Oatmeal

What a strange food oatmeal is. I understand grains and oats are a great staple of the modern human diet, but who looked at that first pile of oats and said, "if only that was mushy".

On an unrelated note (that's a lie, it's what I'm watching while I eat oatmeal) "The Hurt Locker" is a fantastic movie.

"This is a stupid post" you are saying, and you are right. But I've been writing a paper for a great amount of time this week. Each sentence was carefully crafted to be understandable, yet informative. Every sentence, so jam packed with information (useful only to a minority of scientists, mind you) that I was CONVINCED they must be run-ons, and yet no. That was how it was meant to be. Those sentences were exactly what they should be. I need to get back to writing that, so the only thing I can offer you at this time is some insightful sentences on oatmeal.

Now the guy who first put cinnamon in this mushy concoction, he was truly a gift to his people.

Oh, and did anyone here about the fine the RIAA is putting on a student from Boston for downloading 30 songs? 30 songs = $675,000.00 Back in June some poor lady got fined $1.92 million for 24 songs. So not only are the RIAA's fines insane, they also don't even fit a linear scale. Seriously though, I'm never, NEVER going to purchase a cd again. Ever. Oh, I'll support the artists through digital downloads (so long as they aren't signed to a label in the RIAA), but I'm done. To put this into perspective OJ Simpson was fined 33.5 million dollars in punitive damages during the civil trial for wrongful death of two people. That's about 420 song downloads in RIAA math.

210 downloaded songs = 1 murder

and justice for all.
