*LONELY IN ANN ARBOR*
Hey hey hey,
Well, Today marks the first day of Spring Break at Concordia. Many Concordites are going on choir tour, others are doing a mission trip down in Florida, while others are taking road trips to who knows where doing who knows what.....
I, on the other hand, am staying at Concordia. Yes. I know. This might be the most exciting week of my life. The campus will be so dead that I could run around the place naked without anybody noticing (I might just do that.. wink wink).
So, for the next week, I won't be updating this page, because I will be too busy protecting this campus from evil Non-Lutheran forces (hehehe, *grin*). Ha! Just kidding about the Non-Lutheran part. Anyway, I'll be away from the computer this week, so enjoy life!
Until we blog again,
Josh

*CHEESE CARS*
I'm back,
Welcome to my second blog. I have no doubt that this one will be just as good as the last one.
See, my best work always comes when I'm procrastinating in doing something else that's way more important. Did that make sense?
Well, I haven't gotten a lot of response about topic ideas yet, but I'll go with one of the better ones that was submitted.
Jeremiah Hoehner asks: "What if cars were made of cheese"?
Jeremiah, that is an excellent question! Imagine this, people - Cheese Cars! Now, my first thought was that this world would be a better place if all of our cars were made out of cheese. For example, depending on which kind of
cheese you would use, the cars would most likely be light and very agile. Because of this, we would be able to increase the speed limit, which means that we would be able to get to work faster, which means that we wouldn't have to get up so early to go to work, which means MORE SLEEP! This is a very good thing.
Now, I'm very confident that cheese cars would be durable - have you ever tried to bite through the cheese on our
cafeteria pizza? - and cheese cars would have a very long life span. But just imagine if your cheese car happened to stall while you're driving down a deserted highway in North Dakota? Getting Hungry? Not a problem!!! You wouldn't have to worry about starving to death, because you could just pull out a swiss army knife from your back pocket and cut out a nice big cheese chunk from your cheese car. It would help if you happened to have some ritz crackers to go with your cheese, but hey, if you're starving to death you can't really be picky, now can you? Or if you got into a car accident, and were laying prostrate on the ground and couldn't really move that much, chances are, a chunk of your cheese car would be lying somewhere close to your mouth, so all you'd have to do is turn your head a bit and gobble down that tasty snack! How convenient!
Wow. This is getting pretty long, so I might have to make this a two-parter. But before I leave, lets discuss a major drawback to cheese cars. After much thought, I've decided that the worst part about cheese cars would be how you store them. Do you put them in a regular garage? Well, no. For maximum efficiency, I would recommend converting your garage into a giant
refridgerator that would keep the cheese car from getting raunchy. Additionally, you would need to line the garage with mouse traps. A world filled with cheese cars would be a world filled with happy mice. And that is where the biggest problem lies - Rodent control.
I am offering a piece of bubble gum to the person who gives me the best idea for keeping mice from eating away my cheese car! You can email me at kittlj@hotmail.com or AIM me, my screenname is jbkitt
Well, we could go on and on about this, but it'll have to wait for another day, because all this talk of cheese is making me extremely hungry. Thanks for reading. And remember, you can win a cookie by submitting cool topic ideas for my future entries!
Humbly Yours,
Josh K.

*READ MY BLOG - WIN A COOKIE*
Hello There,
How's it going? Welcome to my blog!
Ya see, my brother suggested I start this wonderful hobby of blogging, and I jumped at the chance. I mean, cmon, just the sound of it makes me happy. Altogether now - "Blog!" Say it again, with feeling! - Blog!!
Well enough of that!!!
Anyway, I understand that most bloggers have some sort of theme to their blogs. For example, there are blogs about Politics, Sports, and video gaming, and there's probably even a "Sewing with Bob" blog out there if we searched hard enough. But, I'm not really an expert at anything, so I'm kind of struggling to figure out exactly what this blog should be about. I'm not a rocket scientist, so that basically rules out any discussion on the exciting elements of rocket design and space exploration. I'm not a vegetarian, so I'm not really going to discuss the delightful contents of a Gardenburger, nor would I ever want to. And since I never got a hit in the one season that I played little league baseball, you can be confident that I will never provide you with batting tips in this blog.
So what should I talk about?? Think.. Think... Think..
*Light bulb flickers over Josh's head*
I got it! You the audience will choose the topic for me. If you wish me to rant about the price of hot chocolate in Kazakstan , i'll do it! If you think I should write a bitter commentary on the state of affairs in the United States Air Hockey Association , I will! Or if you want me to discuss why we need to install stoplights in High School hallways, i would be happy to oblige you (in fact, I actually did a paper on that!). So, be creative, and when you have a topic that you'd like me to tackle, feel free to leave me an Instant Message (screenname: jbkitt) or email me at kittlj@hotmail.com
And here's some extra motivation for ya: If you come up with the topic of the day, you will be officially recognized on this web-site, and will also be given a chocolate chip cookie (unless you live far away, because I really don't want to have to put the cookie in bubble wrap and then in a big box, and then put tape on the box, and then, well you get the point). Here are some suggested topics that you could vote for, if you didn't want to think of anything on your own.
1) Orange Juice vs. Apple Juice - No Contest!
2) Why my mother is better than yours (I don't mean to brag or anything)
3) Should I go Bowling over spring break?
4) Creative things you can do with all your baseball cards
5) What if the world was made out of butter?
Feel free to vote for any of these topics. Thanks for reading. I hope you've had as much gee-golly-excitement reading this blog as I had writing it. I appreciate any comments you might have about how i can improve your blogging experience. Until we meet again....
Your Humble Blogging Servant,
Josh
Question for the Day: How many times was the word blog (or any form of the word blog) used in today's blog? (First person to answer me via AIM or Email gets a piece of bubble gum)
Link of the day: Catch Lord of the Rings fever with The Hobbit Name Generator (I am the notorious Bolo Hamwich of Buckleberry Fern!). Try it out!
