You know what rocks? Thursday nights at Velvet. And a large fraction of that coolness at Neutral on Fridays. They are the most awesome places to be. EBM/Industrial with not an insignificant amount of synthpop. A good night (at least for me) features VNV, Funker Vogt, Apop, Covenant, And One, Assemblage 23, Rammstein, Juno Reactor, Wumpscut and so on. Which means I'm on the dancefloor...

Today was awesome. Made some ground at the workplace. Started selling products I've not yet been able to close on, my piercings hurt much less, and most of all I picked up my shit and went down to see Bela Fleck and the Flecktones at Massey Hall.
Fuck, man. If you want to see musicians at their finest -- guys who are masters of their...

Now, I speak from experience on the following issue. I've been following Rockstar like someone who watches TV every week. I made the foray into seeing if there was anything good on TV and I've stopped watching TV except to see Rockstar. I'm excited to see the performances. They're pretty cool.
But now that the series is over, it's so plain to see that they...

Man, I love Mutts. Especially when they get philosophical. What else is there for cats and dogs to ponder than when they're going to get their next meal...
Anyway, I'm going to bed. I'm exhausted. I know it's only 11:00PM, but I work in the morning and would prefer to be wholly awake so I can make more money. Besides. I'm tired and the greatest...

Does anyone else have trouble figuring out what the hell is going on?

Something is going on!?
Why the hell did no one tell me!?

The most awesome thing happened yesterday.
Well, not the most awesome. But it's still pretty fucking awesome. I marched into the downtown HMV to see The Tick on DVD! I can finally throw out my old VHS tapes. Which were pretty useless since my VHS doesn't work. Man. That show's fucking hilarious! With evil villains like the Bread Master, Chairface Chippendale and the Evil Midnight...

the tick is heeeelarious!
bombastic:
Foolishly so. In the episode "The Tick vs. The Tick" in first season, I laughed pretty hard. They walk up to this doorman who insists that Arthur not be admitted to the superhero club because he's just a sidekick. Tick thinks about it for a moment and says "I see, spelling America with a K, are you?" And then shrugs and goes in, leaving Arthur outside.
I lost it. Fucking brilliant.

I really shouldn't be doing this. I'm still at work and it's almost 7:30. Getting lots of shit done and I hope I'm impressing my boss. I've discovered that impressing the boss means getting favourable leads for good products which means more money for me. Not to mention the more work I do the more commission I get. Plans fell through for tonight so here...

Yah,
Anytime I really go wandering, I find great places.
I just need to get out more. This weekend has been all about home renovations. It should be all done by Tuesday or so, then back to wandering and what not.

Well, lookit me. Things are okay. I picked up on Wednesday and have been pretty busy since, with work and crap and life and garbage. But everything's cool now. It's the weekend.
So here I am, as my pseudonym suggests, yapping away at this journal-like entity logging my thoughts and my daily activities. A poor reason for me to be yammering as I'm wont to...

Meh, a minor obsession is ok.
So long as you know where to draw the line. Sometimes it is also harder to try and explain a seeming obsession to someone else, as they weren't there for the experience that you had with the person.

It's funny. It's more of a challenge than an obsession, really. I mean, how am I going to obsess over something I have no way of controlling? I've searched here and there when I've found opportunity (like when I was working for Rogers and had access to their phone bank) but I've otherwise kept myself unconcerned.
And it's not like I'm going to ignore those I otherwise meet. Besides. She may very well be married by now. I find it unlikely, but anything's possible.

Okay, so apparently I need to have more people listed in my friends pile in order for be to get access to the SG Canada East group. I don't know how that works, but that's what I was told. So don't be surprised if you've suddenly gotten a friend request.

aah! exactly...that's how it starts....
Where would my sanity lay, if not for you.
And what would be Velvet if not for Osaze's rhythms and scouling vocals.
Thursday never comes fast enough, and the night never lasts long enough.
Of course you were going to say that, this is why you and I often disagree.
I love this question because it points out the nature of perception. The man's action itself was selfish because his motivations were his own. He could not bare the thought of his friends dieing so he killed himself leaving his friends to deal with the loss of him. Also I am of the school of thought that says any action is selfish because it must be motivated by self to be carried out. We could argue this of course... However to the observer of the mans actions he is a hero for selflessly diving on the grenade to spare his friends lives. We can't imagine what was going on in his head, all we see is he saved his friends lives.
What this says to me is the truth of any matter depends on the perception of those who view it and their proximity to it's source. People are uncomfortable with multiple truths but I see no reason to exclude this possibility.
