Metamorphasis
Maybe its just the class but i really like this book metamorphasis. its really open to interpretation. i'm going to assume you've read it cause there's no way i'm summarizing it for you, my unanimous reader. well i've had a few theres that have pretty much been thrown out by the class, but i feel pretty good about them. i feel like a wild book needs wild theories about it. I had one the first day that when he turns to a bug it is al a dream and that was pretty well received by the class and the teach even brought it up as the main point of discussion the next day. So this encouraged me to come up with more. I had one idea that the time that had originally thought he was dreaming that he was really dead. explaining why the clerk runs away in horror when he see him. Also why all the trash starts pilling up in his room. and why he never gets any more attention from the family. i had another idea that he was an illusion to jesus. this coming from the three men with beards that move in to the room that they rent out, saying that these three men are the three kings. argumenting this was that the author is jewish but he was a founding member of jews for jesus. and this could be his idea of what would happen to the coming mesia. that he would be used untill he runs dry and then ignored when in pain. OR MAYBE the family is judast and gregor is jesus on the cross. man this book trips me out but i couyld go on forever. i'm agnostic but i have this class after art history and we talk about religious stories all the time there.

Zednik
Hockey only really gets good press if some one got suspended for more than 20 games or there is some freak accident. The other day isn't much different. Richard Zednik is an awesome player for the panthers and the other night going into the corner his team mate fell in front of him and cut his neck with his skate. Doctors said today that the artery was hanging by a thread when they operated which probably saved his life. Had the cut been worse they would have had to find both loose ends and then reattach them, at which time his brain would have been cut off from blood for too long. Zednik, in an incredible feat of strength and toughness skated over to the bench on his own power to get attention. The game stopped for 15 minutes and only started back up after the blood was scraped up and a zambonie was brought out to resurface the ice. the teams did not go back on the ice till they had heard that they had stopped the bleeding.
i can't even imagine the thought that were going on in his head at the time. to hold your open neck in your hands has to be an incredibly sobering moment. especially when you were just playing an intense game just moments before. i am in awe of this happening and in the past 48 hours can not stop thinking about this. I don't pray so i'm going to hope that Zednik plays again some day after all these stitches. He's a great player but now he won't be remembered for his ability but for this incident.

had to get my Adobe Jawn going on in computers and made this warning label for myself. I've pretty much been living on coffee every morning so i thought it was appropriate. I'm not a huge fan of the text. Maybe it'll get some more work later, or maybe i'll just keep that in mind for the next project. I'll have to down load some new fonts too (Mental note).
