Insights From A Young American - 7/17/09 - End Of The Universe

According to one comedian, the end of the universe is in Houston, TX, which is where for the first time he saw a Starbucks across the street from a Starbucks. Now, I do agree that that is the closest sign to the of the universe, but I saw something close yesterday. I was with my aunt when we realized that there was a nail in the tire. The only place open at 9 pm was, get this, a 24-hour Mexican tire shop in Chinatown. A Mexican tire shop in Chinatown. I could not believe it. While I was waiting for the tire to be patched up, all I could think was, "Dear God, not tonight, I have a lot more to live for. Do not end the world tonight." Even when getting into the car, I kept thinking, "There's still time." Thankfully, the end did not come, but it is getting closer.
