Drew and Matt are SUUUUUCH pussies who need to nut up

Drew and Matt - large men with no intestinal fortitude. Strong, intelligent men who, when the mercury heads north, become unable to think, write or blog about anything except the weather. Lemme tell you something, the weather is what people who used to date talk about because everything else is so fucking awkward, especially the Russian mail order bride you have in tow that you are nursing back to health after her cross-atlantic journey in a shoe crate, damn that is hellla awkward. The weather is what I talk about with my grandparents when they forget my name. The weather is what is currently making fat people in the bay area itch the areas in between their folds because sweat has been uncontrollably gathering and festering there. The weather is not that tight of a subject, except when Al Gore is dropping knowledge bombs or a twister picks up my baby girl just before i could have kissed her or dust storms, they are tight, or the desert, it is tight b/c when it's hot it's like "oh the desert is hot, HOW HOT, wow, how totally expected," and then when it rains there a plant blooms for the first time in 100 years, the 14 musicians who have journeyed there for vision quests put out really tight albums the next year.

Why don't we talk about me going THROUGH the weather recently when I went skydiving



actually that's not that great of a topic either, i mean it was cold, then it got warmer and my skin peeled back, weather.

A better topic would be to open up a wide-ranging discussion on what the fuck is wrong with this country, especially the youth, we'll say that means anyone from 3-34, because on one end that is about when you start to make more sense to other people and less sense to apes and on the other end right before you can be president, which makes you old and out of touch by default.

I posit that young people, and especially ones that I run in circles with at home/school/camp or younger kids who are my charges at camp do not give a fuck about the world. Sure, there are some do-gooders, mainly at liberal arts schools but this is not our parent's generations of broad social upheaval and protest. Now maybe that's because we aren't coming out of the mind-numbing, conformist 1950's as kids but still, there is tons of shit the matter with everything. July 14 was Bastille Day and at Camp we decided to celebrate it, teach kids about overthrowing the nobles and good revolutionary ideas like that which are too dangerous to learn in public schools cuz if you get too smart you'll figger out yer teacher is a robot clone. So we served crepes at breakfast and then encouraged the kids to "storm the bastille" and like take over from their counselors for a day and toss lifeguards in the pool and what not. The amazing part to me was that none of the kids gave half a shit. Then I realized these kids were already the nobility, they were all fairly well off and even at decently young ages had to know it. Know that they were predestined to get to a good school, get a decent job and have a comfortable life that won't necessitate doing anything too revolutionary. I don't know why but that kind of depresses me, I feel like when you are young you should want to buck the grain and challenge status quo's and not many people do that which overall probably makes things run smoother but I bet people's lives could be more fun if they just flung their shit at expensive things every now and then and hooted a bit.
