12.19.08: i had someone call me yesterday at work: "hey, how are you doing today?" real cheery like. "i'm good, how can i help you?" i'm already skeptical. "we're just calling peope who are working today, may i have your name?" i think i say "huhmmmmm" for about five or six seconds before i decided to give her my name, and i follow ny name up with, "what is this regarding, exactly?" *click* well fine then. you're getting mad at me when you're the one who called me and all that you tell me is that you are calling working people today!?!?!? what did you expect. i almost wish that solicitors would call and in a real dull voice just say, "hey, i'm a solicitor, would you like to be soliciated?" because it's really hard to be mean to someone who's telling you the truth like that. you say a polite "no, thanks" you both hang up and everyone's fine. the thing that pisses me off about phone solicitors is that they act like your best friend, "hey buddy, long time no talk, friend." and you're all like, "who the f is this?" then they say, "oh, just calling to say hi ... want to buy a timeshare in ?" sigh |

12.08.08: heroes: ok, so i'll accept the fact that the haitian can turn his powers on and off, even though they have never even hinted at that, and as of tonight's episode he has to focus on the individual to stop their powers and there have been dozens of time when the haitian didn't know that heroes where around and their powers were stopped. ok, i'll look past that little, huge, oversight. tonight's episode was by far the best out of this season, sure as hell beat the crap out of any episode in season 2. that is mainly due to the fact that tonight's episode mainly revolved around Hiro and as i stated before, Hiro's plotlines have little, sometimes nothing to do with the rest of the cast. they are bringing him more into the story which means one of two things ... Hiro's plot is about to get as effed up as the rest which means the last solid character in the series is about to well go to shit. and i really don't want that to happen to Hiro. anyway. end heroes rant. i hate pro-football and i'll tell you why. it messes up my tivo. i tried to watch the new king of the hill a about a week ago and my tivo turned the channel and what do my wandering eyes gaze upon? the propane and propane accessories salesman and his family? nope, effing football. the game, i don't remember which one it was, ran over. because that's what america has taught us. football is the greatest thing ever when obviously it's not. i'll even go out on an odd limb for me and say that even batman is better than pro-football. perhaps, i'll have more on this later for now, i'm going to bed. cheers. |

november 18, 2008: heroes: first of all, according to the previews for next weeks episode, they all lose their powers. because another eclipse happens because the first one gave them their powers ... WTF!! the only reason that Claire, Nathan and Meredith survived the car crash that landed Claire in Noah's family was because they all had powers and that was 17 years ago. Not to mention the fact that solar eclipses don't happen within months of each other. i will say that the lastest episode was the best of the season so far. that last time i said that the season ended. so what i'm thinking is going to happen is that they are going to go on one of their ridiculous "next year, when we return because we think that by waiting four months between now and the next episode is a great idea and don't care about our veiwers wishes" things. i thought the episode was great up until the previews for next week. and i will say that it seems that each character or set of characters has their own writer. of all the horrible inconsistant writing that the series is undergoing, hiro's parts are always great. either the writer's think that hiro's great already or they think he isn't as popular as the rest so they don't f*ck up his storylines like they do with everyone else. either way; hiro rocks, everyone used to rock until the writers started making up shit up as you went along. i know i complain a lot but i actually really do like the show. it's great, i have to watch it. i'm addicted. and that's why i write these things that i do. they are failing. they aren't thinking. they just not thinking. on the bright side of things... this may take a few minutes to load |

number three and last post for the evening of october 28, 2008: as georgia has early voting, i took my lunch and went to my local county administration office and cast my ballot. as it is so easy to rig elections these days, it is hard to say whether my vote will actually be counted and/or be counted towards my specified candidate. that being said, i know my candidate, if elected, will provide this country with excellent leadership, lower gas prices, and a health care system that benefits everyone.  unfornuately, i couldn't actually vote for you JB, my pen wouldn't write on that computer screen after i hit the "write in" button, so i had to go with my second choice. forgive me, sir. |

more from the evening of october 28, 2008: Are you a swing voter? Let me help. Here is a simple way to determine who you should vote for: 1. Do you make more than 5 million dollars a year? YES! Good for you, Vote McCain. NO ... continue to the next question. 2. Do you make less than $250,000 a year? YES! Things will get better, Vote Obama. NO ... continue to the next question. 3. Do you wish to receive smnaller paychecks due to the taxation of your health benefits? YES! Sounds great! Vote McCain. NO, of course not. Vote Obama. If by chance you make between $250,000 and 5 million a year and don't have health coverage then flip a coin. There ya go, you are no longer a swing voter. |

