haha! thanks! how are things going on the east coast? cold enough for you?

yo yo! had to make a new name and shtuff... but i made it! hooray!

It was awful... ugh. It made me so mad

yeh, you'd think jason would have a little foresight and woulda thought that maybe having more than 1.50 in cash probably wouldn't be enough for breakfast. garrr. ah well.

little shop and the incredibles are indeed good movies, but i probably would've rather watched them than put in movies yet to be seen. I had Crimes & Misdemeanors sittin right there to be watched, but if I'd've put it in then I'd've either a) fallen asleep and not absorbed the whole thing or b) uhm. I forgot. but if I've already seen a movie, then meh, not so bigga deal if I fall asleep. crimes & misdemeanors was good, by the by.

hoorah! it's cool to know that someone other than myself discovered/recognized the wondrous ability to do fuzzy morning math! hehe.

aw. asshat wakes up in the fetus position. that's kyoot.

y'know, I've never seen Romy & Michell's High School Reunion. uhm. even though Alan Cumming did a good job in it, is it a decent movie? You have a weird obsession with paul reuben's even since he got caught masturbating in the porno theater? ahem. well. one time....

masturbation is both easy and fun, by the way. Robot Chicken brought up an interesting question the other night: If you're making out with yourself (god knows how. cloning?) would you really be gay or would it be masturbation?

don't exactly see alan cumming in the role of the joker, eh? well who would YOU choose? I could name a few others. like tim roth. and adrien brody. but who would you choose?

I dunno if I already asked you this question, but what, in your opinion, is the most UNattractive part of a guy? If I've already asked you this, then I apologize profusely and at least ask you to repeat what your answer was. heh.

just a couple more things about tool and then I'm done! hehe. 1) since their new album just came out, I thought that, y'know, they'd probably be touring. turns out they'll be here on the 12th in a MUCH smaller venue from the one they played at last time. tickets were sold out. DAMN. it'd just put a big dent in my funds, anyway. 2) what tool songs do you have? okay, the topic of tool has now officially been dropped.

I think I asked you in a previous comment: "When you go to concerts, do you like to get down there in the pit or do you tend to hang back a bit and sway with the good vibrations?" so what say you?

y'know, I didn't do anything for cinco de mayo. have yourself a good time?

I'm glad you spent one last happy moment at coney. I remember when I was a kid I'd just sit in the sand at the playground and push my fingers through the sand and think "this is my childhood, so I should absorb and cherish every moment I have of it." but yeah. for some reason cherishing my childhood involved sitting by myself, pushing hot sand instead of Playing with other kids. heh. whatever. I have no regrets about it.

don't feel bad about not having uber-long comments. I was just worried that mine were to the point where you'd roll your eyes and think, "oh jeez, here's ANOTHER long ass comment from that cockball that I'll have to read for the next 15 minutes."

I was thinking about putting this as an open quesiton in a post, but whatever: I've received a sizable sum of money for graduation. what should I spend it on? comics? books? movies? save it? travel? the responsible person in me says I should save it. but. I dont wanna. heh. but I will if I should.

mix cds?! hurrah indeed! last night I was unofficially creating another track list for you in my head. but don't get too excited. i have a feeling it might be one of those cds that may take awhile to create. so. just pretend i didn't say anything about creating another mix cd. heh.

now it's time for me to unpack. i dont wanna. i reeeeaaaally dont wanna. i also dont wanna look for a job yet. but parents...they are insistent, they are. ugh. can't I just go out to the artists' quarter and stay in & read for the rest of my life? cuz that's be super. pooh.

edited cuz of stuff. y'know. heh. man I seem to like to ask questions.

[Edited on May 08, 2006 12:44PM]

Damn straight!! I'm gona get them with my jedi powers!!!!!!!

♥

damn, what did that little white girl do now?

#1- Yay for meeting in real life!
#2- That hookah was mad good.
#3- Mace. It's the answer to everything.
#4- Who the heck are those super incredibly hott animated chicks up there? Soooo hott! Is it wrong to have a crush on a cartoon? Haha

well, instead of giving you a drunken phone call, I'm typing a drunken comment. I promise a drunken phone call some other time. heh.

YOU ARE CORRECT! a mime IS a terrible thing to waste! heh. I dunno if that was a typo or what. but yes, mimes are people too. They deserve just as much respect as your common magician.

