Fate has twisted and bucked me off againI fell for hopeThe cardinal sinI took for granted the status-quoAnd now I've got nowhere to go.I rest in pieces on the floor tonightPraying to see the morning light.An empty bottle within arms reachReaffirms the cause of my slurred speechI look in the bottomOf every one I downDespite th...

Sports & Recreation > College Football Why college football programs in southern states have more bowl game appearances: 2 of 7
It is very simple why college teams in the south make more bowl games than their counterparts in the north. It comes down to location. If you take a minute and think about where the bulk of the bowl games are played, you will see that there are very few in the northern states. All of the "marquee" bowl games are played in the...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: On love: 421 of 1269
At the foot of the crossGambling for the Savior's clothesWill I ever wise up?Who really knows?I seem to take all the good things in lifeSqueeze them too hardAnd create more strifeI take what I want and throw the rest awaySaying "Forget the futureI live for today"But the future becomes todayAnd I am starting againJust spinning...
