| I'm so sad, someone stole my Cannondale R600 $3000 road bike that I have yet to ride 150 miles on. I let my friend borrow it to take to school because his moped was broken and some bastard cut the lock in the middle of the freaking day in the middle of the freaking school. Now I can't do the triathlon I've been training for because I don't have anything to ride. This is the second road bike I've had stolen in the last two months, the first I lent to my girlfriend and then it was gone. Also, it appears someone stole my bose headphones out of my desk in my architecture studio. Why do people suck so much. I don't even know how to desribe how I feel, totally sad and discouraged I guess.

| So I haven't posted in a while and while reading the news today a couple things caught my eye, so here goes....
Milton Friedman, one of the greatest economists ever, died today. One of my favorite economists, gone forever! which sounds super dorky I know, but I don't care. This man was a genuis, and a nobel award winner. Some excerpts from the msnbc.com article:
“He has used a brilliant mind to advance a
moral vision — the vision of a society where men and women are free,
free to choose, but where government is not as free to override their
decisions,” President Bush said in 2002. “That vision has changed
America, and it is changing the world.”Friedman
favored a policy of steady, moderate growth in the money supply,
opposed wage and price controls and criticized the Federal Reserve when
it tried to fine-tune the economy. In an essay titled “Is Capitalism Humane?” he said that “a set of
social institutions that stresses individual responsibility, that
treats the individual ... as responsible for and to himself, will lead
to a higher and more desirable moral climate.” Exactly, personal responsibility and freedom
Also, a Norwegian museum has just opened an exhibit on gay animals. This has got to be one of the dumbest things I've ever heard of. If feel like writing more but I don't think anything else will truly relay my thoughts except the phrase, "utter stupidity". One thing I will write is that it always confuses me when evolutionists point to homosexuality as part of the evolutionary process, but the very basic premise is that of the strongest/smartest/best passing on their genes, through their children. Does this seem counterintuitive to anyone else?
