Back To School/ No Mo' Beard/ Other Stuff

Ahhh, yes, to be back at my keyboard is grand. I totally didn't write one post the entire month of August. I would like to say it's because the comic book post was so freakin' awesome that it was hard to top it, but it wasn't really. The reason I haven't posted in so long is because of school. It seems like every time I turn around, I have some assignment coming my way. Not that now is any exception mind you (I have to do English, which entails reading the novel Moby Dick and writing three essays about it, I have to write a personality profile for Journalism and participate in a photojournalism project for Journalism also. This is all due within the next week's time.).
Speaking of Journalism, my blog will soon be a part of my Journalism class, which will include it being viewed by my teacher and critiqued on rare occasions. This is somewhat exciting because I truthfully believe only about seven people out there actually read my blog, so one more person is a definite ego boost for me.
Also, since I last wrote I have shaved my amazing, woolly, and generally awesome beard. I know, I know, settle down, it's gonna be OK. It will return again just in time for 'No Shave November' in a few months. My beard is basically just like Frosty the Snowman, except it comes back a month earlier than he does, and it will never have a cartoon show dedicated to it's greatness... or will it? It's times like these I wish I still had my beard to stroke when thinking ominous thoughts like the one you just read. It apparently made me look like Johnny Depp, or at least a friend and this creepy chick in my English class said it did. I didn't see it really. If I seriously looked like Johnny Depp, my social calendar would be much more exciting than it is right now. I'm looking at it right now and all it says is "Blog and eat chips". Lame.
Now for something completely different: This Halloween I'm going to be Jim Halpert from my favorite TV show 'The Office'. My friend Josiah will be Dwight Schrute, Matt Sartin shall be Andy Bernard, Travis Tyler will be Kevin Mallone and John P. Strickland will be Michael Scott. It shall be awesome. I was actually contemplating going to a concert on Halloween, but I decided against it. Downtown Louisville on Halloween or go to a church function and dress up as 'Office' characters? Hmmm... Tough call.
Again, something completely different: I had to watch Barack Obama's speech today to the Students of the U.S.A., and I was extremely confused. I thought this guy was gonna pull out some googly hypnotizing glasses that made me want to embrace communism and stop eating chips in favor of fiber injected yogurt, but all he did was tell me to do well in school. He sounded like an elementary school principal. He even reminded every student in America to wash their hands. I felt like I should be taking a nap after the video and then practicing my letters and getting a snack.
Well, sorry for all that randomness oh faithfull seven readers, but I feel like I've been mentally constipated all month and it's finally getting loose. I apologize again, for that mental picture you're getting right now.

Live long and prosper,

Noah

P.S. The swine flu is just the flu. Any difference between the two is caused by slight mutations of the flu in general. The only people who die have compromised immune systems such as the elderly, pregnant women and children, and those who have HIV or AIDS. The "Swine Flu" or "H1N1 Virus" is merely a scary name to keep us in the public from looking too closely at the economy and what exactly Barack Obama is doing in that there house on the hill. Don't believe the hype, but please continue washing your hands and sneeze into your sleeves. No one likes to shake hands and find a booger.

P.P.S. Check out the Ryan Adams clips on the bottom of the page. Ryan Adams is awesome and they are also awesome/hilarious.
