I'm in such a good fucking mood today, that not even the retards at the library can bring me down. Life is grand. More sentences for this statement of purpose. I am doing better.

Further proof that Firefly is amazing, they pay homage to the greatest piece of movie sci-fi ever made: Aliens:

As a homage to the Alien movies, the Weyland-Yutani logo was used on some weapons in the dystopian TV series Firefly, and can be seen on a Heads Up Display in that show's pilot episode. In Serenity, the Operative's claim that the Alliance ( Read more... )

Watched a clip of Bill O'reily talking, with a straight face mind you, about a national network of: "underground gay and lesbian gangs" that are terrorizing communities and indoctrinating our young into homosexuality.

Some people really just need to go die. I don't know who is worse,the people who come up with this shit or the ones who believe it.

installed vista.... promptly reinstalled xp

Tell me why I can get in front of 1500+ people and be fine, but karaoke in a bar full of drunkies makes my leg shake like a scared kid bout to pee himself. I can't explain it either.

And the spending is complete.

Day turned around. I'm glad. Sandwich went pretty well, though we ran the grill out of propane :(. I'm glad that I have an old man tolerance--2 beers will do me for the evening now. I'm not really drunk, just feeling decent. I just hate to come home and waste that by passing out like a fucking geriatric. I get an extra half hour of sleep tomorrow. ( Read more... )

I woke up in a rotten-ass mood and have no clue why. Coffee and breakfast pastries will hopefully fix  this. Not too enthused about being around people today. Come to think of it, I'm not a real fan of people at all lately. Need to reverse this trend.

Sci-fi, specifically 60's sci-fi, is a horny teenage boy genre. No, its not 'speculative fiction'. That term is reserved for lit snobs. But anywhoo, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep (the book that spawned bladerunner) illustrates my point. For old sci-fi, its really well written. Except, a key descriptive element of most of the book's women is ( Read more... )
