The Good Sumaritan
Posted 16 years agoI worked all day today, seeing as it is the last "real week" before the holiday blockbusters begin. This is all starting with Twilight, and I can honestly say that anyone with pre-bought tickets and everyone else going to see it can fornicate themselves with a rusty flagpole.
I digress.
With a paper to complete, little sleep, and no day of rest since the show "Inspecting Carol" ended (there will be NO rest until next tuesday....argh.) I desperately wanted to get my happy ass home and finish my obligations before sleep.
Lo and behold, as the road turns into country with a sharp turn, I noticed a car awkwardly parked on one side of the road. I was in the turn lane and was about to dismiss it when something told me to go get a look. I got the light and pulled forward to be flagged down by two black guys a little older than me. One said that another car ran them off the road. They asked if I had any chains, I said no, and then they asked if I could help them push the car out. It's been raining three days straight and they were axle deep in the mud on the shoulder. I helped them as much as possible, even taking the wheel on occassion, and while they continued to burn the rubber from their tires and use hubcaps (?) for traction, I went out and tried to wave down someone. No luck.
About five minutes later a man with his two teen sons in a large truck stopped and he asked us if we needed chains. After a few minutes of trying to find the right bar to hook to, the guy hooked them up and pulled them out. We could hear sirens in the distance and he told us to hurry and get out. My car was parked and the lights were on, so unfortunately I had to sit there and talk to the officer that'd come to inspect the wreck. After thanking three apathetic patrol cars and ambulance, I was able to drive home. I'm going to write a letter to the editor about the good sumaritan that helped the two men when I was unable.
Anyway, paper is not done. Gonna go Evil Knievel and get up early to finish it.

Just because we don't need more wars (a rant)
Posted 16 years agoWar is an inevitable aspect of human nature. Even before we were able to walk upright our genetic ancestors fought over land, resources, mates, and control. As time wore on and ideas began to evolve, we started fighting over who was right and who deserved to rule the masses. Religion still dominates the motives behind wars, yet as of recent times the needs of resources (masked behind need of protection) and needs of ending a tyranny (masked behind need of liberation, masked behind need of resources). War exists on every level; domestic, national, international, civil. Today our country remains divided in many ways over a few simple disagreements- even Lincoln could wax nostalgic.
But where is the fairness to call it a war, a set of honorable rules a millennia in the making, when one side clearly is in the omnipotent control? What is the point in pouring billions of dollars of taxpayer's money every year trying to force an end to inevitable actions? We could wage war on the Climate- we'd freeze the equator, we'd melt the ice caps. Would it change the way the climate works? Of course. On the other hand, the climate would continue to go about its business, doing what has been done and always will be done.
I'm talking about the WAR ON DRUGS
The War in Iraq has been going on for 5 years now.
The War in Afghanistan has been going on for about 8 years.
The War in Vietnam lasted about 12 years
The War on Drugs has gone on for 72 YEARS and continues today with no end in sight.
The War on Drugs is a government sponsored war against drug use, distribution, and all those involved. It turns the 98lb junkie hooked on the world's most addictive substance into a criminal. It turns the family man who smokes one-hitters after work into a worthless stoner and criminal. It promises to stop the society of low-income drug users, only to end up arresting each person inevitably involved the same society they were born into. The War picks the substances that are deemed the largest threats to society and youth, while equal or more dangerous substances are allowed and marketed with minimal responsibility.
Let's face it- Drugs have largely been a part of human nature as far back as war. Jesus and his Disciples drank wine (ethyl alcohol is a drug), the tribes of South America enjoyed the Cacao plant (in the leaves are cocaine- in the seeds are chocolate- both are considered drugs). Hemp (derived from the dried leaves and stalks of the cannabis plant) has been used for fabric, medicine, food, fuel, and paper.
Even with the Montana Meth Project, which displays exaggerated and horrific scenes of meth users and the effects of use, people continue to do meth. Even with schools requiring D.A.R.E programs to be taught to children to stop from the usage of drugs, cigarrettes, and alcohol, many preteen and teenagers begin doing drugs, smoking cigarrettes, and drinking alcohol long before the legal age.
The problem is- drugs and all aforementioned substances are addictive. They create physical or psychological dependencies, on occasion both types can occur. A recovering nicotine addict will tell you the hardest period is two years after quiting when cravings become so strong that the senses are affected, mood is altered, and many will relapse. Even smokers that have been clean for thirty years could take a drag on a cigarrette and instantly be addicted. Alcohol drinkers account for some of the top vehicular homicides in the country, and a majority of domestic disputes stem from those who drink alcohol. Alcohol kills brain cells, damages the liver and pancreas, and is addictive enough to have a disease named from it.
So why is the only law against cigarettes to stop those under 18 years of age to possess it? Why is alcohol only illegal for those under 21 and those who drive with a BAC of over %0.08?
Because-tobacco and alcohol are both multi-million dollar industries. Tobacco companies fun "Truth" to appear more caring for the people affected annually by tobacco addictions. Yet they continue to use one of the most addictive substances (nicotine) and place it in with equally addicting, poisonous chemicals (formaldehyde, arsenic, carbon monoxide, ammonia) that keeps its customers from quitting easily. Alcohol companies add "please drink responsibly" in the last millisecond of their ad, hoping to contradict the last thirty seconds of attractive young drinkers having the time of their lives. Thousands die annually as the result of alcohol abuse, and thousands more die from the result of drunk drivers.
These drugs are ok. So are caffeine marketed towards children to keep them wiry and excitable- and so is Ritalin to help these kids pay attention is school. High fructose corn Syrup, baked with sulfuric acid, is a drug that's fine to put in almost all known American foods out there. Prescription pills are the easiest to get and easiest to overdose on, and while the pharmaceutical companies make millions from advertising and condemning the abuse of their product, it is no great challenge to tell your doctor you're "upset" to be prescribed Percoset, or to break your leg and be prescribed Vicodin.
So, why is it that perhaps the most harmless drug (safer than nicotine) is held in the same category as the most addictive and destructive drug, Heroin?
I'm talking about Cannabis. Marijuana, Bug, Weed, Pot, Dope, Ganja, call it what you want. The fact is, Marijuana has a long and rich history and, until the start of the 20th century, was seen as a harmless and industrial handy crop. George Washington and Thomas Jefferson both required Hemp to be grown in the colonies. The first drafts of the US Constitution and Declaration of Independence were printed on hemp paper. Dens in London in the 1800s were similar to the Opium Dens of the 1700s, or the Coffee Houses of Amsterdam in the present. Hashish was used for medicinal reasons in the late 19th century.
However, at the start of the 20th century, the increase of migrant Mexican workers in southern US states began to cause problems with farmers. They noticed that most workers smoked cannabis to relax after a long day at work. The farmers said the plant made the workers crazy and gave them "superhuman strength". In 1914 a group of white men were attacked by a Mexican man in El Paso whom they claimed had smoked this "killer weed" and was driven insane. The city council passed a law to ban possession of marijuana, but because the majority of people possessing the drug were Mexican, it was more a racial than civil matter.
Hemp was a single industrial product, a trillion dollar industry, that could replace several billion dollar industry (oil, steel, timber). William Randolph Hearst, the newspaper magnate, began a smear campaign to protect his million-dollar acreage of timber. It's assumed that one acre of hemp equals 4.1 acres of timber. His friend, Harry J. Anslinger was elected to the Federal Bureau of Narcotics in 1930 and immediately began to demonize the usage of marijuana. He also owned a large deal of acreage with Hearst and hemp only threaten both men's fortunes. Ironically, although Anslinger was head of the Narcotics bureau, he was an advocate for the use of morphine in hospitals and mental institutions and became a morphine addict later in life.
However, he called Marijuana the most dangerous narcotic (?), and he financed many ads showing young people smoking marijuana, laughing insanely, fighting violently and killing themselves. He helped pass the Marijuana Tax Act of 1937, which allowed only people with government-issued stamps to grow and possess marijuana. However, the government never did issue any said stamps, thus beginning the nearly century-long prohibition of marijuana.
Well, that's enough for now.
Just know that what you think you known from Marijuana, about how it kills brain cells, causes numerous car accidents, ruins peoples lives and leads to other, harder drugs is a lie.
Anslinger contradicted himself in the 50's by saying that marijuana turned people into "pascifist, peaceful zombies", as opposed to the wild, malevolent, insane people he previously claimed it to create.
Don't support the war on drugs.

