Good brand? Good beer!



One brand I buy habitually is Yuengling. This can say many things about  a man. Is he a drunk, does he have problems, is he classy, is he into history, is he proud to be American? With beer comes many assumptions. I mention the first few because in excess it can be assumed that someone is an alcoholic. I mention the last few because it is the oldest brewery in continuous production in America, and many a classy fellow drink this brew. What does this say about me? It says that I am a classy fellow that enjoys good beer.

Interesting Days



It was May of 2007. I had long hair, and I always had long hair ever since I could remember as a kid. I used to sit in my room all day on the computer playing video games such as Planetside and Star Wars Galaxies with my friends. I played video games constantly because it was my time, no one could tell me what to do with my freedom. All the while twisting and furling around with my hair. One day I joined the army, and my hair was shaven off to the skin. And along with it, my freedom.

Home


     Who am I? Yes, my name is Mike, but really who am I? I am a soldier, a scholar, a son, a brother, a hero, a villain... I am an American. I was born on a Tuesday in Mercy Hospital in Baltimore City, and 24 years later I have lived in this city ever since. For me however, home has always been more of a concept than a location. Home, I’ve felt, is always the thing you long for the most, no matter how far and long you’ve traveled. This is why Baltimore City will always, ALWAYS be my home.
