Happy Happy Joy Joy

There are some people that always put me in a good mood. Most of those, I don't talk to anywhere near often enough. I got to talk to one of the best for several hours today. So I'm feeling a little squirrely.

"Is this gonna be a stand up fight, Sir, or another bug hunt?" -Hudson

"I say we take off, nuke the site from orbit, it's the only way to be sure." -Hicks

"The is so... Nuts." -Burke

"My mommy said there are no monsters, no real ones, but there are." -Newt

"It's a trick, get an axe." -Ashe

"Do you want me to hurt you?" -Miss Parker

"Somebody wake up Hicks." -Apone

"Well, you have my total attention now. I'm not quite sure if I've got your though." -Lara

"This activity is truly unproductive." -Seven of Nine

"Allright, we waste 'em." -Hicks

Advice

Sometimes I need to remember that not everybody asked my opinion and keep my yap shut. And sometimes I need to stop, step back, and apply a shovelful of that advice to my own life.

I'm not a leaf in the wind kind of person and I'll never be. It would be silly to even try that. I'm that guy who shows up early, unlocks the door, and fires up the lights. And I'm the guy who stays behind, cleans up the mess, turns out the lights, and makes sure the door gets locked. I can complain about it, but it isn't gonna change.
And why should it? Somebody has to do those things, and frankly, I can. I do a lot of things other people don't, simply because I can. None of it's glamorous, but neither am I.


-Subject Change-
If you have *two* sizes of a thing, why do you call one of them Medium and the other Large? It seems silly to me.

Memorial Day

We're a fairly young country, just a little over two hundred years. In that time we've been involved in a dozen wars, and in those wars three and a half million of us didn't come home.


"It is rather for us the living, we here be dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion--that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth." -- Abraham Lincoln, 1863

Ship of Fools

So now we're chasing the immigration issue like a happy dog chasing a stick in the park. Are we that blind to what's really going on?
You want to make a start on the immigration issue? Start enforcing the laws we already have. It's against the law to employ illeagal immigrants. Take the people (citizens already) who break this law, prosecute some of them, toss them into Federal Prison, and see if there's a shift in the situation.
In the mean time, can the rest of us get back to issues like war, crime, debt, and all the other silly things we have yet to deal with?

Teenage Wasteland

Song the idiot was after:

Baba O'Riley, The Who


Out here in the fields
I fight for my meals
I get my back into my living
I don't need to fight
To prove I'm right
I don't need to be forgiven

Don't cry
Don't raise your eye
It's only teenage wasteland



Sally ,take my hand
Travel south crossland
Put out the fire
Don't look past my shoulder
The exodus is here
The happy ones are near
Let's get together
Before we get much older

Teenage wasteland
It's only teenage wasteland
Teenage wasteland
Oh, oh
Teenage wasteland
They're all wasted!

Red Rider

Caller 2: "How about Red Rider, Lunatic Fringe?"
DJ: "Awesome tune! I'll put it on next."



Lunatic fringe
I know you're out there
You're in hiding
And you hold your meetings
We can hear you coming
We know what you're after
We're wise to you this time
We won't let you kill the laughter.

Lunatic fringe
In the twilight's last gleaming
This is open season
But you won't get too far


We know you've got to blame someone
For your own confusion
But we're on guard this time
Against your final solution

We can hear you coming
(We can hear you coming)
No you're not going to win this time
We can hear the footsteps
(We can hear the footsteps)
Way out along the walkway
Lunatic fringe
We know you're out there
But in these new dark ages
There will still be light

An eye for an eye;
Well before you go under...
Can you feel the resistance?
Can you feel the thunder?

Yeah, I don't know what that's about. I don't make these things up, but it's Penny day today.

The Pretenders

Oh, Why You Look So Sad?
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Don’t be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
’cause I’ve seen the dark side too
When the night falls on you
You don’t know what to do
Nothing you confess
Could make me love you less

I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you

So if you’re mad, get mad
Don’t hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey, what you got to hide?
I get angry too
Well I’m a lot like you
When you’re standing at the crossroads
And don’t know which path to choose
Let me come along
’cause even if you’re wrong

I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I’ll never desert you
I’ll stand by you

And when...
When the night falls on you, baby
You’re feeling all alone
You won’t be on your own

I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you

I’ll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I’ll never desert you
I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you

Repeat Offenders

(Okay, that's just me being goofy again, I don't find any of you offensive.)

There are people who keep coming back here, most of them are in the links over there. I keep going there as well. I figure as long as they still list me in their links, it's okay to stop by and even post a twisted turn of phrase or two.