I saw some kind of simpsons movie commercial today during the simpsons. the camera was following a close up of a letter that looked like it was going to be the Superman emblem but ended up being a shirt on Homer while sitting on the couch. was this the same thing that was in the Ice Age 2 previews? I hope they have different writers working on the movie from the writers working on the show TODAY cuz the recent simpsons shows just SUCK ASS. well.... they're okay. they could be A LOT better.
-sneeze!-

Today I had homemade chocolate chip pancakes. mmmmm baby.

Did you like Kill Bill 2? I've yet to see it, but people keep saying how different and bettter it is from Kill Bill 1. I even think I dislike Uma Thurman in Sweet & Lowdown, now that I think of it. I haven't watched Gattaca in awhile, so maybe I'll hate her there too. I dunno. gotsta give it another looksee.

i think you need to come over here and give me a hamburger. a good hamburger, though. not one of those mcdonalds or burger king burgers....

yeh, I think you'd probably dig Dark City. it really looks at what makes human identity.

I once had a class called Human Identity in the Creative Arts. it seemed kinda bitchin. now think. what do you think that class would entail? I think it would, well, look at human identity in music, movies, books, poems, possibly even comics. I thought it'd be about the human condition through art.

You know what it turned out to be? a motherfucking MUSIC THERAPY class. now. that wouldn't be such a horrible thing if I actually SIGNED UP for a music therapy class. BUT I DIDNT! I got an A, but I was so fucking pissed at the end of that class. the title was such a cocktease and it turned into a class that I didn't expected to turn into. grah!!!

oh yes! I kiiiiiinda remember that dummie story from Goosebumps. I remember another story I liked was called Say Cheese and Die, which was about a camera that "showed" the future. It later became a premise for an "Are You Afraid of the Dark" episode and basically the third installment of ....I can't think of what the movie is called... FINAL DESTINATION! yeah. I think. I can't say for sure since I've never seen it.

were there any specific choose your own adventure that stick out to you? there was only one that I was really obsessed wtih.

so how did ice age 2 end up being?

aww, talking of life. that's about all Amy & i talk about. life & love. which usually leaves us depressed & the consumption of alcohol often ensues.

y'know, yeah, when I look at my poetry collection, there really isn't anything there. it's all pretty much in my anthologies I was required to buy for classes. but man. when I look at some of the poems I've fell in love with over the years... damn. suddenly I realized that there were quite a few I HIGHLY enjoyed. ....I dunno. I'm a nerd. to make me even MORE nerdy, I like poetry that has form.... free verse, while is nice, is not always my bag.

it's okay that you didn't call me back that one night. by the time you got home, I'd've been asleep by about a half hour cuz I had to work in the morning. so no worries.

incidentally, I have to pee and I'm in a rather pissy mood. neither have anything to do with each other. so I hopes you is having a spectacular night. I'll catchya on da dark side of the moon, homes. peace out.

I'm writing this between breaks. sooo I should be able to finish this in about, oh, a few hours. or days. heh.... I'm currently writing a test for my 6th graders. hurrah.

Night Watch... did that just come out or something? It sounds familiar. I know there are quite a few horror movies comin out, but, yeah, I've kinda been in my own little world lately so I'm not really hep with newly released films.

I have seen some pictures and trailers for the Silent Hill movie comin out, though. That's lookin pretty creepy, in my opinion. I've never actually played the game, but oigh, it's lookin uber freaky. I'm excited.

You ever seen Resident Evil? ugh. I'm a huge fan of the game. buuut not such a big fan of the movie. The game's so scary! It's actually frightening! but the movie? They totally changed it from a dark, moody, creepy tale about lurking zombies and feral zombie dogs into some shoot-em-up action flick. blagh! It really disappointed me. You need MOOD in horror movies, dammit! and it just didn't have the right mood for me.

Same thing with this V for Vendetta movie comin out. the mood & tone just doesn't seem right to me. It looks like they're trying to make it look like a superhero movie when I personally would have made it much more....suspenseful? I mean, the V guy is basically a terrorist. He could almost be seen as a creepy, idealistic, sociopathic murderer who lurks in the shadows and strikes suddenly, like a trapdoor spider waiting for a prey. I think I've thought about this too much...

