Oh how am I bored
November 29, 2001
Someone for the love of god update. I’m bored! I made this pact to myself that I would never feel bored because any moments that I do, I would either 1. train for some mighty martial arts action, or 2. draw or doodle a webpage. Right now I feel like neither because I hurt my knee somehow, nothing serious, but I just don’t want to aggravate it anymore. I don’t want to draw because I can’t find my drawing pencils. Yes, I have a set of really nice drawing pencils that I use to draw stuff with because they are pencils. I will keep doing that 100 punch thing although it’s getting to the point where it’s just like 2 pushups. I’m trying to throw them as fast as I can but still, it’s 2 pushup work level. Dang it.
Today was really cold out and I’m someone who usually wears t-shirts in December. But today, even I felt chilled. I like winter though. The dry cold air is just so amazing. Nothing beats the feeling of finishing class and stepping outside to take a big big whiff of that dry cold air. It fills the lungs and swirls around and cools the surrounding organs (and dries them because the air is dry!). I am updating like Fighter today because I like swords. I like to fight. I like to fight with swords. Swords is good.
OH DEAR GOD! Even the Simpsons isn’t holding me down. I must go punch stuff. Bye!
I love my honey. (Honey = Eri)
Who’s it gonna be?
Who’s gonna be my 10k hit? Who’s ma bitch…
You ruined it!
Dennis you ass! I was saving that 10,000 for my honey! Just kidding that would be too hard to pull off. Actually I was betting to see which of you guys would be the one to reload the page to get the 10,000th. Voila! Congratulations you win nothing. Well, you get a hearty thank you for the support you’ve given the webpage over the 2(?) years. I bet half the hits are from you.
Why does our webring always write about subjects without a right or wrong answer? Wasting time is so subjective. I see no waste in playing some video games. I see no waste in many many hours of video games. At least you’re doing something with the time. The only way time is wasted is if you sit there and stare at a wall. *MAYBE* that is wasting time, but it depends. And if we spend all our time maximizing the usefulness out of time, we’d all be automatons. Boy it would be kinda cool to be a T-1000.
Yay! David is an updater. Now if only Sunny would get back to his page.
Today is a cause for celebration. There are officially only 2 more classes left before I am out for this year. I’m updating from work which is not really true because i’m not working. So i’m updating from somewhere.
Woh 2
November 28, 2001
I just re-read my update. I want to clarify that my comment about Jesse’s old pages being all right angly was a poke of fun at my very own pages. Just in case you didn’t catch that (by you I mean everyone).
Oh yes, I love my honey, my honey is EK! That was for my honey’s coworkers who made a mean remark about how I say I say “I love my honey” but not mention who my honey is. So… I love her! Her coworker’s are mean. Mean they are.
Woh
Dennis is right, Jesse’s has exploded! But I really like it. Jesse has been coming out with these really cool designs these past few redesigns. I remember his pages used to be very linear with right angles everywhere, but now… woh! Keep it up dude! It is kinda hard to read, but who cares, they’ll get used to it. Oh yes, is the background text some sort of picture? I’m sure it is but I can’t seem to see it (it better not be one of those magic eye things. I hate those things) And Welcome David! I see the Blogger phenomenon has caught him too. Hehe.
As for the time thing. I’ve thought about that a lot before. I spend a lot of wasted time when I could be exercising or learning or whatever, but I find great pleasure in doing those small little things like reading websites and whatnot. The free time I have, I like to maximize the pleasure, not the usefulness (as in learning or reading). So basically put, I do whatever I want to do because I live in the moment. What really bugs me are people with set schedules for everything. Someone, who shall remain nameless (not anyone who reads my webpage anyway), had a schedule in highschool that says, “3:30 - 3:45 return home and have a snack. 3:45 - 5:30 do homework…” etc etc. They set out a really boring but efficient plan for everyday of the week. Although I thought it was a great idea, I would never be able to do that because I am not a robot.
I want to say more about this but I’ll save it for later. Bye.
Ok ok fine
November 27, 2001
I didn’t catch Justin’s sarcasm in his update. Look at my update time. I didn’t have my coffee yet and my group who was beside me at the time was pissing me off (actually it was just one person who is horribly hard to work with). So sorry Justin! To make up for it, I updated the links to you guys’ webpages. Now that I read the update again, it is pretty sarcastic. I need coffee every morning you see.