But it looks like there are a few people who keep stopping by here that I've never heard from. That's perfectly cool with me. Not everybody is a stand-up-and-talk-to-the-crowd kind of person. But it leads me to wonder what brings them back. I wonder if it's the things I have to say or the way I say them. And what really bugs me is if they wander off, I'll never know if they got bored, got busy with life, or got annoyed.

Oh, well, I guess if I was really worried about annoying people I don't know, I never would have started this. (or half the other stuff I do)

I'm a repeat offender. I repeat, I will offend again. :-)

Page Rank

It's kind of a shame that we have to play the system to get anywhere and that one big engine has a corner on that market. Maybe the open source community will come up with an alternative. That would be cool. In the mean time, we have to go out trolling for links if we want to rise towards the top. Oh, well.

Anyway, I don't feel too badly about a good solid 4. (Not here, for those of you that will look it up.)

Real Life?

Reading other people's Blogs gets me to wondering. You get a feeling for people, who they are, what they're about from reading them. I wonder though, if they'd be like I imagine in real life. I have to remind myself that some of these people speak in voices and with accents that they don't have in my head. Would they have gestures and mannerisms that would seem odd to me? Would they laugh more or less than I imagine? Do they fidgit? Are they calm?
I guess it boils down to the question, are the people I get along with electronically the kind of people I'd hang out with in regular life? And if not, what does that say about the way I pick my friends? Maybe I should more interested in what people think and say than how they say it. I think I do a prettty fair job of that, but maybe I'll pay more attention now. Who knows what I'll catch myself doing?

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

Too much TV?

TV commercials are always louder than the program. Some channels are much worse than others. I don't know what genius thinks that this endears me to or MAKES ME WANT TO OWN ANY OF THESE PRODUCTS!
Sometimes I just change the channel. (and not back)

If we're picking teams, I want to be on Terry's. I'd much rather play with him than against him. Too bad he didn't win.

Oh, happy mothers day to all the moms out there.

Here it comes.

Are people not curious anymore, or just not adventurous?
Maybe that's not the thing at all, maybe the standard I'm using is abnormal.

Okay, I just took a look with google and got a lot of cell phones. I wonder if they would sell as many if people could convert the number into decimal?

"This machine will have eyes, ears, and a voice."


I can't get this phrase out of my head. It lingers there like something from another reality, or future life. It seems to have some personal meaning or connection just outside my grasp. It's both intriguing and frustrating at the same time. I hope it makes sense soon.


"This machine will have eyes, ears, and a voice."

Brainless

I was someplace the other day where they have cable TV and I happened to catch part of an episode of Trading Spaces. The brunette designer woman is an idiot. She had these people painting the furniture really tacky bright colors and fastening it to the ceiling. I kid you not. While they're sitting there marveling at what they've done, a glass comes unglued from the upside-down dining set and crashes into their midst. Flying glass = cool.
Then the couple that lives there comes home to see it. The guy thinks it's kind of cool, the girl is un-thrilled. Completely. Oh, did I mention that the walls are painted flat black?
After watching this train wreck I've come to the conclusion that if this designer woman ever comes within 100 feet of where I live I'm looking for my ammo box. (Okay, I wouldn't really do her harm, but keep her the hell away from me, okay?)

Impressed

I was looking around one of those sites where people post their pictures and try to meet the (you fill in the blank) of their dreams. I'm impressed with how many lonely porn stars put up pictures under unknown names. (Yeah, I'm admitting to reconizing some nude models and porn stars. I'm not obsessed, I just remember waaay too much stuff. For example escape velocity from Earth for ballistic flight is 11.23 kilometers per second. Pi is 3.14159265 The square root of 2 is 1.41421 I know, I know. I'll quit now)

Commercials

Some of them are funny and entertaining, but most of them seem to think I'm stupid. That's never struck me as a good way to sell things. I think consumers are much smarter than advertisers and marketing people give them credit for.

On another note, I'm trying to come up with some rules to the word verification game. Any ideas? I think this could catch on. Should there be points and scoring? It would have to be an honor system largely. I suppose one could track down all of somebody's comments and such, but how can you tell if they took the first one or kept refreshing until they got a good one? Anybody?




I think this will be a long week.

Bloglect

Seems I've been reading other people's blogs and posting comments (even having *gasp* conversations) and have been kind of neglecting to put anything pithy or original here. Just copy and paste. Woe is me, I'll try to do better in the coming days. (I said *try* didn't I?)

Nap time.

Good night John-Boy.