Ironic? (Update)
Posted 16 years agoYou know, all my teenage years, which coincided with the US Occupation of Iraq, I've fought against this and other wars. I've considered myself liberal, I've bought the buttons, I've had heated debates in locker rooms and rehearsal spaces. I wore a button that said "Support the Troops-End the War!"
And yet, here I am, no older than the men drafted in the 1960's, about to enlist in the United States Air Force.
Didn't see that coming.
I'd found a pamphlet on the Air Force last year and, despite the obvious single-sided mindset (they failed to mention all of the REAL jobs and called Basic Training 'an exciting challenge') something stirred. I felt the need to put some thought into it.
I did some research, talked with some veterans, and eventually forgot the whole thing.
Yet, two days ago, my father and I were eating lunch when he began to question college. My current GPA is enough to gain a scholarship, and I've gotten college credits from the Student Ambassador Program, but I still want to attend a community college to improve my math skills.
He mentioned if I'd given thought about joining the Air Force. I laughed and said I'd thought about it quite a lot, and would be willing to join in order to pay for college. I also want the physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional rehabilitation that is currently much needed. I hope to see more of the world, possibly to be in the California area to "wander in to" a studio lot and audition, achieving my REAL ambition....I'm not counting on that.
ANYWAY, my dad seemed highly supportive. My mom, however, who is much more liberal and maternal, did not seem so. I mentioned it on the phone with her and met with silence. I had to coax her back into conversation by saying it was not a done deal. She'll ease into it.
I do not support my country. I do not support my government. I do not support war or the individuals involved in producing it.
But by God, if I can get a free run of education in rough economic times, so be it.
And, hopefully, I will gain my pilot's license. Again, not counting on that.
ALSO
After reading up on the facts of high-fructose corn syrup (especially having it brewed with sulfuric acid), I did some research.
At my work we get free soda, and my cup holds 24oz. Often times it is filled with Mountain Dew. Factor in my average amounts of cups consumed (three on weekends, two on weekdays...minimum), I found out some interesting facts.
In every weekend, I drink a total of 72oz of soda, minimum.
This is equivalent to drinking an entire 2-liter. And another can of soda.
In every can of mountain dew, there are 180 calories, and about 22g of sugar. These numbers may be off, but its all hypothetical.
In 72oz, I would consume-
*1620 calories (I need about 3,000 because I am heavyset and active)
* 198g of sugar.
Well, that explains my dental problems.
Anyway, those are all the updates for now. Still continuing the "message in a bottle" series...but I assume most of you guys have tuned out to information like that

