all the words i wish you could feel
are lying in my throat like cold, broken teeth.
pat says: maybe the reason you have a heart problem is because you eat so much crap.
to be fair...
at the time of this comment, i was downing nine bags of jalepeno chips a day.
Does anyone remember Spelunx?
It was originally released in 1991 for Macs in black and white and was colorized in 1993. There was no real objective, just a series of underground caves. Caves of knowledge. You could experiment with gases and their lighting properties, learn about Cartesian coordinates, metabolism, genetics, and gravity.
I'm still geeking out about it.
"I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use."
"Draw a crazy picture, Write a nutty poem, Sing a mumble-gumble song, Whistle through your comb. Do a loony-goony dance' Cross the kitchen floor, Put something silly in the world, That ain't been there before. "
- Shel Silverstein
I love the smell of hardware stores. The perfect mix of sawdust, paintfumes, and magic. Sometimes when I'm driving around town, I stop by the Home Depot and just wander the aisles for a while. There's something comforting and hopeful and beautiful to be found there.
- I can’t sing, I can’t dance, and I can’t tell a joke. I’m good at lots of other things though-I can eat like a lumberjack, I can spell lots of words, and I can usually tell when people are lying.
- I hate the sound of bananas being chewed. And the smell of dirty hair. And the color teal.
- I never leave the cheese on my pizza slices. Cheese must be on the pizza when it’s cooked and then carefully peeled off before it cools.
- When I’m feeling down, I listen to Brahms. When I’m feeling stressed, I do math in my head.
- I’ve seen Aladdin 74 times. At least since I started counting a couple of summers ago. I know all the words to all the songs, but I can’t sing them (see #1).
- I won’t be your friend if you pronounce it “fudgesickle” instead of “fudgeickle.”
- I still sleep with a stuffed animal and her name is Rosie and she’s a dog.
- I don’t mind the scar on my collarbone so much anymore.
- I think people with perpetually clean houses are inherently boring. Or else they're serial killers.
- I believe Michael Jackson is the greatest entertainer of our time.
It's been a long time that something truly magical, not phony or manufactured, has graced the silver screen. So Jean-Pierre Jeunet's Amelie comes as a most welcome new gem. It deserves to be cherished, hugged and celebrated.
-Jeffery M. Anderson
There are always those who take it upon themselves to defend God, as if the Ultimate Reality, as if the sustaining frame of existance, were something weak and helpless. These people walk by a window fogged with lepers begging for a few paise, walk by children dressed in rags living in the street, and they think "Business as usual." But if they perceive a slight against God, it is a different story. Their faces go red, their chests heave mightily, they sputter angry words. The degree of thier indignation is astonishing. Their resolve is frightening.
These people fail to realize that is is on the inside that God must be defended, not on the outside. They should direct their anger at themsleves. For evil in the open is but evil from within that has been let out.
The main battlefeild for good is not the open ground of the public arena but the small clearing of each heart.
Meanwhile, the lot of windows and homeless children is very hard, and it is to their defence, not God's that the self-righteous should rush.
-Yann Martel
i came here for two reasons. to kick ass and to chew bubble gum. i'm all out of gum.
1. my legions of terror will have helmets with clear plexiglass visors, not face concealing ones.
2. confrontations in the middle of a rope-bridge over a river of molten lava are not even worth considering.
3. bulk trach will be disposed of in incinerators, not compactors. and they will be kept hot, with none of that nonsense about flames going though accessible tunnels at predictable intervals.
4. the artifact which is the source of my power will not be kept on the mountian of despair beyond the river of fire gaurded by the dragons of eternity. it will be in my safe-deposit box. the same applies to the object which is my one weakness.
5. if it becomes necessary to escape, i will never stop to pose dramatically and toss off a one-liner
6. i will be secure in my superiority. therefore, i will feel no need to prove it by leaving clues about my plan in the form of riddles.
7. the hero is not entitles to a last kiss, a last cigarette, or any other form of last request.
8. when i employ people as advisors, i will occasionally listen to their advice.
9. despite its proven stress-relieving effect, i will not indulge in maniacal laughter. when so occupied, it's too easy to miss unexpected developments that a more attentive individual could adjust to accordingly.
10. i will not turn into a snake. it never helps.

if i was beautiful like you- oh the things i would do. those not so blessed would be crying out murder and i'd just laugh and get away with it too. like you do. if i was beautiful like you i would never be at fault. i'd walk in the rain between the raindrops-bringing traffic to a halt. if i was beautiful like you, i'd be quick to assume-they'd do anything to please me. i know i see the reaction when you walk into a room. if i was beautiful like you- i'd have so many friends, always fighting for my time to be the next in line so if i hurt one i wouldn't have to make amends.
but that will never be. i'm not beautiful like you. i'm beautiful like me.

" I love that you get cold when it's seventy one degrees out, I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich, I love that you get a little crinkle above your nose when you're looking at me like I'm nuts, I love that after I spend a day with you I can still smell your perfume on my clothes and I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely, and it's not because it's New Years Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of the life to start as soon as possible."
when harry met sally is easily the best thing to come out of 1989
