How To fall off the face of the World
Throughout the course of my time at college, I've gone through alot of transformations that I never thought I would. Not that anyone ever expects to change, it just sort of takes place. In any case, I've always really enjoyed writing, no matter what the subject is. After writing as much as I have, it made sense to find somewhere to put them together in a more organized fashion, so I did just that.

I enjoyed this. In fact your section on white guys is so true. I can dance OK but one night when a few of us went to a club we got the nights screwed up and ended up going on a night for HIP HOP. We were the only crackers there and when we were dancing I was looking around the floor. It is so true...we looked so bad compared to everyone else. I could see people chuckling. So I watched and tried to match some of the moves and damn it if I didn't learn a few good moves.
I have to say that I have no problem with this. I think the PC thing has gone too far. If it is done the right way and not meant to hurt anyone, sterotype humor is funny. I am a mix and when I am asked what nationality I am, I say 'Mongrel'. When we can't laugh at ourselves, we are in trouble. And I'll go further. If we can't accept that certain behaviors do seem to be exhibited by certain subcultures we are just being blind. It just shouldn't be used to hurt anyone. I'm part Irish and I'm not offended.
