I want my hour back.

Today I traveled down to the suburbs for a grill out with some friends. Again, I was supposed to be studying all day, but it was just so nice and sunny out. When I got the call, I gave in faster than your mom on prom night. Anyway, after we were all done eating "GOURMET VENISON BURGERS" we sat around and watched David Blaine's breath-holding special. I just gotta say that ABC owes me one hour of federally funded student loans. What possessed the guy to sit in water for a week is beyond me, and the drama building up to his attempt at setting a record for holding his breath was beyond absurd. I normally love Blaine though, especially when he levitates above the ground- it is seriously freaky. But these new stunts like starving for 44 days or sitting in ice are only enjoyable for Blaine. Who gives a damn how long he can float in water? However, if you did happen to watch it, wasn't it kind of eerie to see him start to swallow water and pass out at seven minutes?

there is no way he levitates off the ground, i hate when he does that - but these mental and physical tests I think are pretty coo. He lasted 7 min's! thats crazy...although the show didn't have to be a 2-hr special but eh, more power to him if he's willing to see how far he can push himself physically and mentally! btw - he's monotone

I thought he was going to die. That would have really boosted ratings!

i think it's because of the two packs you smoke a day.

You're right. I should quit with the birth/cigarette control patch.
