Quello ufficiale non lo dico finché non lo rivedo e considero effettivamente se vale la pena di perdere litri birra gratis per, mh, cos’è che mi può offrire quell’altro? Ah, sì: è un figo della madonna. Solo che la scorsa volta non ho appurato bene se sia un figo della madonna o della Madonna. Se la risposta è la seconda, toccherà rinunciare alle birre gratis.
(Post del 26 giugno)

Rinuncio alle birre gratis, agli shottini, al White Russian e alle manie pseudo-artistiche. Senza rimpianti. Non è solo un figo della Madonna. Egli è un FIGO DELLA MADONNA, con tutte le maiuscole. E non parlo esclusivamente dal punto di vista estetico. See ya il 5 Settembre, mio caro. Sappi che ti rapirò.

Ok so picture the scene, you're feckin roasting hot, it's summer, you're trapped in Moate in an 8 hour tail back. It's Friday evening of a bank holiday. You may actually be roasting alive. And then do do dooo, you turn your head to your companions and say wait a second, I almost forgot about my Foot windows.

Courtesty of possibly the most talented man i've had the privilege of meeting,

I give you foot windows:

The windows open.

You think, how did I ever live without them?

Makes me think of this song:

Tono sarcastico standard

lidalgirl — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 15:13:53 +0000

Stamattina/ ho dato l'esame di Museologia e Museografia/ Leggi dati e informazioni varie/ Una gran rottura di palle. / Il corso in sé/ è stato inutile e latore di nullità/ Ma ha una drammatica lacuna/ L'assistente/ è un giovanotto rigidamente alternativo supponente e antipatico / Se la tira da paura, insomma / e nonostante si cerchi di andargli simpatico/ con una tesina/ non ti si fila per niente / Il lavoro è suo / ma sembra un commesso della Standa / la vigilia di Natale / e sul suo viso campeggia una scritta enorme / “Perché lo faccio? / Non vedi che io non ci vorrei stare qui?” / Parlo dell'aziendalizzazione museale / e gli dico che si attua nella gestione di personale e risorse/ Con la solita faccia / mi risponde col suo tono sarcastico standard/ e dice rassegnato / “Beh, sì, non proprio” / Poi un lampo di vita / Si ridesta dai suoi pensieri troppo alti e scollegati / e mi comunica deciso / “In realtà il processo di aziendalizzazione/ comprende altri aspetti che mi dovrebbe approfondire"/ Ora capisco / Il mio essere in quest'uni / gli trasmette un orientamento politico/ deplorevole/ “Ma io lo so che vuoi che io dica TORNACONTO ECONOMICO / arrogante scribacchino / indegno di Marx, Adorno e Marcuse/ alternativo dei miei coglioni / che quando io vado al Venticinque Aprile / tu sei a prendere il sole al lago” / Me ne vado / me ne vado / e lo odio / Quattro ore dopo / ha finito di interrogare / e il docente legge i voti da lui assegnati / guardalo, quel lurido clerk! / Ecco perché quell’aria da stronzetto compiaciuto! / E tutto torna, alla fine / Lo scemo / voleva una conferma della veridicità delle sue tesi sinistroidi. / Ho preso 27 / scuoto la testa / e vado a registrarlo./ Brutta bestia / l'intellettualismo di sinistra. *

(In realtà quel 27 non me lo sono meritata per niente, ma pure lui s'è divertito a pungolarmi con quel suo "approfondiamo quest'aspetto". Eccheccazzo. Ma vuoi che dopo tre anni di storia dalla prospettiva marxista non sappia come renderti soddisfatto? Int'u culu!)

* mi scusino gli Offlaga Disco Pax ed in particolare Max Collini per il pessimo adattamento della geniale Tono metallico standard ma l'ho sentita prima di dare l'esame e poi la descrizione del gestore del negozio coincide esattamente con il personaggio che è l'assistente.

Orange line, overheard or "We have another 10 weeks of this?"

washwords — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 02:58:17 +0000

Yes, this is an actual conversation I heard on the Orange Line towards New Carrolton. Ah, Washington in the summer... bring on the interns and the summer associates. Some towns have sports talk. We have this (transcribed as closely as I could write on the back of an Express newspaper from my nearby seat)

Obvious summer associate 1 (let's call him L1): The Harvard girl... how old is she?