I am in an incredibly good mood because this morning, I finished the last major project this term. I am going to plan a study schedule because I must do well or die trying. I’m just planning the plan, so I will relax tonight and maybe get around to finishing that damn puzzle that’s 52.54% complete.
You guys, next time there’s some sort of parody, dispute, or sarcasm, PLEASE spell it out for me because lord only knows I’m not the brightest stone around. My dad’s store sells parody’s all the time. They talk funny.
Oh My God You Guys Suck
I don’t understand all this stuff about not wanting to update anymore. First Andrew, now Justin, and I suppose Jesse? WTF?
Firstly, if none of you guys ever visited/read my updates, if only me and Eri ever load up this URL, I would still update. Why? Because I update for me (and possibly for my honey too). I’m assuming that you guys aren’t updating because to some degree, Dennis’ update pissed you off or made you feel uncomfortable or made you cry or something. But seriously, that’s Dennis’ opinion, why should it affect you so much? If Dennis said you suck, it doesn’t mean you suck (sorry Dennis, for putting you on the spot). If I said Dennis sucks, it doesn’t necessarily prove that he sucks either. Actually, I just re-read Justin’s. Lack of support? Ok… I’ll go to paypal right now and send you a dollar. ??? If I took everything that Dennis said too personally, he would be my mortal enemy - making debaucheries of me and my favourite guy named Bruce, my singing, my fake surgery? I would have to kill him (or sing him to death).
I will be dissappointed that you guys won’t update. It’s not like we ever talk so your updates are one way I can keep up with what you guys are doing. Now I won’t even have that. That’s ok I guess. It’s your webpages after all. I just hope Dennis will keep updating in light of all this running away from things. I for one will update forever until I hate my webpage and decide to make it into a pay for porn site. Wow this update sounds too angry. It wasn’t meant to be that.
I’m giving up updating too!
for today.
I’m sorry, no matter how i think of it, it’s still funny
Hey Episode I wasn’t that bad
November 26, 2001
I rather quite enjoyed it. Jedi Knights are so cool. So feared, so courageous, so lucky that they have that light sabre. I’m just wondering why Palpatine appears as a normal human being in one instance and then as the Skeletor-like robed figure in holo-transmission. I guess we’ll have to wait till next year.
Did anyone see that R2D2: Behind The Dome thingy? It was funny.
If you’re emphathic, you’ll notice I’m a lot happier right now because I just finished that project on EA. Our recommendation is to sell because according to our forecasts, it’s trading at more than twice its discounted cash flow. Well, the P/E could be that high, but who knows. Analysts are projecting 113% growth the next year, and 25% long term. That’s crazy.
I love my honey.
Episode I is on tonight
Just in case you’re like me, you might want to watch Star Wars tonight because you didn’t catch it in the theatres due to all the people saying it sucked. But since it’s free on tv, it’s all good. What’s the lowdown on all this parody/anger thing that’s going on? Seems like our webring always has one of these every so often. Oh well. It’s better than not updating at all. (now don’t all go sensitive on me because of that remark)
Wow
November 25, 2001
This Colorquiz personality test really matched my personality traits. The results weren’t just general statements like “You dislike problems” or “You like being happy”, but actually revealed parts of me I don’t let anyone know about (the deep dark inner workings of Jerry).
Dear Myself
Dear Myself,
How are you? I’m good. Logically, that means you’re good too. I’m glad you’re good. I think you’ll agree with me when I say that this past week has just been assignment after project after case study. Thankfully, after Monday all the major assignments are over and I’ll have time to study for finals. I’ve reconsidered my stance on my future in accounting. On Thursday, I attended a CGA Luncheon / Info Session and found that the highly underrated CGA designation is worth considering. Firstly, they don’t require a potential student to be articling in a registered firm. A student requires relevant work experience, but they are very flexible in terms of what company, what you do, how long you do it for. Plus, they have a great employment referral system (so I hear) that’ll make job hunting more efficient.
Although I think every potential accountant views a CGA and a CMA designation to be less prestigious than the coveted CA designation, I found that the training and curriculum practically mirrors that of the CA’s. In fact, the CGAs go more in depth in finance. Also, the program is only 2 years long, with 4 modules, compared to the CASB program of 3 years with 7 (or 8?) modules. This basically means you can get the designation faster with less hassle.
