Hey I have been reading your blog the past few weeks for a class. I have had to write blog posts these past few weeks. I had to choose a blog that was similar to my topic, and your blog caught my eye. I like your rants, and honest straight foward opinion on your subjects.
If you would like take a look at my blog sometime would like to hear your opinion on it.
