Fighting

Is fighting wrong? Everyone says that getting into fights and beating each other up won't solve anything, but today we proved that wrong. Two of my closest friends got into a huge argument and ended up wanting to fight. They decided to meet up somewhere to fight, and they did. It was just a one on one fist fight, nothing dangerous. After the fight they ended up being closer than they were before, if they would have just kept on talking it would have made everything worse. While they were talking they wanted to kill each other up, after the fight they just ended up hanging out together. I don't know if this is how the male mind works but I think that fighting makes things better, it's just like a stress reliever and it helps you calm down and think more about what you have done. I know that if they would have kept talking back to each other they would have ended up never talking or hanging out again. Fighting just made it so both of them would calm down and just take all that stress out. I don't know if fighting will always be the best thing, but it has worked a lot of times, specially this one. What do you think? Is it better to let out all that anger and fight or try to talk and clam down?

Biodiesel from Algae Oil

Scientist are starting to make Biodiesel from algea. Algae are an extremely important species. For one, they produce more oxygen than all the plants in the world, put together! For another, they form an important food source for many animals such as little shrimps and huge whales. With the recent research and interest into using algae for producing biodiesel, they have the potential to become even more important. Researchers have found that this fuel is very efficient and they have already started focusing on making products fueled by this "Oilgae". More information about this topic can be found in the Oilgae website.

The Wii

The Wii has not really been as successful as the Xbox 360 but right now I think it's catching up. This surprised me when my mom told me that she wanted to get a Wii for the WiiSports and WiiFit, I tough she was joking at first. The Wii is coming out with a lot of new interactive games, they have the sports game, the "fit" game, puzzle games, and even cooking games. I think that the Wii is going to be really successful if they keep on doing this. At the moment the Wii is targeting three different audiences, little kids, teens, and adults, while the xbox just targets teen and they keep on coming out with FPS's. Well my mom said she was going to get a Wii for us this weekend, I hope is true, I have not played a Wii in a while.

Iron Maiden

Today is the concert, one of my favorite bands, Iron Maiden. I was supposed to go but I had to end up selling my ticket becuase my parents and I got into a little argument and I ended up being "grounded" so I couldn't go. The concert is probably going to be awesome and I'm really mad that I got to miss on this one in a life time opportunity. I got the tickets a long time ago and ended up selling them for $60 when I bought them for $80... I guess it's not that bad since I got to keep the money. I still wanted to go to Iron Maiden really bad. Did any of you go?