the evening of october 28, 2008: So like I said, a few days: DISCLAIMER: This part discusses the use of time travel in the television show Heroes. If you have not caught up to at least the October 20th show, then please read cautiously as it may spoil something for you. Let’s discuss Heroes. Now most people watch TV and take it for whatever the writers say. There are some people, however, (I know at least one other person) who are watching Heroes’ use of the space/time continuum and are noticing some … issues. So I’ve compiled my thoughts and other time travel philosophies to try and make some sense out of Heroes and time travel in general. Let’s examine the future Peter’s meddling. (From now on I’m going to call Future Pete “FP”). In the timeline of the show, meaning the history of the world’s event according to FP, the world was drastically changed when Nathan (FP’s brother) decides to tell the world that people with super human abilities are amongst us all. So then everyone starts trying to investigate how they too can get powers when it comes out that some of the super-people’s abilities were manufactured. Which leads to a whole world of people with powers and then for some reason they start hunting people with powers because they figured, why not. So FP travels back in time to the press conference his brother holds, and before Nathan spills the beans to the world, FP shoots his brother. Now since Nathan doesn’t tell the world about super-abilities FP should have immediately disappeared. Here’s why: Now that Nathan didn’t notify the world of super-people then FP would never in the future need to decide to go back into the past to stop his brother, therefore negating his existence any further. So how is this possible and why do the writer’s want to destroy my beloved Heroes so much? Let’s apply the Back to the Future Philosophy to our Heroes conundrum. According to the BTTF Philosophy when FP went back in time and shot his brother he would have created an alternate existence, in essence another dimension, as Doc Brown explains in BTTF 2 when Older Biff takes the sports almanac back to his younger self to become a millionaire. So FP effectively ripped the space/time continuum and created a new present day whose future would be changed from there on. One could bring up the argument that Future Badass Hiro went back in time and by clever suggestion helped “the cheerleader” to be saved thus saving New York from its destruction. But we must remember that it was not Sylar who explodes but Peter, so such an argument would be null and void because the effect of Future Badass Hiro’s meddling didn’t actually changed anything, especially now that we know that Sylar could not have killed Claire, “the cheerleader,” anyway. So given that if an alternate dimension was created by FB then he would be allowed to stay in this new present day and he was the catalyst that caused the space/time rupture. But now there’s still a dilemma. FP decided to let Present Day Peter take over his duties in “fixing” things because he, FP, has “stepped on too many butterflies. We assume that FP goes back to his time, or what he thinks is his time. Since he created this alternate dimension when he goes to that future, yes, things have changed but that is not his original time now is it. It’s the future of his ruptured universe. This being said there are going to be two Peters in the future. The Peter that traveled back in time to shoot his brother and the Peter that was already there in the past when the division of dimension occurred. The now older Present Day Peter would not have gone back in time to shoot his brother and the Peter who did has “returned” to a better future but not in the same dimension that he originally came from. This opens up the possibility of pan-dimension travel, if you think about it. But I’m not going to go into that today. So the only way that Future Pete would not have disappeared after shooting his brother is if the writer’s of Heroes are following the BTTF Philosophy. So what did we learn today kids? I should have become a theoretical physicist. sigh. |

october 25, 2008: ok, so, i've been drinking whiskey for the first time in about a month so perhaps it's that whiskey or perhaps it's just a subconscious conscious notion that got me ... hmm ... whatever. i put up all the links. now, you have to keep in mind that not all the links work and the ones that do, the pages that are linked might not be complete or even be there. but right now, i don't care. so have fun trying to figure out what parts of my site work and don't. i mainly posting all this crap because i am a very competent web designer, not always a very competent speller, but very competent web designer. and i don't want people to think that i'm not. so in my head, logically, if i tell you that things are wrong on the site then that proves that i am, in fact, a very competent web designer. it's a win win situation really. i still get my genius web designer nod and you get to have fun by finding the links on my site that don't work. it's fun and genius at the same time. man, i'm awesome. p.s. sorry, although the recent my name is earl was indeed genius as all of them are. i have no quotes for you this week nothing really stood out, so, no post. |

october 3rd 2008: we are in the middle of "across the universe" and i can definitely see why it didn't do so well in the box office. but if you are beatles fan, and by that i mean by beatles fan is that you can hear ringo's drum intro halfway in the middle of "if i fell" without music, and know what i'm talking about. then you'll like it for the musical aspect of it. it was a good movie overall, just had some ... issues. the main plot is great but they add in all these tangents that had nothing to do with the plot. i think that director picked a bunch of songs and then created scenes around those songs and then formed them around the plot even if, like i said, they didn't fit with the plot. so, in conclusion, if you're a beatles fan, your golden. if you want to see a movie with a good plot and strong continuity ... then you're screwed. but i'll recommend it to most of my friends. |

