"I'll Be Your Lover, Too" by Van Morrison
This is the song at the closing credits for Proof of Life. This song can be found on Van Morrison's album, "His Band and teh Street Choir." Bless the Orang County Library for having it available. Friday, August 29, 2003: 08:50 a.m.

Remeber when...
Remember when the budget was balanced?
I hope the voters heed this warning. Thursday, August 28, 2003: 08:20 a.m.

Liars
I think we agree that all politicians are either outright liars are made liars through circumastance. But at least some politicians lies don't cost people their lives or livelihood. Thursday, August 28, 2003: 08:18 a.m.

Man, I hate organized religion.
I found this on Die Puny Humans, Warren Ellis's site.
Stupid people should not be allowed to breed. They should especially not be allowed to care for an autistic child. Wednesday, August 27, 2003: 11:45 a.m.

Dark chocolate good...

I am such a loser.

You are a Day Dreamer.. Daydreamers tend to be away from the normal, and
have a deeper aspect when looking at things.
Most of the time, thier outcasts of the social
society, but don't worry. It just means your so
deep it scares thier simple little brains.

What kind of Dreamer are you?

What Type of Bishounen are You?
I found this on lauryl.pitas.com's site.

What type of Bishounen are you? Find out at artificial-soul.net by Rin.

Stenarts Studio
Am writing a graphic novel for these guys in Europe. Actually, I am rewriting the whole thing, almost. Feel like I'm on the verge of getting it perfect, but scared nonetheless.
Check out their site and wander around. Very nice artwork. Thursday, August 21, 2003: 09:28 a.m.

Origami
"Whereas Western art focusesd on the freedom to move images around on paper or canvass to create fixed patterns, origami ignores that seperation between image an paper. The paper becomes part of the image, and is twisted and folded until it is the picture, not merely the surface on which it lies." - From "The Artful Universe" by John D. Barrow.

Things in my head
Enjoy your piece of the pie! Pie, pie. Pie in the sky!-rambled the old bastard who stank of stale three day old piss and cigarettes a he danced a jig like a drunken dog learning to walk. I kept walking by, averting my eyes from the crazy smelly fucker. He was fine for entertainment's sake as long as you didn't get a whiff of his flavor. All I wanted was to get by the bastard and into the library. These street guys lived at the library and sometimes I would just stare at them in envy for the great, long hours they had to spend in here with all these vestibules of knowledge and information and pictures. Friday, August 8, 2003: 01:13 p.m.

Solar Sails
I first read about this technology about four years ago. I applaud these guys for taking the matter into their own hands launching this prototype satellite into space themselves. Good luck. Thursday, August 7, 2003: 08:30 a.m.

A Theory of Time
I have always been interested in theoritical physics and this guy is causing a stir with his new theory of Time and how it works. Wednesday, August 6, 2003: 02:26 p.m.

I've had enough of the world and all its craziness for one day, and it's only the morning still. Now that I am completley depressed, I have work to do. Wednesday, August 6, 2003: 08:38 a.m.

This is so wrong.
I don't understand what kind of a man can do this to someone over being rejected. Wednesday, August 6, 2003: 08:35 a.m.

California is so weird
I think porn for pistols says it all. I am not sure if this is an entirely bad idea, and that scares me. Wednesday, August 6, 2003: 08:31 a.m.

Yuo don't know how many times I have wanted to do this.
Sometimes it's just too damn hot. Wednesday, August 6, 2003: 08:28 a.m.

Welcome to the police state.
In case you were wondering if you lived in a police state, here's the deciding factor. I love the smell of fascism in the morning. Wednesday, August 6, 2003: 08:23 a.m.

Culture
I found this article explains what has been going wrong with NASA for sometime now. If you compare it to a lot of corporations you deal with, you'd find that NASA's problem is the same as many companies out there. Don't fear the change. Change is good. Think evolution.

Disney's EPCOT has Space
I have been waiting for this ride to open for three years. On August 15 it will be open to the public and I'll finally get to go into orbit. Monday, August 4, 2003: 10:22 a.m.

Obesity epidemic my a#%!
Do you know why we have an obesity epedimic in the the west? It is because we eat too much food. It's true. Please believe me. Wednesday, July 30, 2003: 02:57 p.m.