L2 (yep, another one. I know, in DC. What are the odds?): 30 something.

---LONG PAUSE WHILE L1 AND L2 PONDER HOW OLD HARVARD GIRL IS. IT ALMOST DEFIES EXPLANATION! --

L2: She took some time off. [me and L1, thinking, "ahh. that explains it."

L2: To work for the Cheneys.

L1: What??

L2: She took some time off, to work for the Cheneys.

L1 (and me): !

L2 repeats again.

L1: Really?

L2: Yes. On a Project.

L1: (smirking) which was.... drowning puppies?

L2: (nervous giggle) Well, heh, I really don't know what the project was.

L1: Drowning puppies.

L2: Well, heh, she said that actually he was pretty cool. And that they just, you know, like people, just like, made him look bad but it wasn't like that, she said.

L1: Uhhhh.

L2: Well, I mean that's what she said, that things were like taken out of context and like that McClellan [editor's note: as in Scott McClellan, former White House Press Secretary, the latest to write an expose of life in the Bush White House.] She said, I mean the girl, from Harvard, that McClellan was really a dick, from the start.

L1: McClellan? McClellan's the dick? (Exaggerated laugh.)

L1: So why is she doing what we do now?

L2: Who?

L1: Harvard. You guys are like best buds right?

L2: I don't know. She just wanted like a change I think, but she really liked working for them.

L1: for the Cheneys.

L2: Yes.

L1: killing puppies.

L2: I don't think it was like that.

L1: Are you kidding me? I could never ever work for that guy.

L2: I don't know...

L1: I mean he is horrible. He's a terrible person! Did you hear him telling journalists to "go fuck yourself?"

L2: Heh, see I kinda respect that.

---Train pulls up. Due to an unfortunate series of events, I wind up in a different car. When I get off, fortuitously at the Farragut West, they are getting off, too. As if from a script that most would find unrealistic in its cliched predictability, I hear this:

L1: Wait so you would actually pay money for their concert? Are you serious?

L2: Well, I mean I don't know, maybe.

L1: They are the absolutely worst band in the universe.

-- At that point they fell a little too far behind for me to hear WHICH band was the worst in the universe. I didn't need to. I got the picture.

Happy summer boys!! Hope you're not roomates, too.

