Satisfaction
Enjoy the rest of the summer, you can try to top that picture, but I'm pretty sure that kid is possibly having the best time ever. That, right there; is the definition of confidence caught on film.
Perfect hair + Ice cream + No pants = all smiles.

F. Scott Fitzgerald
I might give him a second chance, I read "The Great Gatsby"....... in 9th grade. I didn't like it, we even watched the movie for it. I personally have a man crush on Robert Redford too and I didn't like it. My brother Craig came out and visited for a couple of weeks and he left me a collection of F Scott Fitzgerald short stories to read, mostly I just wanted to read "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," that movie looks awesome, but I have been just reading some of his short stories, and I like them, especially "Bernice bobs her hair." That is my favorite one so far, I enjoyed Benjamin Button, but I think it's super depressing, very interesting though.
I know I always hassle James and Valerie about how bad "The Great Gatsby" is, mostly because if you have ever met me, that's kind of my thing. Find something you like and then pretend that you are gay for liking it, even though 90% of the time I enjoy it as well. I bet if I read that book again I would probably really enjoy it, but I am just stubborn enough not too read it again just so I can disagree with people.
Life of Pi
I just finished reading, "The Life of Pi," which is an awesome book! It's a story about a man who is stranded on a life raft for I think it was 227 days, with a freaking Bengal Tiger. Pi, the main character is from India and is traditionally Hindu but explores Christianity and Muslim, he doesn't understand why he has to choose only one. He talks about this and his life on the raft, about his struggles to survive his loss of humanity and respect for nature. I don't want to spoil the book at all, so I am going to keep it pretty vague, but seriously I read this book in a couple of day, and I really reccommend it.
Also the pictures are pitches by Tomer Hanuka, for an illustrated version of the book, also that guy is awesome.
