Livin sounds good to me...

I guess since I wasn't brought up during the crunk Greek wars and stuff my mind set is scewed away from theirs. I would much rather live a long average Joe life. If you live a long life not only do you get to raise a family, but you constantly get to learn new cool stuff. The knowledge one gets to learn in an 80 year life is magnanimous, while a 20 year life is more like wham, bam, thank you ma'am. And plus I want to be one of those old men that everybody thinks is so cute.:)

TRUCKS!

As a kid my favorite book was, "All Aboard Trucks." Each page was a huge illustration with a five sentence paragraph explaining the truck. It was awesome! My mom told me I made her read it every night for a month. Looking back at the book I can see why the binding is worn thin, it's actually interesting. Right now I could read the book and still want to read it multiple times. I think "All Aboard Trucks" sparked my interest in big trucks. Riding by a construction sight I find myself looking more at the machines than the road, sounds bad dont it.
TRUCKS RULE, COPPERS DROOL!

western mentality

The philosophy behind Siddhartha is to live poor as posible to obtain the highest spiritual understanding. Getting rid of all the wants and needs tunes the mind to a higher level. The higher level is where you can reach nirvana, which is a total understanding of the world around you. On the other hand western mentality is to pray to one god and give offerings, so when you die you rise to heaven. The mentality is to not understand everything that goes done, but to trust God and know everything happens for a reason. and when you die you will rise and understand...hopefully.