Mal di testa ai livelli. Non l'avevo da mesi. Questo non esclude che ascolti comunque il mio solito casino da ricovero. Una mezza droga, tipo. Queste ruvidezze mi fanno sentir proprio bene, anche con la testa che scoppia. Settimana prossima mi arriva il ciddì e saranno cazzi amari in casa perché qualsiasi lettore disponibile supporta gli originali. E poi sarò in clima di preparazione psicologica per il Saphary, quindi penso proprio che verrò odiata assai. Il che è assolutamente perfetto.
Combinato ben poco oggi. Volevo fare due capitoli e ne ho fatto metà del primo, che peraltro avevo già letto mesi fa. Non avessi mal di testa lo finirei adesso, giusto per non sentirmi così una merda. Con me stessa, s'intende. Dato che l'esame è mercoledì e ho fatto nemmeno metà di un libro quando ne ho due. Già che non gli porto la tesina, se poi non so bene tutto il resto è inutile che mi presenti. Va beh che a sentire quanto m'ha detto senza tesina più di 25 non danno, ma a questo punto non me ne frega una beata. Facessero un corso più serio, sarebbe un discorso. Ma dato che la cialtroneria è la loro caratteristica, basta passarlo e amen. Per carità, l'assistente molto radical e poco chic qualche cosa seria ha anche provato a farla, peccato che anziché due lezioni a settimana ne faceva una perché aveva i suoi cazzi. Del docente non ne parliamo anche perché ho seguito metà di una sua lezione più gli inizi di altre due o tre. Poi sono uscita sulle scale anti-incendio con gli altri a cazzeggiare. Le volte successive siamo direttamente andati al bar o dal porco. Mi è stato riferito comunque che ho fatto bene. Il tizio parlava di cose a caso per suo diletto. Peccato che se faccio lo stesso al suo esame non vale.
Penso si sia capito che il mio interesse per le lezioni dei due tizi sia la causa della mia scarsa voglia di approcciarmi ai due libri. Proporzionalità diretta, of course. I meccanismi logici umani si spiegano tutti con la proporzionalità diretta e inversa, e questo è l'unico motivo buono per studiarle a tempo debito.
Dopo questa perla di saggezza posso solo proseguire sull'onda della cazzate a catena.
Dunque. Mia sorella oggi mentre facevamo, o meglio, mentre facevo, la polvere in camera mi ha chiesto così ex-abrupto (Silvi se non vuol dire un cazzo perdonami ma due anni senza Cicerone si sentono): "Ma te hai il tipo? La tua situazione sentimentale come va?".
E secondo voi cosa potevo fare se non scoppiarle a ridere in faccia??? Poi mi sono ricomposta e le ho risposto: "Ma no, ma ti pare? La mia situazione è di merda...Cioè, alla fine cazzo se ne frega, con tutte le cose a cui ho pensare...e poi tanto parto fra un mese...ché tanto sarà un delirio per i nervi, ma comunque..."
Non volevo perdere la faccia con la mia strafighissima sorella e dirle che in ogni caso ho deciso quale sarà il mio sposo, ed è solo questione di parlarne con lui. In realtà sono due, ne ho uno di riserva, non si sa mai che il primo non acconsenta alla mia proposta. Ma penso sia abbastanza impossibile che dica di no. Voglio dire, si tratta di me, ME!, mica una qualsiasi... In ogni caso, la riserva ha comunque molto da offrire, sottolineo offrire. Sabato sera ha già cominciato a farlo anche se in modo del tutto inconsapevole, nel senso che non sa che è candidato a diventare mio marito se quell'altro dovesse dir di no. E io che son donna di mondo, so che è meglio preparare il terreno prima. E poi vodka e kahlua stanno molto bene assieme.
Nel caso non fosse chiaro: la riserva è il barista di fiducia dello Stalin. Un uomo che sa a memoria tutti i cd che mette, in particolare i Cypress Hill, ma che ogni tanto ci regala il best della Carrà.
Quello ufficiale non lo dico finché non lo rivedo e considero effettivamente se vale la pena di perdere litri birra gratis per, mh, cos'è che mi può offrire quell'altro? Ah, sì: è un figo della madonna. Solo che la scorsa volta non ho appurato bene se sia un figo della madonna o della Madonna. Se la risposta è la seconda, toccherà rinunciare alle birre gratis.

Ci tengo a precisare che non ho bevuto nulla, manco il caffé, dato il mal di testa. Che però è passato ora. La cura "casino da ricovero" ha funzionato...

Sono uscita dall'uni stamattina che mi cantavano anche gli occhi. Fortuna che avevo i miei fedelissimi occhialoni da agente segreto o più semplicemente molto tamarri, così ho evitato la figura dell'ebete giuliva.
E mentre cercavo di attraversare in fretta, perché i semafori della circonvallazione esterna sono, come dire, alquanto rapidi, pensavo che Hold on, because you're strong dovrei trasformarlo nel mio mantra personale. Magari scrivermelo su una maglietta. O scriverlo su una parete della mia futuribile casa. Perché è la verità, in fondo. Perché in certi momenti me lo scordo ma è innegabile che sia così. Che in realtà la mia anima è di acciaio. So resistere, e resisto. Mi distruggo pezzo per pezzo. Ma poi mi ricostruisco da capo. Ex novo. Perché in fondo si tratta giusto di trovare la spinta adatta. La spinta, le motivazioni, gli spunti. Qualche piccola soddisfazione. Una giornata andata bene, in cui nessuna delle cose in programma ha presentato intoppi. Piccole sorprese.
Si ricomincia, un'altra volta.
E chi se ne frega che non sarà quella definitiva...

And it's not because it's my birthday month but because the first baby of the group will be out on that month. Well, I don't mean it to sound like it's a new release or something. I'm so happy and excited and oh just so happy! Everyone's fussing about him/her (I really hope he's a he :D) Everyone just can't wait! I should have one of those site counters. hahaha! ;p

Fattori di sconvolgimento

Il fatto che certa gente abbia conservato il mio numero di cellulare nonostante si siano totalmente interrotti i rapporti fra noi suscita in me lo stesso effetto della notizia della gravidanza di Aida Yespica: indifferenza.
Al contrario, scoprire che Voulez-vous dancer avec moi?* è dei Ricchi e Poveri, quello sì che mi cambia la vita: devo aggiungere un altro buon motivo per cui la loro presenza nella scena musicale italiana è stata una tragedia che andava evitata.

