New Recipies

So I've been working a lot lately. Nothing too exciting. Well there is, but I've talked about it so many times I don't feel like retelling my story again. If you really would like to know you can e-mail me or try to catch me online, which seems to be equally difficult lately. I'm thinking about adding these to my martery or mixology. Thoughts?

Yes, I AM Alive...

So we just got the internet installed in our apartment today. I'm pretty sure the ol blog will be getting some more atttention again. My dad sent me this recently and I found it interesting, so I thought this would be the perfect place to share:

States Ranked: Smartest to Dumbest The smartest state in the union for the second consecutive year is Massachusetts. The dumbest, for the third year in a row, is New Mexico. These are the findings of the Education State Rankings, a survey by Morgan Quitno Press of hundreds of public school systems in all 50 states. States were graded on a variety of factors based on how they compare to the national average. These included such positive attributes as per-pupil expenditures, public high school graduation rates, average class size, student reading and math proficiency, and pupil-teacher ratios. States received negative points for high drop-out rates and physical violence. How does YOUR state rank? 1. Massachusetts 2. Connecticut 3. Vermont 4. New Jersey 5. Wisconsin 6. New York 7. Minnesota 8. Iowa 9. Pennsylvania 10. Montana 11. Maine 12. Virginia 13. Nebraska 14. New Hampshire 15. Kansas 16. Wyoming 17. Indiana 18. Maryland 19. North Dakota 20. Ohio 21. Colorado 22.

Way to go Wisconsin! Not bad. Nonetheless I'm still glad to have a break from school. Work has been...well...work, but at least they can't give me homework. It's been really rainy here the past week, which is sort of depressing, but the week prior was gorgeous. I went home for a few days and laid out on the lake and did some wakeboarding. It was great.

Hope everyone's summer is going well!
