If you are the next Joel Olsteen you can make a fortune in ministry. Hell you don't even have to be that guy just charismatic and kind of shady.

Ok joking (sorta) aside. Finish up that degree and pursue ministry on the side. My uncle is an engineer but a deacon at our church as well. He seems to have really found a great balance there.

If you want to do real good in this world you need money and lots of it. So biomed engineering sounds like the right track there.

I was mildly excited when a new standalone building was going up in the neighborhood, hoping it was a new food place that I didn't have access to before. All of those hopes were dashed when they added the familiar mustard yellow awning of ANOTHER [expletive] SUBWAY. Why? There are already three Subways within a two mile radius of this spot. Is the market for rotten meat on cardboard ass bread really that bullish? I'm super confused why you would build an entire new building for one, either. I thought Subways were some kind of elaborate government bailout to prop up all of the failing strip malls. They should be sold on the street from hot dog carts at this point.

I'm watching The Wigmaster on Hulu. I totally forgot about Clearly Canadian and it was way ahead of its time.

Good rant. We just had a Jersey Mike's open close to us. I thought it was a much better alternative.

They actually just recently announced it was going back into production and will start showing up in stores soon. The peach and blackberry ones were pretty clutch.