That Ultraviolet movie comin out seems kinda intriguing. it looks likes the kinda movie Aeon Flux was SUPPOSED to be.

It's starting to get warm here. about the mid-40s. It never really got all that cold here, but I'm surely not complaining. I welcome the warmth with open arms. god I hate the cold.

I really WAS NOT going to bring this up again. but I HAD to. You know that girl I was talkin from SG who has a baby, is pregnant with another, and is constant conflict with her fiance? I think her name is lostdai. Well she just recently wrote an entry about how can her life be satisfying or fulfilling when all she does it look after her baby, clean up the house, and watch tv? GRARR. I feel like a total jerkass when I talk about this. cuz yeah, this IS an actual person. but man. WHAT DID YOU EXPECT? Granted, perhaps her first baby wasn't planned. but then she WILLINGLY tried to get pregnant AGAIN. I even ASKED her WHYYYYY do you want to have another baby NOW? Don't you want to enjoy your youth while you still have it? of course I didn't get a response. but just NOW she's wondering why her life feels empty, repetitive, and not that fulfilling? I don't really meeaaaan to sound like an asshole, but really, perhaps she should have thought of that beforehand. god I feel like an ass. but still. I dunno. It's not like I'm the smartest cat around, but perhaps people need to stop and think before doing something life-changing like that.

man. I just feel like a dick for saying that.

Hey, provided that you don't hate me because of my rant, I gots a question! I really don't think I have that bad of a Minnesotan accent. Yes, I say "pop" instead of "soda." Yes, I say Minne-soda instead of Minneso-tah. but I'll be damned if I say "you betchya" or any of that crap. However, I must admit that my dad's side of the family can get that way and it does get more prevalent the more north you get. ANYHOO! Onto my question! heh. Would you say you have the stereotypical New Yorkan accent? or. something...?

True, true, you make a good point about myspace allowing larger pictures with a free service. BUT! Myspace will only allow you to post 12 pictures and no more. I'm pretty sure. SG allows one to post many pictures. So I guess it's kind of a give and take. or give or take. or whatever. but your argument is a good one. I guess I don't have much trouble converting my pics to a smaller size, though.

Did you ever read The Giver by Lois Lowry? I heard they're turning that into a movie. oh man. I absolutely love that book. If you have read, we must discuss!! like...what do yooouuuu think happened at the end? I always associate Radiohead's OK Computer with that book. It just seems to go so well with it. You have any book/music associations like that?

I also heard that they're developing a new Ninja Turtles movie!! woot! One that's actually faithful to the original comic. Didja know that it was originally kind of a spoof of the X-Men and Daredevil? "Teenage Mutant Turtles" from X-Men and "Ninja" came from all of the ninjas appearing in Daredevil at the time.

They're just makin movies outta everything these days.

I had a friend who borrowed my Blankets and I told her it was my baby and to be careful with it. y'know what she did with it when I gave it to her? she buckled it up in the passenger seat of her car. hehe. ...funny...

This whole comment is about movies, basically. yeesh. I think I'm gonna try to FINALLY put together that mixed cd for you during my spring break. which. is the 1st week of April. heh... I'm sorry. but I'm just busy as shit... oigh.

So what else is new with you, man? Anything? How much left of the semester do you have?

Today's sexual position is called The Wheelbarrow Race... I have a feeling you will be able to envision that without having me describe it. heh.

Alright I'm outta here. still lotsa crap to do tonight. Take it easy, yo. I leave you with the gift of a pirate!

edited because, believe it or not, I had more to say.

[Edited on Mar 08, 2006 8:46PM]

Man, when I heard they were makin a Doom movie I got all excited. I loved the game and it was pretty damn creepy, too. I haven't seen the movie, but I heard there aren't even demons in it! DUDE! The game's basic premise is that a gate to hell was opened on Mars or somethin! It pisses me off when movies change the formula of whatever they adapted.

FOR EXAMPLE. Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow. I like a lot of Tim Burton's stuff. not all of it. but quite a bit. And I love Johnny Depp, but they TOTALLY changed Ichabod Crane's character in that movie. Have I already ranted about this? I feel like I have. If not, let me know, so I can complete my ranting. hehe.

