About Me
- Name: John M. Harrell
- Location: Eugene, Oregon, United States
I'm a student at the University of Oregon and interested in too many things to pick a major. I play viola and dabble in video games and electronics in general. People who know me consider me a friend, or free technical support, or both.
Quote of the Week
-
"Jesus was the only One that ever raised the dead...and He shouldn't have done it. He thrown everything off balance. If He did what He said,
then it's nothing for you to do but throw away everything and follow Him, and if He didn't, then it's nothing
for you to do but enjoy the few minutes you got left the best way you can—by killing somebody or burning down his house or
doing some other meanness to him."

Why do people take politicians' appearances on that show seriously? If he had said those things on the national news or in a debate, that would be a completely different story. Those morning shows are too funny; they dramatize EVERYTHING for ratings.
Such is life.
