I'm a number on your wall, I'll make you so tired.
Yeah, and I don't think I like this game no more,
It goes round and round and round --
I'll take it one more time, one more time.
And now you've crossed that line, you can't come back
Tell me how does it feel now?
It's too late, too much to forget about
Can't stop now, tell me how does it feel now?
I'm only asking because I want to know --
how you wanna feel.

I recommend sticking your foot in your mouth at any time
Feel free
Throw it down (the caution blocks you from the wind)
Hold it up (to the rays)
You wait and see when the smoke clears
You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn

The past 3 weeks have quite possibly been the longest of my life! or, at least it just seems that way. I have been so, so busy and the bad news is that it's only going to get worse until June 1 (finish date for a huge, gigantic, major monstrosity of a project). But, that's ok, I'm just glad to have a job. Anyway, it keeps me super busy and I guess that makes me valuable. (it's nice to be valuable to someone at least!) Anyway, everybody's got a lot going on, so hang in guys, we're young -- we should be able to handle it!

I see a shadow in the mirror, and she's laughing through her tears, one more smile's all I can fake.

Isn't that how all of us feel at some point?? Heck, I feel that way when I'm walking around in my building on the job and I smile at someone and they just stare blankly (see previous entry, "hi or not"). Now, granted, I share an office building with a bunch of extreme introverts. But, really, just because you like computers and Star Trek, does that mean you can't say hi or at least smile when you see someone??? geez!!! My good friend Chris is a great example of the opposite of this. Chris is very bright, very into computers, but is very friendly and can carry on a normal conversation and he's hilarious. Chris is the coolest computer dude I know. But he's the exception to the rule. What is it about this genre of IT folks that gives them the mentality that they would rather chew their left arm off than look you in the eye and have a real converstion with you??

So that's what I'm saying -- one more smile's all I can fake! Maybe when I pass one of them, I'll just throw up my hand and seperate my ring finger from my middle finger in that whatever Star Trek thingy -- I bet they would for sure talk to me then!!! I'm giving my sense of humor a serious break this weekend!

have a good one!

I hate to say it, but Avril hits the nail on the head with that lyric. Is it just me or are journalists these days COMPLETELY out of their minds??

First, we've got Peter Arnett kissing up to Iraqi TV, telling them how the US has totally screwed up and underestimated their "power." Then, there's good ole geraldo thinking he's a Marine, drawing a map in the sand!!! That's a good one, Geraldo. I mean, what are they thinking?!?

This is not some game we're playing; this is WAR. We seem to forget about that, since it has become a complete television circus. These journalists are just out there hiding in trenches, riding on tanks, thinking they're part of the military. Hey, NEWSFLASH, you are a news person; you sit at a desk, make words come alive in print, and say what others tell you to say when you get on television. We don't really need these guys out there distracting our military, do we? Just a thought.

Another thing...these press conferences are driving me insane. I swear, the journalists must all get together and say, "Hey, let's drive these people really crazy by asking the SAME question 50 times. But we have to change the wording around each time, so they won't catch on. Oh yeah, and if they say they can't comment on something, let's just keep talking about it. Maybe they'll slip up and actually answer us." Come on people! This is not rocket science. There really are some things we don't necessarily HAVE to know at the exact moment it's happening. War plans being one of them. Geez!

So, the next time you find yourself yelling at the TV because these people are absolute idiots, "rest assured, you're not alone." (Stereofuse)
