March Madness - What goes around, Comes Around

I had USC playing KU in a re-match and losing. How wrong was I, not as wrong as most, my bracket was in the 58th percentile. Virginia Commonwealth rocked the world last week, but Wichita State in the NIT is taking New York City and the great Madison Square Garden by the throat with a dominating performance, crushing Washington State by more than thirty points. Wichita State lost to VCU by one at home on a contoversial foul call that sent the Rams' star point guard to the line with .4 seconds remaining in regultion. Earlier in the year Wichita State played an unranked UCONN squad in the Maui preseason tournament and lost due to zebras with heavy lungs and a 29 point second half performance by arguably the best player in the country. I'm predicting Butler vs. Kentucky in the tournament final. What concerns me about the final four of the NCAA Tournament is Connecticut, not to take anything away from their brilliant freshmen and Kemba Walker, but their coach, who broke the rules and won't serve the consequences the proceding season. This is madness because the general public, discounting sports figures, don't get away with breaking laws, until it's convenient. The truth that money, popularity, and television runs the social spectrum is obvious. We don't need a magnifying glass to see that Jim Tressel at Ohio State should be fired for lying to the NCAA, let alone his own employer, Ohio State University. Personally this has very little affect on all of us but I guess life was meant to be unfair so when these issues arrise we should continue to pursue that which affects us the closest, including watching the coverage of the all falsing press. When will we make the ultimate sacrifices to save our integrity. This is an afterthought, Paradise doesn't concieve these issues. Oh well, I keep winning money on the ish, *uck it.

PCB, FL The South and One Long Pretentous Fairy Tale

This is what life existed for.. Baseball on the beach ending with a dome-check from aiming at beercans off of pvc pipe stuck in the white sand. Spring break was so eventful, I couldn't find any other reason to leave but to come home and bury my head in books in order to get back to paradise. When I got back to Wichita I found myself ornery enough to begin something, something I had convinced myself I wouldn't do continuously throughout the 22 hour drive home, download new music. It's lack of significance is disheartening but I guess it's one of the few necessary mind-warping guilty pleasures I endulge in. In the bottom picture Jon and I are finishing up at the beach, walking back to the Majestic Resort Thursday, two days before the beginning of the rest of our lives. The people in Panama City are amazing, full of joy and beauty. It's hard to believe only 12-15 thousand inhabit the area especially with their greatest season lasting 9 months.

I. Had. The time of my liiiiife. With epiphanys evident in the social, evolutionary, and the unreal perspective, dreams exuberated reality. Moderation is the key in every fathomable way, but Kid Ink's song "Let it Go," speaks the pursuit of life, work for happiness, I think therefore I chase. Steady pace, keeps the race. Tap it.

Side Note- Jackson, Mississppi has extremely good cajun, if you order the right entree (Crawfish etoufee). ;) Big Hair, heeeeey!
