No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

Mandatory Virginia Tech Post

I have an unusual observation to share about this Virginia Tech shooting. Maybe it’s nothing, but I think there may be something worth talking about.

What strikes me as odd about this particular tragedy, as opposed to others like it, is that it happened at a college. This takes a whole different level of sicko. Do you see what I’m getting at?

Once you’re in college, you should begin feeling like the master of your own destiny. After skipping a class or two, you should start to realize that you’re not in high school anymore. Nobody is watching over you and you have a lot more freedom, choices, and responsibility. You should realize, deep into your first semester, that you’re an adult now and you are your own boss.

To have that level of pent-up rage at any stage of your life is unfathomable. But, what are you doing wrong if you get to college and still can’t shed your teen angst? There are no excuses for this. I’ll be waiting to see if anyone tries to come up with some.