Making Limbaugh look like a Saint?
Posted 16 years agoWell, since even the Republicans outed Ann Coulter, I guess we're onto a new arch-nemesis. Glenn Beck.
If you know him, you know why I hate him. If you don't, search Youtube or online. You'll see why.
ANNNYWAY. I've started a new, noncanon series of Lost at Sea in HOPES of helping me to regain a connection with the characters.
If you've read or know of "Watership Down", chances are you've heard of "Tales of Watership Down". Just like that, this series will be short stories involving the characters, maybe introducing new ones, but none will be related and occur at varying times. Some are meant to tell stories. Some, to teach. Others, to fap to (yes!), and some to make you cry because you all seem to like it when I do that. And the teachers called me evil >:)
During this time I will also continue LAS prt.2. And, once Isthia gives birth (SPOILER ALERT) the daughter will begin to appear in the series.
Hey, I admit. I do not have the time or patience to write another 60pg story about dolphins and love and life and death and yadda yadda yadda. I wrote that when I had no friends, no obligations, no job, and for the most part no school (written in the summer). Basically it was me, my computer, and loving dolphins and their smexy ways. Now, I have a ton of things on my plate and a story just won't flow the way it used to.
But oh well. I still enjoy writing. Only now, in hopes to gain some kind of fanbase (egotistical? Maybe.) I'll be submitting short stories involving Gregory and Isthia (and soon others).
Not to worry. It won't a cutesy, cheesy spin-off like Disney does for all of their shows. I still intend to keep the same "mood", but to expand on the characters and their lives.
And, while I'm at it, my writing could use some brushing up and repair as well x).
I'll post the first of the "Message in a Bottle" series ASAP!
If you know him, you know why I hate him. If you don't, search Youtube or online. You'll see why.
ANNNYWAY. I've started a new, noncanon series of Lost at Sea in HOPES of helping me to regain a connection with the characters.
If you've read or know of "Watership Down", chances are you've heard of "Tales of Watership Down". Just like that, this series will be short stories involving the characters, maybe introducing new ones, but none will be related and occur at varying times. Some are meant to tell stories.

How's your loony bun, Benny Lava?
Posted 16 years agoFunny story. You remember the brief internet meme "Benny Lava?"
No? Well check this out.

Anyway, every once in a while an Indian Rental Agency rents out a theater and shows films from India for the benefit of our Indian-American (though usually just Indian) residents. And yes, there's a lot of them.
Just so happens, I walked into the theater because I'm probably the only person there that doesn't resent the smell and crowding they usually harbor. That, and Hindi films really interest me.
Well, I happened to walk in RIGHT when this song came on!
Needless to say I was dancing and singing the English lyrics in the corridor when a man and his little girl come out. She started giggling but the guy seemed downright pissed. It was entertaining.
No? Well check this out.

