"I agree with Patrick, this subject is something I wouldn't have thought of. I think if the Life Expetancy rate went down, it could cause a mild panic, and either encourage citizens to start living a healthier lifestyle, or the opposite, people…"

Patrick Witt commented on Matt Krinke's blog post What If..."This is actually an interesting subject. I can't say there's one single variable that affects the life expectancy rate; it could be obesity, malnutrition, disease, or pollution. There's tons of possibilities. One relative subject is…"
haena y. commented on Matt Krinke's blog post What If..."If life expectancy was shorter, I think people would do what they did in the earlier decades. before our present time when life expectancy was short, young teens were looked upon as adults and teens got married. A shortness in life expectancy would…"
Allison Dunnington commented on Matt Krinke's blog post What If..."Rachel - Life expectancy in America is falling because obesity and lack of healthy habits take a toll on your body."
Rachel Baum commented on Matt Krinke's blog post What If..."I actually heard the other day that the life expetancy was falling in America now. I don't remember why, but I know that made me sad because we have so many advances in technology and medicine and such that you think it would be getting older,…"
Matt Krinke commented on Bridget DeFilippo's blog post Parents+College Talk= Nothing but Stress"My parents use far too much stress for everything. This household is pretty much built on stress. The worst thing is when parents say they've given up. I mean, if they've given up on me who's going to be there for me?"
Matt Krinke commented on Rachel Baum's blog post Do we really know what we're doing?"Mari and Kevin are right. The alternative treatments pros greatly outweigh the cons we face now."
Matt Krinke replied to Gary Anderson's discussion ART DECO & MODERN ARCHITECTURE"I think Art Deco is good because of the sheer scale of the buildings along with the efficiency in line and subtle variation of lines used. Art Deco is big and mighty."

Jimi Hendrix at Woodstock: "The Star-Spangled Banner" 1969
"I really love the message he conveys playing this song. The way it flows out of him shows what was really going on in that time period. The way he plays it, its like you're really there on stage with him, and though it might be a contradiction,…"
Matt Krinke replied to Gary Anderson's discussion Randall Jarrell: “The Death of the Ball Turret Gunner”"I don't think you know fear until you are actually in a situation like this. They way the poem flows, you don't realize he's dead until the final line. It clicks in your head right after and makes the image even more vivid in your…"
Matt Krinke commented on Taha Madani's blog post Today's Hip-Hop/Rap"I don't listen to mainstream rap very often, but Danger Mouse, Flying Lotus, and Major Lazer are using the art of rap the way it should be used. It can be more than just a rhyme set to a beat, it can be emotional and driven from the heart when…"
Matt Krinke commented on Tara Koepke's blog post Chatroulette= creeper central?"I have never ventured onto the lands of Chatroulette and don't plan to any time soon. too much gamble for my tastes, and John's right, no one is forcing you to use it"
Anna Badovinac commented on Matt Krinke's blog post What If..."I think about this all the time. I think I have even made some comments in class that aren't taken too well. I think a major part of the problems in the world today are because of the life expectancy of humans today. We are over populated and…"
Taha Madani commented on Matt Krinke's blog post What If..."I guess it would also mean that doctors aren't doin their job, or medicine isn't very effective. And if the life expectancy rate kept dropping through out the years, I think the human race would probably become extinct."
Tom Meyer commented on Matt Krinke's blog post What If..."I agree with Mike. We have our whole lives ahead of us and I hope death is not in the near future for any of us. If our life expectancy was plummeting, that would suck. I wouldn't even know where to begin for getting it back up..."
micheal kiely commented on Matt Krinke's blog post What If..."i really dont want to think about death at all. It would suck alot if that would be happening!"

We all know what a Life Expectancy Rate is, but if you don't, there's a link at the bottom. The Life Expectancy Rate is constantly increasing with generations. The person who will live to be 150 my already have been born. But, what if the tables were turned? What if the Life Expectancy Rate was on a down-slope instead? How would history have been different?Gandhi living to be able to live to the ripe old age of 200, Einstein going on to tweak his Theory of Relativity, and numerous other things…See More

Alison Hagan commented on Matt Krinke's blog post Swine Flu? Maybe When Hell Freezes Over."This is not the first outbreak of swine flu. The first time it reared its head the vaccine for it did more harm than good. The preservatives in the vaccine caused some perfectly healthy people to use the use of their legs for life.

Swine Flu? Maybe When Hell Freezes Over.
I was sitting at home sick today and I was trying to think of a blog post. As I ate a bowl of delicious Froot Loops, it came to me. I'm not sick with Swine Flu, but is anybody anymore? It seems to have gone by the way side except for the sparse amount of commercials with prevention methods. Those commercials make it sound like the Ebola Virus or something, but is it really so serious?
Swine Flu is definitely a scary thing, I won't lie,… Continue

What's up fellow ningers?! :D Happy New Year! Somehow I ended up on the Ning this morning. Don't know if Mr.Anderson and Mr.McCusker remember our American Studies class from 09-10. Great times. It doesn't seem like this Ning has continued on over the years. What happened?See More

Adam Babcock left a comment for Bridget Babcock"There are many options out there, but to standardize is to tell a lot of teachers to learn something new or unfamiliar... it's a tricky subject. That's why I'd love to start my own school, powered by Edmodo, Ning, etc :)"

I'm not usually someone who writes a lot , not publicly anyway but I do love to express my self through art, usually visual art but most of the time the art I make is influenced by something . In this case it's a song a written by one of my favorite musicians as a response to the feeling of horror and disbelief as he watched the Twin Towers in New York go from icons to ruins on 9/11/01. The song is sad,…See More
