Rant of the Day
I’m running out of negative 50 Shades of Grey reviews to post on here (though they are hilarious). Instead I’ll focus on something a bit more serious, and troubling; the Penn State Cover-Up.
For any of you who have read or are reading FLEXON VALE you know that ZENO STATE is a reference to the big-time universities that ARE RUN BY FOOTBALL. Let me repeat that; the big-time universities like Texas, Florida, Penn State, Southern California, Wisconsin and Michigan ARE RUN BY FOOTBALL. What, do you think if Urban Meyer or Brady Hoke were approached with a pedophile (or any situation) they’d quickly raise the alarm, call the New York Times, and lavaleer the evil doer, especially if said evil doer was an assistant coach?
The difference with Joe Paterno is that fans of college football would have expected more from him. He built himself up as a God, even if he denied that vehemently, by projecting this image of goodness and pureness, and we’re going to do it the right way, and SUCCESS WITH HONOR, and the GRAND EXPERIMENT and now it all looks like a bunch of bullshit.
FLEXON VALE is highly effective in exposing the big-time college football party school and Americans should open their eyes. From a 2-star review of FLEXON VALE, “For one thing, I found it extremely difficult to keep track of the characters since all the men spoke the same, partied the same, treated women badly in the same way, etc.” Yep, that sounds like I captured the frat boy culture pretty well. There are Penn States all over the country and another scandal like it can happen at any given moment because of the crazed devotion developed while growing up and while attending the schools.
My prediction for Penn State: the NCAA isn’t going to shut down the program. That will annoy the vultures in the media who are so unoriginal and inept, but it’s true. They’re not about to economically devastate an entire region for the sake of pleasing the crowd. No, they are going to do something worse to PSU. (I know what you’re thinking.) What could be worse than shutting down the crown jewel? They will make PSU vacate all wins since 2001. They will make PSU remove Joe Paterno from all records and structures. The statue, gone. Peachy Paterno (ice cream), gone. Paterno Library, renamed. (The horror, the horror.)
If the nation was shocked by the November 2011 riot just wait (and get the popcorn ready. And, of course, pick up your copy of FLEXON VALE for $2.99 on Amazon.com.)

Whoa. The remains of a giant squid — a creature...
Whoa. The remains of a giant squid — a creature rarely seen by humans — turned up in Australia. Scientists believe it died battling a sperm whale.
Very little is known about giant squids, massive creatures that live thousands of feet below the ocean surface and can sometimes grow to nearly 60 feet in length. Japanese researchers only captured the first images of a live giant squid in 2004.
Clyde Roper, a Smithsonian zoologist and squid expert, says the creatures can be found in all the world’s oceans. And as for what the carnivores eat? “Anything they want,” Roper tells The Daily.
Worst Pick-Up Line Ever
Um, so this is hilarious. Via Craig’s List:
You farted in Trader Joe’s - m4m (Oconee)
You were the tall brunette with the near perfect body that farted in the bread section last night. I was the tall guy next to you that looked over and asked, “Was that you?” You quickly replied, “No—wasn’t me!” You seemed almost insulted I would ask. As the stink grew, you continued to deny your flatulence, but it was evident. I tried to get rid of the stench by waving 2 loaves of Ciabatta bread. You proceeded to storm off in an angry manner. You are beautiful, and even if you are a liar and fart like a Clydesdale, I’d love to meet up sometime.
