Football and Hockey

Hockey! I want to write about hockey for the last one. I think hockey is a pretty okay sport. I like football and hockey. Those are probably my two favorite sports. No wait, I’ve changed my mind. Football, gymnastics, and hockey. My friends would be amazed to hear me say I like hockey, but I do. However, I think that the fights in it are sometimes pretty made up. You know, hype the crowd type of deal. My roommate is in here and he’s writing emails, and every time he writes emails he makes this noise and this face like he’s doing something really important and difficult. I think he almost starts sweating.

Sony Laptop

I just got a new Sony laptop. It’s pretty good so far, but I’m sure things will go wrong in due time. Laptops are like that. It looks great though. It’s brown. I’ve never had a brown laptop before. It’s textured so it kind of feels like wood. The screen is great for watching movies. I kind of wish it had an actual button for turning the volume up and down, because I hate clicking the little icon and dragging it down. Takes too long. It has a pretty great display off and mute button though, which both come in handy.

Skydiving and Travel

I would probably go around doing ridiculous things, assuming I had all the money in the world. Or some money to spend. I want to go skydiving. I love to travel, but I always want to have a home to come home to. Actually I would probably get a job anyways, because I hear people can’t be happy without work. You need to feel productive to be happy. I doubt I could motivate myself to do anything that mattered if I didn’t really have to, and then where would I go all of the time. I suppose maybe I could get really good at swimming and swim the English Channel.

The Right Kind of Collar

YouTube Preview Image It’s important to choose the right collar for your dog. Very active dogs should wear a collar that can snap off if it gets snagged. For most dogs, a standard inch-thick fabric dog collars and leashes work well, sturdy and durable. Flea collars do help keep pests away. For training, shock/chock collars are often used. I personally object to them unless they are absolutely necessary, due to the stress they can cause the animal.
