Hurricane Katrina

Not that I want to change the content of this blog or where it is going, but with this tragedy fresh in our minds and hearts I wanted to touch on it and give out a message of my whole hearted compassion regarding it. I held off till now just so I can fully get an idea of what happened, and try to find and hear the reasons why. If you have the ability, please donate money, time, blood, whatever you can to those people that have had their lives ruined. I personally know how hard it can be after having just a house fire and having to sift through the reckage. What would it be like to have your home, nieghbors, job, and entire city wiped out?

With the message of compassion also comes the whys, and I would ask that the country not turn a blind eye to the failures of the federal goverment. I would directly point the finger at George Bush, our president, who has failed once again to lead. If anything, his inability to coordinate and oversee that a job is done and followed through with is embarrassing and if it wasn't for this horrid tragedy the world, and most of us, would be laughing at his bumbling. Honestly, a whole city and large parts of a state are wiped out and there isn't military personal brought in to maintain order and help. Whether it is the guard, army, whatever it doesn't matter. There should have been something there and deployed within the first few hours. What if this would have been a nuclear blast or something else? Could we have reacted? From Bush's constant failure's as leader I would say no.

Thank you for taking the time to listen to me rant once again.

WoW till your blue in the face

We don't even want to start discussing the disgusting amount of time that I have dedicated to this game. If you don't own World of Warcraft, seriously get out from under your rock and buy it. With the price of gas these days, it is going to be the only way us gamers are going to be able to play anything that resembles the sit down dnd groups we are used to.

Which gets me started on the price of gas. Write your senator, congressman, state representatives and anyone else that even remotely can do anything about it. If we don't either get a replacement for gasoline as the standard fuel for America or do something with the price of gas this country is going to come to a grinding hault and our computer fun will be over because there will be no money to pay for it! That is right, I think we are well on our way to another great depression. This one lead because our President, George Bush, did not have the forsight to do anything to keep gas prices in check and now they are going to continue to rise. I have to pay nearly double what I paid for gas at this time last year. Where is that extra money going? Not to power our economy that is for sure. Do yourself a favor and do something about it!

Back to more fun things after my rant. World of Warcraft has been alot of fun so far. My Tauren Warrior on the Lothar server is named Magnorock and somehow I have made it to lvl 32. I most recently picked up a really cool axe for him that has a chance to unload a fireball upon hit. It is sweet! My other characters on the other servers have kind of fallen to the wayside. I just haven't had the time to play them. I had finals most recently again at Herzing, and they really cut into my play time. With just a week off between classes and piling in 6 days of work in a row to help come up with the cash to pay for my addiction...well you know.
