Greetings "All",
This blog, was written to adress something that I, and "others" feel strongly
about. Here we go, I would like to adress the "Eternal" question, of which is
it better to be, an "Jock",or an "Nerd/Geek"?? Well when examining this
question,it brings to mind severeral personal, questions of my own. 1. Why,
are "Jocks" the ones "Mostly" with all the people thinking that their,
"Kooler" in society "Especially" "Some" of the woman?? 2. If "Jocks" are so
"Kool", then why are "Some", of them being worshiped in "Society" as Gods when
they, either enter, or are fighting in our "Armed-Forces/Military"?? 3. If
their so "Kool", then why do "Some" of these entitys think that
Sports/War/Killing, are "Kooler",then "Creativity/PEACE/LIFE"?? These
questions, in my "Honest" opinion, just bring to the surface "More"
questions?? I mean when did an,sports star, or an athelete ever change
mankinds destiny by throwing, or shooting an ball/Etc through some type of
goal?? Also why, is being involved in an "War", "SO-Kool", when thousands of
"Innocent" people die, in wars, or are wounded/Etc?? Also when has ever
killing, an "Animal" much less an more evolved one, such as an human being
solved anything?? In my opinion, if your going to hunt, an animal then do as
the "Native-Americans" did by using the "Animal",in its entirety, such as
food/clothing/Etc,"NOT" by slaughtering, the "Animal/Persons",in cold blood
based on what "Some" of society thinks, or an "War-General" with too many
metals, on his shoulder, to tell the "Difference", between the "Right" and
"Wrong" ways to solve problems?? Lastly, if "Jocks", are viewed, as being so
much "Kooler",in the eyes of society, by playing sports/Fighting/Killing
people/things, then weres the room for us "Nerds/Geeks", who "Love" to "Create
things/Solve-things-"PEACEFULLY"/Enjoy "Life", and treating others with
kindness, not an "Bullet in the head"??
Thus brings me to my conclusionary part, of this blog. Heres an "Old"
Joke/Comparrison, between which is it "Better" to be in this world, and to
what is "Truely" the "Kooler", of the two. "ENJOY"!!!

The answer to the eternal question "Is it better to be a jock or a nerd?"
Michael Jordan makes over $300,000 a game. With $40 million in endorsements,
he makes $178,100 a day, working or not.
If he sleeps 7 hours a night, he makes $52,000 every night while visions of
sugarplums dance in his head.
If he goes to see a movie, it'll cost him $7.00, but he'll make $18,550 while
he's there.
If he wanted to save up for a new Mercedes S-Class ($90,000) it would take him
a whole 12 hours.
Assuming he puts the federal maximum of 15% of his income into a tax deferred
account (401k), he will hit the federal cap of $9500 at 8:30 a.m. on January
1st.
If you were given a penny for every 10 dollars he made, you'd be living
comfortably at $65,000 a year.
Amazing isn't it?
However, if Jordan saves 100% of his income for the next 250 years, he'll
still have less than Bill Gates has today.
Game over. Nerd wins

Thus proves my "Point" what did, us "Nerds/Geeks/Kool-People/Etc" "Ever" do to
this "Society/World" that was bad...Except give a damn, and have ideas, which
"Some" others poke/make-fun at;-(
