random unspoken word...11/13 - 11/15

-I need friends and family in my life. I don't care if my friends are not successful, if they hate working out, or are content with working in a cubicle for the rest of their lives. They are my friends because of who they are, and how they make me feel, not because they can hook me up with something.









-Manny Pacquiao destroyed Miguel Cotto this weekend. Cotto was beat by a better fighter; plain and simple. Anyone who thinks Cotto ran away from Pacquiao is an idiot. Cotto was knocked down twice by the 4th round and was clearly affected by Pacman's speed. If you were knocked down twice and could not see your opponent's punches coming, can you honestly say you wouldn't be a little more cautious while fighting? Didn't think so.





-Once again, the topic of marriage and kids seems to come up in my recent conversations with friends. No, not me getting married or having kids, but my friends. I'd say its almost evenly split between one half being ready and the other half being far from ready. In any case, the most interesting bit of conversation went like this:

"How'd you know she was the one?"
"I don't know." (laughs all around the table) "Wait, its like an 80/20 thing. 80% is good and 20% is bad. But the 20% is not so bad anymore."
"You mean, you can like brush off that 20% and it doesn't bug you?"
"Yeah, pretty much."

haha...i thought that was pretty funny and a good way to put it...
