Oh the good old days!

There are still mullets in the wild!

Hey guys,

So I haven’t posted in a while but I wanted to give you an update on some things I hope to be writing about soon. During my trip to Europe I can to a lot of conclusions about the differences between life in Europe and life in the States. There are lots of similarities but even more differences. Some of those differences are just merely perception but some are very glaring and directly affect quality of life. Below are the 3 subjects I’m going to hit on…

“Driving” – Courtesy, speed, and driving on the wrong side of the street?
“Working to Death” – How do Americans view the work week and how do Europeans view it?
“Socialism” – Who takes care of whom?

Hopefully through these 3 essays you guys will all get a glimpse of life and stop to take time and examine your own life in the process.

Ok my last picture post… this one is from Paris.

Hey all. I’m making this post from my cell phone so its going to be short. We are in Rome right now and its beautiful! I do not have internet access at this point so there won’t be many pics until we get back to london. I will send a special pic or two from my phone just to keep you up dated. Peace!
