Introductory note - I go into serious stuff about war towards the end. I don't wanna make you all bummed without some, well, warning.
So there's a new reference dept head...and it's not me. However, it IS a name from my past, someone who worked in Fairfax Libraries, and I believe she's a techie, knows a lot about computers. That would kick so much ass!...

Hello, everyone. I just took a day off from SuicideGirls, partially cuz my back is starting to hurt in front of the computer, partially cuz I was greakin tired, and partially cuz I wanted to read fiction for a change...
The book in question was Jennifer Government by Max Barry. I've read about 40-50 pages, and I like it so far. It is satire. It...

Yeah, you know, I could SAY that I would have been down with a one-word answer, but the truth is, I preferred it with the parenthetical disclaimer.
Ah, Quentin Crisp....

I should be writing something interesting, but I'm in a bit of a space-out mode since I am job interviewing tomorrow. Since I am interviewing to be in MANAGMENT, I have no FREAKING idea what will be asked, or what to say, other than, "I believe that my experiences with supervision of volunteers makes me an apt candidate for the duties of this position." Or...

I don't know what I'd do. I'd probably set them free, hahaha

Sex baby, it's all about sex. I'd have my own personal harum and they'd roll me in oil, rub me down and generally just make me a happy man 24/7.
I'm having an ORANGE SABBATH.

Life in turmoil
Life disintegrating
Life out of balance

Amy Sedaris isn't in Chicago. Is she? I didn't see it. I left after Richard Gere attempted tap dancing. It got scary.

Dude, you appear to be in a major funk. I think you need a stiff drink (maybe 2) and to spin some funky records. After all, none of this is real anyway...you did see The Matrix, right? Keanu Reeves wouldn't lie.
It's so weird to turn to every channel and see the skyline of a city, which every station is filming because, at some point, some rockets or bullets might fly out of it....or into it.
...it must be weirder still to be living in that city.

Well, I knew what the song was in my head, but I sometimes have these cognitive slip-ups. Today, I was bitching about something Bill O'Reilly said, and I called him Phil instead. Probably because Dr. Phil was on TV this morning.
Eh. Brain farts.

I rented two movies.
One of them is Jesus' Son. When it came out, I thought about seeing it, but I was worried by the perception I got from reviews that it was "about" drug use or rehab. I have to say (this ties in with what I wrote on Morgan's journal) seeing people do drugs or drink is not my idea of a fascinating...

i still have all the action figures from the movie they are beat to shit but i still hold them in high regard and when i was in florida a few years back i went to planet hollywood and they had the actual V.I.N.C.E.N.T.
i have a pic of it maybe i will post it when i get a scanner
2 other things
1 you are so right about older sci-fi todays stuff while sometimes good looks to clean and sci-fi has always been about looking rough in my opinion
2 i found Ghost Dog really boring and one of the few films i was unable to stay awake to just didnt pull me in and based on your review i think i will skip Jesus' Son altogether

I watched a debate over the weekend...CSpan fudged the broadcast on Sat night, then continued it on Sunday...and I fudged the VCR, put it on the wrong speed, and the tape cut off before it ended! I originally tuned in to see Mr Christopher Hitchens. By the end, I was a fan of Michael Ignatieff.

My favorite quote from W's address to the nation was this:
"We are a peaceful nation."
Enough said; let your mind spin out of control as it should.

That's exactly what my professor sounds like, except he isn't funny. Woody Allen used to be funny, it's true. Go rent Bananas.
A couple of corrections of perhaps incorrect perceptions from my last couple of posts....
1) When I said Oksana's book could show you how to be a better person....um, a bit of an overstatement. Those passages I quoted were beautiful and thoughtful, and she is too, but the book is a grab bag. It is mostly blah parts on the skating tour, and some of...

Oops, I almost forgot to post today. I'm gonna watch Christopher Hitchens in a lil bit on cable. I assume, with his dislike of dictators, Hitchens is gonna argue for war against Iraq. I believe he has before.
I'm against war with Iraq, in consideration of the deaths it'll cause and the bad blood it'll stir between the USA and the mideast (AND now it...

I had 3 cockateils, one died about a week ago. They're medium sized birds, and live in a large cage. I let them out sometimes, but not for long, because of the cats.
For the most part all my pets get along. The cats like the birds a little too much, and I don't think the rat and the gerbils would get along to well.

Love the new pic - penguins rule.
I missed my city's protest march a couple of weeks ago - wish I had gone. I think you'll look back in years to come and know that you did the right thing in protesting.
