Free write

so...i just started writing...and well...haha check this out.


It’s like all these lights man. Like a fucking evangelical holy spirit...and then you see it. The fucking ball gags, made out of twenty dollar bills. It’s fucked up. So I turns to Mikey right, and I says, “Hey mikey do you like it?” Like the commercial you know.
So anyway, there we are surrounded by the carnal papacy, me trying to bring a little humor to the situation, and Mikey just turns his head ever so slowly and with all seriousness says “Will you please be quite I’m trying to watch my programs.”
“FUCKING PROGRAMS! this aint no fucking "all our former glory" or some other macroon-eating stay-at-home-mom soaps, this is fucking sacrilege!!” I said.
“Sacrilege or not, what else do you think we are going to watch, being in the current situation that we are?”
“Well, you could fucking close your eyes for the good lords sake!”
“Well, I don’t see YOU shutting your eyes….hey see if you can hit that bag of chips with you foot. Try and knock it over here I’m starving.”
“Bag of fucking chips! Are you out of your mind….our Good lord is being taken to the curb by Mr. Money bags himself, in twelve different angles, all about our heads, and you want a fucking bag of chips. Did you not get your second breakfast today tubby or wa–“
It’s about this point that our little intellectual conversation is interrupted by the sound of metal on metal, the door was opening. A big cast iron number, with one of those little eye slits. The ones you always see in those movies with the mad scientists. And then, wouldn’t you know it…one of them pops its head through the doorway.
“Are we having fun gentlemen?” the question had all this dead space behind it like he expected us to give a lot of thought to our answers. He smiled with his eyes, I hate that.
“HOW THE FUCK DO YOU THINK WE ARE DOING!!!” I shook my chains for emphasis
“Tut tut, no need to be rude…and to think I took all that time and effort to make you a special desert.” It was like Houdini himself was there because all of a sudden this creep with a bad comb over, too much gel, and the fucking smiling eyes pulls out two of the largest, most tantalizing, morsels of cake you ever laid your eyes on. I will admit I even caught my self drooling. Mikey was probably drowning over where he was. So…yeah, then that guys smiles again this time adding his teeth, Which was worse because it was one of those full face smiles—All teeth and the cheeks going right up under those fucking eyes, which were still smiling themselves.
And then he slithers.
Yeah like a fucking snake. No, no, you ever seek a gecko? How they move, on walls and stuff? That was this guy…creeping along the wall holding to slices of chocolate cake smiling…blinding white teeth and those fucking bright green smiling eyes.

And the tao flows...

Currently Listening To: A.R.E Weapons- Into the Night


So (and i know i have said this before) but im going to try to write in this blog weekly if not daily. I want to keep writing, even if it is online, at least it is writing. So in comes the blog and outgoes my recent thoughts. cut n' dry.


I finished reading Jarhead. I saw the movie, and while on its own its pretty average...nothing too new and the acting wasnt the most superb. Yet it conveyed a message...at least it had that going for it.

The movie however comes nowhere near the scope of the book. I highly suggest finding a copy of it somewhere and reading it. Perhaps it is because i know people involved in the Marine Core or maybe my anti-war leanings made me so enthralled with this book, but i have trouble following that through.

Jarhead doesnt have any real agenda, no lofty goals. I belive Virgina Wolfe said something about good fiction being nothing more than a story about a woman holding a garden party. Ordinary people. Jarhead delivers this. Its a raw, uncensored look into the mind of a Jarhead. Before and After reactions. Startling revalations into the horribleness of War that i dont think we could get from a few talking heads on cross fire.

In the book, Swofford mentions that he realized that he wasnt fighting this war for his country, or himself, or his fellow marines. Just the collected intrerest of a few rich men.

Maybe we should consider that thought a bit more in regards to our current histroy, or maybe not. Afterall im just a commie-pinko who wants to take all your property and money.

heh,

well whatever im going to go eat ice cream.

later days.

You have a good sense of humor and love to have fun.

In relationships you may turn intimacy into an all-encompassing pursuit. You are very aware of what those around you are thinking and doing. Your people skills allow you to make friends instantly and make almost anyone comfortable. You tend to idealize your relationships. You like your relationships to be very intense--you want to feel everything. The warmth and affection you give others is very deep and genuine.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Id like to point out that one of people listed under the famous people section is none other than Dr.Seuss. fuckin' A. haha.

i thought it was cool.

Dr.Seuss, that guy is amazing. He wrote children's books, yes, but they also provided satircal social commetary (Butter Battle Book, Lorax, etc.) And doing it though the guize of childrens literature is fantastic. I ask you, who can trust more the innocent matter-of-fact wisdom of a childs perspective or the opinons of someone who has been chewed up and spit out by the endlessly churning machine of society and progress.

All i am saying is that i trust the person who keeps asking questions, rather than giving me answers.

The above statement is begging me to leap on a tangent about education, but perhaps i shall leave that for another day.

in the meantime you can gripe and moan and ill be over that-a-way overturning rocks with my nephew.

Oh and without futher a-do...Music time:

Yip-Yip (Dualing Synths. Interesting eletronica/indrustrial/noise schtuff)


Belaire
( A Little Pop-y, A Little Indie, A Little Awesome. Plus they do a cover of a Kayne West song [through the wire] which gives them bonus points.)

Grizzly Headaches

Listening To- Architecture in Helsiniki- Scissor Paper Rock

So...yeah. I really think i did a number on my lower back (?lumbar?) playing fumble rumble yesterday. Whatever though, im sure it will heal, and i had a hell of alot of fun.

I also saw Grizzly man.

Now i dont know if you have any experience with this film or not, but let me just tell you right now that while the film itself is very interesting the actual "Grizzly Man" is, well, a bit of a whack job.

There is one sceen where Tim (Grizzly man) is angry and overwhelmed that adult bears were eating their young, and so, he decides to stick around and "help them"

- i really loved the comment made in the film that it seems like tim has forgoten there are predators...because he has. These bears were STARVING. Enought to eat their own young. That is a clear sign to me, as well as it should be to anyone else, that you might not want to stick around too long.

There was also a sceen where he had tampered with a stream to provide a place for samons to run. excuse me...YOU DONT DO THAT. Tampering with nature in the first place is what got us in this god afull mess...tim needs to realize that letting things take their course in nature is what to do...nature knows what its doing...its pretty experienced.

Please don't misunderstand me hear. I can realize that Tim thought he had a noble purpose...but he was ovbiously disillusioned by a perfect utopian view of nature. I love animals. Im a vegetarian (would be vegan if i wasnt up a school, where its hard enough to be vegetarian). But i certainly dont belive i can go into the wild and befriend animals. I can respect them sure, but there is still the boundary of "if they were hungry enough they could and would kill me."

Its horrible that the bears are being poached for sport and profit...but you have to CHANGE SOCIETY before you can stop that. Running around pretending your lord of the bears isnt going to help...if anything it will bring more harm to the bears by teaching them humans are not to be feared.

sorry about this rant. Tim's actions got under my skin. anyway in conclusion i would say see the movie. Its very interesting, and i would love to hear what you think.

Thoughts and superpowers

"A God that wants you to kill is a God that wants you to Die"

This is something my friend's mom said on the topic of "Just" War...

*shrugs* i dunno its just a very nice sentiment and i wanted to share it and hopefully make you think.

I think Quakers follow something along the lines of: Harming another living thing is essentially harming God himself

i can't help but agree. (including all the little creatures we would like to see as beneath our notice!! ;> )

oh, btw...