Schwagstock 42!
Posted 16 years agoI'm finally back home after attending a three-day music festival in the Ozarks of Missouri.
On September 17th I packed up camping supplies and some electronics, made a quick stop at Wal-Mart for food and entertainment (glowsticks,masks, candy, hacky sack), picked up my best friend and $650 and headed out to Missouri, a 6 hour drive from my town.
On the way down several setbacks including loose riggings, forgotten items, and faulty camera equipment, delayed us a few more hours but we finally made it to Camp Zoe. Zoe is a 600 acre campsite located 30miles from the nearest town and owned by The Schwag, a Grateful Dead tribute band. We arrived at 3:30am only to discover that the "tent" I had packed was only a rainflap. Not to mention the fact we got stuck in a sandbank on numerous occasions.
Luckily for us, however, our "neighbor" (the campsite adjacent to us) had an extra tent that had no stakes (which we had plenty) and he allowed us to use it.
The next morning we met our other neighbors- a skinny blonde townie and a fat rocker/hippie. They all hailed from Kansas City and, although somewhat older than us were fairly cool to talk to. We shared ganja and stories of our hometowns.
My friend and I spent most of the day hiking and shopping at many of the hippie stalls. We signed a petition for NORML and ate local food that was downright delicious. After meeting several new people, we finally went up to the stage to see Blue Moon Revue, a band hailing from Chicago. Afterwards we got our glowsticks and headed up to watch the Schwag perform (and they performed VERY well). We watched hippie children twirling fire hula hoops, as well as playing hacky sack and a bunch of fun hippie things. I danced up front with the Schwag while twirling a glowing LED staff, which many hippies enjoyed my display. We then saw Jah Roots, perhaps the greatest Reggae band in the United States (according to one of the original Wailers). The weather was warm but comfortable.
The second day I spent most of my time sitting in the river reading "Call of the Wild", chatting and making deals with different groups of people to walk by. I hiked up to watch the Open Mic performance, wearing a white shirt that I meant for people to sign (it said "Color me Schwag" and I wore permanent markers on my hemp necklace. Needless to say, this made me very popular). The rain made a few colors run but was still readable. I met a lot more people and eventually brought them back to our tent to have a good time. Eventually I charged my LED staff and waited for darkness to fall. It began to rain even harder once the Schwag and Jah Roots played for the second time. I stood in the rain at the front of the Jah Roots concert for 2hrs, and I must say it was the greatest performance I had ever seen. I got a few signatures from the band members. During the time a helicopter came to airlift some injured hikers, only to have a green laser pointed at the pilot. When the DJ made an announcment and condemned the person responsible, the whole camp erupted in applause. The Jah concert was heavy with glowsticks, some people collecting two mass handfuls and throwing them all throughout the crowd. Unfortunately the encore, a Superjam with the Schwag and all the other bands playing that weekend was cancelled due to the weather. People were pissed, and the field was trashed. I spent a few minutes picking up litter, using my Staff to light the way. The whole camp seemed to be on fire, bonfire smoke was everywhere. I then took my staff into the darkest areas of the camp, spinning and twirling and helping confused campers find their way around, having each one sign my shirt. This yielded me the nickname "The Guardian", because I led people through the dark with my staff, used it to keep people away from the fire-twirlers, and 'make sure people have a happy and safe trip". I really enjoyed the experience, watching "Fritz the Cat" and "Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy" projected on a bluff and letting many cool people try out my staff. I wandered around the camp and spoke with people, coming across a secret stage where a bluegrass band was playing amidst a field of glowsticks. I met a lot of awesome people and put on a display with the staff, easily becoming the most recognized and visible person in the campsite.
On the last day we packed up and left at noon. I just recently got home.
I really had a great time. I ended up spending all my money, but it was well worth it. This was the highlight of my 18th birthday, and came at a great time- especially since I've been working nonstop, been stressed, and fighting constantly with my brother after he smashed a glass sculpture I bought. He hasn't been home since last Tuesday.
I'll post some pictures of the event when I get them developed.
I DEFINATELY plan to return, now that I'm known there. I'm willing to endure the blisters.

I'm finally an adult
Posted 16 years agoYup, after lying about my age for the past few years, I've finally at the age where it won't matter.
I'm finally 18, old enough to die for my country, but still raising my hand in Senior Biology to get some water. Only to be turned down. Yeah.
Already got a few gifts, including:
-A new Ipod Nano (16g) and $25 visa from my dad
-A microphone and new Fender amp from my mom (read previous journal)
-$30 cash (so far)
-A free dinner at Flat Top grille, where I travelled with my family after opting out of a steakhouse
-Child's Play Entire set
-New headphones
-Tickets to see Jah Roots' final show at Schwagstock 42 (and I WONT let transit bother me)
I have a few plans now,
-Buy a pack of cigarrettes (I don't even smoke them)
-Get an account at Blockbuster/Netflix
-Buy a new glass "tobacco" piece
-Register to vote (America! Fuck yeah!)
-Buy a Zeta Toy/Bad Dragon toy
-Post nude pics online (maybe not, not until I lose about ten pounds)
-Sign up for life insur.....oh wait, It'll be mine soon anyway :)
-Go on vacation (Schwagstock!)
-Buy a porno
Yeah. I've had a good day today. I just can't wait until tomorrow, when it will technically BE my birthday. Right now it's midnight on my birthday. I had to stay up. That was childhood that just disappeared.
Oh. I made myself sad.
Anyway, about that new Obama speech...they didn't show it at my school, but I've been wanting to hear it. He's really talking to a lot of the students that go to my school.

STUPID-STUPID-STUPID
Posted 16 years agoWell, nobody told me not to put a new amp in the back of a truck.
So I did.
More to follow as I count down the time till midnight. (An hour and a half)

