though I'm not too sure I really want to know, what on Earth is wrong with Jeremy's arm in that picture you posted, Taylor? it looks like it's going through the guitar...

so, dinner at cafe mosaics on Wednesday? I think I'd be up for it. ... it'll keep me out of the house a while, and that might be good considering my dad's recent vocalization of all things conservative.

ugh. what an awful car ride. we were listening to the bear, and lucky for us they were discussing circumcision ... and genitalia in general... awesome... I'm so glad main stream rock radio goes for the common denominator... but anyway, I ended up defending it. ... because, by my dad's logic, the next step might very well be to talking about/inciting murder... like legalising homosexual marriage will then lead to the legalisation of humans marrying snakes... what the fuck?

so I defended it... by saying that it's only going on the air because it's been normalised and society has accepted it to be okay... low-brow and going for the lowest common denominator, but okay.... and he retorted by asking what then would stop us from having a genocide... because hating Jews was the norm at one point. fuck. I just don't think you can draw the parallels like that. they aren't parallels. but someone's going to agree with him, I know. I just hope it's no one from our generation. That seems to be the one saving grace thus far: most of the youth have already decided, we're just waiting for the older people to move out of power, and then things will change. (but that's like any other kid saying "I can't wait until my dad retires and then I can take over the family business" ... if you know what I mean)

it's just such bullshit.

and I still don't know how I turned out the way I did, with the parents I have. I mean: "Mom, you might want to look into the cruise ship you're taking... some of them just dump all that raw sewage created straight into the ocean" - "but fish do it, why can't we?" .... how the hell is this possible?

And now to present you with the first official VERSUS tournament of the year:

STEVEN HAWKING VS. CHRISTOPHER REEVE

Okay, so it's only 10 seconds of trash talk. But it's fuckin hilarious.

"tigerbombs" is most definitely already taken...too bad, it was a pretty sweet name.

I'd be up for a day trip to calgary and some sledding. Depending on the day
But let me know - i can even drive if i can come

A Cool and Logical Analysis of the Bicycle Menace:

The ungainly geometry and primitive mechanicals of the bicycle are an offense to the eye. The grimy and perspiring riders of the bicycle are an offense to the nose. And the very existence of the bicycle is an offense to reason and wisdom.

American Bad

I agree on that one beck. I found desperate housewives more interesting... yeah that's right I watched desperate housewives!!
The one part of american dad that I did find funny was the scene explaining the german speaking fish, there's something funny about a ski jumper trying to wiggle his way back into the water.
oh my sides.

Hmm, it seems my efforts to gather people to my causes is, thus far, unsuccessful. (How the fuck does Falwell do it?) Anyway, to update:

• Mosaics: Moved to dinner Wednesday. Hopefully, I can get the car and save us a long walk/short bus trip. I'm done at five, so we could meet in a relatively familiar place (say, CAB) around then. Let me know if you're interested and can make it.


• Thinkgeek: Haven't received any e-mail just yet (*hint, hint*). Rogues is up. I haven't worked out the math just yet, but I think there's a savings if we get more than eight shirts. So why are you waiting? E-mail now. I said now!

Yeah, American Dad wasn't nearly as cool as they put it out to be.

What disappointing episodes...
