May. 14th, 2007 @ 03:36 pm An appology/warning to all the girls in my life
I have been doing some thinking and some reading and I have decided that, until I change my mind, I will never buy a diamond. Perhaps very small diamonds, the sort used to give sparkle to something, but never a large expensive diamond. This is because I have come to the conclusion that diamonds are THE biggest scam ever. I know everyone knows this but it just bothers me too much to have anything to do with it.

Now I know some of you will be saying "If you're so worried about evil corporations why don't you stop using gasoline." or "Stop being a cheap ass and buy me a ring." Allow me to explain. Oil is a scam too, completely evil in every way but, the usefulness of oil is not completely fabricated so I will continue to support big petrol until I have other, non hippie like, choices.

All of this does not mean I will not buy my girl an engagement ring when the time comes. Engagement rings are a marketing thing but I can live with that. However, the ring will not have a diamond. When conflict emeralds and rubies become a big issue I will rethink things but until then I have no trouble with other minerals and all expensive metals are fine by me.

I am sorry if anyone out there was planning to date me just for some carbon crystals, perhaps I could find it in my heart to pardon man made diamonds, though I know for some of you it's just not the same thing.

I'm in one of those moods where posting song lyrics seems like a good idea but I realize that the words of a song without knowing the music just isn't the same. So, if you feel like something newish try to find Young Ned of The Hill. I know if you type it into google you can see the words and hear a short clip. It's the first link you get so it's easy to find.

The song is about Oliver Cromwell and his killing of Irish Catholics. Normally I'm the kind of guy who would favor England over Ireland but Cromwell also overthrew the king so I can hate him without feeling like a traitor. Isn't life grand?


Also if I'm totally wrong in my history you can tell me but please don't make me feel too stupid ok?

Jan. 2nd, 2007 @ 09:11 am The far away year of 2000 and 7...
I don't like living in the future, it's too disappointing.
I know this is a little late for a new-year post but I don't have much to say so I guess it doesn't matter. This year I crossed over with a hangover at my heels.

Thought for the new year: I'm working on an idea for a HIV cure...but so far it seems about as deadly as the disease...also I lack the resources to test it.

Ok, I know lyrics are annoying but anyone who hasn't listened to Rasputina's "Hunter's Kiss" should.


It's a sad story about a deer and a man
A romantic scene from a lullaby.
In a clearing green, where his eyes met mine.
I was frozen motion. Oh! His bow was raised.
Then the fleeting notion-that my life he'd save.

But I saw it coming, flying through the air.
Feathered backside humming. Miss me, hit me where
Where it will only hurt me, not a mortal wound.
Leave me lying dirty, someone would find me soon.

I have never been like this before.
Felt my body sinking to the grassy floor
I have never known a love like this.
Felt the flaming arrows of the Hunter's Kiss.

My life is not mine.
Like a dog or a wife.
He has taken his time.
He has taken my life.

I could see the steaming of his cloudy breath.
No, I was not dreaming.
I was next to death.
As I lay there twitching, then my legs he tied.
There was nothing missing on the day I died.

Current Location: Dorm
Things that have come my way:

I had to reformat my computer, not looking forward to putting all my music back on it.

Made a cast of my hand and got stuck, had to cut it off with a stake knife

Found a drunk guy in the parking lot and kicked him to make sure he was responsive and didn't need EMS

Broke my car and am not sure if I can drive it or not

Feeling lonely because my room mate got real friends and doesn't talk to me anymore

I miss my SAYF friends and listening to rasputina doesn't help at all
