be scary

This article is pretty interesting and almost comical in its timing. I was planning on visiting this church tomorrow night, probably still will

Trick or Treat?

2006-10-30T12:45:00.000-07:00

I already made 10% of Charter in 3 days of trading last week.

Earnings come out tomorrow, 31 October. Haloween.

I bought back in on Friday.... heavily, so I guess I have to ask the question-

Trick or Treat?

I'm guessing treat. All I can do now is crack open a Schlitz Malt Liquor and ride the Bull!

Dear Lord Baby Jesus....

2006-10-27T09:05:00.000-06:00

Please forgive me for laughing at the poor injured kid on crutches walking to class this morning. Waiting for him to slip on the terrazo (which was completely covered in ice) was very wrong of me. Amen.

Power

2006-10-24T21:11:00.000-06:00

I bought $2500.00 worth of stock today.

Because I felt like it.

I was in the middle of my Organic Chemistry class and got bored.

2006-10-23T17:54:00.000-06:00

For close to 20 years my mouth was cavity free. I say close to because in September, during my visit to the dentist they found a cavity. Today that cavity was filled. The needle that the dentist stuck into my gums was HUGE and made me tense up because of the painful discomfort.

Getting the actual filling wasn't too fun either. I think having a numb mouth for the past 5 hours is really the only part that has made this whole ordeal worth it.

It's begining to look a lot like Christmas...no, just Colorado

2006-10-18T23:40:00.000-06:00

Yesterday was cold. It was drizzly in the morning, and started to snow in the afternoon. No big deal right? Well I woke up this morning, and it had snowed a lot. I got ready for school, made my bed, got dressed, and checked my e-mail. SCHOOL IS DELAYED TWO HOURS AND BREAKFAST IS OPTIONAL. I never thought I could enjoy the snow so much. Needless to say, I got an extra hour and a half of sleep and it was great.

Dr. Livingston I presume??? No, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night.....

2006-10-16T22:17:00.000-06:00

Saw a good looking Firstie in the gym today... probably an 8.0 (USAFA scale)

she was Asian: + .25

she was reading Blink by Malcom Gladwell: +.75

Final Score: 9.0

I'm Famous

2006-10-12T22:36:00.000-06:00

Check out this clip. The video as a whole doesn't give any sort of clue as to what the first day of basic training was like, but if you skip to about 30 seconds in, then about 1:37 in you should see a familiar face. Sweet.

In other news, I saw a pretty sweet comeback tonight. Our football team scored 21 unanswered points in the 2nd half to beat in-state rival CSU 24-21.

Darn Seaman

2006-10-09T16:34:00.000-06:00

(prisoner exchange)

There were foodfights, facebook groups and spirit missions galore in anticipation of this weekends game against the Naval Academy.

It started Thursday night with a "Spirit Dinner". People were dressed as pirates, ice/paper bowls/salad dressing packets were thrown and of course the 4 degs. started chugging bottles of hershey's, tobasco, and mustard. Spirit was high. A beer garden took place for the upper two classes outside, which resulted in drunk kids pissing on the outside of Mitchell Hall (dining facility). Ramifications ensued.

Some kid started a facebook group about how "I'm tearing down the goalposts when we beat Navy". That action never materialized. We lost, 24-17. It was a hard fought game on both sides. But we lost. Darn se*men.

*The picture is of the "prisoner exchange that took place before the game. Every semester each academy sends their own cadets/midshipman to the other academies. Before these rivalry game, they are allowed to return to their side of the field.

I'll Kill You

2006-10-08T00:32:00.000-06:00

I swear to allah, if I see another person just throwing around their hands and fingers, ya know like they're trying to pack a chew, but they have no dip in their hand... I will kill them.

You suck at life. What makes you think you could snap your fingers like that. You're not Ali G (respect), so you should probably go jump of a cliff or Eagle's Peak or the T-Zo or just stop trying to do that thing.

Thank you.