World peace?
Posted 16 years agoThere is only way to acheive such a goal- kill off all of the population, and leave two honest men or women standing. Without hopes of resuscitation, the two can reconcile and admit the defeat. Even then, the chances of killing and arguing will be high.
My point is- the world relies on conflict. At this very second, the inertia of planet Earth is conflicting against the gravity of our sun, moon, and solar system. But we keep on turning.
There's a lot of division occurring. Politically speaking, the United States is nearly as divided now as in the 1860's. One side refuses to listen to their opponents, simply because their opponents have made a slip in the past. And when a slip does arise, the blame is shifted to the opposing side.
But hey, it's only natural. Even I'm as guilty, perhaps moreso, of stepping aside and letting the blame fall on someone else.
That's why I've decided to become a nihilist. Now, nihilism does not promote apathy towards human life and existence. It does not tell you to not get a job and buy a house because you will die eventually. Rather, nihilism teaches you to overlook small things, even large things, because in the end whatever you do, whatever you say, even what you may have just said, will be in the past and unable to be altered. You must live with the present and anticipate your future, and not get bent out of shape when things don't go as planned. By turning away the common nature, you learn quite a lot- man will fight, unexpected things will fuck up your life, you will get depressed, you will get happy- but in the end, you will die and none of it will have mattered.
Right this second, as I type this, several people have died. I feel unaffected as I knew none of them. And as the population increases (several HUNDRED have begat children since I started typing) the human race is more egocentric, not in harmony, careless of what occurs around them. When I die, only my family and friends will care that I am dead- but who else will? No one. In that sense, in the big scheme of things, what you do will not matter. Johnny Depp is considered one of the greatest American actors, yet in a hundred years or so very few will remember him.
And that's life. And that's how you come to peace with it. Don't get bent out of shape whenever something bad happens. If nothing bad happened, wouldn't you take the good things for granted?
Think about it. All of you.
And above all, grow the fuck up.

Why don't you be a beatboxer?
Posted 16 years agoBeen working on creating and varying new beats these past few days. I worked on them religiously throughout the summer and now that I have a wider audience it's worth it to start applying some technique. I've been watching Roxorloops (Belgium Beatbox Champion), Joel Turner (Beatbox World Champion after a tie-breaker with Roxorloops), and Beardyman (British scritch and SFX machine).
Still yet to find a decent college (thought I'd give a year break by going to community college). They all sound so happy to have me apply- if that were the case, shouldn't they waive all tuition fees?

Go see "District 9"
Posted 16 years agoIt was by far the greatest Peter Jackson movie since "Meet the Feebles". I saw the midnight show filled to the brim with college students. The room hung heavy with hops breath. And that just enhanced the experience.
There was plenty of action, a great storyline, creative and original effects, wonderful and seamless cinematography, and the story felt incredibly real.
I'm a tough critic when it comes to movies, and I even had a few bad words about "Dark Knight". But to be honest, there is nothing I can say against D9. It was truly an epic movie, and the ending left me warm and fuzzy (it's been a while!)
District 9 was the greatest movie of 2009. Easily.
Oh, and coming home to find my father and his best friend passed out drunk on our porch entertained me even more. So did helping them to bed/ home.

I'm in LOVE!
Posted 16 years agoWell, for about two weeks. Which, by today's standards in such a polygamous and nymphomaniacal world, could qualify for a healthy relationship.
Now, I've got to say this- I'm highly against casual sex and swinging. There is no place for a "flavor of the week" romance that is filled with sex and making out. I avoid relationships because I can't be around people too long, and I hate hiding or not hiding it. Whenever I'm in a relationship I plan to at least get to an anniversary.
BUT- this guy has worked at my job since I began. He was the person who trained me both as an usher and a concessionist. Also, he was the first person I'd ever come out to, only to find he was gay too. So, maybe it was meant to be for now?
Problem is, the guy is moving to California in a little less than two weeks (>8^() But when we shared a good chat while carpooling, we admitted to have feelings for one another.
Last night we got jiggy in "Harry Potter". After months of stopping teens from making out, I'm doing the exact same thing ;)
Well, just a small update. <3 my chocolate bud!

CELEBRATION!
Posted 16 years agoFinals are over, and I have two days off of work.
Because "Transformers 2" will eat up all my free time until the next semester....it's time to celebrate!
Anybody else have something to celebrate?

I am no longer a liberal
Posted 16 years agoYeah. I've given up on politics. As well as this country.
You know what? EVERYBODY today would rather insult you and pretend they know everything because they read it on the news. They won't listen to your idea because, no matter the situation, they are right and you are wrong.
Present them with evidence of God, make JESUS HIMSELF fly down to earth, and they'll call it a hoax. Watch a wave displace and kill millions of people, and they'll find a single person to blame before reaching out to help the millions.
People are stupid. They believe they know what something means simply because they can put a definition to it.
Alright. Define love.
See? Not a single same definition. Yet you have people that are in love with their wives. You have men in love with underage children. Christ, you have PEOPLE "in love" with ANIMALS. ANIMALS.
Yet they all say the same thing- "We're in love".
Obviously, they think they know what it means. But how much will arguing do?
I grew up in the Bush era. I remember 9/11 looking through eyes of a child that had never even seen a sex ed video. I watched people leap to their deaths before I had ever watched a Drivers Ed accident tape. I watched a prosperious, handsome country with high hopes collapse into a world of debt, pointing fingers, tension, chaos, panic...and above all, fear.
Now, as I become an adult, I see a new era emerge. A black man is president while the elderly in the south still use "nigger" because it means hate to them, not buddy. I'd say we've come along way.
Is it too early to tell? Yes, it is. I liked Bush at first. But once I saw his unwillingness to help the majority of America, preferring to pamper the rich and provide enough benefits to gain a vote from the poor (only to take them away again), I changed my mind.
I knew America had lost its mind when he won again. And then Katrina happened. And then, the economy crashed.
Instead of fixing it instantly, he rode it out until a newcomer, a man in possibly the WORST situation in the country right now, could take over and solve the troubles for him.
I'm unsure of Obama. I was too young (by a month...damn it.) to register to vote. I would have voted Obama because McCain was equally as deceptive. Yet, McCain promised and spoke as if Bush himself were sitting in the chair for the third time.
It is too early to tell. Come on people, we're barely past the 100 day mark. Just because the economy isn't better now doesn't mean it will be ever in Obama's term.
The least we can do is to hope it doesn't get worse. We can't go too far into the future.
But, I refuse to take a part now. I officially resign from the liberal party, the Democratic party, and the American society. They can all burn in hell. And riding in the basket will the Conservative party, the Republican party, and all the people who continue to fight and argue simply to compete for a sense of superiority.
I choose to live my life in my own terms. My own ideas, be they conservative or liberal, will not make me up for who I am. I will not strike a conservative. I will not support a liberal. Because they already have an ignorant, festering fanbase that will jump at each others' necks at the instant their leader calls for it.
"Fuck the government of the USA
With a crazy commie prezzy tryin' ta rule the day
The people always talk about, but never really get,
Different guy in office, SAME BULLSHIT!"
Peace out, guys.
Leave the politics at your House.
Show me the front door.