*per la cronaca, è il brano con cui la Rio Mare ci ossessiona da anni.

UPDATE di qualche minuto dopo.
Eh già, sono proprio un essere spregevole. Dovrei avere la nausea ogni volta che mi guardo allo specchio. Spregevole, insensibile, e priva di umanità. Sì, sono una grandissima stronza, e quindi? Devo sentirmi in colpa per questo?
Ma assolutamente no.

La Panda è un'agile vettura in grado di cambiare repentinamente corsia e di sorpassare nei viali anche quando lo spazio è esiguo. E questo è stato abbondantemente dimostrato ieri sera.
Le colonne sonore dei miei viaggi non sono famose, ma forse sì, sono disturbanti per gli altri, ma meravigliosamente piacevoli per me. E questo è stato abbondantemente dimostrato ieri sera.
La mia autoradio vive di vita propria e preferisce alcune band ad altre. E questo è stato abbondantemente dimostrato ieri sera.
La vodka lemon è gradevole ad ogni sorso, il gin stomachevole alla sola zaffata. Allungare la sangria col gin è una pessima idea. E questo è stato abbondantemente dimostrato ieri sera.
Alcuni miei compagni di uni sono decisamente facce di merda, altri invece brave persone. E anche questo è stato abbondantemente dimostrato ieri sera.
Non tutti siamo capaci di dissociare ormoni e neuroni, almeno qualche volta. E questo non è stato dimostrato ma semplicemente riaffermato ieri sera.
I serpenti tentatori sono sempre dentro di noi. E anche questo è stato affermato, discusso e dimostrato ieri sera.
Non tutte siamo capaci di tenere i capelli tirati su tutto il tempo senza sentire tirare la cute e soffrire in modo maledetto. E anche questo è stato dimostrato ieri sera.
Alcune persone per fortuna sopravvivono alle tempeste esistenziali e restano, o se non altro restano la stima e l'affetto reciproco. E anche questo è stato dimostrato ieri sera.
La bolgia riserva sorprese e le solite ghignate. E pure questo è stato dimostrato ieri sera.
Grace is lost è un pezzo della madonna. E Hold on è una delle mie canzoni preferite in assoluto. E anche questo è stato dimostrato stasera.
Certa gente non può fare a meno di serate mezze storte e di svegliarsi il giorno dopo con la testa ondeggiante e l'equilibrio temporaneamente a spasso. C'è chi lo fa per noia, chi per professione, e chi né l'uno né l'altro, lo fa per passione. Ennesima cosa dimostrata ieri sera.

I've never been happier in my entire life. It seems as though all the pieces of the puzzle have finally gone together. Ryn is the most amazing person i have ever met. Being with her makes it impossible for me not to have a smile on my face. I am the luckiest guy in the world. Not one other girl in the world could compare to her. WOW Yesterday/early today...very early...........we were on the phone for 5+ hours, but of course we didn't talk constantly during those hours. I just loved being on the phone with her, knowing she was on the other side of the line, and being able to say something to her as soon as it came to my mind. I've become really lazy recently, and i haven't worked at all. I have to hear it from my parents constantly. It is so annoying. All i can say to my mom is go get a job yourself and then annoy me about working. That is terrible though and she had a hard enough job raising me. I had trouble written all over me as a child. I broke things, colored on walls, and pretty much wreaked havoc on anything possible. It is a miracle my mom didn't go pyscho and kill me or at least abandon me at some random store. Gotta love my mom for that lol

GASP Orientation starts June 25th for me. I wish i had scheduled it waaaaaaay later now like as late as you could. I sure screwed up again. I am not looking forward to it at all. I'm not looking forward to college at all as well. I will miss certain indviduals way to much. I don't know if i will be able to survive. I also wish i could go to a different college, but i had to go to the one that would end up being the most affordable. I know that i would get along better with the population of other colleges, but i can't dwell on what will never be.....well not never since transferring will be an option i just might consider. I wish orientation was only ONE day.....when you pass the one day mark it is just FUCKING overkill. C'mon do you really think i want to be at U of M for more than a day yet.......because i dont. I don't think i will ever possess school spirit for any school i attend ever. It is just too annoying to me. LOL I am going to have no friends next year....everybody is going to be like WTF is that dude's problem. IDC lol....well i can say that now but of course i will care later and i will probably act differently from what i say now....what i say and what i do can differ greatly.....depending on what im saying and what it is about....i dont lie to individuals i care about so i will do what i say in that circumstance.