Blogging From Class

2006-10-02T12:57:00.000-06:00

I definitely have a case of the Mondays. The weekend came and went before I had the chance to kick back and relax. Saturday was football. We beat the New Mexico Lobos pretty handily and look good for our biggest game of the season next week against Navy. Saturday night I sat CQ till 0130 and didn't fall asleep until 0230, when Lost got over. Sunday I slept in until 12 because, you guessed it, I was exhausted.

Today I'm getting back my mid-terms. Not looking too good so far. I got a C on my Organic Chem test and a little better in Calc 3. Next period I should find out how behavior science went. It should be much better than the other two. I guess we'll see. Well, back to class. Update on B.S. later.

**** Update ****
B+ on my B.S. test.

Addicted to Lost?

2006-10-01T20:12:00.000-06:00

Not so much. After hearing multiple people rave about the TV series Lost, I decided I wanted to see what all the hype was about. I began watching the first season Friday night, and made it though the first 10 or so episodes this weekend. Although I like this show, I can't compare it with the enjoyment and excitement I get when thinking about The OC or Grey's Anatomy.

First off, I get the same feeling watching it as I do a show like Saved By the Bell (a much better program). There are 47 people stranded on an island, and the show revolves around maybe 9 of them. I don't even see the other 38 of them, except when they die.

There is apparently a monster on the island, and spirits too. Not really believable. The spirits may be in the imagination of those Lost, but the monster is definitely real as it rips the pilot out of nose portion of the plane which sits like 30 feet about the ground. Not so believable if you ask me.

There are more things that give me reason not to like Lost as much as others, but I really don't feel like writing more than I have. I guess real quick, I'm also pissed, knowing that I'm on season 1 and season 3 is starting this Wednesday. Apparently, these people are still Lost. Oh well...

Test(icles)

2006-09-28T22:55:00.000-06:00

Haha. I just said testicles... like testis. Anyways, 2 down 1 to go. Organic Chemistry tomorrow and I'm done (for this week. I actually have 2 more next week which still really sucks). Anyways, goodnight blogosphere.

I'm Dead Meat

2006-09-23T21:02:00.000-06:00

These past two weeks have gone by innocently enough, lulling me into a false sense of security. Sure I've had homework every night and a lab report here and there, but I haven't had any GR's (graded reviews). And now it hits me like a cement truck. BAM. 3 GR's this next week, all on the same day, and 2 more the week after. I guess you could call this USAFA's equivalent to mid-terms. It's going to be tough, maybe even impossible. This got me thinking though. How crazy is it that I'm almost half way through my semester and you kids at SOU, UO, OSU are just starting your school years. Crazy stuff.

I've been slacking lately and haven't been down to the gym nearly enough. That's going to change. I need the gym and the gym needs me. Its a symbiotic relationship. I've lost like 10 pounds sick the school year began which is sick. I'm pretty sure it was mostly muscle too. Luckily that didn't stop me from getting my best score yet on the Physical Fitness Test a week ago. I got:

15 pull-ups (I beat my personal best from last semester by 4)
7'4 long jump
95 sit ups (easily maxed)
52 push-ups (this is by far the worst I've done on this event since basic)
1:52 600-meter run

Tonight I'm sitting CQ. The graveyard shift if you will. I don't get off till 0130, which really screws up my sleep cycle. I'm trying to get some good studying done the rest of the night.

Choosing a Major is Tough

2006-09-18T21:43:00.000-06:00

I was originally going to major in biochemistry. Now I'm not so sure. At a school like USAFA, majoring in such a technical, demanding subject like that requires either

A) a person incredibly experienced with that particular field. Basically a natural. A genius if you will
B) a person who wants to work their ass off to try and understand what is to most a foreign language. To do this you will end up sacrificing any free time and every weekend studying.

I am neither of those. I also don't find chemistry that interesting. My goal now is to continue on the pre-med track, but find another major for all other classes. I have less than a month to decide, but here are the ones I am considering.

1) Management (we have one of the most respected undergraduate management programs in the US)
2) Behavioral Sciences and Leadership
3) Biology
4) Economics

Wish me luck. Any suggestions, let me know.

Writing for myself.

