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.

Teenage Life Is Like...
Teenage life is like a melted box of chocolate. When you stick your hand in the box you don't know which one your going to get...because they're all melted together. You think you see a whole piece but once you pick it up the chocolate becomes lava goodness. Being a teenager means you know everything about everything. In reality when we stick our hand in we pull out a complete wrong answer.

The best Icon ever...
THE ATLANTA BRAVES "A"
When you see the Atlanta Braves "A" one thought should pop in your head, The Atlanta Braves. It also symbolizes a winning tradition and a rich history. When Hank Aaron surpassed Babe Ruth on the home run total guess what was on his hat... yes that's right, THE "A." In the 1995 World Series guess what was on the winning team's hat...yes right again, THE "A." The "A" also symbolizes 15 straight division titles, which is one of the greatest feats in team sports. Whenever I see the "A" not only do I think of a great team, but the summer nights of my younger years come to mind. Going to Fulton Stadium and just before entering looking up at the magnificants of the man built baseball heaven, that's what is engraved in my mind. Although the "A" may bring many different emotions to different people, the "A" symbolizes one great thing...southern tradition.

"When you come to a fork in the road take it."
-Yogi Berra
"I really didn't say everything I said."
-Yogi Berra
These two quotes, i think, symbolize how i live my life, sometimes. Although funny and nonsensical, Yogi's quotes make sense. Wow, that sentence was kind of a paradox. OKAY, no more of that. But truthfully, I feel like I do take the fork in the road. The fork to me is opportunity and I would like to think I take advantage of opportunities that arise.
I picked the second quote just because it's something I always seem to say to my mom. No lie!
