Silence

silence

a moment is all that i ask

out of respect for loved ones lost

take this time
this precious time
and use it to honor their passing
reflect on life
on love

take this time


take this time
to forget about yourself
and your daily routine
stop everything and think
remember what's important

go on

take as little

or as much time as you need

just so long as you take the time to hear the silence

Light can be fun

Some say tomfoolery


Others say art

Little project I helped with

My current background, pieced together by me.

KOW

Yesterday I found out that my best friend from High School had passed away on his birthday, last Saturday. I feel numb, even though we had lost touch over the years every time we saw each other it was just like old times. We would chat and always end the conversation with mention that we should hang out more. Time got the better of it and now its too late. I miss him already.

I just had an accident in my pantalons

The above video which no longer works was a "bootleg" trailer for the movie TRON 2. For those of you who don't know the first Tron was released in 1982.

Here the IMDB description:

Programmer Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges) has been swindled. His former colleague Ed Dillinger (David Warner) stole the ideas for several popular arcade games from Flynn. Flynn is sure that if he can get inside his old company, he can successfully crack the system and find the stolen code -- proving that it's his.

His plan goes well at first. With help from Alan Bradley (Bruce Boxleitner) and Lora (Cindy Morgan), he gets into the company, and starts poking around the computer system. But he has not counted on Dillinger's powerful artificial intelligence, the Master Control Program (MCP). The MCP is self-aware, and instantly realizes what Flynn is up to. Rather than see his human patron ruined, the MCP uses an experimental laser to "digitize" Flynn, turning him into a computer file, which is then in at his mercy.

All of the programs in the System appear to be humans, with the faces of their creators and glowing lines on their unisex costumes. SARK, a control program (who looks like Dillinger) is tasked with eliminating Flynn. The MCP wants Flynn to be run through a series of game programs, where he will be "de-res'd" (deleted) upon being defeated. Flynn, a pretty good video game player, survives his first challenge.

He is imprisoned with TRON, a monitoring program Alan Bradley wrote, but that the MCP keeps safely locked away. Their next challenge gives them an opportunity to escape, and after defeating their MCP-allied opponents, they flee on "light-cycles." Flynn gradually learns that as a programmer, he has magic powers in this world. He is able to resurrect dying programs, rebuild broken vehicles, etc. Eventually, he decides to confront the MCP directly and heads toward the center of the system.


I remember watching this movie as a kid and wanting nothing more than my very own light cycle. Still do actually.

Every day I am reminded what great friends I have. Some of them may lack the tenacity that I require for everyday "normality",
but that's OK.

(stolen from Sky to express today)

I have little to self control when it comes to certain things. I need to get things back on track. I was doing so well and then caved in last night. Now I hate myself for it. Such is life I guess.

bloging under the influence

never turns out good

ya ya

I know how to geet down und boogie ya?

panoramic intrusions
misbegotten arrangements


the thrill of this pain in exhilarating

in the morning

3:45 am
and I am walking down empty city streets
the ground is wet
clouds overhead drifting effortlessly across the spotlight moon
and somewhere deep in the distance
a car alarm peals
then silence surrounds me
with nothing but my foot steps to listen to
I begin to hum a tune I haven't thought about in years
slowly the words come back to me
and before to long
I am singing to myself

sick busy tired

As of late I have been one of those three things.

backhanded sentiments

Pronoun
pro.noun (prō'noun')-
The part of speech that substitutes for nouns or noun phrases and designates persons or things asked for, previously specified, or understood from the context.

pronouns are great aren't they, you can use them every day and I know most of you probably do. Rather than using someones name when writing something negative about them, try a pronoun. Its easy here let me show you.

What you want to say but are afraid that the subject of your rant may read it and become upset:

"I hate Jeremiah, he's so full of himself, what a fuck head!"

How using pronouns keeps everyone guessing as to who you are talking about leaving you as free as you like to bash whomever you like:

"I hate him, he's so full of himself, what a fuck head."

Here's another example:
I don't know who RayRay is anymore, ever since he met Connie he has been ignoring me.

And our new non offensive version:
I don't know who he is anymore, ever since he met her he has been ignoring me




See, when you use pronouns you are free to write whatever you want, everyone will be so stupefied by your grammatical skills they won't be the least bit offended, upset, hurt etc by what you wrote.

There are many many many more ways to use pronouns, and you guessed it, most of them can be used one way or another to bash people without them knowing you are talking about them. Go on check it out.

I tried to take an "epic" picture of my and Mikael's drinks. I think it turned out ok.

ulterior motives

spandex and windex
and all the things in between
what was said
and unsaid
is just as important as melted wax

at the end of the day
communication has broken down
the water under the bridge has dried out
and our lives must go on

I have been taking pictures of the roses in our complex, we have a variety of colors to choo choo choose from.
