I wish people would stop saying "FML" or F*** My Life. It's really a negative attitude towards your own life and I really hope people aren't that distraught over issues in their life that in the grand scheme of things are minutia.
But here's a list of things that could be true "FML" situations:
Somalian pirates seize your ship. Things look rosy because they assure you they mean no harm. Plus, their AK's are terribly rusted. But then your girlfriend decides to cheat on you with said pirates. Later on, you find out that your girlfriend has been involved with Asad and his entire clan of pirates prior to the takeover. FML.
Libyan terrorists try to kill you because your friend stole plutonium from them, forcing you to retreat in a DeLorean. But little did you know that the DeLorean was capable of time travel. Oh and you almost make whoopee with your mom. FML.
You are on the nation's most popular game show. You are two questions away from winning $1M. The host and the show's producers believe you're cheating because how could a simple kid from the slums possibly do so well in an affair where even the intelligentsia have failed. The producers proceed to tie you up and submit you to a battery of tortures, including one that involves a battery and your nipples. FML....BUT, you end winning and finally reuniting with the love of your life. Yes My Life!
You shit your pants. FML.

Now for my last meeting of the day. FML.
How has the subprime mortgage meltdown affected people who live in glass houses?
Was Right Said Fred indeed too sexy for his shirt?
Is Lil' Wayne still makin' it rain on 'dem hoes despite economic woes?
"Sex on Fire" sounds unnecessarily painful and extremely dangerous.
I don't care how much fruit you're eating, Pac-Man. The amount of pills you take is unhealthy.
Are all Twilight fans idiots?

I'm lucky to have some great friends. We can talk about everything from the economic and foreign policies of Narnia to what brand of toilet paper we find most absorbent(Charmin ftw). But there is one very important arena of my life that my friends and I can't seem to discuss. That part of my life is boxing.
I love boxing. It is an incredible sport that takes one's body and mind to extremes that very few people have experienced. Imagine running a 10K, but all the while having to anticipate, dodge, and take punches to the face. For most of us, figuring out if tonight's episode of Heroes is a re-run(which with the way this season's going, would be better) is the most daunting task of the day. And unlike that barbarian's sport, MMA(UFC), this sport is one of more strategy than the puncher's chance. On any given Saturday, any MMA fighter can beat any other fighter with one mistake, one punch. In boxing, the same principle can be true, but more often the victor in the lighter weight divisions is determined by who has studied the other opponent better and can utilize the better strategy. That is not to say that speed, strength, and luck don't make a difference.
So in light of all that, I'm asking all of you reading this to become fans of boxing. This Saturday(12/6), what is likely to be one of the most electrifying matches in history is going down. Oscar De La Hoya, a legend in the boxing ring, has recently seen some upsetting losses. Some consider him now more of a businessman than a boxing man. This is the image he hopes to erase by facing Manny Pacquiao, the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world. Manny has had a meteoric rise to the top and has seen very few challenges. De La Hoya could be that great challenge due to his drastic advantage in size and experience.
If you have 30 minutes and wish to see one of the best short documentaries, please watch the De La Hoya/Pacquiao documentary I have posted below. It's incredible to see the perspectives of not just the boxers, but also the trainers and families.
Peace up, A-town down.

To all of you wiser than me, how does one find a business partner. I have blueprinted a product and a business and I am looking for an intelligent and good-natured tech-expert(engineering-wise) to be the ying to my yang.
Now I've looked through all my friends and none of them seem to fit the bill or are interested at this point. Where do I look now? Please help me internet friends! You're my only hope;)
