Andy B.So many blogs nowadays concentrate solely on the writer, taking readers along egocentric journeys into the soul of vain individuals. I feel this is not just wrong, but criminally wrong. Here, by blogging, we have the opportunity, perhaps for the first time in human history, to expose to the world not just our own ambitions and fears, our desires and achievements, but also the darker parts of our world.

In this spirit, I want to expose the darkest part of my personal world: Andy B.

Now, I know I could just take the easy path here. In all honesty, I could probably make a lot of money (which will in turn help Andy with his many physical problems) simply by putting a little "Donate" button next to Andy's picture.

Or I could talk about the hotness rating he received from members of Rate My Professors.

But no! Instead, I will concentrate on the positive. Andy has many redeeming qualities, and as a member of the human race I have decided to take it upon myself to find them. But I have known Andy for about five years now, and still... sometimes I feel like a Shackleton searching for a path, or an astronaut's dropped toolbox, aimlessly orbiting the earth.

But I'm optimistic. I will find the positive in Andy. I will turn this dark part of my world into light.

And the tragedy of it all, is that you wouldn't have known any of that if only Andy refrained from making not one, but several "Blogging is stupid" jokes on Sunday. Well, Andy, you're on the internets, Bitch.