But anyway, I’m going to Florida this weekend so there might be some pictures up from that adventure soon. |

9.23.08: I hope that everyone watched Heroes last night. I was drunk but I remember most of it. It was better than season two but there are still inconsistencies. It’ll just take time to see how they are going to play it out. Mainly the whole time travel thing. There are certain laws of logic in the field of time travel that can’t be broken and they are breaking them, or at least that’s what it seems like. Like I said, there is a possibility that they pull all this out right, but it’s not looking like it. After seven and a half nearly dread-worthy episodes last season they have to step it up. Season one was nearly flawless. I say nearly as there was one episode where my balls could have written a better script, but no offense to those who are actually getting paid thousands of dollars a week to write the show. And I’m not saying that they are doing a good job. Just that they might need to take a break from trying to shove out the next episode and just go back and look ever what they have done. Don’t you love these posts when I’m tired/lazy/drunk and I just stop in the middle of a mediocre thought. |

I am Bruce Wayne ... don't tell anyone me: oh, yeah, that's why i didn't want to invite you over last night, because you're delusional, forgot about that until now ph: after my parents were murdered, I went on a journey to master as many fighting styles that I could. I am still on that journey right now. Everyone thinks I'm dead, thanks to my butler, but I'm ok ... just don't tell anyone ... if one day, I'm not here anymore, and Bruce Wayne reamerges, you'll know me: i told him about you though. he told me to call you but i told him that you'd probably try and rape him so he asked me not to call you. ph: nah ... it was an impersonator me: he drove the bat-pod over... ph: um ... what is a Bat-pod? me: sigh...his motorcycle ph: um ... is it a kawasaki or honda or suzuki or something like that? me: no here i'll show you a picture:  except there was no cop car nor was he in his bat suit ph: hmm ... interesting ... I'll get my butler to look into it for me me: dude, it's not nice to call your mom that. i don't think that she'd appreciate that greho: Oh, the lady that you think is my mom? Oh, she's part of the act me: yeah, i've met her and she's pretty cool. and she's your mom. but it's cool, really, you can believe whatever you want to delustionally think ... i think you need to, maybe, not drink so much greho: one day, you'll know ... you'll know the truth ... but I want you to make a promise ... that you won't tell anyone my secret me: that you're delusional ... ? ok greho: I am going to change Gotham |

batman and harry potter; july 11, 2008: i tried to convince the greho that he should come over last night and watch batman begins. i figured since i bought him the movie ... oh well nevermind. i tried to tell him that there are a lot of similarities between batman and harry potter ... like these: 1. both lost their parents when they were really young. harry at the age of 1; batman, eight or something. 2. both fight evil. harry, lord voldemort; batman, the various threats in gotham city. 3. harry's hair is black; batman's suit ... IS BLACK!!! wait it gets better 4. professor mcgonagall's animagus form is a cat ... one of batman's enemy/lover's is CATWOMEN. 5. both have wise old mentors. harry, dumbledore; batman, alfred. 6. they've got sidekicks. harry, ron and hermione; batman, robin and batgirl. 7. motorcycles make dramatic appearances in both. 8. they both have pets. harry, hedwig; batman; ace the bat dog. and not exactly storyboard related: 9. warner bros. is handling both movie franchises. and 10. gray oldman, perhaps one of the greatest modern actors of our time ... is in BOTH!!! i'm sure there's more but these are the ones i can think of. if anyone can think of anymore let me know. |

