Otherwise, I'm a writer of sorts, trying to make it big and trying to keep away from the Mental Home (sadly, while living in Michigan, that is rather

Politics, News & Issues > Justice System Should parents be held responsible for their minor children's criminal behavior?: 4 of 36
In one of my favorite TV Shows, AMC's own Breaking Bad, which presents Bryan Cranston (of Malcolm in the Middle fame) as Walt White, a chemistry teacher whose days are numbered by lung cancer and depends on his own meth-making skills. Also co-starring is Aaron Paul, as a former student Jesse Pinkman, who sells his meth that ... More..
Politics, News & Issues > Soccer How to improve the popularity of Major League Soccer: 6 of 22
Soccer (better known as football in other countries) in the United States all together is not a favorite. As Tom Leykis once mentioned soccer is a bunch of ants chasing the aspirin. The American that I am, I for one actually enjoy watching a boring soccer game. I like to watch some of the MLS and due to having a few pals fro... More..
Politics, News & Issues > US News Virginia Tech shooting: Should America ban firearms?: 16 of 52
Banning firearms will not stop the violence. People will still be able to obtain firearms. It will be the same exact way when a person who desires illegal drugs could consult a drug dealer to obtain those drugs. Same for a person, if so a ban on firearms would be put into place, if that person desires a firearm, he could go ... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Economic News Why no protests about gas price gouging?: 4 of 11
As of writing this article here, being a day after Thanksgiving in the year 2008, I had purchased gas at $1.79 (one dollar and seventy-cents) a gallon. I put a total of Eighteen Dollars or Ten Gallons to fill up my 1992 Buick Skylar from one-eighth of a tank to F, just about. I must say, it is nice to see this. It's a total ... More..
Politics, News & Issues > Economic News Starbucks is running low on bucks: 600 stores to close: 6 of 16
A good educated guess on why six hundred Starbucks stores are closing is as good as what most people would say, "Why do you think Starbucks is closing 600 stores?" The economy isn't so good. And since the economy isn't so good, are people going to a five-dollar cappuccino each and every day? Good question. It's the basic ide... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Atheism & Agnosticism Reflections: What is a religious hypocrite?: 8 of 17
When Jesus started out on his mission to heal and preach, he had disciples from backgrounds that people as a majority would frown upon. For example, Mary Magdalene was a prostitute. Jesus has asked us to be more acceptable or at least tolerant to all people, even if such people may disagree with your set of beliefs. But in T... More..
Creative Writing > Short Stories Short stories: Winter walk: 9 of 19
It would be a cold winter March 2008 in Washington Township, Michigan. A 20something Garret Maldonado was walking on the newly-made subdivision he found refuge in, but still living with his parents. The temperature of that faithful night was a cold lower-twenty degrees and the wind chill seemed to add to his chance of freezi... More..
Health & Fitness > Substance Abuse Should marijuana be legalized?: 67 of 132
We have a drug out there called Caffeine, in which it is suppose to give you a energy boost. We also have new prescription drugs out there for just about anything from mental illness to pregnancy. They are considered drugs. And what I find interesting is in the Netherlands, Marijuana, a drug, is legal. However, in the United... More..
Hobbies & Games > Card Games Is poker a sport?: 29 of 55
Clearly it is not. However, as you can see it being played by professionals on ESPN and other all-sports networks, it can be marketed as a sport, if you wish to say 'marketed,' or endorsed as a sport. But I would say 'marketed.' And it very well could. During these professional games of poker, they do have play-by-play sport... More..
