Travel Disasters

Sports have a huge influence on my life due to the fact that I'm interning for a sports team. And secondly, because I have hopes of working for a professional sports team someday. I'm sure many people have heard about the bus fatailty that occured this past weekend. A sad story for all those people involved in sports. This hit close to home because of my devotion to the local minor league hockey team as an intern and the guys I have grown to love as individuals and accept their wild personalities. The Jets were on the road this weekend and they too had something to say about the incident. As the players sat around the lobby early Saturday morning, the buzz was the bus accident. Knowing that they too would be on the road in a few hours made them weary of what can happen on the road. It made me think of how, in a quick short turn, I may never see these players again. And the fact that the interstate 94 had been closed the previous night didn't make anyone feel comfortable about driving.

Take a moment and remember those who were lost in this fatal accident.

True Happiness

If I actually had real followers on here I might get some feedback on what truly makes you happy? Think about it......how many people can honestly say they are TRULY happy. And if you say, "Yes" I want to know your secret. Everyone has a bad day or two or a shitty situation that they wished they hadn't had to go through. But I do believe there are really, actual happy people out there, And I used to be one of them, Or maybe I was just young and naive at the time as well. The paths we take, the experiences we make, and the people we meet will all contribute to happiness. But I also think that there are too many people out there who aren't happy but aren't willing to take the steps to find out what it is that is making them unhappy and then make the change. For my instance, I have been jumping from job to job thinking that I was missing out on utilizing my creativity that I love so much.  I didn't like the daily task of data entry and poor work environment...

How's My Wave?

As I was driving back from Minneapolis after picking up friends from the airport at 6AM, I was trying to stay awake and read the billboards as I was making the treck up to wonderful Moorhead Minnesota. There really isn't anything amazing to look at besides words on signs after Fergus Falls. However, as I neared Barnsville, and noting (only 30 more miles) a sign on the left side of the I-94 caught my attention. There was Cenex sign, with a 3-D Cenex man waving at those passing by with a speech bubble " How's my waving?" And then a number followed 1-877-CHAT. Now, I have no idea what the purpose of this billboard is. I have been contemplating this for the entire weekend. Is it brand recognition? A friendly hello? The billboard itself isn't selling anything, but it does catch the drivers eye. Whoever designed this billboard was creative, but I'm still confused as to what the object of this billboard is. Do they really want people to call and 'chat...
