Whereas this morning I was clicking around SG some and I came across Amanda's page, and read her highly amusing list of various things that annoy her, and whereas I am a wholly unoriginal buttkissing copycat sycophant, I shall now treat the matter of a few little pet peeves of mine. Or perhaps what I should say is now I will push out the frontiers...

Article I. I agree that most people that drive SUVs do so irresponsibly. Why should you drive a car that gets 12-15 mpg when you can purchase a vehicle that gets 20 plus mpg, assuming you need the space of a larger vehicle. The one thing to remember is that the U in SUV stands for utility. If you truly have a need for the vehicle, such as for business use, then I can understand. Of course much "business" that takes place in this country is completely inefficient and wasteful, or kind of unnecessary, in my opinion. I happen to be one of those people that drives an SUV, a big one, for work in the construction field. It has the space for loading tools or materials, as well as the ability to tow. I'm shopping for a new(er) truck that is more fuel efficient as we speak. wink

Article II. Motorcycles are everywhere.

Article III. There are plenty of suitable homes to be had out there. It seems that there is no creativity when it comes to the use of existing housing stocks in established areas. The view of most builders is that bigger is better, and wrap it in plastic! Just mow down a field or stand of trees and build tacky, boring, inefficient boxes for the masses. As stated above, the waste in the construction industry is absurd, criminal really. This is a very important issue for me. I am striving to be a part of the solution on this one by being creative in design, construction, and management of projects. Unfortunately, it takes a bit of money to play the game, but I'm making very good progress toward being a "player" of a different breed in the construction business.

Article IV. You can snap out of it. Just remember that anyone who wants to criticize you or hurt you or talk shit about you can get fucked.

Article V. Shit, shit shit, fuck! bok

Hello there, expansive readership of mine. Today was a milder day in the winter of my discontent. Once I asked my shrink if there was a named neurosis, corresponding to such deep pessimism as I get rather bogged down in. She said no, which was disappointing. But today, for no particular reason, was a milder day.

Had to throw out a musty old mat I...

Didja ever notice that the Vices bar on your update/profile page is one of the widest bars they give you? You get just a single line bar for your favorite movies or books, but three lines for your vices. The builders of this site must have had high expectations of us.

Greetings, hypothetical reader of my journal, thank you for stopping by.

Today I hung about umass after my class this afternoon to see a guest lecturer who's trying for a position in the department I'm taking a class in. I'm trying to get a position in that department myself, as a grad student, therefore I go to such events as this to make myself visible,...

Hello, hypothetical reader of my journal.

A couple of months ago before I joined the site there was a sort of game of tag wherein the tagees were to list twenty interesting facts about themselves. It may be a bit lame to do such a thing without having been tagged first, but the time is past when that was going round and it might be...

Well, I'm figuring this out, at last. Got my profile pic uploaded, hopefully it will still be there tomorrow. I was getting pretty pissed off owing to my dialup connection cutting out and my losing a journal entry and letter to someone which were wiped out when I logged back on. But now I've figured out how to get into my preexisting journal entries and...

Well, this is it.

"It" being my first official online journal entry. I wonder if anyone will read it. There are two reasons why I've become an SG member.

1. Hot naked gothy chicks. I wish I was a hot naked gothy chick.

2. Now and then I click through other online journal sites that have various people I know on them. For the most...
