Joe Rogan and his "Floatation Tank"

Joe Rogan is a crazy dude. You know the guy from Fear Factor and most recently an announcer on one of those mixed martial arts cagefighting shows. Anways I'm saying this because of a Youtube video that my friend showed me yesterday. The video is called "Joe Rogan Flotation Tank" if you want to watch it yourself, but the video is about this huge freezer-looking like "flotation tank" that he has in his house. He uses the tank to achieve "psychodelic-like" experiences that are "better than any drug whatsoever". The tank is filled with water with eight hundred pounds of salt in it causing whoever is in it to float effortlessly. Joe says you "start to loose your feeling of boundaries" "You start thinking where is the water, where is your skin, the air". Joe tells all about his experiences with the flotation tank, many of them quite comical, check it out for yourself its pretty interesting!

AnnieMullz Clothing Co.

So one of my friends from highschool just started his own clothing company last year with a couple of his buddies. The company is called AnnieMullz and they design and manufacture t-shirts, hoodies, and other products. When he first started the company it was just his friend and him coming up with designs to put on t-shirts that they both thought were cool and stylish, now AnnieMullz clothing is being sold on their website and at some stores around the Boston area. The designs are pretty cool and if you wan't to take a look here is the website... http://anniemulz.bigcartel.com/ I just bought the 'Viva' t-shirt and I suggest that you buy something too!

Pats

So how about those Pats? What the hell is going on and where are the Patriots of old. Brady isn't looking good, the offensive and defensive line aren't looking the same and were getting beat because of stupid mistakes. In regards to media, its amazing how saturated the media is with sports and sports related stories. There are so many channels now that play sports, all the major network channels, tons of sports only type channels, and more on top of those. Everywhere you look you see sports, everyday you hear someone talking about a game, statistic, or highlight. Our country has become so obsessed with sports that advertisers will pay millions and millions of dollars for a single thirty second spot during a big game like the superbowl. Now I know that a lot of the money dosn't come from taxes or "the people" but my question to you is do you think that this is a good or bad thing, and do you think we should be spending all of this money on sports entertainment? Also what do you guys think about the new footbridge that they are putting in at Gilette?

Bridgewater Prison Escapee

Does anyone else not understand how they let this guy escape from the Bridgewater Prison? I mean from what I heard he was in there waiting to be convicted of an armed robbery and rape charge and they were keeping him in the minimum security part of the prison, and letting him participate in a work-leave program. How does this make any sense?! So then I heard that while he was out on work-leave he saw a commercial on t.v. saying that he had been convicted of those felony charges and fled the area. Hopefully by putting his face all over the t.v. and through other ways we will be able to get this guy caught. This shows us how media can hurt society, on one hand there was a freak accident/coincidence and a convicted fellon was able to eacape the long arm of the law, but on the other hand the media will probably, as it has shown in the past, get this guy recognized and caught. What do you guys think of the situation?