What impressed me the most was the guy who gave the presentation. He represents the organization and goes from campus to campus selling the CGA program. After the lunch, I asked him a question regarding courses and marks. When I returned home 2 hours later, he already emailed me a reply. I couldn’t believe the professionalism and speed of his presentation and his replying of my question. This counters the view of CAs that I’ve seen.
In fact, I have yet to meet a CA who is happy. I have yet to meet a CA who is real. By that I mean that everytime I meet any in school or wherever, they are always on “office-mode”, that is, the cheerful, friendly, fuzzy bunny kind of people. I just know they have a personality that’s screaming to come out. Well I guess I’ve met 2 CAs who are real but they don’t really count. I met a CA who quit his practice to teach english to foreign students because he was unhappy.
What’s different about a CGA is that I believe most CGAs work in industry rather than public practice (actually I don’t know how many CAs are in industry, but I think there are more CGAs than CAs). Public practice is not for me, with the big liability and all.
So Myself, a CGA is definitely on the list of possible things to do.
Sincerely yours,
Jerry
Poor Dennis
November 24, 2001
That sure is a funny update ahahah. I doubt he’s still there, but just in case he is, let’s all pray he will be released from prison, I mean school, soon. I can’t imagine staying at school so late. I can’t actually, the angus building locks up at 11:00pm. Today is my great class followed by volleyball day. I’m excited.
I was talking with Aaron - you know, that guy from highschool that dissappeared off the face of the Earth? Well, I realized I’ve known him for 9 freakin years! That’s almost a decade! I think I’m going to call him my Decade Friend. Me and him go way back to the days of hockey, Kids in the Hall, uh, butt-shaking Mr. Simms, and so on. We should celebrate this past decade with a re-show of Bambo! (inquire for an explanation of Bambo, you’ll love it).
They’re hot on the trail

Bandit Hurling Hot Coffee Robs Florida Eateries
BOYNTON BEACH, Fla. (Reuters) - A man has robbed at least four fast food restaurants in Florida this month by throwing hot coffee on the clerk and snatching the cash from the till while the injured worker recoiled in pain, a police spokesman said on Wednesday.
The man, said to be in his 20s with a preference for cream and sugar in his coffee, has struck fast food restaurants in Boynton Beach, Boca Raton and other southeast Florida cities at least four times since Nov. 9, grabbing between $21 and $200 from the cash registers.
Each time, the robber ordered coffee and sometimes a pastry, then hurled the hot liquid on the clerk while the cash register was open. With the clerk stunned, the man jumped over the counter and grabbed the cash from the open till, police said.
Anyone who likes coffee with cream and sugar and also sometimes orders a pastry is a suspect, oh yes, in his 20’s. Hey… that’s me! Oh my god, the FBI are at my door. [here]
Tee hee
November 22, 2001
I’m on a roll. I just finished one assignment and I’m going to start another one right after this update. Very soon very soon - the campaign will be over. It was supposed to be over tonight but an 8 page report on EA is due soon and I stupidly volunteered to write it for the group (the benefit being they would plan the presentation which I totally do not want to do).
I’ve been thinking about the next design of my webpage and I’ve concluded that ever since I began making my webpage, I’ve tried to make every section of my page align to one single design. Then I thought why should every section look the same? So the next design will be made up of different looking designs. As for the netiquette of having same-looking designs, screw it. conventions are made to unconform with. Besides, each section is an independent part of the bigger whole anyway. So the first page will be some sort of portal, followed by different looking parts. Did I just say that in 15 ways? I also need a new logo.
Dennis’s update is cool. I do feel bad for Shannon though, she must spend a lot of time at the chiropractor to realign her spinal cord after he violently snaps her neck back. I like french kisses too, but I don’t think I’ll ever snap Eri’s head back because whiplash is not a nice gift.
I would just like to take this time to say that I finished my case for tomorrow
November 21, 2001
Are We Civilized?
Michelle has a great update which I would link but since it’s such a big secret, I can’t (her webpage that is). Aargh. Here’s my opinion. Are we civilized? We think we are but in my eyes, I see ourselves nothing more than a mere species of animal. All our ‘advances’ are just an evolutionary extension of our monkey relatives. Vocal speech can be compared with being able to spray crap out of your ass a la skunks. Opposable thumbs - ability to jump 15 feet in the air. Etc Etc Etc.