I kinda go on rants & tirades when I'm drunk sometimes. but they're usually more humorous and not in the least bit scary. heh. my friends can vouche for me on that.

Ultraviolet's been advertised to hell over here too. except I think they've kinda died down. When I was in Germany they had posters of crap ALL OVER the damn place. I mean ALL. THE FUCK. OVER. One after another after another after another, right next to each other and going for blocks. It was really weird and insane. whoa. I just checked rottentomatoes.com and it has 4 good reviews and 45 bad reviews. hrmmm. perhaps I WONT see it then. You at all interested in The Hills Have Eyes? supposed to be another gore-fest. shit. the last movie I think I saw in the theater was fuckin Aeon Flux. or The Squid & the Whale.

but yeh. V for Vendetta. yeh. I'd like to see him more as a dark, sneaky vigilante. almost like the bad guy (since that's what the government thinks of him). but then he's supposedly the philosophical and political hero. so I guess you can't have the "hero" be lurking around and slitting people's throats after sneaking into their houses...

okay okay okay. I have to ask this, though... do you say "New Joy-zey?" hehe. "bolth"? "bowlth"? hrmmm. Y'know, I've never actually heard anyone pronounce "what" with an "H" outside of a movie. I'm just sayin. I guess I have kinduva deep voice and a commanding one at that when I'm teaching at school or karate, but I can be a bit of a fast-talking, slurring mumbler in conversation sometimes. I also gesticulate, but not enough, I don't think, to be annoying (but apparently enough for people to comment on occasionally). me likes to sing, too (but not with company). and I don't think I'm too bad. but deep deep down and honestly and candidly....I'm shit. heh.

I dunno why I'm telling you all that crap. They're just things you can't really experience via comments & IM & e-mail and such. but perhaps you will someday know firsthand!

oh man. I suggest you read The Giver sometime. I do enjoy it. It's kind of a 1984 for young adults. and even though it IS a book for like, 14 yr olds or whatever, it's still one of my favorites. it'll probably take you two days to read. goes quick.

I don't think I explained the book/music association thing correctly. Okay, you know when you listen to music and it reminds you of a certain time in your life? That's what I kind of meant. There was a time when I was reading The Giver and I basically listened to OK Computer the whole time while I was reading it. and it just fit so well with the book. Now whenever I read The Giver I think of OK computer and whenever I listen to OK Computer I think of The Giver. I have the same kind of thing with a Marilyn Manson song and American Gods by Neil Gaiman. and a chain gang song from the O Brother Where Art Thou soundtrack and Beloved by Toni Morrison. and some Bush songs while I was reading Aftermath by Mr. Reading Rainbow himself, Lemar Burton. They're just songs I listened to ALOT during the time WHILE I was reading a book and they just seemed to go together so well in mood or tone or in content. I dunno. maybe I'm just weird...?

I haven't really watched a whole lot of the new Ninja Turtle cartoon. I dunno how close it is to the original comic. do you know? Apparently they all wore the same red mask and didn't have a specific color for each turtle. I remember a time when Saturday Morning Cartoons were cooooool. Now they all suck donkey balls. OR COCK BALLS! yes. It's all anime. bleh. anime's fine. but. enough's enough! There's like not ONE cartoon that ISN'T anime these days. And most of the animation sucks, anyway! ugh. I feel a rant comin on so I'll just stop...

I got a lot pent up in me, dammit! heh.

only four more weeks left of student teaching
only four more weeks left of student teaching
only four more weeks left of student teaching
only four more weeks left of student teaching

tonight, I bowl! I hope. DAMMIT. bowling sounds mighty fine right about now. sounds like some good clean fun.

well, hope you enjoy your weekend, whatever it is you may be doing. catchya on da flipside, suckah!

edited cuz I wanted to add something here & there. that's why I seldom write entries (aside from student teaching). I'm never fully satisfied with the finished product and I keep having to go back and change something around.