I'm unsure of Obama. I was too young (by a month...damn it.) to register to vote. I would have voted Obama because McCain was equally as deceptive. Yet, McCain promised and spoke as if Bush himself were sitting in the chair for the third time.
It is too early to tell. Come on people, we're barely past the 100 day mark. Just because the economy isn't better now doesn't mean it will be ever in Obama's term.
The least we can do is to hope it doesn't get worse. We can't go too far into the future.
But, I refuse to take a part now. I officially resign from the liberal party, the Democratic party, and the American society. They can all burn in hell. And riding in the basket will the Conservative party, the Republican party, and all the people who continue to fight and argue simply to compete for a sense of superiority.
I choose to live my life in my own terms. My own ideas, be they conservative or liberal, will not make me up for who I am. I will not strike a conservative. I will not support a liberal. Because they already have an ignorant, festering fanbase that will jump at each others' necks at the instant their leader calls for it.
"Fuck the government of the USA
With a crazy commie prezzy tryin' ta rule the day
The people always talk about, but never really get,
Different guy in office, SAME BULLSHIT!"
Peace out, guys.
Leave the politics at your House.
Show me the front door.

Obama orders peace on abortion-parties do exact opposite
Posted 16 years agoSaw this last night, couldn't help but feel such a small thing really reflects the ideology of America at the current time.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/politico/22.....R9rDKb.7IDW7oF
During an honorary graduation ceremony at Notre Dame, President Obama spoke openly about the abortion debate. Keep in mind, in the past he has agreed that abortion should be kept for serious cases, but does openly support the right a woman has to an abortion. Obama stated, "I do not suggest that the debate surrounding abortion can or should go away.Because no matter how much we may want to fudge it — the fact is that at some level, the views of the two camps are irreconcilable."
“Each side will continue to make its case to the public with passion and conviction," Obama added. "But surely we can do so without reducing those with differing views to caricature.”
And guess what all the pro-life and pro-choice graduates began doing? Fighting. Within five minutes, three people were escorted out by security officers. One man was led out for shouting "You are a baby-killer" over and over.
Jesus. I mean, really. Can't a call for peace between two occasionally violent viewpoints ever end with actual peace? Though the college is Catholic, understandably the issue of abortion is very fragile. However, Obama remained neutral and did not bring up a call for nor against the operation. In fact, he reaffirmed that Americans must cooperate and stop demonizing each other so that bias will die, we will be united, and therefore strive to solve our problems the most efficient way.
You know what's REALLY funny? People often question how Sunnis and Shiites can be so divided upon such small issues that it literally tears the country apart (usually through car bombs). Is it any different over here? An extreme liberal won't listen to a conservative due to the fact that they might support Bush, are for the War in Iraq, are pro-choice and anti-gay marriage. And extreme conservatives will NEVER consider the thoughts of a liberal because they don't fit into any of the previous categories.
If you can recall the last line of Animal Farm, it seems we're experiencing the same ordeal.

Downtime
Posted 16 years agoToday was the premiere of "The Laramie Project". We did it for all the local high schools. Sadly, because of time, a lot of scenes had to be cut and the parents complained about the excessive language. So, we had to cut that out too. But still, I saw a lot of people leaning forward in their seats.
I play Stephen Belber (an interviewer), Rev. Fred Phelps, Wyoming Gov. Jim Geringer, Laramie resident Jeffrey Lockwood, and Aaron James McKinney (one of the Matt Sheppard murderers).
It was VERY successful! I had a great time, and this is my first show in a professional theater (before it was high school, college and community shows. This one holds real performers).
Right now there's some down time before the next show, so I'm sitting here listening to Lil Wayne and relaxing.
I'll REALLY miss this show. I loved everyone in it and I might not get a chance to work with them again.

