EDITORIAL: Procrastination: It’s What’s for Dinner

Procrastination:  It’s What’s for Dinner
An Editorial by KC

I graduated from college this past May, and as I look back and reflect I wonder just how the hell I did it!  I know that most of the articles and pieces that you find on this site are pop culture related, but I also think that life improvement is an important service that we might extend to our wonderful readers.  It is a desire to improve that has led Junior and the (formerly) Amazing Gordo to partake in a competition, The Weight Loss Challenge of 2011 (and you know that you will be telling your children and great grandchildren about this historic event.)  So inspired by the dedication of these two, and having missed two huge deadlines for this website, I have decided to write about an old enemy of mine…procrastination.

EDITORIAL: Being a “Muggle” in a Fake Wizards World

Being a “Muggle” in a fake wizards world
An Editorial by KC

I never really got the hype behind Harry Potter.  To me it seemed like a children’s book that I wasn’t really interested in reading.  Maybe if I was from a different generation I would be able to get behind them, but as it is I didn’t really care about the boy who went to wizard school and played flying broom related sports. 

This weekend I have never felt like more of an outsider than ever.  With all the hype and hoopla for the new and “final” Harry Potter movie my social networking feeds have been filled with people excited to see the climax of the story.  It’s interesting to me also that the book series has been out so people should pretty much know how it ends, but I guess that’s beside the point.  It seems the important thing about this series is how closely they stay to the book or something like that.  As you can tell, I really haven’t been paying attention.
