Big Bang Theory

This is one of my favorite shows.

The best part of the show is the jokes. I saw a few episodes with friends, and they didn't get any of the jokes. They had no idea why I was laughing...I just seemed crazy.

I have watched all of season one. I cannot wait until season two. I think that my favorite character is Sheldon, although there is a little of each character in me; which I think why the show is so universal in its appeal to geeks, nerds, and dorks.

Save the world

So I met a girl this weekend while leading a canoe trip and got her number. She was cute and could hold a conversation ... a rare mix around here. I have no idea if she is single or not but she was cool to talk with regardless. I think the best part is that she is not 'normal,' she is more off to the fringe, which I dig. But that is not the reason why I am writing about her, although it would be completely awesome to date her; the reason I am writing about her is that she got me thinking about life in general. She got me thinking about the things that I could do to help others.

So today I picked up a guy on the side of the road; he ran out of gas, he had been walking for over half an hour in the sun with the thermometer hitting over 100 deg. So I gave him a bottle of water, a lift to the gas station and lent him $5 [although I am not expecting him to pay me back, I just hope he passes along the favor].
