Hi everyone, just thought I'd update everybody on Sports. I need writers. I need to contact my writers. If anyone wants to write, come talk to me or email me. Today four things are happening. Men's basketball plays the next to the last game of the regular season tonight. Should be a good one. Baseball is at SELa and Softball has a doubleheader. I can't go to any, because I have lab. Oh how this sucks. Gotta Go. Go Eagles! Joey

Long time no see.
Some things I am working on:

A couple in GA were arested/tried/convicted on child porn charges. They are 16 and 17, the porn they were convicted of producing, was of themselves.

I had a friend who was enterained by a professor and fellow athiest rediculing the religous right, but left in tears when he started bashing enviromentalists. Apparently you can be a "global warming denyer". Eviromentailism has become religion for some and even has its own "passion of the christ"

Hello everyone from the wonderful world of Sports. It is I, your friendly allknowing Sports Editor. Today I update the blog by providing my insight on my job and the world of Southern Miss Sports. First of all, old business. Long time no blog. Sorry. I need staff writers. I have three. Hess is my new assistant, I'm one, and I've recently added a new writer named Brittney I think. Sorry. Bad memory. If you read this and care anything about sports, please come down and chat with me. I'm usually around the Printz office around 11 M and W mornings. If not, talk to Hess. He'll call me. Ok. New business. Sports. Everyone should try their hardest to go out and support their Eagles this week. The basketball team has their final two home games this week and everyone should check them out. As of today, the baseball team is 7-0 and rising. Tomorrow's match with Troy should be a good rematch for the embarassment we faced in the NCAA regionals last year. It's at Troy, so should be a tough match. The team will have a weekday match at SE Louisiana and then will return home for a three day weekend series with ULL. That's Louisiana-Lafayette. Should be good. If all goes according to my evil plan, we will be 12-0 after next Sunday. Perfect. We will make the Super Regionals this year. Mark my words. By the way, if anybody reads this, please comment. I like to think that my mindless babblings mean something to the world out there. Until then, Go Eagles!

Yesterday was among the most fruitful days of my entire life.

Days like yesterday come around rarely. In a single day, all the competing futures you've seen spreading out ahead of you condense into one. How can so many parts of my life converge? How can so many decisions and paths cross at once?

I started the day off by interviewing the evolutionary psychologist and former Harvard professor David Buss. Before I changed my major to journalism, I was a psychology major, and my plan was to eventually go to the University of Texas at Austin to study evolutionary psychology under Dr. Buss. But, at some point, I saw the 12 years of school looming ahead, and my successes so far in writing overwhelmed me and yanked out of that path.

But, I attribute my interest in coming to college in the first place to reading one of David Buss' books, "The Evolution of Desire." My wife even bought for me a David Buss' textbook from UT for Christmas one year. So, I was insanely excited to get the chance to meet with him. I took a class in educational psychology over the summer and saw a poster in the building promising Buss would soon be a forum speaker at USM. So, I made the necessary phone calls to set up the interview as part of a story for the Printz.

We spoke for over an hour. The interview eventually became a conversation, and though he wanted to continue talking over coffee, one of the other professors snatched him away.

The interview was recorded, and I'll write a news story soon.

After this, I called three history professors to enlist their help with an article I am writing for Mental_Floss and headed to the library where I got my hands on the budget books.

The budget books at USM are the public records detailing every employee's salary and where all the money flows withing the institution. I'm returning on Monday to record just about everything into my laptop and then put all the information online at studentprintz.com for public viewing.

Then one of the aforementioned professors called me, and I headed over to the LAB to meet with him. While there, I met with the other professors as well and jotted down ideas.

I then ate lunch with my wife at the Power House and proceeded to the lecture by David Buss in the Thad Cochran Center at USM. I video recorded the entire speech and will host it on studentprintz.com via youtube.com soon.

Finally, I took a few photos and spoke with Buss again, introducing him to Mandy. He gave me a signed copy of his textbook and I headed home.

I compiled all my info for the Mental_Floss article and sent it to the editor.

Then, after writing a new song in Fruity Loops, I grabbed some Shiner and played Warioware on the Wii with my Mandy, Burt and Lynda. Then, some late-night Sonic and sleeping in.
