Dropping the Ball

We've all heard about the child abuse scandal at Penn State.  Chances are, you heard about coach legend Joe Paterno being fired as a result.  Or the outraged students.  But as this article states, "See with your own eyes what he did and how he did it, then have a thought."

After reading the grand jury testimony, I was absolutely disgusted. I honestly can not stop thinking about the atrocities laid out in the case against Jerry Sandusky and how many people could have stopped the abuse but failed - essentially dropping the ball.

High Achievers

There are numerous things I want to write about right now.  This morning I sat down at my computer with intentions to write and lots of ideas in my head.  I will probably regret writing this so quickly and without much thought.

I am proud of my friends.  Recently I read an article in Washingtonian titled, "Are Twenty-Somethings Expecting Too Much?" and it got me thinking about the type of people I have in my life and the decisions they make for themselves.  Career choices, significant others, ways they spend their time, what they believe in... some friends make me proud just to know them.