We celebrate our superiority and then revel(sp?) in the fact that sometimes we do bad things to each other. So if we were so great, why do we do these things? Thus, we are not great at all. Don’t reply to this because I really don’t want to know your view about this. After all, it’s my opinion.
It turns out I’m adding something else to my 5 Day Campaign but at this point, another assignment is just a drop in the bucket. I get to see my girlfriend in less than a month. Sorry folks, no drinking party this year.
Eek. Day 3
November 20, 2001
I finished my homework. Not really. But I stopped anyway. I don’t see why I should care now that I’ve decided I’m not going to pursue accounting anymore. I still love that strategic management class though.
I was in the midst of writing this essay, you know, just for the hell of it. It was a simple idea, it was a narrative of a kid whose grandpa told him a lot about his day and the technology he had. Only thing is that his grandpa is our age. So if your logical processing is anywhere near as complex as mine, you’ll know that it’s placed in the future. I wrote about 2 pages when I suddenly got frustrated and just deleted everything. I don’t know why I did it. It was pretty interesting too I think.
Ack. I’m just feeling so confined lately. Confined to school, confined to money and the lack thereof, and confined to whatever the hell it is that’s holding me back from becoming great (great at what though?). Could it be that I’m in one of my slumps again? Could it? The last slump ended really quickly so I didn’t really learn anything from it. This one has stuck around for the last little while. I’m still learning nothing. Crapulence.
Oh my god. It’s 11:30 already. I think I just time travelled forward because I don’t remember the past 2 hours at all.
“Screw you guys, I’m going home.”
Day 2 almost over…
November 19, 2001
4.5 hours today at school. 1.0 of it could have been reduced had the group… well, one in particular, been more efficient by joining us instead of running off to do something. Oh well. Group dynamics are what make group projects so *great*. Actually I do like group projects if the group is good. If only I could hand pick group members instead of just taking whatever comes my way (or having the teacher assign groups). I would create a supergroup capable of blowing the minds off of the assignments. Run scared little project, for SuperGroup is here!
I just need to study for a quiz tonight and Day 2 will be done.
I forgot what else I was going to say. Good day.
Day 2 of the 5 Day Campaign
It’s the 5 Day Blitz of 2 Projects, 1 Quiz, 2 Assignments, due on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. So yesterday marked the beginning of the campaign. We met at Bread Garden from 11 to 3, I got home at 3:30 and typed my part until 5:30. Then rested and went out to dinner with my dragonboat team until 9:30. Then did some of another project. Today I will continue with that other project probably until dinner time. Then come home and study. This is a long campaign indeed.
It appears the Taliban are offering an unconditional surrender. I guess bombs make you change your words because now they say bin Laden is not their “guest” anymore. Funny how might works.
If you always wanted how to fold those origami things, here’s a great page to learn how. I go now to eat then to the crunch of things.
Yay I am in a good mood again
November 17, 2001
First I had my strategic management class again. Although most of the class is spent scrambling to jot down the notes the prof warps through, the rest of the time is spent discussing relevant business things. I love this class, the prof, and the 8:30am’ness of it. After that, I spent some time at work just wasting time (wasn’t working, just hanging out with people). After that, 3 hours of continuous volleyball!
I’ve decided that after martial arts, volleyball is my second favourite sport (are martial arts sports?). I’ve been wearing those ankle weights while playing for about a month now and i think it’s paying off. I went through 2 hours today and decided I had enough and took them off. I felt so lightfooted I almost took off. It’s so great. The people who play are getting so much better compared to the beginning of the term. I on the other hand seem like I haven’t gotten better. The only advantage I have is that right after I take off the weights, I get about 30 minutes of incredible speed. After that, the legs get used to the normal weight again and I return to normal mode. Doh.
My punch training is paying off in volleyball too. My serves are among the hardest in the gym. Although my accuracy isn’t that great (I estimate maybe 6 or 7 out of 10 make it), when they do go where they’re supposed to, not many people can dig it. Granted, most of these people didn’t play competitively before (like I did much). So skrew basketball from now on. I will just concentrate on volleyball.
I’m happy right now. I won’t be for the next few days though. There’s project after project after assignment after quiz next week. Plus I’m speaking at some forum for a bunch of chinese business people from Guangdong. I just throught I’d brag because it sounds like it’s something important (it’s not).
