Hi my name is Megan, I am 22 and I just moved here with my husband to San Jose CA from Plymouth NH. This is my 1st blog. It's pretty quiet back home but it is a whole new world out here. I was on the road for 1 week being exposed to many different types of media. We drove cross country and camped out here and there. We stayed in Salt Lake City at the KOA campground and in the morning they gave us a flyer for a discount at Denny's. We ended up stopping and eating there thanks to the flyer. During the trip I listened to the radio, caught up on some music, surfed the net, followed signs for tourist attractions, and used my cell phone.... the point is that even though I was on the road, sometimes out in the middle of no where, I was still consumed by the media. I will not pretend that I don't like the media. I love tv, music, the internet, and recently I have been watching a lot of news and getting more involved in the present issues of our world. Did anyone here about the Pascua Lama project involving 2 glaciers in Chile? Here is the link... http://www.snopes.com/politics/business/pascualama.asp. This is a true current event so check it out, it basically comes down to the water being permanently contaminated and unfit for consumption... ever :( I ended up joining the list to support the protest :) Anyway I love it here, the warm weather is beautiful, and there is so much to do. I miss Dunkin Donuts though…
Last night I was watching UFO videos on google video, I think that it is ignorant for people to think that we are the only ones in the universe. There has to be others out there, and if there are why are they avoiding us? Just a thought... the video was about compiled videos that people posted on the net and some of the footage was mind blowing but then there were others that were totally fake. Of course I have always been a believer but I don't take it to a level of obsession like some other people do. There are skeptics that think that every UFO sighting has an explanation, is a hoax, or is part of a government conspiracy. I am not saying that they are wrong but its a shame how some people can be selfish enough to think that it is all about us. No one knows, or do they? In the video, NASA claimed that they have seen things out in space that can not be accounted for, like when Apollo 11 was flying around out in space they saw something that was traveling near them, and the only other space craft that was out there at that time was very far away. So there definitely was something out there but NASA never released that information to the Press for fear of it hindering them. This is just one of many examples, so you have to wonder what else does the government hide from us?
