Sounding Off
This is just a personal blog where I occasionally review stuff, since apparently I like writing. Don't expect my reviews to be amazing, but personally, I feel they're pretty good! The rating system is different between mediums. Video games I give a letter grade, Movies and TV shows I give star grades. Note that a fraction after a number of stars means that many stars plus that fraction of another star. I.e. *** 3/4 would be three full stars and three quarters of another star. Hope you guys like the stuff!

Sounding Off: Shot In The Eye? No Big Deal!

Alright, we all know gun control is a topic of big debate nowadays. I'm not here to discuss my thoughts on gun control. That might happen one day in the future, when I have more time.
Nah, today, I just want to give a story some publicity, cause personally, I think it's admirable, insane, and hilarious at the same time.
So, if most of us got shot in the eye, we'd be out for a while, my assumption. Well meet this man, Tom Dotterer:
He's a 77 year old man who is just a regular shop owner. On Monday, this man got shot in the eye during a robbery. The image above you is him back at work within the space of ONE DAY. Admirable right? Here's where it gets really good.
Now, you might remember me sounding off on WWE's Royal Rumble a few entries ago. So yeah, I'm a WWE fan. And the result of the Rock/Punk match was Rock becoming the new WWE champion, ending the 400+ day reign of Punk.
Well, Mr Dotterer was interviewed about his experience on Monday, and asked his thoughts. Apparently, getting shot wasn't that big of a deal. Nope, instead, and this is what he said:
"That's the worst thing that happened to me all week, the Rock beat Punk. Did you know that?"
Holy hell, this man has got my respect. He get's shot in the face, and that's not the worst thing that's happened to him! Goes to show you how much of a Punk fan this man is. And Punk even went to publicly thank Dotterer for his comment via Twitter. Now how awesome is that?
It's a simple story, but I found it touching and cute. Hope you get better Mr Dotterer, my fellow CM Punk fan!