july 7, 2008: ok so, a couple days late but regardless: now, i'm working on getting a video feed of the commercial but for now you'll have to accept my apologies and just read the quotes, "this fourth of july weekend, it's a new kind of celebration. abc family salutes america with our harry potter weekend. ..." and there's more but it doesn't matter. ok so, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA sorry, sorry. but let's look at that again... "let's salute america" SALUTE!!! AMERICA!!! with Harry Potter. now if you are not just peeing yourself with laughter you just might be a moron. just in case i'll explain... Harry Potter, i have to say is one of the greatest things ever (just ask the greho or my bookshelf) is BRITISH. it's like abc is saying "hey, england, to honor us kicking your ass 225 years ago we're going to give one of your most celebrated authors and some of the most beloved actors/actresses in england royalty checks." i love it. it's great. abc you're all idiots. no wonder our economy is faltering, we pay immigrants to work for us ... they send all their money back home. and when celebrations are in order, we pay other countries for their art. and what sucks is that they only showed the first four movies. wtf, abc? there's five now. if you're going to salute america with british film at least salute us with all five of the movies. and yes, i know, warner bros. make the movies and they are an american company. i rebut; not one american actor is present in any of the films. the only thing that an american had to do with the film were the films first two movies were directed by americans. but anyway ... have a good night |

disappointed; 30 june 2008: i have to admit, after the movie industry started making it's comeback and advertising keeps coming out with funny and intriguingly clever ads. i thought that everything was going to be fine. until i saw the new [insert name of blue box company here] whereupon the name on the fake crcedit card that are offering this week is "john q. sample." what?!?! what happened, guys? what happened to trying? just try, just once, for me and the rest of us who give a crap about anything. at least "john doe" sounds like a name. the first time you heard someone say "we got a john doe." you're all "what's a john doe, it's obviously not the name of someone because you wouldn't say a proper noun like that in a sentence so it obviously means something beside the name that it has previously alleged itself to." and then your mom/dad/pimp tells you, "'john doe' refers to someone that the police or other investigative services have found to have no identifiable name or calling." and then a light bulb goes off in your head and you say "oh, i learned something new today. one more wrinkle for me." but now, as our global society continues to decline into a greater dumber state of worldwide consciousness. now, "john q. sample" steps in, great now we don't even have to think about it. sample, means fake and the account number on the card is all zeros. i remember back in the day when it looked like a real card and then you start to cleverly imagine yourself buying an island off the coast of antarctica, you know so you didn't have to live with the regular world anymore, because everyone's stupid. let's accept the fact that the world is just getting dumber. but let's at least give them a chance. let's get rob lowe to shop at lowe's and then have him buy garden tools at low prices. the thought process being, "hey, look it's rob lowe, shopping at lowe's, well that's kind of clever ... ish. and he's buying...a lawn mower at a low price. that's great, i think this commercial just sparked one or two of my semi-dead brain cells back to life." at least, that way we might put off the great dumbing off a bit. on a side note, i wonder if it's in david caruso's contract for him to say as many stupid lines as physically possible in an hour's time. and he tries so hard to sound amazing cool with each delivery. sigh. this actually is more of a contribution to the downfall of man than previously noted. what something good to watch with david caruso? i know, that's almost an oxymoron. but seriously... Session 9 ... it's good, i promise. |

our stimulus check and how the government sucks, june 20, 2008: (title of post provided by aimee) now granted, our government does suck but ... they just gave me a bunch of money, so today, for now, i'm cool with them. But I will say this. Any other government in the world would have pulled this whole stimulus plan thing off in one day and there would have been no misplacement of funds. That's all I'll say on that. And I only need 12 more Indiana Jones Trading Cards for the base set and six foil cards and a couple of these other ones and I'm set ... UNH!! Cheers. |

5.14.08: random shit to be said: i'm currently trying to save money to buy the indiana jones trading cards, yes i'm a dork, but whatever. i want that big ass collectors set of james bond movies. also the aliens movies. so if anyone wants to buy me a father's day gift or just because you love me ... just buy me the cards, because i don't want anyone to spend 209 dollars on me or even the [insert correct money amount here (because i don't remember, nor do i currently have the energy to look up that price of the dvd set)] for the alien movies. so just buy me the cards. they are two bucks at target, but they only have the new indiana jones cards and not the heritage ones. but it doesn't really matter, i'll love any of them. but seriously, this father's day will be a test of your love for me. "you" being my massive fanbase of this website ........ i expect both of you to buy me the cards ... now. |

