last one
random as they may be, each of the posts before this one was interesting to write. its strange to see what comes to mind when i’m just sitting in front of my computer thinking of something to write about. it is also shocking for me to realize that after two sentences i have forty words. it is done.
old disney cartoons
i remember one day during the summer i was up before noon on my day off from work for some reason and i decided it was a good idea to watch the little mermaid cartoon and a lion king cartoon about the pig and the rat (i can’t recall their names). i was quite disturbed by these cartoons. the pig’s name is pumba and the rat’s name is timone i just looked it up. the little...

zelda
one of my friends on my floor recently got a device that lets you hook up a super nintendo controller to your computer through the usb port. his addiction to old nintendo games came back to him just like the addiction he had when he was little. one time my friend and i were watching him play zelda and to my shock they both knew where all the little secrets in the game were despite the fact that...
my sister
my sister is the biggest atheist ever. she loves being an atheist, much to the dismay of our mother, and loves flaunting it over people. i was watching an episode of south park in which all the people of the world are atheists in the future and cartman has to interact with them in order to get a nintendo wii which by this point is ancient. anyway all the atheists on the show basically replace all...
rap
rap music is the bane of my earthly existence. i hate that a person speaking over noise is considered music and that it is extremely popular. if i wanted to listen to a person speak over noise i would have a conversation next to a busy street. what ever happened to someone learning how to play an instrument and getting a bunch of other people who played instruments together and making music as...
foreign music
i watched some foreign music videos with my friend and my roommate the other night and i have to say they were quite bizarre. cultures are so different its shocking. i just remember thinking how can this make sense to these people. i mean i don’t really find most of the music videos of this country to make sense, but these were really out there. i couldn’t even recreate what...

conservatives
for all you conservatives out there let me tell you that i really really hate most of you. how can it be that after millions of years of evolution people are still so stupid. i am probably one of the most liberal people ever except when it comes to abortion which i think is vile, other than that i’m a dirty liberal hippie and proud of it. i love america, but not the fascist regime that...
food
i haven’t had a decent meal in weeks due to my inability to spend money on anything but drinks for the weekend and the horrendous slop they force me to eat every day. i miss food that i can buy for myself and cook the way it should be made. this mass production of slop in the “dining halls” is the way livestock should be fed not civilized human beings. i miss eating authentic...
perfumery
my interest in wine led me to the subject of perfumery on wikipedia. while wikipedia is not the most reliable source i do think that its a good place to get general information. it turns out that perfumery is extremely complex much like wine tasting. the perfumer must be able to recognize hundreds on individual smells and know how to get them naturally or synthetically. a perfumer is told the...
wine
i had a wine seminar the other day through a gentleman initiative. while i already knew everything my brother had to say it got me thinking about wine. most people cannot tell the difference between a good merlot and the undrinkable swill they are served because it has been oxidized from being opened and closed for the past two days. while i am by no means an expert on wine i have found it very...
gladiator
i was watching gladiator the other day and i began to wonder what ever happened to the general being the most adept warrior on the battlefield that rallied his men behind him. now it seems as though we choose our generals based more on behavior than military valiance and strategy. especially since the strategy going into iraq seemed like something i could have come up with. i’m not saying...

update on bike falls
my last excerpt pertained to my roommate nearly scaring some guy off his bike. i remember another time when i was in my cousin’s car and we saw a young kid riding his bike down the street with his friend. as he was riding a locust flew into his hair. this was followed by a high pitched scream and him falling off his bike. we stopped the car and laughed and his friend rode away from him...
roommate
my roommate is completely out of his mind and i love it. he says the craziest things in the most inappropriate times. he loves to scream at random people as we walk down the street, especially if they are on bikes. he almost scared some guy off his bike on the way to the library the other day. it was probably the funniest thing i had ever seen.
wii
wii bowling is perhaps the most euphoricly infuriating game ever created by man. almost every day i got to my buddy’s room and we play wii bowling with a couple of guys for about 20 minutes its like a cocaine addiction that needs to be satisfied daily if only for a moment, but once you get the high score you’re never satisfied with anything but another high score. i’m chasing...
