| summer has begun. bout time. Finally began reading a book that has been taunting me since Christmas. now that school is out it's time for (drumroll) another Douglas Coupland book (not that I finished the last 2 that I started...add those to my 'todo' list(s) )
uh...back on track:
I love the weather in spite of my noticeable lack of AC in my minivan. oh well. gets some good fresh air into my lungs, right?
this is semi-entirely pointless, but anyways; I learned a few things last year.
1) Marshall's Dept. Store has amazing deals
2) Electrice (brand) sunglasses are freaking sweet.
how does this relate to anything? well, no AC in the van + windows down == lots of crap flying into my eyes continuously. My Electrics (the 9-volts) do a sweet job of shielding my eyes from the sun and from all the bits of Ohio trying to assassinate my corneas.
So how's life with all of you people out there in Xanga/Facebook world? I feel like I've been fairly disconnected with most of you since the job started. hard to work out a regular schedule when the boss keeps changing it. I'll try to make time for all of you this summer. We'll see how things go.
oh yeah. congrats to my cousin, who is getting married in October, the day before my pop's b-day. bachelor party in New Orleans? sometime around september. sa-weeet. never been there, hear that it's still a blast.
well. i think that's enough insane ramblings for tonight. I leave you with this:

(I ran screaming away from windows about October)

www.xkcd.com
but beware, only true geeks will enjoy it. Or chicks named Lauren who are cool enough to despise most country music.

quote of the night, regarding the original creation of Ghost Rider:
(and the creator of G.R. now suing EVERYbody over the movie
-------------------
1: Okay, I've got this idea for a story.
2: *Nods.* *Packs it.*
1: So there's this biker guy.
2: *Keeps nodding.* *Lights it.*
1: But he's not a regular biker. He's a skeleton.
2: Right on. *glurble glurble*
1: And he's not just a regular skeleton. He's a skeleton on fire.
2: Whoa. That would be cool. *passes*
1: *glurble glurble* And his bike is on fire, too.
2: Does he have a weapon or anything? Like a flame-thrower?
1: No, man. This dude's about the old ways. He doesn't need a gun. He's got a whip. *glurble glurble* *pass*
2: A whip? *incredulous look*
1: Well, it's like a metal whip.
2: ??? *glurble* You mean a chain?
1: Yeah, a chain. ON FIRE.
Yeah, it's a real shame to have seen such a great idea treated so badly. ----------------------

| This is stinking sweet. Watch all 3 Videos
tell me you don't shed a small tear after that third video...
In Fable 2 (video game, for those who don't know) you have a pet dog that is with you in the game. The interactions are going to be amazing.

| First off, I was looking for the video on the LEFT. I'm a geek. but since I found the quote on the right side of the page, I'd like to take this opportunity to make fun of it and the person who posted it. Yes. That's right. outright mock them.
The quote is as follows
"Living a life of dignity surrounded by the horrific immorality of
religiously inspired anti-gay bigotry can be an awesome challenge.
Nevertheless, speak out without fear when confronting the deep
arrogance and hypocrisy of the religious fundamentalists and their
delusions."
Ok, so now there are people who claim to have morals who are also in favor of homosexuality? I thought that the primary topic to avoid when talking about gayness was morals since morals normally assumes a higher level of accountability, i.e. God.
And obviously if you believe that God exists, and that he created sex firstmost for reproduction, secondmost for enjoyment (the order can be swapped if you want, for the sake of argument)...either way, same-gender sex is not conducive to both of those needs. So if you are abusing something that God gave to you, you will be held responsible at a later time.
Anyways, even if you don't believe in God, and you are confused about the meaning of morals, I believe that whether you believe in God or evolution, Homosexuality does not make ANY sense. any thoughts on this one?
Oh yeah. I'd like to say that I think that this person is immoral if they don't like having sex with their pet Fido. He/She is obviously a narrow minded biggot.

| I just had a sobering moment as I was going thru my old xanga posts.
I got a gamecube from Grandad for Christmas, 2005.
I had it through July of last year before it started throwing temper tantrums.
By August 15th, I finally had it dissected and ready to be worked on.
It is now March. That means I have now had the Gamecube ready-to-be-fixed for almost as long as I owned and played it before it died.
Part of that is attributed to Regan allowing me to borrow his (Metroid Prime rocked, btw) and part of it is due to my ownership of one Nintendo Wii (complete backwards compatibility. Suck on it Xbox360 and P$3 !)
geek rants aside, the last 7 months have flown by...
a lot has changed, and nothing has changed. It's so weird. thoughts? anybody?