Sexy Meme
Posted 16 years agoOr, a meme about sex (just cause I follow the pod)
Stolen from
leeham991dark
Sexual orientation:
Homosexual, though I've really had more girlfriends than boyfriends. It was just that the one boyfriend outweighed all my girlfriends.
How often do you think about sex:
About any time something that COULD be related to sex happens in front of me.
How often do you HAVE sex:
I'm a virgin. I see no shame in it. I'm not abstinent or anything, I'd just rather wait to lose it to someone worth it.
Cybersex? Phone sex?:
Couldn't stand phone sex. The voices are so corny. But cybersex is REALLY fun with people who know what they're doing. None of that *pants and moans, rubs cock* shit.
Casual sex:
Don't go there. There's too many things to catch from strangers.
What is your favorite masturbation euphemism:
Busting a nut
Sex toys and related fetish accessories:
Fursuits, Bad Dragon/Zeta toys
Least sexiest body part:
Feet. Just disgusting. Can't rub 'em, can't lick 'em, and NONE will touch my junk.
Favorite body type:
Someone very natural looking, in all honesty. Slightly pudgy, a bit of hair, not a Calvin Klein model.
BUT, if I want to be shallow, I love totally slender/emo-ish guys with slight amount of muscle and hairless.
Body hair:
It's all good! Means you're a REAL man. Not big on 'bears', though. (Basically, they gotta be less hairy than me...and I'm pretty hairy)
Monogamy or polygamy?:
Monogamy. More than one person causes too many problems, plus its like saying that whoever you love isn't quite enough.
Underwear:
Boxer/briefs...preferable on the floor =D
Pornographic or erotic:
Erotic. I'm addicted to sex but it's not worth it if there's no emotion involved.
How large is your porn collection?:
As of late it's small, thanks to a computer error. But with my PSP, saved sites and all items before the crash, it was well over 2GB.
Kissing or cuddling?:
Cuddling ^^. It's so sweet. At least if you really love the person well enough.
Most attractive nationality/ethnicity:
I'd hop in an Aussie's ass like a Kangaroo.
And gimmie some mulatto boys, for sure!
Most attractive anthro/furry creature:
Anything with scales. And if they're aquatic, even better!
Most interesting fetishes you've heard of:
I don't think I'll ever understand the car crash fetish. That's just weird.

Lost at Sea (Part2) put on hold
Posted 16 years agoYeah, all the fans I had in the past are lost due to my AXL ROSE syndrome (that is, I say I'll do something but spend several years 'working' on it only to say it won't happen.)
BUT!....The story I intended to write a long time ago, (The Haitwan Dolphin Facility) is now in the works and, I'm confident, will end up GETTING RELEASED...for once.
This was the same story that, immediately after Lost at Sea, I began working on. I was about 20 pages in when my brother tried to salvage our files from a threatening virus. Unfortunately, all the documents he'd made didn't transfer from the floppys to the computer so the manuscript, as well as all my vacation photos and original manuscripts, were lost.
Wish me luck?

Happy 420!
Posted 16 years agoYes, thank you, you fine group of Waldens from San Rafael High School, that helped to spark such a lasting number in the cannabis culture!
Also it's Hitler's 120th birthday and the 10 year anniversary of the Columbine Massacre, but let's focus on more POSITIVE things, mkay?
Sadly I can't celebrate. I had rehersal all day (about noon to 4), and after I'm done writing this I'll go out to dinner and then to ANOTHER rehersal until 9pm.
But when 9pm comes....I'll be carpre-ing the hell out of the diem!
Peace, one love.

I cut up Johnny Depp on Easter.
Posted 16 years agoI didn't have to work yesterday, but I did pick up some hours by doing my all time FAVORITE activity.
Take ALL the posters of new/upcoming releases, stencil them out, and cut them up for our rotating poster displays!
"Public Enemies", the new one about John Dillinger (Johnny Depp) was one of the ones I enjoyed cutting. I can't wait to see the movie!
And ADAM SANDLER is doing a movie with SETH ROGEN, LESLIE MANN, and JASON SCHWARTZMAN. It's called (fittingly enough) "Funny People". STOKED!
Sorry about the lack of activity, especially with LAS prt.4. Two plays ('Charlie Brown' and 'the Laramie Project') have completely ruined my free time because the rehersals are one hour between each other.
And during the weekends...well, I'm usually working or so fuckin baked I can't stare at a computer screen.