Onward with this seemingly neverending rant....omg it is 3:43 a.m. on Friday 13th....y am i still up writing this.....y am i not tired.....y do i want to waste another $80 on sunglasses....y did my 360 break....y is my middle name Ross.....y do i act so stupid late at night....y do i like taco bell so much...y do i think the things i do....y am i asking questions..........im finally starting to get tired...YES

OH CRAP......................i need to get a birthday present.....it has to be good......oh and i should probably get a father's day gift too....but im not worried about disappointing my father.....im terrible.
so i guess the mall today after i wake up around 1 maybe 2.....i hope my sister doesnt tag along.......i dont like her input and it means i will be at the mall too long
i was at twelve oaks for like 3 or more hours wednesday....not cool....and i didnt get a present then....i swear i can over think things way too much sometimes and put them off too long
my budget is like $150.....that's pretty much...sufficient i think.....id probably get in trouble if i did spend that much.....ill try not to

OH i cant wait to get my xbox 360 back. It's funny that this year i haven't really played it at all, and then it broke. I think it was mad at me lol Hopefully, i dont pick the habit back up when i get it back. Im not worried though.....my priorities have shifted

what else can i say............................ahhhhhhhhhh.............voila..............i can apologize......................i feel as though i may have hurt a couple of people this year............im really sorry.........im truly not who you thought i was though and you never really knew me........we just never really clicked in the way that would let me be myself........and im trying to only surround myself with people i can be myself around.....i dont want to be friends with people i act fake around......what would be the point?......Would any sides benefit from it?...i dont think so.........i wish i could be a better person..... i wish i could help yall with your problems.....i wish i could be there.....but in the end of the day i am me and i just cant.....i rly dont like drama that much....i get it from my momma hehehe......and i couldnt overlook certain things....they were just too much.....and i know that i am the one who is at a loss not yall.......im the one losing something.......but better me than yall.....i would have disappointed........i would have ended up sayin somethin mean......i learned certain things from certain people and i couldnt continue being friends.......yall r lucky u dont have to deal wit me.......ask my parents....im a burden............i wish the best to those i am apologizing to.........i hope yall find happiness......hopefully things go ur way......live life to its fullest and notice the little things in life that bring joy.......wow that was stupid

4 am it is now.....................my eyelids r starting to get heavy finally....what else is there to rant about.........Yahtzee......damn u mr. C i never wanted to end up doing that........BASKETBALL
HOW THE FUCK DID THE LAKERS BLOW THAT LEAD?
Celtics deserve the damn championship now definitely.....hell they are up 3-1 so they only have to win one more game
up by 20 somethin points and u blow it in the 3rd quarter....terrible....they did not show the composure of champions and thus that is why it seems now that the celtics will surely win the title
OH YEAH lol my team the chicago bulls somehow got the #1 pick.....that was so lucky....or was it rigged?
idc as long as they get the pick......they better pick derrick rose or im going to be mad....i think he is going to be good....bulls need to make a trade too
they sucked this year and terribly disappointed me

I have noticed that my sentence structure and grammar have gotten progressively worse as i have continued to write this.

Listened to Lil' Wayne's Tha Carter III........it was pretty good i must say.....lol i definitely skipped lollipop though.....ive already listened to that song so many times

On another note concerning music..............i saw The Raconteurs in concert..........THEY FUCKIN ROCKED.....damn that was great.......Jack White came home to Detroit and he did not disappoint....
i loved their new albulm this year Consolers of the Lonely...i've listened to it numerous times......i loved Broken Boy Soilders too......Shit The White Stripes is my favorite of it's kind of genre and then The Raconteurs is second.....i think i just love everything Jack White does!!!