Going thirsty in Asia
Come on now! Conservation. Water conservation. Wednesday, July 30, 2003: 02:56 p.m.

This guy is an idiot.
Pointdexter should never have been appointed to this position, but then again, this is the Bush administration. What moron comes up with an idea this stupid. Better yet, let's have a reality TV show about terrorism. If you survive the season, you win money-or stock options! Wednesday, July 30, 2003: 02:51 p.m.

Humanoids Publishing
This company puts out the only monthly I pick up (Metal Hurlant), and in my opinion, worth shelling out over three dollars for. I recently read "The Nikopol Trilogy" and it was great. Just imagine David Lynch writing and drawing a sci fi comic book and that's what "The Nikopol Trilogy" was like. Tuesday, July 29, 2003: 11:34 a.m.

Mirror Mask
Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean have directed a low budget fantasy movie in collaboration with Henson studios for almost no money. I hope this does well, because everything, with the exception of "Spirited Away" and "Children of Dune" has been pretty unremarkable and highly over-budgeted. Tuesday, July 29, 2003: 11:27 a.m.

I fling poo!
The expression on the one on the left is great. Thursday, July 17, 2003: 03:27 p.m.

Finally, someone's spilling the beans.
It's about time someone had the guts, or got into enough trouble and wanted to save their on ass, and told the government and the people about the lies. Thursday, July 17, 2003: 09:38 a.m.

No cancer for me!
I used to call it "practice," but I guess I could have called it cancer prevention. Wednesday, July 16, 2003: 04:19 p.m.

Naughty, naughty monkey!
More monkeys in the news for you. This one was on the lam from the circus. Thursday, July 3, 2003: 08:47 a.m.

Fine champagne
Look what I'm going to get in Paris. Thursday, July 3, 2003: 08:46 a.m.

I don't feel like 45 million dollars.
Wired magazine tells us that our body parts are worth some where around 45 million dollars, provided we would be willing to part with some of them while we are alive. Thursday, July 3, 2003: 08:43 a.m.

What a shocker! (sarcasm)
People don't need this money, big business does! And the state of Florida doesn't need better public transportation, right! Again, why doesn't my vote count! Tuesday, June 24, 2003: 08:32 a.m.

Does anyone care?
I don't read about this or hear about it in the US press, and that worries me. And I have to wonder if my vote actually counts after the last election. Because I know who I voted for and it didn't count for crap. Tuesday, June 24, 2003: 08:28 a.m.

Truck terrorist
This guy should be publicly caned across the shins, then put in prison for at least five years. Friday, June 20, 2003: 10:09 a.m.

Is it getting hot in here or is it just me?
I love it when my vote doesn't count. Friday, June 20, 2003: 10:05 a.m.

Oh, sweet, sweet absinthe!
Look's like this is happenning just in time for me to go to Europe next year. This trip could be a really weird trip. Friday, May 30, 2003: 11:30 a.m.

As far as I know, this is not a joke.
Sick, sad world. I found this on Warren Ellis's site, www.diepunyhumans.com Thursday, May 29, 2003: 03:13 p.m.

More trouble
Like these people do not have enough trouble. Well, here we go again. I say we have a definite enemy in Iran by Christmas. Tuesday, May 27, 2003: 08:05 a.m.

Bull in a china shop?
ACtually it's a bull in an antique shop, but it still sounds weird. Too bad about the bull, though. Tuesday, May 27, 2003: 08:01 a.m.

Devil kangaroo
Strange fossils found in Australia, but what do you expect from a continent that gave us the Koala Bear and the Kangaroo? Tuesday, May 27, 2003: 07:58 a.m.

If it's not one Bush, then it's another
How long do we have to keep getting screwed? At least someone is doing something about one of this family's policies. Thursday, May 22, 2003: 04:21 p.m.

What seems to be the problem officer?
I don't think anything will come of this, but at least we're not all sleeping. Thursday, May 22, 2003: 08:35 a.m.

My car, please!
Would someone be kind enough to buy this car for me, PLEASE? Thursday, May 22, 2003: 08:31 a.m.

No more whining about the money
This is great! Hopefully I won't have to listen to those mildly talented, overpayed pisants complain about how much money they want this year. Thursday, May 22, 2003: 08:16 a.m.

Let's ruin everything
Just a reminder that we're all schmucks. Thursday, May 22, 2003: 08:14 a.m.
