Wisconsin: Xmas 08 style

Wisconsin

I'm sitting in Wisconsin at this moment in time there is a winter wonderland outside, oh it's Christmas by the way. Merry Christmas. I'm originally from a place called "GREENDALE" now I live in LA. There is much to love about the midwest, but I think like wine it is an acquired taste. People are great, very friendly, they carry old school traditions, and most offer the helping hand. The negative side of Wisconsin: The massive amounts of drinking, the immediate fighting nature at bars, the segregation (believe it or not) and the narrow mindedness (of some). I have some of my greatest here so I'm not knocking things, but damn people can be extremely rude. How are some so helpful yet others are not? Is this how every place is? A friend once made a comment to me about Ohio and said "Oh there's good people everywhere" I truly believe that. And in Wisconsin's case, there are plenty of good people. My ramble and the point I am getting to here is I think the Mid(ish) area of Wisconsin is on the brink of either going one way or another, it is 2008(9) and people are not accepting various ways in life, life changes and I think now more than ever it is clear. Or maybe I am just 25 and nieve to the situation, one day I am going to be bitter and I am going to hate the change that is around me, I'll just keep it old school. Ahhh, I'm a walking contradiction. ANYWAY.... What is better than movies? I am willing to have the debate that movies are the coolest thing around town. Any town that is. There are a few things that could pop up and I could see them being a valid argument. Sex, Sports.... well that's pretty much it. And here is the difference, Sports are amazing but not always guaranteed to be there, also you many times need another person to play sports with. Sex you definitely need another person to play with. Sex is great, but it's not the variation of movies. If you can tell me you can have sex with more people in a day than movies you can see....maybe. I love movies, that have the ability to be watched at anytime, they have people that common day society admires, you make your own judgments, opinions, generate feelings, imitate life, and contribute to ideas. For me personally they are the perfect escape. And since it is my personal escape... come on now.
