Day 2, Post 2

I originally intended this as a bi-weekly updated venture, with the occasional side note as required to impart my wisdom and rants about life, but as I feel my introductory post lacked any real sustenance, I am going to make up for it.

Name: Jeremy

Occupation: Student, Engineer, Bringer of Joy and Harbinger of Death

Interests: Life, Bass guitar, Chocolate Milk

Jeremy Recommends: Living.

Sadly, in today's world people are focused too much on pop culture, fast food, and a cutthroat business world to take the time to live. They spend too much time behind a desk, in the meeting room, pouring over bills and reading pourly written blogs. This post is for those people. Pry your eyes from the computer screen, head out into the world with head held high and try some sushi, I heard the blowfish is delicious!

In your fast paced lackadaisical existence, you forget that the important part of life cannot be found on the television or online. It is not hiding in the game controller of your system of choice, and it certainly can not be found walled up in a cubicle where sunlight rarely graces. Life can only be found flirting with Death.

Wait. I do not mean to say that you should kill yourself, that's ridiculous. I do not want to lose the few readers I have. Instead put yourself in a potentially life threatening situation... with the added comfort of safety in mind of course.

Okay, let's start small. Hop behind the wheel of a sports car, head to the highway and open the throttle. Wind in your hair and hopefully that hotty riding shotgun, and the exhiliration of racing at blazing internet speeds! will do wonders for your body. First, the heart will start racing, your muscles will tense, your pupils will dialate and you will feel completely in control. Then you realize, as you step out of the sports car, and hopefully not into a cop car, your entire body feels alive. This my friend is the effect of adrenaline. Perhaps the greatest drug your body can produce. It's intoxication is mezmerizing, and you will always crave more.

If you do not have access to a nice Italian car complete with real Italian leather and a gorgeous Italian babe, try something else. Get creative. Try skydiving, swimming with sharks, gorge jumping. Most activities that have been tried and tested true by countless before you are completely safe but still offer that sense of near death. The body's natural reaction? Pumping a shot of adrenaline into your veins.

Trust me, its great. I've been getting my dose in different ways lately, and I am loving life.

With that, I'm off to refill my body's supply of Chocolate Milk.
