Look-A-Like: Daniel/Hervey

It's been a while since I've done a Look-A-Like. I really lacked inspiration. Luckily this weekend a certain event sparked my motivation to post the next comparison. My friends and I saw Chase Daniel at a bar Saturday night. This sounds so high school-ish... I guess they kinda dared me to go hug him, so I did. He's pretty short, but his muscles are huge. So, seeing him has inspired me to do his look-a-like.

Here we go...

On the Right: Jason Hervey, Actor (The Wonder Years)

I felt the need to use two sets of pictures. There just weren't many pictures out there to choose from so finding a good pair was difficult.

Enjoy.

NCAARP

Sure, everyone's heard of the NCAA Tournament, but in St. Louis there's something far better... the NCAARP. I honestly don't know what it stands for, but trust me it's awesome. Every year K-HITS 96.3 pits classic rock bands/artists against each other in a tourney-style bracket. I filled out a bracket for the first time this year. I am 90% confident in it. So far I have all the points possible... 3 out of 3. The Beatles, Eric Clapton, and The Who all won today. The most heated battle of the day? Cream vs. Clapton. He just can't lose.

My all-important Final Four includes Led Zeppelin, Tom Petty, The Beatles, and Eric Clapton. The latter two end up duking it out in the Championship with Clapton coming out on top. He's lost in the Championship the past two years, including to The Beatles last year, so he's due. I'm pretty worried about my Zeppelin pick. St. Louis isn't huge on the band. I knew this while making my picks, but for some reason decided to pick Zeppelin over Pink Floyd, the 2006 Champion.

If you want to see all my picks just click here. I'll try to keep updating my blog with my leader board status.

Meme?

It's been a while since I've rambled on here, so let's get the ball rolling with an easy post.

A fellow Ozarker tagged me with a meme... I'm not quite sure what this means, but luckily it came with instructions. I have to grab the book nearest to me, go to page 123 and type the fifth, sixth, and seventh sentences on that page. As it turns out, the nearest book is a Human Sexuality book from a class I took in college. If the book is anything like the class, it could be very interesting or very boring.

"It is stored in the axon terminals there, and is released into the bloodstream when a barrage of nerve impulses comes down those same axons. In other words, these neuroendocrine cells both manufacture the hormone and (by means of their neuronal activity) control its release. Oxytocin is present in the blood at low levels most of the time, but it reaches much higher levels under three circumstances: orgasm, childbirth, and breastfeeding."

That was pretty boring.
