Writer's Block
It's 1:45 am and I've been pacing around the halls of my dorm for about 2 hours now wondering what the heck to write about. I've got nothing. Sorry. Only two things really came to mind: 1) Why do Israeli's insist on going "ehmmmm" while the rest of the world says "ummmm"? Never quite understood this. 2) Is it possible for someone like me to have Writer's Block? I mean, does it have to be a professional writer, or can it pertain to a casual writer as well? I mean, we would never say that Kelvin Cato got a "shooter's roll" if he rimmed in a jumpshot, right? Or that Clint Eastwood had "Beginner’s Luck" on his Academy Award last night. So where do we draw the line on this exactly? Someone help me out a little here.
Therefore, I guess we'll just have to talk about the snow some more. Tonight I must have received at least 7-10 of those stupid weather bug alerts (truly the most annoying sound you'll ever hear, outside of the morning alarm for sure). Don't they have to close school then? From now on we should impose the '7-10 alerts' rule. Anyhow, it doesn't effect me that much being that I only have one class tomorrow (yayyyy 13 credits!). But everyone should know that I have come to have a "mutual respect" with the snow. The last time I had a "mutual respect" was in yeshiva in Israel - as my Rebbe so eloquently stated, "I give shiur. And you don't go." Somehow, it worked well for us.
In the sports world, my Rockets continued their patented "One step forward, two steps back" approach to winning. I guess they have one of those mutual respect type things going on as well. I saw three boxing movies in the past 48 hours. Rocky IV (roman numerals somehow make it look much more important), which was so inspiring it made me actually think about going to the gym. But don’t worry, I didn't move. Instead, I followed it up with Rocky V, and as ESPN's Bill Simmons likes to say "we should try and pretend like it never happened". Not long after the Oscars, I watched Million Dollar Baby to see what all the fuss was about.....and I'm still trying to understand what all the fuss was about.
OK it's been about 500 words. That has to be categorical violation of Writer's Block criteria doesn't it? Well I'm tired now anyhow. Later dudes.

Hahahaha Kelvin Cato, that's great J
Don't you have a 'mutual respect' with your bed Jason?
you have writer's BLOG, not BLOCK.
very funny everyone, very funny...
You are adorable J.
jason, i must say i find your little blog thingie quite humorous and entertaining.
why am i the only one that voted to have dinner with moses? moses is a happening dude, i would like to chit chat with him. i wonder if he likes tofu.
Moses liked mannah, not Tofu.
oh my god i hate those weather bug things!! they are so annoying. damn aim tricking you installing that with setting up new version of aol. i think moses probably has alot more intersting stories to tell than any desperate housewife or a teenage basketball star. i'd wanna know about the miracles and egypt etc. go moses!just accept the snow, stop fighting it.
i watched the oscars but still have yet to see the big deal with million dollar baby and hillary swank. although if clint eastwood directed it it must be good.... now u r considered a writer so u r allowed to have writer's block or whatever u want to call it!!!! lastly.. hm.. what was i going to say? oh yea- the pole dude. funny. before i saw the rest of the answers i thought it was going to be jason, jason, jason or jason. :) hm... i pick JASON!
Personally I'd like to have din din with Hugh Hefner, but since you and him are basically one in the same, and he's not a b or c, I guess you'll have to do. Happy Six Month anniversary littleness.
see, you ask questions and there are actually serious answers to some of them.... but somehow this doesnt seem to be the place for seriousness - it would just sound like i'm way too uptight - so if you actually want answers, let me know {cheery grin}
Youll have to explain the Hugh Hefner analogy to me later for sure "anonymous"...thanks for the congratulations.
Jason about the new poll, you kind of set yourself up for dissapointment. Next time write Jason Silverman or Osama bin Laden.... on second thought if you get bin laden to go to dinner with you you can get like 25 million dollars for inviting the FBI as well. Also, Im very dissapointed in the fact that Moses is not in first place, i mean he spoke to Gd! Keep up the good writing Jason
