Every television show, well, most television shows, begin each episode with a murder. This leads to a desensitization of the murder process... if you can call it that. There is a murder, a process by which the murder is solved, and then resolution of the case. There is blood, there is destruction, and families are broken apart. Why does murder sell? What sells the programs that sell murder? Pharmaceutical medication.

I know

There comes a point in all our lives where we must admit to ourselves that we don't really know anything. In order to know something, we must first be able to prove it. Oh sure we all know a few things here and there. But for the most part, when looking at the bigger picture, it is very true that we don't really know all that much; especially when one takes into account all the video games, movies, and television shows we watch. Nothing could be a bigger waste of time or more of a distraction.
The older I get the more I appreciate sleep. When I was a young man, I could go days without sleep. I just left myself in party-mode all the time. When I crashed out I crashed out for an entire 24 hour period. Then, once I recovered, which was a very short time, I began the process all over again with the same group of guys. I wasted a lot of time in those days and took chances I shouldn't have taken. But through it all I am glad I lived on the edge the way I did. I took no pictures. I lived it man.
