Random Thoughts: Things Don't Get Better Until After You Leave

Apologize for addressing this first, but...


Give it up for Methodist University, folks! The Monarchs could be on the verge of hiring a younger, visionary president to lead the school into the future. In addition, we were approved for a four-year nursing program without any recommendations! The school received over 100 admission apps. shortly after everything was confirmed.

Now I believe in my heart of hearts that the aggressive posture toward getting this program off the ground is a gimmick to draw more female students to the university.. but the HUGE need for nurses in our society and the failure of Fayetteville State's program creates a void that Methodist has decided to fill. This, along with the other new buildings being constructed, signifies an institution on the rise. I predict a ratio of 63 to 37 next year because of these developments, and I do hope that this works and this evens things out academically, socially and gender-wise. I pray that the University treats nursing like it does PGM, because there's money to be made here.


Also...

I haven't really been around a lot of people lately, but I knew that the Saints were going to be victorious in the Super Bowl because of God's will.

This transfer process at work could be harder than I thought. That said, I believe the 13th of February could be my last appearence at Izzy's, because of the move. I hope the associates I have left there can get in touch with me...

I don't know if the NFL will ever return to Los Angeles, in large part because of apathy from the money people down there. However, if Jacksonville fails, I'd rather have them go down there than London, England. Ick. L.A. had its chance when Houston beat them out for the 32nd team back in 1999.

I doubt Methodist University's revenue sports (football, basketball) will be hard pressed to field a consistent winner in the forseeable future. High tuition, rising standards=few black recruits. Among other reasons.

I was worried about Hulk Hogan and his thugs ruining TNA Wrestling in 2010, but now I'm feeling better now that I believe Vince Russo still has some power over the writing of the TV show. The man is a genius. I believe that TNA circa Sept.-December 2009 was honestly his best work.

All this conversation about Focus on The Family's controversial ad climaxed with Tim Tebow tackling his mother??

The Logic Junkie is yet another person I cooled off on since I found God. To me now he seems whiny and arrogant. Too bad he's not producing videos anymore.

Sharron Sypult will be missed at Methodist, and I was appalled to hear of her firing.

God Bless.
