On Loan To One Another (GLGS) (Fortitudine Vincimus)

Below you will find an article by the badass known as Dennis Peacocke. I'm not going to give you all of the info on him other than the fact that I respect this man and if you wanna learn more about him and what he does click here.

Start off by reading what he has to say and then continue on to my follow up. This is like a puzzle with only two pieces, so I hope ya'll can put it together, but for the sake of this post both pieces are of equal importance. #yinyang

115 Days Abroad: With thanks to Mr. Steinbeck

115 Days Abroad: With thanks to Mr. Steinbeck: "I have always lived violently, drunk hugely, eaten too much or not at all, slept around the clock or missed two nights of sleeping, worked too hard and too long in glory, or slobbed for a time in utter laziness. I've lifted, pulled, chopped, climbed, made love with joy and taken my hangovers as a consequence, not as a punishment."
- John Steinbeck Travels With Charlie

In an attempt to maintain some order...

I am now going to put miscellaneousness in a new location. Effective immediately 'Jared Brannon Killin It In Rome' will be dedicated to Roman junk and 'General JaredKeith' will contain the miscellaneousness such as whatever isn't directly related to my time abroad. #newfoundmusic #unromanjunk

When In Rome...

I'm not a huge fan of cliche sayings like 'if the boot fits,' 'all is fair in love and war,' or 'Lil Wayne is the best rapper alive;' and I especially hate the saying 'when in Rome.' But, for this post, I'm going to make a list of a few 'when in Rome' for sures....

In a nut shell (Things I miss)

First off... John and I met a New Zealand girl last night who is "mad type" and knows who Brooke Fraser is. For those of you that don't know who Brooke Fraser is watch/listen to this video. She's gorgeous with her brown eyes and brown hair and her voice is Dolce&Gbbana.... also she can play the guitar #yeashebad......

Enjoyment for the folk back home

I've never listened to Sufjan Stevens but I hear he's a swell fellah. So while checking out my favorite rappers blog I came across this mixtape that mc DJ aka Childish Gambino aka Donald Glover put together. He turned this crack rock into a mountain #dailylilwaynereference. Check out this song Chitown it's swag and then go download it by clicking on this text that is a different color than the rest.
