Filler?

Last week I actually had enough time to write an article (and what an article it was!) so I figured I would save my shorter, more personal memorandum for this week due to me traveling back to Thisisafakecountry today. With any luck, I will make it to my home with as little swine flu as possible. With that explained, lets get started.

My name is Thisisafakename. My mother, Thisisafakemother, named me after my great grandfather; Thisisafakedeadguy. Ehh, I killed it already. Anyway, I appear to be the frequent flyer mile title holder for the group. I live and work anywhere and everywhere most of the time. So despite what some may say, I actually have a rather open mind and general knowledge of "how it is" not just here but around the world. In my travels I have seen things that have made me proud of my American heritage and I have seen things that make me feel rather embarassed about our society in the Nifty Fifty. A sample of this: By far, American's care more about what others think than any other society in the world. We tend have a ridiculous amount of compassion not only for our society but for others as well. The counter example of this would be the tendency that we absolutely can not fathom that others think differently and act/do differently than us. This however is not just a conflict from people from abroad, but it is within our own borders as well. You can go back to last week to see an example of how this can effect our social interacting. Point, no counter point, just anger. We need to lighten up a little bit. Do some listening instead of talking. I don't want to make people quit the internet on my behalf, but I also don't want people to be flat out weak.

O.K., more about me. I am done with school as of now, which may also put me in a slightly different demographic than most of the posters here, which I think is a good thing. Some may be shocked to find out that I actually went to and graduated from college, and to be honest, that makes me laugh. Those same people may be even more shocked to find out that I wrote for a daily publication at my school as well. I am excited to join this blog because I really do have a lot to say (I have been listening for quite some time) and I am excited to have an audience of people who can actually speak my language. My writings will be a bit schizophrenic at times due to me having a couple different writing styles. I will warn others in advance; I can have a dry sense of humor and rarely write anything serious. My metaphores can be dangerous, so look out. If I write a parody, I have no trouble using sick children or single mothers instead of zombies and dinosaurs. If it is dangerously close to touching home on an actual topic, it might just make you think. Even if you think I am wrong, I still am happy because I made you think. You have a counter point, I would love to hear it. I'm not the devil, though I am pretty sure King Solomon is. With that said, I have a plane to catch.

Regards,
Thisisafakename
