My Public Speaking class ended on Friday. I sent my teacher an email on Sunday to say how much I liked her class and her. She sent me a reply this morning it said:
Thanks Jeffrey, and you are definitely one of my favorites. Weird is good as we both know.

That was nice. The weird comment is in reference to all the times in class I stated I was weird, haha.
The new season of the show 30 days started tonight. I am really starting to like this show a lot. I think it is a very important show. I know that sounds dumb, but it is a fun show that is funny at times but it can also be deep. Last week I watched an episode where a guy who is a computer programmer who lost his job to outsourcing to India. He went to India for thirty days to work there to see why all the jobs are being sent there. It is really interesting seeing how all the people in India think about outsourcing. After that I watched an episode where a Christian guy from the Mid-West who believes that homosexuality is immoral was sent to live with a gay man in the Castro district of San Francisco, which is literally the gayest place on earth. Tonight is the season premiere and show creator Morgan Spurlock is working as a coal miner for 30 days. It is sad how there are so many different ways for these guys to die underground. Their wives freak out if their they are only a couple minutes late. The percentage of coal miner who get black lung is sad, almost all of them get some degree of it. The guy Morgan Spurlock was staying with was tested for Black Lung seven years ago and was negative. He claimed he was still healthy. Morgan Spurlock challenged him to get another test with him at the end of the month. They both got tested. Morgan Spurlock was negative, he had no signs of Black Lung, probably because he was only in the mines for 30 days. The other guy wasn't as lucky. He wasn't as healthy as he claimed. He had small particles of dust in each lung, which means he is in the starting of Black Lung. It was sad.
