The Spartans tip off against the Kansas Jayhawks tonight at 9:37 p.m. I predict a big game out of Ramar Morgan, he had 13 points and 8 rebounds in State's convincing 75-62 win over Kansas in January. As far as the outcome is concerned, Kansas will not be defeding their title in '09 as they will be knocked off by MSU tonight. Final score 78-70. Here's a highlight reel of a little of what's to come...

FML
Often when I have some downtime, I swing by the site FML to burn a few minutes. Basically the premise of the site is that those who have experienced an unfortunate event, post the story for everyone else's entertainment. So if you're in the mood to laugh about others' misfortunes check it out. Here are a few samples:
- Today, I went to the gym with two of my friends expecting to pay a guest fee but the cute guy working at the front desk let me in for free. On the way out after working out I started to flirt with him and he said "Don't flatter yourself, I just let you in because I'm lazy." FML
- Today, I went to have dessert with my boyfriend. We ordered some Jello. I said that I loved Jello because it is so fun and jiggly. My boyfriend said, "Like you. Except the fun part". FML
- Today, our school had tryouts for chorus. Everybody sang a snippet of the song together until the teacher stopped us, saying it sounded awful. He singled me out and told me to sing alone. After I sang the part, he said, "Son, your gift to God will be silence." FML
- Today, my parents said that they bought me a car. I had been begging for one for a year and they always said that I would have to pay for it myself. I got really excited and went to the garage to see my new ride. It was a Hot Wheels car with a note saying "save your money". FML
- Today, my parents told me they were going out for dinner tonight. I jokingly responded "Sweet! I am totally having a keg party then!" My dad responded "Keg parties are only for kids who have friends." He was serious. FML
- Today, I was at a club with my girlfriend of only two weeks. As we were dancing, another woman grabbed my ass from behind me and squeezed. I yelped and turned around to see my mother as the culprit. My girlfriend punched her. I found out my mother is a Cougar and my girl has a mean right hook. FML
- Today, it's my 18th birthday. My parents got me a $5 gift certificate to Itunes. It came for free with the iPhone they just bought my sister for her middle school graduation. FML
- Today, a co-worker and I walked out of our office at the same time. He got in his car, which was parked right out front. I asked him what I had to do to get a sweet parking spot like that. He proceeded to roll up his pant leg and show me his prosthesis. He was in the handicapped spot. FML
- Today, a kid I coach on a regular basis was talking to me about what I did outside of work. After we were done with the conversation, she told me with a straight face that I need to get a life and get a boyfriend. She's 10. And she's right. FML
- Today, I repaired a boiler for a wealthy guy in a big house. While there, I fixed a leaking tap for free. When I went to go, the man slipped something into my shirt pocket and said "have a drink on me." When I got to my truck, I discovered that he'd given me a tea bag. FML

Lions new logo and uniforms
The lions made some slight alterations to their logo design and jerseys. The lion logo aka "Bubbles" is far more ferocious looking than in years past....

order in the court!
So apparently Allen Iverson lost an appeal yesterday and was forced to pay $260,000 in damages to a man named Marlin Godfrey. The incident occurred back in 2005 when Godfrey refused to vacate the VIP section of a club. Iverson's bodyguard proceeded to smash his face in with a bottle as well as kick and punch him mercilessly. In the end Godfrey suffered a concussion, a burst blood vessel in his eye, a torn rotator cuff, cuts and bruises, a ruptured eardrum, as well as emotional injuries. Iverson stood idly by watching the events unfold and according to the court was therefore liable.
This news story got me thinking of all the ways in which people aquire funds via lawsuits. While Godfrey seemed to have a fairly convincing case, I found a list of some of the most ridiculous suits of all time: top 12.

whats up?
I realize that I have blatantly disregarded my blog over the past few days. I apologize, the only excuse I have is that I've been swamped with the projects I'm working on. I was asked to design two t-shirts for my frats upcoming Derby Days fundraiser. In addition I've been busy creating promotional material for my ADV 486 class. Here's a few examples of the work...

Back in action
-I would have posted sooner, but I had a big exam I had been studying for. I can gladly say that I gave it the business, 46/50...
-On our return trip from Florida one particular billboard caught my attention, it read: Big Jim's Boobie Bungalo. Now I realize how the old man manages to put us through college, his lucrative "investments".
-I was in a rush to purchase groceries yesterday due to a group meeting I had scheduled. So I grabbed one of Meijer's mini carts for maximum maneuverability and went about my business. Seeing as I purchased mainly produce I avoided the self-checkout lanes, in order to bypass inputting so many numbers. I found a standard line with two other patrons waiting to be checked out, one being an elderly woman. The second I whipped my mini-cart around the corner to enter the lane the old lady ripped a hiroshima-esque fart. Needless to say the wheels on my cart never came to a complete stop as I redirected to an alternative lane. At this point I was willing to sacrifice time for comfort. The worst part about it was her blatant disregard for the event's occurrence. One perk was the entertainment I received when an unsuspecting shopper unknowingly entered to "blast zone." She gave that bitter beer face look as if she tasted the fart. I was surprised she could smell it over the aroma of the old lady's perfume: kitty litter splashed with a hint of moth ball. (Sorry I know this blurb was insensitive and gross but I'm bored and have nothing to write about)
-Facebook has a new layout in which they blatantly knock-off the concept of Twitter. Twitter is "a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing?" Facebook has incorporated this into their homepage, solely for the purpose of ad revenue. Oh well that site is basically dead to me by now.
-So the NCAA tournament starts today and I'm beginning to lose track of all the brackets I've filled out. Jeff made one particular group in which he as well as Dave, Chad and I will vie for $50 in cash and prizes, ooooh exciting. Look for MSU as they match up first round Friday at 9:50 p.m. vs. Robert Morris, which should be a curbstomping.
-I applied for a job working for Nielsen which is a market research company. The job entails working from home analyzing radio advertisements. We'll see how this pans out, they haven't responded as of yet.
-I saw the movie Watchmen last night and was thoroughly impressed, I will let my boy Sexman give you the scoop:

Flo-Rida
So as you may or may not know I'm leaving for spring break tomorrow. Therefore I will be going MIA as far as the blog is concerned (no thanks to the hooligan who gripped my laptop). Don't worry, by no means do I intend on being featured in the next episode of Cops: Panama City Beach Patrol.