Okay this has nothing to do with anything but im going to cross back to Rap/Hip-Hop and say one of my favorite albulms of that genre is The Love Below...... love Andre 3000......after that i would probably say one of eminems albulms cuz they mean a lot to me...probably marshall mathers lp maybe the eminem show...idk then idk cuz i love a whole bunch of other albulms too much to pick...idk i loved Graduation tho lol

y can't i stop...y am i not tired enough to go to sleep yet............lol i think i heard the newspaper get delivered a little bit ago

i have touched sports and dabbled a little into the area of music.....hmmmm what else.......AHHHHHH HAAAA....FOOD

FAVORITE DESSERT: PIE.........cake aint got nuthin on pie.....NOPE...........my mom has passed a strong liking of stwaberry rhubarb pie on to me so i would chose that for firstbut after that i LOVE ALL PIE YA KNOW
2nd favorite dessert = BROWNIES
SNACKAGE: IDK lol i like everything but i know i must not eat what i love anymore cuz i have no self control and i know how i am and how i ate growing up.....so i tend to stray to the healthy side for snackage....im real lame but i enjoy being skinny so hey oh well
Fruits: love apples, oranges, definitely strawberries, grapes, peaches, watermelon, pears r good, oh yeah and cherries and banannas

I Still Dream of Coron

lizie — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 03:28:09 +0000

The moment my boss mentioned the idea that the company outing would be in Palawan, my mind never stopped weaving images of white sand beaches and clear blue waters. I secretly wished that it would push through and it did!

We rode a ship (Superferry's Our Lady of Good Voyage) going to Coron. I had the experience to ride a ship before to Cebu so I wasn't very jittery, I actually felt kind of excited.

The ship left the South Manila Harbor at around quarter to five in the afternoon so my officemates and I trooped to the top deck to watch as the ship went farther away from the harbor and into the open sea (which is a bothering thought for me)

I was able to have a sound sleep despite the idea that the group beside our bunks were kind of noisy. I woke up at around 4am. Lhove and I stayed on the upper part of the ship where you can have a view of the sea. We waited for an hour and a half to witness a breathtaking sunrise. An hour and a half later, we arrived at the Pier of Coron. It was a 12 hour travel from Manila to Coron, Palawan.

We stayed in Coron Village Lodge for the two days we were there. The food were all sumptuous. We had lunch on beaches and they serve snacks too. It was heaven! Here are some of the destinations we visited:

The Maquinit Hot Spring

Kayangan Lake (voted as the Cleanest Lake in Asia thrice)

Banol Beach (strips of white sand)

Mt. Tapyas (Climb the 780 steps to see an exhilirating view of the town and the surrounding islands)

Calumbuyan Beach (tree lined white sand beach)

Gun boat ship wreck

I wasn't able to take a decent photo of the Barracuda lake because the steep climb must've made me forget. haha! I also got to experience snorkelling and was awed by the underwater sites of coral gardens and different kinds of fishes. You can find other Coron photos here.

I spent the banca trip back to the Lodge staring at the setting sun. It might be the last time I'd be in the place. It was quite a trip and I don't mind a part two. ;p

If you have plans of taking the Coron adventure, I suggest you try to visit the Coron Village Lodge website and check out their tour packages.

I really love the first book and now, it'll be shown on the big screen. I can't wait.

BBC SPORT | Other Sport... | American Football | Owens' ban upheld by arbitrator

Edward — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 10:56:02 +0000

Owens publicly criticised the Eagles and team-mate McNabbTerrell Owens' season is effectively over after an arbitrator ruled the Philadelphia Eagles were justified in suspending him for four games.

Owens, 31, was suspended on 5 November for criticising the Eagles, quarterback Donovan McNabb and for fighting with former team-mate Hugh Douglas.

Two days later, the Eagles extended the suspension to four games.

The Eagles were adjudged to have clearly proved the suspension was justified by the arbitrator.

Philadelphia, currently struggling at 4-6 at the bottom of the AFC East, have made it clear they want Owens to play no further part in their season.

In a statement, the club said: "From this point, we look forward to moving on and will have no further comment on this issue."

Owens is seen as one of the best wide receiver in the league, but the Eagles - who lost last season's Super Bowl to New England - have made it clear they are content to let him go.

