AUTUMN IS HERE!

Tue, 29 Sep 2009 16:37:43 GMT

i can feel it and smell it OH YEAH!

in winnipeg the only season that i can really enjoy is the autumn. the arrival of short days and cold weather always pushes the residents of this shit-hole back into their shacks! this means the city will smell less like cheap number 7 cigarettes, hairspray, and tim horton's coffee, OH HELL YEAH! this also means that my chances of being stabbed outside of my home will be greatly reduced!

FUCK YES, COLD CRISP AIR!

FUCK YES, LONGER NIGHTS!

FUCKEDY FUCK FUCK YES, GORGEOUS SHADES OF RED YELLOW ORANGE AND BROWN!

i love you autumn.

The Principality of Sealand

Thu, 03 Sep 2009 15:41:57 GMT

Since 1967 this guy Roy Bates has occupied an abandoned WWII era sea fort in international waters. He refers to himself as Prince Roy Bates and claims that the fort is a sovereign state. Since he took control of the fort Prince Roy has had coins minted and stamps printed for use within the Principality of Sealand, issued official Sealand passports, published a Sealand constitution, resisted hostile takeovers (staged by other would-be princes), and he's even fired shots at passing British Navy vessels.

i never intended for my posts to be caustic, really.

but you need to understand that by adding random people to your friends list you're exposing them to your opinions(which they may not agree with and which they may find totally offensive). i understand now that you don't really want to discuss anything you post in your blog, you just want people to agree with you, and that's okay. you're free to do what you like with your journal. i just hope that in the future you won't solicit people's attention only to disregard anything they have to say by deleting their posts. it's totally childish. kind of like plugging your ears and making noises while someone is trying to speak to you, or exiting the room during a conversation that you started.

i won't comment in your journal anymore and i'll remove you from my friends list.

take care of yourself, kiddo.

Shake Hands With Danger

Thu, 13 Aug 2009 14:07:31 GMT

I can remember being subjected to this every year for three consecutive years in my high school auto-shop. The teacher, Mr. Sears (who was usually so hungover all he could do was hide in his office from the lights of the shop), took this very seriously and would growl at anyone who laughed.

so lately i've been scattering resumes and cover letters around the city in hopes that i'll find a job that's actually challenging, maybe stimulating, maybe even enjoyable. it's the first time i've ever taken a job search seriously so i'm kinda nervous. cross those fingers!

“What sets worlds in motion is the interplay of differences, their attractions and repulsions. Life is plurality, death is uniformity. By suppressing differences and peculiarities, by eliminating different civilizations and cultures, progress weakens life and favors death.
The ideal of a single civilization for everyone, implicit in the cult of progress and technique, impoverishes and mutilates us. Every view of the world that becomes extinct, every culture that disappears, diminishes a possibility of life”.

— Octavio Paz (1914-1998)

I woke up again to a sink full of cold dish-water. I fucking hate reaching in past all the congealed bits of fat and whateverthefuck that float on top/throughout, that shit sticks. I've really got to learn to finish what I start.

Chemical 'caterpillar' points to electronics-free robots
http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn16910-chemical-caterpillar-points-to-electronicsfree-robots.html

I hate Dave Mustaine. I love Megadeth.

psychotron by megadeth

Assassin in stealth
Assailant from hell
Impervious to damage
Computer
on-board
Engaged in a war
Non-stop combatant
Maybe not a mutant, maybe a man

Part bionic
And organic
Not a cyborg
Call him psychotron

Burning inside
Godspeed in glide
Battle plan running
A killing machine
Just downright mean
And forever gunning
Maybe not a mutant, maybe a man

Target to destroy
Arms in employ
Full assault fire threat
Sensors indicate
You will terminate
Life systems disconnect

Today as I prepped trays of seeds for germination I watched four different types of birds and a squirrel search for food in my garden.

I have a garden.

Fuck you.
