my heart will go on (wash yo' nutz)
When Brett Favre retired from the Green Bay Packers, there really wasn't any reason to go on. But as fate would have it, the Washington Redskins signed on Colt Brennan as part of their wooftastic quarterback lineup. With Maryland's former QB Sam Hollenbach also part of the upcoming QB roster, there's definitely something to look forward to. I've seen college football and it was fun, but maybe it's time for me to check out a Redskins game at RFK.
It's been a busy week, with a major paper completed for the spring semester on Tuesday. I learned some interesting things, perhaps I'll comment on it later. For the summer I have Crisis Communication Management to look forward to, which should be fun.
Amateur personal journal blogging is over.
For those of you still on Friendster, Cylon's birthday was May 1st. Many apologies to you, Cylon Warrior, for the belated birthday wishes. And may you experience many more pleasant cycles, and that you project the most wonderful realities from here until your next rebirth on a basestar.
From Josh over at The Conjecturer: the U.S. Peace Corps program has been getting some constructive criticism lately. It appears that the age of flip-flopped and tie-dyed volunteers is over, and countries are demanding more skilled and experienced U.S. development assistance. From my personal experience in Kazakstan, I saw that older volunteers were more respected by host country nationals, and their development work was far more succsesful than post-undergraduate's efforts. With State Department diplomatic budgets shrinking, representation out in the field has fallen under more intense scrutiny. Good will on behalf of Birkenstocked Earth Goddess represenation just isn't good enough anymore in light of major health crises like AIDS in Africa, or food shortages. Countries are demanding experienced and aged assistance these days, and I agree that the Peace Corps program is long overdue for a makeover.
And no Crocs overseas, please. Apparently, someone feels more strongly about this than me!
Finally, Ask Alexyss (wash yo' nutz). Always classy. Guys, please clean your foreskin and behinds.

So does this mean Anderson Cooper is an otter?
I'm thinking Alexyss needs to go to prime time. Tighten that shit up!
And the Peace Corps hasn't always been hippies, either. My Missouri Synod in-laws were among one of the earliest groups of volunteers in the 60's and went to Malaya, as they call it. I'm not sure if they tried to convert any of the heathen Moslems or if they just remained quietly smug in their Lutheranness.
At the Minneapolis airport they were selling a Brett Favre photo book and I almost bought it for you, but then I dropped my cell phone in the soup and all hell broke loose.
Alexyss... Holy crap! What a trip she is. Clorox Wipes? Oh god... (wipes eyes) No no nooooooo.
The Redskins haven't played at RFK in years. They're the Maryland Redskins now, playing at FedEx Field in PG County.