The player had been unhappy since the off-season, when the Eagles refused to renegotiate his seven-year, $48m contract.

The NFL Players Association had argued that the suspension should be reduced and wanted to force the Eagles to either play Owens or release him.

Finally after a week, I'll finally be able to post a decent entry about my first real summer getaway. My college friends and I trooped down south to for our summer outing. I'm so thankful that it didn't rain so hard. Actually the downpour was on the latter part of the trip so it was okay. We're not complete, only ten people attended the outing but it was really a lot of fun. We stayed at Dalampasigan beach resort. I really don't like swimming in the sea so I was their photographer. :D I maximized the pool, though. Good thing, the place wasn't so packed.

The next day, Sunday, we ate lunch at Kamayan sa Palaisdaan, where the eating area is floating. It's really nice place and they served good food. We had sisig, sinigang na sugpo, laing and inihaw na baboy. sarap! and we visited the Tayabas church that was said to have the longest aisle in the country. Well, I have to agree. The church was magnificent with its beautiful wooden ceilings. My knees literally wobbled as we climbed 300 steps up the kamay ni Hesus grotto.

Well, we ended the day by buying pasalubong. I especially like Lucban longganisa at ang walang kamatayang buko pie. :D Next in our list, Christmas Party na sana daw out of town and would require riding a plane. Sana matuloy. haha!

For more photos jump to here, here and here. :D

You know you love it....

This is simply the greatest piece of music/dance/transendence ever laid to celluloid........or 0s and 1s.

In fact, I'd like to start a global campaign. "LET'S MAKE THIS A DANCE!"

Yello Oh yeah

You're looking at a back to back flyer, people. It might not seem like it but yes, it's actually a flyer and I made the layout. I was especially happy mid last week because finally it was mass printed already! Whee!! It's not the best design , I know but it's just so great it got printed for the whole world 20,000 people to see. It's so awesomely legendary! Hahaha!

Don't Come Around Here No More

Hello.

John Edwards made a speech last night. It went something like this:

"There is one man who knows and understands that this is a time for bold leadership. There is one man that knows how to create the change, the lasting change, that you have to build from the ground up," Edwards said. "There is one man who knows in his heart there is time to create one America, not two..." And that man is--

Alan Greenspan??

Warren Buffett??

William Easterly??

Noooo, Barak Obama.

Edwards, after waiting months to see how the race would turn out, has thrown all of his political weight, all 20 ounces, behind Obama. And he did it right here in the Mich.

Are you (radio edit) kidding me? I smell ploy. Big, billowing clouds of political ploy wafting all over the west side of this state. Seriously, one whole side of our mitten is now covered in snake oil. Someone call the Nature Conservancy I think we have a disaster site that needs cleaning.

These two couldn't be arsed when it came to the problems with our primary. They blithely stuck with Howard Dean and his mindless drones at the DNC in their quest to disenfranchise Michigan voters. They punished every voter in this state because our primary date was moved. Obama has gone so far as to suggest he get half of the delegates. Even though he refused to put his name on our ballot. Now they're grandstanding in Grand Rapids?

Ya know who else visited Grand Rapids? George W Bush. Dick Cheney. John McCain. Bono. Ya know why they go to Grand Rapids? Because, Lansing, Detroit and Ann Arbor won't allow them past the city limits. They have standards. While Grand Rapids is the Babylonian whore of Michigan cities.

The new financial center of our state is located in Grand Rapids. If one wishes to cull the political newbies who control or have large amounts of cash, Grand Rapids is the place to do it. Not to mention, it being the home of one of our most benign and lovably forgettable Presidents, it tends to make a statement. Which statement I'm not sure. Maybe something like "I'm a political hack who wants you to equate me with President Ford." or maybe "See, I'm a harmless conservative" or "Give me all your money."

My position is this: When I see Obama in a pair of old jeans, hosting a rally in Flint, shaking hands with Michael Moore and holding a steaming hot pasty, then I might lighten up.

But watching these two slick snakes spend a night patting one another on the back in OUR state is just tasteless and petty.

Tom Petty.

Because as I watched events unfold this is what went through my head:

Don't come around here no more

Whatever you're looking for

Give it up

Hey!

Give it up

And now I can't get that damn song out of my head.

One more thing to hate them for.