Blargh Blargh
November 15, 2001
Today was dizzying. I crawled out of bed after only sleeping 6 hours and angrily got ready for school. Bad Mood. On the half hour drive to school, I was listening to a really wise person speak about his career as a funeral preparer or something (taped chinese ghost show on the radio). He was really wise and kind and the things he said about being a good person really reached out to me. Good mood. I had my strategic management class. Good mood. I had my financial statement analysis class. Bad mood. Audit class. No change in mood. I stop by at work and play some games. Good mood. Go to group meeting after. No change. Drive back home. Bad mood.
My marks are crap, even by my standards. I don’t understand why. I’m studying as much as before, the material isn’t that much harder, and I do care about these marks. But it’s all crap. I don’t care if I expect bad marks because I didn’t study or whatever, but the sad thing is, I really thought I did ok. Nope. Denied I is. Me thinks on a subconsious level, I know I won’t be in accounting so studying accounting right now is a waste of time. I think so
Oh well. I did finish that puzzle. Only 6 days! I haven’t finished a puzzle by myself in over 15 years I think. Sad as it sounds, it sure beats going out. I don’t like going out anymore at all. It’s boring. It’s costly. It’s not with Eri. So I prefer to stay home.
I’m boiling with negativity right now. I will take it out through punches and kicks now. Bye.
Show’s over folks
November 14, 2001
The last picture on the webcam is of me feeling the glory of finishing the assignment. In my hand is page 1. That graph there took more than an hour to do (there’s a lot of little calculations within those cells, along with attached assumptions and notes to go with those little cells). I feel great! I think I’m going to finish my puzzle in a day or two! Woo ooo hoo.
For your Voyeuristic Pleasure (Sick Obsession, etc)
Here is me doing my financial statement analysis homework. I will probably be here crunching numbers for awhile so if you want to watch me do my homework, please! If I make kissy faces, it’s because I was talking to my honey. Oh god! I am ugly, Fugly even. Oh well. It could be worse.
Here I go! Question 1… forecast operating free cash flows by forecasting a comprehensive set of financial statements and deriving free cash flows to debt and equity holders from the income statement and cash flow statement… oh god.
It finally works
November 13, 2001
After a few months, I finally managed to get the lovely Quickcam that Dennis and Shannon got me for my birthday to work. Actually I didn’t do anything. Logitech came out with some new drivers and I thought I’d give it a try and lo and behold. It works. I really don’t know how to get things working right now so I just tried some free-trial service with Spotlife. So here is my webcam page if you’re interested in what my living room looks like. The quality isn’t very good because I can’t get a good focus on. Doh.
That wasn’t finished
November 12, 2001
The story from yesterday wasn’t finished. It had another part and ‘to be continued’ but that part was mysteriously deleted for some reason. No matter. Dennis keeps insisting it is fanfic, as in fiction, this is not fiction. It happened last week during my audit class
Yes, remember last week a girl mysteriously died after Halloween night and police issued warnings about the candy? Well a toxicology report showed no poisons and the police lifted the candy warning. So my previous point that terrorists won’t target small urban neighborhoods (or something like that) still currently holds true. I bet the parent killed the child somehow
I think Star Wars the Phantom Menace might be on tv tonight. I think if it’s on I’ll watch it and also work on a new puzzle I bought. “Now with Perfalock!”
The voices in my head
November 11, 2001
It started two days ago. After that planet-fall mission, the team collected several of those egg samples and packed them in Storage Bay 4. I was responsible for sealing the freeze containers that would hold those eggs until we get back to earth to let the, pardon the pun, eggheads in the UNN labs take a look at them. Zabarski, the science officer 3rd grade was the first to get infected. He must have poked the wrong egg because the next thing I heard was that idiot running around screaming that ‘it’ got him. We all ran to him to see what was going on. Oh boy what a site. The egg was opened up and there was a trail of some sludgy stuff running from the egg to Zabarski. When the med team finally sedated him, they found a rather nasty wound on his forearm. Something had gotten in
I’m no senior officer, but even us juniors know that in this kind of situation, you quarantine the whole damn storage bay and place everyone who touched those eggs in stasis. Strangely, no orders came down. In fact, a ship-wide was sent out saying a small explosion caused the injury to Zabarski. What the hell was going on here
The next day, my team was sent down to the Storage Bay to clean things up - Zabarski toppled over many boxes and other crap. About half an hour during our job, I noticed one of the freeze containers was open. This was not good. Another one of those ‘things’ might be out. I crept over to shut it. Oh shit. The egg was still there, but it was open, whatever was inside did get out. I yelled to Marcus to shut the bay doors and send an emergency alert to the bridge. He stumbled to the control panel but just as he was about to push the comm, something flew onto his chest, knocking him down. Shit! The next thing I knew, the whole team was being attacked by something, or rather, many somethings. My damn legs were frozen in spot as I saw everyone go down. That was when the thing got me. It struck me from behind
I remember feeling a very sharp poke in the base of my neck. It felt like a very fast jab of a pen. I toppled over and squelched in pain. Whatever struck me was now burrowing into my neck. Fuck. I awoke some time later in sick bay. They put me in one of those medical box bed things that resemble a coffin with glass coverings. I tried to feel my wound but my hands were tied down.
