One Percent

One government policy I feel is unfair is how the budget is determined and what it is spent on. Much of our budget is improperly spent, which drives peoples taxes up and cause us to pay for things that don't necessarily help us ourselves. I don't necessarily mean that these programs should be gotten rid of entirely, but some of the budget should be taken away from these programs. Taxes are a problem for people, especially for the lower to mid class, which can make life difficult for some. This is why overspending on a huge budget is an unfair policy of the government.

Utility Exercise

The Dirt is an autobiography film that tells the story of the famous rock band Motley Crue. Since this movie is an autobiography it has to meet some criteria to be a great bio about the famous band. One of the criteria of a bio flick is how accurately the movie tells the story of the band and their timeline of events. This film meets this criteria very well because of the detail they give in the movie. They go into very fine detail with events such as Vince Neil's car crash, Nikki Sixx's overdose, and even how Tommy Lee felt about Nikki at Tommy's wedding.

Next Right Moves

So far I have watched the movie multiple times and have been looking at many of the "criteria" for The Dirt. The movie is an autobiography of the band Motley Crue and depicts many of the outlandish, foolish acts that they have done while they were one of the greatest rock bands of the decade. Since this movie is an autobiography of Motley Crue, I have to use the things that make the movie an autobiography to determine if it is a good movie or not. One of the criteria is accuracy of the story of Motley Crue. I must find out if the movie lines up with the actions of the band and gives all the major details. Next, I want to see if there are opinions from the members of the band in the movie, as I believe this helps make an autobiography.

Scenes from a Milesburg Restaurant

A few weeks ago I made a trip to a town over the mountain called State College. I sat down to eat a restaurant called CC Peppers. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves cheesesteaks. Cheesesteaks are CC Peppers specialty, and I can say with confidence that they have the best cheesesteaks that I have had in that town. CC Peppers is mainly a sub shop but I also believe that they have salads and some desserts. I would also recommend that you ask for Old Bay seasoning on your fries, because they go so well with the fries that they serve. The atmosphere of the restaurant is also very nice and has a bit of an older feel to it with some pop culture decorations and posters of the Penn State sports teams.

Shopping

About a week ago I bought a pair of American Eagle's jogger shorts. Anybody who wants to be super comfortable but it's too hot to wear sweatpants, I would highly recommend buying a pair of jogger shorts. They are so comfortable because of the fleece that lines the inside of the shorts. They almost feel like you have nothing on. I also really like the design choice to install zippers on the pockets. this is so when you have many things in your pockets they will not fall out of your shorts, like they do with regular mesh shorts. along with comfortability and practicality, the shorts are very adjustable. They put string inside the waistband so if the shorts are a touch big you can tighten them, but at the same time the waistband stretches if they are a little small. I would definitely tell people to buy these shorts, I love to wear them all the time.

Showbiz Kids

I believe that everyone should go out and watch the movie Step Brothers. Step Brothers is a comedy movie, staring Will Ferrell and John C. Riley, Which involves two forty year old men who live at home with their parents who end up meeting because their parents get married and they have to live together as step brothers. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes to laugh, because this movie will have you rolling on the floor laughing. I really give a lot of credit to the lead actors in this movie because they played their characters so well and really made the movie feel authentic. The writers also did a very good job as they always have you on your toes and give the main characters very childish qualities which make the movie very funny. I have watched this movie at least 10 times and I still laugh at all the witty lines and can almost quote every line.