[Edited on Mar 10, 2006 4:35PM]

3 foot cardboard sperm
lol, you gotta post pics of you riding it or something

Well I should really be writing my weekly student teaching reflection and making a lesson because I won't have much time to do it tomorrow due to a karate tournament. but. guess what I'm doing instead?? yeah. writing my good friend Kim a comment. hehe.

but yes! comment fixes! Like I said earlier when you went home, I went through withdrawals. Honestly, I missed them.

man, if I ever come to New York for some freak reason, I'm totally hangin with ya. fake art show that's complete with (boxed!) wine, cheese, and pseudo-pretentious college students? library hide & seek? spray painting crap on buildings? Either there's no one like that around here or I'm just hangin with the wrong crowd.

myspace evil, eh? do I sense bad blood and falling out with a possible former special person? that's a rhetorical question. but I enjoy how on myspace you can peruse through bands and music without having to pay anything. but SOME DAY I'll have to check out this limewire. The main reason I haven't so far is that, uhm, I'm lazy. heh.

Y'know, I actually did this poster project thing in college where I presented statistics and reasons for the decline in average sperm count in men. I didn't make a huge sperm out of cardboard, though. perhaps I should have. and drawn sunglasses on him or something.

Have you ever seen Old Boy? It's a Korean movie and it is just...I dunno. I dunno how to describe it. brutal? yeah. I don't want to give too much of it away, but a guy breaks out of a confinement (not exactly prison) and searches for the person who put him in there. While in his confinement he becomes a major hardass and there's a twist at the end that makes logical sense but you never see it coming. cripes. Justin Lin, the guy whose interview may still be at the bottom of this screen, is supposed to be directing a remake of it. dear lord. Not only is that a horrible idea (in my opinion), but if he gets even CLOSE to the original story, there'll probably be a moral outrage in America. AND THE STORY IS SO IMPORTANT! I'm gonna shut up about it now.

Your old user pic. ah yes I remember. I didn't know it said "giraffe" though. Twas a bit too small for me to read.

the parent/teacher conferences went relatively okay. more boring than anything, actually. but there was at least one that really touched my heart. some kids just really get the shaft...

you enjoying your photography class? I wish I would've taken more photo classes. -sigh- oh well. I should get back to writing or to bed or somethin. Have yerself a good'n, cockball. <-- he got hit in the face with a cockball. he needs some lovin.

Banshee's a jenday conure...kind of a meduim sized parrot

[Edited on Jan 20, 2006 2:10PM]

mrah! you're back! and I'm back! no more damn dial-up! ooooooh life is sweet.

Forgive me if our long ass comments become less frequent. I love our long ass comments but as the weeks go on I'm going to be busy as shit. If you did not know, fecal matter is, in fact, quite busy.

The reason, of course, is that I'm now starting student teaching and blah blah blah it makes me all anxious yadda yadda yadda I'm pissed at my placement blah blah blah I have no semi-nice clothes to wear. I only have extremely nice clothes or street clothes, neither of which are recommended to be worn.

So what HAVE you been up to, yo? How was your break? and all that generic stuff that everybody asks but I'm genuinely interested in? heh.

What's new? how're the guys treatin ya? Any more library hide & seek? And you still have to e-mail me on that recurring dream about lavatories.

I started reading Bret Easton Ellis' latest book, Lunar Park, with the little free time I have. I'm only 30 pages into it but so far so good. It's NOT EXACTLY autobiographical, but he says in it that Rules of Attraction was written with really no point or moral to it at all. heh. That's kinda disheartening, but I still wanna read it. And like I said, since Lunar Park isn't EXACTLY autobiographical, what he said about Rules of Attraction could very well be a load of malarkey. Yes, malarkey. I've recently become a grandfather who uses old, out-dated terms.

So when's that Bacchae play supposed to be performed at your school? I bought a copy of it but have yet to read it.

You discover any new bands lately or anything? My friend, over the break, handed me about 20 cds that I all uploaded onto my computer. I'm gradually sifting through it all. heh. oof. there's alot there.

Okay well I suppose that should be about it, eh? I leave you with a picture from the X-Men 3 movie that I seem to be obsessed with but am extremely anxious about. heh. The lady in the middle of the picture is supposed to be Callisto, leader of the Morlocks. And I dunno this for sure, but I think the woman on the right is Psylocke!! I think...



by the by, didja hear Bryce Dallas Howard is playing Gwen Stacy in Spider-Man 3? We got a redhead playin a blonde (Howard's Gwen Stacy) and a blonde playin a redhead (Dunst's Mary Jane). how peculiar.

gruh. edited cuz the pic doesn't always show. If it doesnt, go here: http://superherohype.com/news/x-mennews.php?id=3786

[Edited on Jan 21, 2006 2:43PM]

Didja get that IM about Psylocke being Magneto's assassin in X3? badass shit, eh? I'm excited. Hope you had a sock rockin New Year's.

i already did!

how are you sugar?

i'm planning a trip to the bronx zoo in mid jan. would you be interested? it'll be fun!!!!!