Things To Do List
November 09, 2001
- Whisper sweet everythings to my girlfriend
- Continue the nightly 100 punches before sleeping
- Watch Star Trek: Voyager (just kidding, it sucks)
- Listen to Drops of Jupiter by Train for the umpteenth thousand time
- Submit Dennis’ email to porn mailing lists
- Discover that his email is already in most of those lists
But seriously, his update is worth reading. Spam is the cankersore of the internet (viruses being… uh… viruses). I get so much spam even though I love consolidating my loans in easy monthly payments. Also, I’m pre-approved for visas every day now I think. I love feeling so special.
My cat’s breath smells like cat food
Hi. Hi. If you don’t like your job, then here’s a really good alternative for you. That must be the best job out there, think of how satisfying it must be to really help those poor animals. On another note, I really don’t understand these people. Here they are getting everything they have bombed to shiz and here they are celebrating the downing of one measly helicopter. Of course, the “good guys” deny any helicopter being shot down, but it could all be propaganda. This update is jumping all around now. I’m going to the art gallery again tonight. Bye.
The corridor churned with blinking lights
November 08, 2001
As I slowly crept down that corridor, I could hear something around the corner. A slow muttering, almost inaudible, broke the silence of the flashing displays and computer terminals. I clutched onto my beretta tightly for I would be using it soon. I knew it. I held my breath as I backed up to the wall. Quickly! Check behind you! Good. Good, none of those damn walking corpses had snuck up. The one around the corner must be alone… hopefully. Shit! It heard me! The walking corpse limped around the corner and was quickly rushing towards me with a rusty looking pipe held in an attack position. With less than 3 meters between us, I quickly took aim and pulled the trigger. The bullet burned through its chest like a hot poker in a pile of flaming coals. The creature yelped an inhuman screech, tumbling backwards in the process. It dropped the pipe and when it fell to the metal grid floor, it gave off a loud clang. Shit! Others will have heard the clang and they’ll be here soon. I have to move fast. The creature, now writhing in pain from the gun wound, started to communicate with me. “Killlll me… killlll me….” I didn’t understand. Just a few seconds ago, this beast of a man was going to bash my head in. Now it’s asking me to kill it. I pitied the thing. I knew he didn’t want to become what he had become. It’s those damn monsters! They killed all of them. Whatever humanity this man still possessed was taken from him and now was oozing out of the tube-like thing poking out of his neck. I symphathized with this man, most likely a tech from engineering. I moved closer to him, pointed my gun to his head, and pulled the trigger. On his blood stained uniform was a tag with his name on it. Rest now Gary, you’re human again.
Sometimes we need to lose to be able to win.
Can someone answer this?
November 05, 2001
I changed something on this webpage… what is it? $10,000,000 goes to the first person who answers the question
“I know! You changed the randomly generated picture and phrase thingy
You got it whoever you are, the money will be sent to you soon! I meant to change those pictures and text on a regular basis but I got sidetracked since summer. Tonight though, having no want to do homework or study, I decided to finally put up something new. The theme here is stuff that is amazing but 99% of the time is untrue. I have some other pictures lined up too so I think I’ll change them every month or so. As far as I know, I can only select 3 pics or text to randomly choose from at any time but that’s ok because the phrases are supposed to somewhat fit the picture. I mean… “simplicity in art” will not fit for the big mars face picture… right?
