My name is Dean Santarinala, and I am a 20-something living in the Chicagoland area trying to find my place in the Universe. I have always enjoyed art and drawing, and along the way I picked up a camera and fell in love with photography.
(Photo courtesy of AP Photo/Jon Swart) No photos from me today, but I felt like talking sports after watching the Cubbies lose to the Brewers. Today is the 25th anniversary of Lee Elia’s on air tirade. I find it really funny, so I embedded it below for the enjoyment of your virgin ears [definitely NSFW].

Here’s a wtf moment. This girl was getting carted around by her boyfriend inside of a stolen Walgreens shopping cart and was caught by one of Illinois’ Finest law enforcement agency, all during a Gay Hate Crime “Hug-In” protest. I wish the guy in white wasn’t in my frame, but oh well.
James sits in the Union while deciding what to do after we missed BJ Novak’s comedy show.
I heard the show was “meh” anyway, he was supposedly an hour or so late. Oh, BJ. *giggles*
A squirrel got into the house and a few of my housemates got with a BB gun.
Ironically, tonight I get to write a paper analyzing an Animal Rights activist’s argument against Speciesism for my philosophy class. Myself, I am admittedly a speciesist. I think that it’s immoral kill animals with wanton disregard (extreme speciesism), but I’m not sure that I can wrap my head around the theory that non-human animals and humans have equal rights in certain respects.
PS. Yes, these guys are truly hicks. Mike (on the right) is especially weird.
