I meant to go to bed... honest I did. But then I watched The Matrix, and some other movie with Burt Reynolds in it (Barry, what's it called?)... all of which was accentuated by an argument with an idiot down in Quad 3. I won't go in-depth into the specifics of the argument as these things tend to require both perspectives to not sound incredibly biased and one-sided. The gist of the debate is to whether or not the "good works" of non-Christians are in fact, good and if they are worthy of commendation. The REAL stumbling block in the argument came over the definition of good, whether by a Biblical perspective or by a common usage definition as well as the inisistence of my opponent in using NBA players as his examples. I'm sorry, but NBA players are good guys about as often as snow falls in Miami. I keep forgetting that half of the people at this school are idiots as it comes to debate and couldn't argue their way out of a cardboard box... note to self: don't argue with idiots (translated: most LU-ers).
Also, I've gotten my 5th or so offer this school-year to play chess and I'm thinking I may be past my addiction. Maybe I should sit down and play with Maria just to see... or maybe not. That's the last thing I need right now is to stop going to classes and stop sleeping to play more chess and read more chess books. Me and my intellectual addictions... why can't I just be a druggie or something? At least then the police try and keep those away from you.