My poor baby is sick and forgot to go the dentist. Doh. I will buy her limitless amounts of white chocolate mocha. Be warned, Starbucks.
Lyrical Genius
November 03, 2001
now that she’s back in the atmosphere
with drops of jupiter in her hair, hey, hey
she acts like summer and walks like rain
reminds me that there’s time to change, hey, hey
since the return from her stay on the moon
she listens like spring and she talks like june, hey, hey
tell me did you sail across the sun
did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded
and that heaven is overrated
tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
one without a permanent scar
and did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there
now that she’s back from that soul vacation
tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey
she checks out mozart while she does tae-bo
reminds me that there’s room to grow, hey, hey
now that she’s back in the atmosphere
i’m afraid the she might think of me as plain ol’ jane
told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land
tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
and head back to the milky way
and tell me, did venus blow your mind
was it everything you wanted to find
and did you miss me while you were looking at yourself out there
can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
your best friend always sticking up for you even when i know you’re wrong
can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance five-hour
phone conversation
the best soy latte that you ever had… and me
tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
and head back to the milky way
tell me did you sail across the sun
did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded
and that heaven is overrated
tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
one without a permanent scar
and did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there
now i understand why my great artist friend loves train so much. I love this song to death.
Boy was I wrong
Geez this morning I woke up and heard on the radio news that a little girl died and her mother suspects it was from poison candy given out at Halloween - authorities have yet to prove it. Supposedly, she became violently ill after Halloween and of course everyone is pointing at the candy. I seriously doubt it was someone who supports the terrorists but they’ve (the police) told kids from a certain neighborhood not to eat their candy - how is that possible? I hope this doesn’t blow up into something big. That’s all for now.
I forgot to say
November 02, 2001
Oh boy, updating is so easy now! I forgot to say that yesterday was definitely the strangest halloween I’ve ever seen in my 21 years of existence. The strangeness was in the fact that I was home all night and NO kids rang my doorbell for candy. Even though we turn off the porch light, every year there usually are a few kids who try anyway. Last night - nadda. I’m wondering why all the kids have dissappeared. Is it that the 4 anthrax deaths have caused all the mothers in my neighborhood to lock their kids in the cellar? I mean, on average, 20000 people die from the flu each year. 4 anthrax deaths doesn’t amount to much in the big picture. Plus, I’m sure terrorists aren’t going to send out anthraxed mail to Joe Smith, 52151 Main Street, Anytown, USA (or Canada for that matter). I mean, I’m quite sure they want maximum effects if they were to commit a terrorist act. How scary would it be to attack an old lady in the name of Jihad right? So… only big public places need to worry really. Urban neighborhoods, I’m quite certain they’re ok. Oh yeah, here was a prediction for the next terrorist attack - scheduled for oct31 at the yankee game. Even though it fell short of “being correct”, it’s still interesting.
And now I should sleep for tomorrow is my training day. Ie, it’s the day I play 4 hours of volleyball wearing 10lbs on my ankles - it’s amazing how light I feel after the four hours and after I take off the weights. Goodnight my sheep.
Ok i think everything should be ok now
The sense of accomplishment achieved from setting this thing up is amazing. I almost feel like a computer nerd now. I still need help with more complicated html or java or the other crap that GoLive does for me but that’s ok. The most important thing is I still get to write my wonderful updates that you crave so badly. Don’t deny your body of such pleasures. Here, have another bite… mmm…
I don’t have anything insightful to say today because I’m so drained from setting up this stupid thing. Rest assured that after tomorrow, I will.
Here are some things I found on the www that may interest you:
- Bin Laden song - this is hilarious look at the way Bush looks so much like a little monkey!
- You think our legal system is stupid?
- A very long read regarding 911 and a theory of its real roots (i haven’t finished reading it yet, it sounds really farfetched but it’s interesting).
I can now update anywhere… muhahaha
This is going to be painful. Not only will I not be able to put those cool little icons of my eye anymore, but now I have to put in those stupid tags everytime I want to update. It’s almost like I’m writing in actual html. Almost. It took all night to set up this thing and the archives and it doesn’t even look at great. The benefits are that I can update anywhere that I have internet access which will be much more convenient and it automatically archives everything into nice little monthly files. Still, it’s not tweaked perfectly so there’s bound to be some errors or broken links. And that icon at the bottom is kind of ugly. I’ll move that later.
I also have to remember all my header settings.
