I know what you are thinkng and I am thinking the same thing, in your face Al Gore. That's right I said it when the rest of the world is to afraid to say it. Last Friday I went to plant some trees in China, in celebration of Earth Day, and to prove that I am better than Gorie. So after my class on Friday I was driven over in a brand new Chinese Buick Regal, it was quite elegant. I was told that I would be planting trees to help the environment. However when I arrived that all the tress had already been planted. "Oh so Al Gore showed up like a thief in the night and planted all the trees last night to steal my thunder." (indistinct grumbling) Actually all the trees were planted ast year by Finn and the other Americans, so I was apparentyl out on this moutain side on a ruse. Turns out in the words of the Chinese guy directing the event, we were there tomake the soil "fluffy". Yes that's right make the soil "fluffy". My hard work at turning that soil paid off though because it got my picture on the front page of the newspaper. I do have a copy of that paper and I will bring it home and auction it off for charity, becasue I am that kind of guy. So for my environmental pursuits I was offered the chance to join the planet rangers, apparently for the past 35 years they have been trying to re-assemble the planet rangers ever since that tragic oil fire incindent killed the little Indian boy. Which caused the guy from New York to go into a grief rage and use his fire ring to murder the polluters and 7 innocent bystanders. Which of course led to the stories we all saw of his trail and inprisonment and the black guys descent into alcholism becasue of it. The Russian girl disappeared after the wall fell of course and the Asain Girl marrried Yao Ming and had a baby. So they have been secretly trying to bring together the 5 most environmentally conscious people in the world to reform the team. So I was offered the oppurtunity to be on, I was totally jacked until they told me I was the 5 and final memeber so I got stuck with the heart ring. Seriously the heart ring, yippiee I can talk to monkeys oh boy. Why can't i have earth or fire those are cool. They told me no it was heart or nothing. I made them a deal give me fire and givr heart to the fire guy and I will do it. Turns out the fire guy is big Al Gore and he said no he wants fire casue it is the coolest. So he had a chance to bring Captain Planet back to earth to solve our environmental crisis and he turned it down because he had to be the fire guy. There's an INCONVENIENT TRUTH for you, way to go Gorie. So instead I am just going to be accepting the Chinese Environmentalist of the year Award later this month at a banquet in my honor, Jackie Chan is going to be there, Jacki Chan!!!Awesome!!
In other non Saturday Morning cartoon related news I am doing fine. I have spent the last week trying to explain to Chinese people that despite the monicker of "cold" the rhinovirus actually has nothing to do with the weather outside. It is actually caused by a virus. See I got a cold and was told I got it becasue I wasn't wearing 17 layers and I actually took my coat off indoors. Oh and I take a shower every morning, it is far to cold for a shower that is why I got sick. You would think people living and studying at a medical college would actually understand how infectious diseases work, but oh well, our moms have been telling us the same thing for yours. Also I still ave dysentery or Dan Jewett stomach cancer, or loose bowel syndrome, the medicine the doc gave me worked great till it ran out. So I got some more and it seems to be working but apparently I have either a tape worm, some other parasite, or after years of eating Taco Bell everyday my bottom has become dependent on it and the lack of it has given me the bowel equivelent of the DT's.
March Madness started sometime last night while I was asleep, Go Big Blue. The sad thing is I filled out some brackets but I really don't care. I haven't seen one college basketball game and I doubt I will see one. I still want Kentucky to win though. In other basketball news I played for the first time in like 2 months the other day becasue it is finally warm here, and I woke up the next day and couldn't walk. It stinks getting old, don't do it if you don't have to. That is all I got for you guys today, I am sitting in my office waiting for a student to show up to my office hours, which hasn't ever happened but I am sure it will one day, at least I hope it will.
