Thoughts.

Quote from a John Denvers video posted on youtube: "John Denver is not given the credit he deserves. He must have been one of the greatest song writers AND SINGERS of the last century, but so few people appreciated his work. I don't know why. I have seldom heard anything betetrt han his work.- andyandymax"

Really now?  Why do people say things like this??  This one video has over 3 million views, for a man who's been dead for over 10 years.  He won numerous music awards.  Maybe you, sir, do not give him the credit he "deserves"?  I, for one, find John Denvers boring.

I keep on voting, and they keep not counting my vote.  I think Bill Hicks said something witty about chosing the puppet on the left, or the puppet on the right.  That pretty much sums it up.  

"Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves."
Bill Hicks
 That also sums it up.

It's a little sad that Bill Hicks died over 15 years ago and his comedy is still so relevent today.  Perhaps he was before his time, but I'd hate to think we aren't progressing.  Shouldn't things begin to feel out of date? Are we living in circles?

 

And then there was this...

I'm not even sure what to make of that.

Anyway,  COMING SOON!  More Documentary film reviews!

The problem with global warming: Totally Solved.

I was feeling very altruistic on my drive home the other day and was trying to come up with a solution for global warming.  So, I thought deeply about the problem.

The real problem is... global warming guilt.  And where does this guilt come from?  The media telling us we should care about future generations.

I have a 4 step problem with global warming solution:

1. Don't have kids
2. Don't become attached to any younger people

3. Don't become attached to any long-lived animals such as koi or tortoises 
4. Don't find yourself liking any trees or plants or anything.  I suggest working up a good hatred towards nature and going outside.


I also suggest you don't get doe-eyed when you see polar bears.  Believe me, they don't care about you.

As for any current global warming problems?  I'VE never SEEN a tsunami, so I'm not even sure they exist.

Guilt resolved.

Welcome to my pity-party.

Sometimes life sucks.  I got swine flu last week, and if that wasn't enough of a slap in the face, I came home very grouchy from work on Monday to find someone had broken into our apartment and robbed us.

Some worthless peice of shit widdled their scumfucked way into my place of residence and took things which belong to me.  I'm going to give myself a little while to feel angry and violated.  You can watch this video in the meantime...



How DO you stay faithful in a room full of hoes?  Someone has to ask the tough questions...

Anyway, back to my flu/robbery.  We called the police who came over to our apartment, stared at the door knob, and wrote down about how I saw trouble-making teens a few weeks ago.  I certainly didn't get the impression the Malden Police department were going to call in some CSI shit and get back my stuff though.

I'll take a few more minutes of pity-party now... 










Well, before I start feeling too much like life just wants to get me down, let's look at the facts of my situations.

On June 11, 2009 the World Health Organization (WHO)  declared a global pandemic of H1N1 (swine) flu was underway.  Did I think I was pandemic-proof??  No one is pandemic proof.  That's the point.

According to WHO there have been 622,482 confirmed cases of H1N1 world wide.  Though regions are no longer being required to report cases therefore this is most likely a drastic under-estimation. 

I should feel blessed I didn't get bird flu... that shit REALLY kills people.  According to WHO as many as 60% of people who contract H5N1 (bird) flu have died. 

Bright side to swine flu?  I didn't have bird flu.

So anyway, some bottom-feeding-shit-wads stole things which belong to Wesley and I.  Which aparently is called "burglary" by crime statisticians since they broke into our apartment to take it.   And before I go feeling special about myself there were 306 burglaries in Malden in 2008, which is actually a drop from 2007 which saw 387. 

Anyway, we as Americans should be jumping for joy really because according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics (did you know that existed?) out of every 1,000 households 110 were burglarized in 1973 and only 26.3 were burglarized in 2008.  Do we have more pitbulls and guns?  I don't know, but that is a dramatic improvement.  These numbers can be seen here.

Bright side? While population density may be disgustingly on the rise, crimes against property in the U.S. are actually on the decline.

And now some British humor...

Political Analysis.

I was reading about Richie's feud with Malia Obama. 

I have concluded that a.) this is child abuse and b.) he resulted to fighting fire with fire, which is never a good idea.

I'm also going to go ahead and dispell any (old) myths that Michelle Obama is pregnant.  I take anything the Oprah conglomerate tells me as fact (as do 99.9% of Americans) so I think it's the best news source to present in this case.

And c.) above listed BBB blog entry is an attack on America and our freedoms.  Unpatriotic.

Why do you hate America?