movie theater etiquette - 5.4.08: i think that they need to start giving quizes before you're allowed to buy tickets at the movies. we went and saw "forgetting sarah marshall" last night and i'm not sure how the two girls sitting next to us lived past the age of eighteen months. i would figure the function of walking would have been to much for their brains to handle and they would have stopped working. most all the funny bits they didn't get, all their little dysfunctioning brains could of saying was "what the fuck?!" i glad you learn a new word but shut up. not only are you ruining the movie for the rest of us, but each time you try and force the pile of shit that's in your head to work you kill off a couple hundred brain cells from the strain. i hope you don't do drugs; you'll be vegatables by your senior year in college. there's a new genre of hollywood that's forming and it's cleverly masked at stupid high school movies, or comedic love stories but there's more to them than that. there's this intelligent sublty about it's humor. it's great. "forgetting sarah marshall" was a lot better than i expected and i hope it does a lot better than what i'm thinking it's going to do because it deserves a lot. i'm hoping that the subtle intelligence doesn't fly over the heads of all the stupids. but anyway. it's a great movie, absolutely fantastic. i'll be buying it the day it comes out on dvd. i might even go see it again in the theater. everyone who enjoyed movies like superbad, oh brother where art thou, hot fuzz, shaun of the dead; should go see this movie. |

5.01.08: oi! ok seriously. if you go to a drive-thru know what the hell you're ordering. i sat in the line the other day for ten minutes waiting on two people, just two, to order. i'm sorry, the drive-thru is a convenience feature of any restaurant/crap food dining ... place. but regardless. if you have to read the menu for five minutes in order to figure out what you want to eat ... go inside. this breaks into a greater conversation of world wide consideration, which i'm not really in the mood or have the time to go into right now. but goddamn you inconsiderate bastards. go inside. if you're going to slack ass and ruin the days of the rest of the world then you need to wake up and realize that's why you got screwed on your mortgage and you're about to lose your house. you're an asshole. damn, i hope karma's real, i could really use some right now. and has anyone noticed how hot the cast is in grey's anatomy?!?!?! katherine heigl (i actually don't even know her name in the show, it doesn't matter at this point. unh!), chyler leigh (lexi), ellen pompeo (grey), and kate walsh (addison) is back. even sara ramirez. damn! what an amazing cast. and there's more than just the women to stare at. for the ladies, you've got patrick dempsey (aimee's favorite), justin chambers (karev) for you rebel lovers, and eric dane (sloan) for you none patrick dempsey fans. they could have an episode on extracting nutrients from the combined feces of humans, horses, and lemons; and still they'd have record ratings. i will say this ... addison is back. all men should rejoice. yes, the show is mainly written towards the female population but what a great excuse to go sight seeing, gentlemen. you can fake hanging out with your wife and ogle attractive ladies AT THE SAME TIME!!! thank god/allah/buddha/your-mom addison is back. |

victory is mine!! - 4.23.08: regardless of whether or not you think love is an instinct or a learned emotion. that man said it himself and i have the screen shot to prove it just in case he decides to change his web text. our whole argument was over whether love was limitless or not and in his persistent need to focus on survival instincts and learned emotions, he let it slip. "Love is limitless." what everyone thought was going to be a long and arduous battle of wits, i'm sorry. he forfeited. cheers, greho, cheers. |

dissection on love (part two) 4.22.08: for part one please visit the greho. Does Love Limit You? Firstly, I must say that the Greho's post has almost nothing to do with our original conversation. "'Love' blinds people, holds them back, limits, and confines them." That little passage amidst the other 346 other words is the only remnent of his and my original discussion. After reading his post, several times, I realized that his main argument is that love is not a survival instinct and therefore is an unnecessary emotion. If The Greho wants to take Love to it's primitive, survivalist essence then so shall I. Every pack of animals is protective to their own. In order for anyone or anything to feel the instinctial desire to protect what is theirs they must first have a rudementary concept of love. For is that not love. If love was not a necessary emotion then no animals would fight for their packs survival. This is the fundamental love. In order to survive within one's society you must first have the fundamentals of love. Without it society crumbles, everyone dies. Extinction, the anti-survival. Ok so, let's take a look at Greg's supposed arguments: "There is no necessity to the emotion." - DEBUNKT!! In the fundamentals of love it is necessary. "Humans are the only animal that feel this emotion." - DEBUNKT!! All packs, groups, societies, etc. of animals have the sense of love. Without it to trust and protect themselves they would no long exist. "Love" is not a survival instinct. - DEBUNKT!! He kind of went in circles with this one. So I'm not going to elaborate on my arguments because I'm starting to go in circles and even I'm getting bored. Coming back to our original conversation on whether Love in the sense of developing an emotional relationship with another human being. Love will in no way limit you or your life. For instance, using one of his examples, during our face-to-face conversation. A man and a women together in a relationship. The man has a decent job in the state where they currently reside. The women gets an offer for a job out of state. The Greho says she can't take the job because she is in love with the man who already has a job. Therefore love limits you. Let's dissect this. First, nowhere in his argument did he say that she even wanted the job. Secondly, was it a good job. Let's face it, if she's offered a shitty job out of state she's mostly going to be limited by her, hopefully, good common sense that it's not worth it to move to another state for a job that isn't an improvement. Thirdly, is she unhappy in her current state of residence. Just because one is offered a job doesn't mean one has to take it. Fourthly, which one is the better job? And why, if it's the out of state job that would be better for the couple, why is it that she doesn't take it? That's not love your describing, Greho, the an ignorance to what a real relationship is. A relationship concerns two people, but it's just one relationship. You're one unit. The Beatles when they were introduced on stage did the announcer say "Please welcome to the stage, Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr, also Known as The Beatles." NO... He said, "Please welcome The Beatles." A relationship is no different in this aspect. Yes, you are two individuals, with perhaps differing ideas on where you want your lives to go but it is one relationship. There are no limitations to what you can do when you have the endless encouragement from someone who love you. If you sit there and say that Love limits you and what you can do in your life then you have a gross misunderstanding on what love is. Love is a partnership where you not only do what's best for the relationship but you want to do what's best for the relationship. There are no limitations only more opportunities. Damn ... Looking back on this I f-ing sound like a freaking marriage counselor ... or a priest. I'm sorry about that, but it was a necessary evil to bring the bitchslap down with the rain of thunder. UNH!! |

