It's got to be said that one of my favorite writers of the past couple of years is Rob Santello. I constantly go on the Bouncing Souls website, just hoping that he might have updated.

It's funny, because a lot of people like reading people who think the way that they think. And in some respects, I believe that this is true about why I read Rob Santello. I don't know the man, and I never will, but you can tell a certain amount about someone from what they write, especially if they are writing about their own life. And I think that at least somewhat, I think some of the same things he writes about.

But the main reason I like reading the stuff he writes is because of what he thinks that I don't; it often causes me to think about things. I'll delve into his latest and all of a sudden I feel like I'm seeing things I've never seen before and thinking things that never entered my mind. I realize how cheesy and cliche that sounds, but that's the honest truth.

Wow, I just read what I wrote and I'm getting into one of those, "Hey, I wanna sound all smart and use all of the big words that I know" moods.

I suck sometimes.

So be it.