I've decided Animal Sex is wrong
Posted 16 years agoYeah.
It still arouses me. That's what I'm worried about. Because now, I have no drive to have sex with an animal, period. So if I don't find human sex as arousing, what's to be done?
But first, my reasons.
I remember a line from "Lakeview Terrace" (loved the film), Samuel L. Jackson confronts a child molester. During the scene, he asks the man "So you think just because they didn't cry and say stop, it was ok?"
That really made me think. Humans, chimps, and dolphins are probably the only known animals that will have sex at any time for any reason besides just procreation.
So why do so many people feel that sex with animals that don't have sex for fun (horses, dogs, sheep, goats, etc.,) will enjoy sex?
In the animal world, rape is common-place. The alpha male might penetrate both females and males to show dominance, something an inferior will respond to with passiveness because they know their place. They won't cry out or try to stop them because they know who's the one in charge. So saying an animal enjoys sex simply because they don't try to stop you is a bit skewed.
Second- people ALWAYS misinterpret animals. They give them "human traits".
Here's an example.
A dolphin (I know, sue me and my reputation) swims up to you and opens its mouth. To many people, they will laugh and say the dolphin is smiling and being cute. In reality, dolphins commonly open their mouths and bear their teeth to show territory or dominance. Open mouths are usually the sign of anger, fear, or aggressiveness in wild dolphins. In domestics, usually it is a sign of wanting something. And dolphins, by nature, don't "SMILE". It's just hard to tell because of the shape of their mouths.
Soooo....a dog panting and "smiling" while you penetrate her isn't always a sign of enjoyment. Panting comes from an elevated heart rate, which happens in many different emotions. She could be scared, confused, or excited. Could they enjoy it? Sure. But in a sensitive area to an animal that might not know better, they don't exactly REALIZE the reasons behind it. If you hadn't masturbated in seven years and, while blindfolded, someone began to jerk you off...CHANCES ARE you'd be less likely to protest.
A horse "backing up" as you penetrate it doesn't mean "Yeah baby, give me more!". Because horses are built differently than us, they will usually back up to throw the horse on top off balance and they dismount.
Third- Ever notice how an animal, whether giving or receiving, acts the same way? Usually there are bits of confusion or not understanding. If animals DID enjoy sex, more than likely they would hop on if you present yourself, or lay there as long as you're penetrating them. But no. Sex is sex to them. People use sex as an underlying component to love, but sex is sex to them. And that's why it's wrong. In the end, only the HUMAN is the one getting enjoyment.
Fourth (you'll kill me for this one)- Animals....ok. This ties to reason two. ANIMALS, plain and simple, LACK THE COGNITIVE ABILITIES WE HAVE AS HUMANS.
I'll use examples.
Commonly, I hear of people who have an animal 'mate'. They say this animal will pick them out of other potential mates of the same species, and that there is a personal connection.
That's because animals work similar to us, but with less 'good vs. bad' thoughts. To them, any animal that has sex without showing signs of dominance is a mate, and has only had sex to procreate. Do they understand that it's not begatting offspring? No. They simply see the human as a mate because THERE WAS NO DOMINANCE. And sure, much better than the people that exploit their pets/livestock, but still that's speaking for both parties because the other cannot speak. How do you KNOW this animal feels the same way about you? It's the natural animal instinct to establish who is in charge, and who deserves respect. Your pet cat/dog will act friendlier to you because (1) you feed it (2) you pet it (3) you are always there. Simple. Even abusive owners who feed their pets are respected by the animal because two of the three items fit.
Where I'm going with this...animals rely LARGELY on instinct. What sets humans apart are that we can establish what is right and what is wrong, which oddly enough is just another thing we've learned from our superiors. There's no reason to believe your mate 'choose' you to be the lover. They are an animal, you don't try to dominate them, they put up with whatever you need them for because THEY RESPECT YOU. They may not like having their nails trimmed or whatever, but because there's respect, they allow you to do it. The animal might not be too keen on letting you penetrate it or penetrating you, but because there is respect they put up with it because there is no extreme pain.
Yes, I admit it. Animals are stupid in different ways. They think different than us. But once you start putting human brains into nonhuman species, it becomes a problem.
There's no way to determine whether or not the animal enjoys sex. While most zoophiles take pride in not harming the animal, the animal isn't sharing the relationship back and sees you as a superior who likes to have sex. Just because there is little to no harm done, the animal can't say "Yes" or "No" and take a side when it comes to sex. Your pet may not mind being penetrated, or it might be kept quiet. In that respect, they can't give consent and can't logically refuse either.
But don't you see? That's why its bad! It's exploitation because the animal can't say yes or no, and in the end only the PERSON gets the sexual relief. And that's why I see it as wrong.
But I admit it. I still like dolphins. Mostly because they do have a better grasp on sex than most animals do. I still feel they can never really "refuse" sex, because their drives are so violent. You keep a dolphin locked in a pen their entire life, and the second someone rubs a genital slit they're ready to have sex. They aren't conciously selecting you, nor do they see you as any different. But if you're willing to cup your hand while a dolphin thrusts his penis against you, that is some form of relief. Same for the females-you stick your finger or penis into her slit, naturally she'll thrust back. Can they refuse? Of course. But because sex is so commonplace even they don't notice whether it is bad or not.
-If eating a cheeseburger got someone off sexually, certainly you'd have no problem eating a cheeseburger in front of this person. It's a cheeseburger- you've eaten plenty in your life. But why give that one person the satisfaction when you aren't receiving any equal type of your own? What if they watch you eat it from across the street? Wouldn't you feel somewhat violated? And would it stop you from eating that cheeseburger? Probably not.
Hypocrisy aside, I'd still sexually stimulate a dolphin of either gender. I would gladly allow penetration from a male or to a female. Although now, now that I've seen the 'true' way of animal sexuality, I certainly am not going to pursue the chance.

Proof that Marijuana is bad
Posted 16 years agoIf Michael Phelps didn't smoke weed, he could've gotten 20 gold medals and broken countless world records.
But sadly, due to his addiction, he only got 8 and broke one world record.
Undeniable proof that you can never be anything if you smoke weed.