4.4.08, she's my peanut wench: so aimee decided to make boiled peanuts today. we found this really cool, really fresh, market down the street from our house that sells raw peanuts. i'm not going where this market is located in case any of you are stalkers because i realize how sexy i am and i'm currently training aimee in the art of karate and kung fu to fend off all the ladies who say, "i want to have your babies." i'm sorry ladies, he's taken. but anyway. so aimee spent 47 hours boiling peanuts today and they turned out great. so i tell her, as i empty the bowl we've just been chomping on. "hey, i need more peanuts," and she brushes me off because she knows i'm only slightly serious. so i grab my computer and start typing. well i came to a snag on how to phrase something and she can't think of anything. so, i say "damn, we need to work on your improve skills." with a chuckle, i list off the things i've been trying to tell her that she needs to work on, "we need to work on your eye hand coordination, you're improve skills, and apparently you're listening skills, because i said i need more peanuts, wench!" |

later tonight, 3.12.08: basically our government (at least in the state of georgia) wants us to go out on sundays get drunk and then get behind the wheel of a car. why? so they can catch us and then we have to pay them for our crimes. what they don't take into consideration is that there are plenty of people who drink and drive yet don't get caught. i don't think having a bunch of drunken people driving all over the place is such a good idea but i guess that's why i'm not in politics. this is of course after we take into account that the united states is a country where church and state are seperate. fucking bible thumpers. if you don't want to buy alcohol on sundays then don't buy it. i don't believe what you do. but i'm not trying to shove my beliefs down your throat. i don't pass laws that hinder how you live your life. trust me, to believe in something takes a lot of effort. it's weird to say it like that but it does. and i'll respect anyone's beliefs if i met them. i go out of my way to not say certain words around those who find them offensive or just don't agree. i will respect your views and adapt my vocal chords accordingly. i do this, at least, when the respect is mutual. the only way to fix this country is to start over. i mean completely over. fire everyone in a political seat and start over with people who have brains. and since that is never going to happen ... fuck it. i'll still vote. you have to. you have to try and figure out who's going to screw up this country worse; then vote for the other. there's so many things wrong with this country it's pathetic and embarassing. |

need to go to bed 2.20.08: it's been a long time since i've been on a stage. sometimes it feels like it's been too long. i'm playing 106 west this friday. it should be a good show. justin blackstock and sean kagalis are playing as well. i met justin a while back, good guy, then i heard him on the radio and i had a total holy shit moment. 'i know that guy. and he's talking through my radio.' sean kagalis, an old school friend of mine. he shall be headlining, naturally. i haven't seen him in a very long time. it'll be good to see him again. i'm anticipating a great night of music and laughs; i could so use one of those lately, as well. directions side note: i finally saw 'the professional,' a movie that i have been wanting to see, but not enough to make a great attempt to see. it came on tv tonight. i was very impressed, for whatever that is worth. when i have some money laying around, i'll buy it. it deserves to be bought, definitely. |