Ahhhh that sucks so bad! I finish work on the 21st, I'm feeling lucky!!!

Yeah, he's always stealing my iPod so I decided to put an end to it lol. I'm so jealous though, even though i have a 40G one, it's a 4th gen so no colour etc (I love it though) and he's gona lord his little black beauty over my white giant heh

♥

you's the shit.

I'm not sure what he is either...but I think we should join him and HACK THE CORPORATE REALITY!!!!! Ahem.
Little goth girl is awesome too!

I know that pic was disturbing, thats why I put it in the spoilers, incase people didn't want to look at it again heh.

♥

NO! You made me with googly eyes so I wouldn't be able to read it!

oh man. sorry for not responding again for so long. it's the week before finals. busy with papers & such. I should actually be reading right now for a class I have in an hour and a half. oigh.

I hope you're doing alright in the final-days-of-the-semester department. oof.

Y'know, there's an increasing number of beggars here in Minneapolis. Just a few years ago there weren't so many, but now they're standing at the end of just about every exit ramp. Y'know, we have a pretty damn good system to get people off the streets here. You think they'd utilize that instead of standing out in the cold.

When I was in Krakow, Poland I was in this main commons area and there was this gypsy family playing some music. The most memorable scene was the patriarch, who was shriveled and legless in a wheelchair, and possibly even blind, but still managed to play the guitar or something. Obviously I gave them a few coins. When I got back to the states I talked to this guy who had actually lived in Poland for years and he said that that gypsy family was LOADED!! LOADED!! but they present themselves to be so poor. hrmmmm. They sure as hell fooled me. I guess when you got enough cash you can just sit around and play music for naive tourists...

Hooters as Denny's?? I believe that some people think that but christ. Let's open a restaurant called Package. How does that sound? Guys in short shorts will come around & take order and no tables can be above crotch level.

heh. yeah. that bodysuit thing. oh man. you pretty much summed up my thoughts & feelings when you said "my mind is racing with possibilities for deviation." Couldn't have put it better myself. -eyes glaze over & mind drifts to "elsewhere"-

I just saw the preview for the X3 movie. uhhhhh. not sure what to think. It doesn't look bad, but I know the story is going to be crap city. As far as I know, it's going to be very similar to X2. I dont even know if you dig X-Men. heh. I just thought I'd tell ya.

Anyway, back to reading VERY early criticism on Shakespeare. wooooooo. Hope things arent goin too crazy over there in the Land of Kim. peace out, suckah (aka cockball).

edited cuz me know no good grammar oftentimes.

[Edited on Dec 07, 2005 2:39PM]

I don't necessarily avoid the internet during or around finals, but when it comes to responding to stuff then yeah I do kinda grow a bit lax. I, like you, often use the internet for the occasional diversion from shit I REALLY should be doin. heh. I'm hungry dammit! I just realized that.

I hear about beggars who stand outside of the stock market place. and shit. the stock market has a good day? what's a few twenties or even hundreds to a guy who did pretty well? You just got yourself one helluva handout, knowwhatahmsayin?

Well I cant think of anything that could be congruent with breasts that a guy could display for a restaurant. My sentences are becoming overly convoluted and complicated, so I apologize if they're hard to follow. heh. Maybe a restaurant called Pipes? & it's just a bunch of guys with bigass muscles walkin around? -shrug-

you know what I heard? Gambit aint gonna be in X3. at all. not even a cameo. they cut his ass out. isn't it sad? doesnt that suck ace? I sure think it does. so who do we have instead? OH. ONLY STACY X. a fucking prostitute who seduces people by letting out pheromones. what the fuck. This X3 thing just smells all fishy to me. I have a feeling its gonna suck and I REALLY REALLY REALLY don't want it to. -sigh-

ah cripes! I just remembered that I have to do an online peer evaluation for a class! I gotta skiddadle! catchya later cockball.

-vamoose!-
