Welcome

Welcome to my Land of Pleasant Living (aka unemployment). My name is Matt Kiebus and I'm a recent graduate of Loyola College in MD. I'm now a proud owner a piece of paper declaring myself pretty smart in the field of Communications. Over the past three weeks since graduation I've been told by parents, uncles, neighbors, high school teachers, and sadly even friends that it's time for me to join this fabled 'real world', a place where all your miseries come true. 

Well this blog's sole purpose is to see how long someone can follow the American Dream of devoting all their time to their passions. In my case NY Mets, Matt Christopher children's sports novels, print newspapers especially the Star-Ledger and NY Times, sports sections, traveling (whether by car, train, bike, steamship, spaceship, hot air-balloon, or just walking), Rolling Stone, Arizona Wildcats, Harry Potter Books, a Tribe Called Quest, Spin, arguing for the sake of arguing, Seinfeld, Hall & Oates, writing in script, Most trilogies (Star Wars, Mighty Ducks, Indiana Jones, and the Godfather), pin collections, nostalgia, watches, outdoor basketball, sneakers, funny arrogance, Buffalo Bills, drinking (casually, you know just to get a buzz), Bruce Springsteen, mustaches, New Jersey and so much more that I can't remember.

If any of these interest you I hope you stop by every once in a while, if you truly enjoy your 9-5 job with excellent benefits this isn't for you.
