You smell that?

So, the hot news of today is a "pervasive" odor that's been sifting through the streets of Manhattan. At first, one would just assume it was Jersey, but that smell usually goes away after sometime. But unlike a normal gas leak, which happens all the time according to NYC mayor Michael Bloomberg, this odor was, and as of the time I'm writing, still is very prevelant in parts of the city. NYC is definitely not preserving the sexy today. I obviously find stories like these assuming, mainly because of the ridiculous overblown coverage of it. I mean, seriously, do we really need Soledad O'Brien, although she is good t.v. eye candy, reporting live from 34th and 8th asking people what to they smell? So to get to the bottom of it, I got in contact with my dear friend, Miss Erinn Johnson who is a self-proclaimed New Yorker, but in reality is from central Pennsylvania. If anyone would know what was going on, I figured it would be EJ.

Her response: "I don't smell shit."

It baffled me that someone who worked in Manhattan claims to have not smelled anything all day. I thought to myself, either EJ is lying or needs to have her nasal passages checked. Because, accoring to CNN, all of two people (insert sarcasm) were rushed to the hospital.

I'm not in anyway trying to minimize the dangers of a hazardous leak, but this story was clearly blown out of proportion.


In other news...

- I made a conscious effort to get up and attend church Sunday morning. I know the Lord and although he hardly didn't recognize me at first when I walked in the sanctuary on Sunday, I hope at least my face looked familiar to him. Nonetheless, I felt good on the inside to start the first Sunday of the year off in the house of the Lord.

-Speaking of going to church, for the first time in a few years, I actually wrote down about 10 goals in which I want to try and achieve this year. I won't discolse them, but when I do (and I will) accomplish them, I'll let you know.


Until next time...