2006-09-17T00:07:00.001-06:00

(the road of life)

I haven't been blogging much lately. I have had much more important things to do with my time.

I won't be blogging as much as I'd like to be. I will write in my own personal journal- a Sebastian Valmont like move.

I like reading what I write for myself more than I like what I write for myself and others. I don't like that I don't have very many pictures on my blog. Pictures are pretty.

That is all.

Remembering 9/11

2006-09-11T09:13:00.000-06:00

I woke up this morning at 5:45, 15 minutes earlier than usual. For some reason the Cadet Wing was having a morning formation (all 4000+ cadets gather to salute the flag as it is raised for the day). I had no idea why. I scurried out to my squadron's form up, sized into the formation and stood there wondering- Why are we out here? Not until I saw the flag raise did I realize that today was September 11th.

It's hard to believe that 5 years have passed. Half a decade since those terrible acts were carried out on American soil. I can remember that morning like it was yesterday. It was the fourth day of my freshman year at South, and I was supposed to bring in a share and tell item for World Studies with Mr. Schnoreberg. I woke up and saw the TV on, looking in terror as they recounted the events that had occured earlier in the morning. I watched right until the last moment before I left for class, forgetting that item for show and tell. Class went on as scheduled, but everything felt different. The world had changed. It didn't feel as safe anymore.

A year later in Clem's class I remember debating whether or not to invade Afghanistan/Iraq. Looking back I feel quite the fool. I didn't argue for the invasion, but I felt that if we did invade it would be quick- in and out type stuff. Four years later and we are still there. Sure, "The War" supposedly lasted a couple of months. Sure we defeated the Taliban, and Sadaam is no longer the head of Iraq, but this war is definitely not over.

Today, say a prayer for those who lost a loved one in those attacks 5 years ago. Say a prayer for those people risking their lives in Iraq not for their own freedom but for others(doesn't seem like something I'd really want to do). Heck, say a prayer for anyone, anywhere that you think might need it, because I guarantee it will be a better world if you do.

Athletics!

So two days ago I ran the Air Force Aerobic Fitness Test. 1.5 miles of running in 9:15. I was pleasantly surprised considering I haven't run in several months and haven't followed any sort of detailed workout plan in even longer. My goal for next semester is to run it in 8:30. That would beat my person best (8:57) and exempt me from taking the test the next time around. Next week is the Physical Fitness Test which I'm not looking forward to. Pull-Ups, Standing Long Jump, Sit Ups, Push Ups, and a 600 yard sprint to cap it off. Should be fun.

Flyboy!

14 Flights later I'm officially a flyboy. This is a sick picture of me rolling into a "steep turn". Its not quite as exciting as dating Stephanie, but I do my best.

Parent's Weekend

2006-09-05T15:56:00.000-06:00

I had a wonderful time this weekend. So much fun with the family. It was good to have my parents here for some classes on Friday. Late Friday afternoon was spent relaxing, eating and finally watching Little Miss Sunshine which was an amazing movie. Saturday we headed up to Denver to shop at some outlet stores and Buffalo Exchange. Deal of the day had to be a Billabong button down or a pair of Paper Denim jeans. The majority of the rest of the weekend was spent in heavenly bliss at the Broadmoor. Good times. It's always nice to see my family and the dog, even if it is just for a short time. Pictures to come...

McKenzie says the SOB is dead.. If her reasoning is coming from where I think, she may have a point.

Organic Chemistry

"Friday just means that there are two working days until Monday"
-Dr. Bird

I studied for a good portion of both Saturday, Sunday, and Monday and today now that I think about it, and I'm no where close to being ready for my Organic Chemistry test tomorrow. Oh well. Back to work blogosphere.

Three More Days!

Parent's Weekend 2006 :)

Where's Preston?

2006-08-24T19:19:00.000-06:00

(if I was more photoshop savvy I would put Preston's head on Waldo... but I'm not)

So I suppose waiting three months to ask this question is a bit much, but where the heck is Mister Dressler at? I miss his presence in the SOB very much so.

p.s. I suppose a picture of Carmen San Diego could have been just as poignant, but I like Waldo better.
