So I was reading this blog, UtopianTurtleTop, and he reprinted this anonymous 100 year old poem he found in a newspaper in his attic. It's a parody of Rudyard Kipling's racist "White Man's Burden":
The White Man's Shame
I.
"Take up the white man's burden" --
And do as he has done,
In the far-off southern desert,
Under the desert sun.
Rob and murder... Read More
I had a dream last night that a group of friends were sitting around a campfire "Kumbaya" style, but instead of Kumbaya, it was Neil Diamond singing songs about World of Warcraft that we didn't know, and then us awkwardly trying to fake it singing along.
I could maybe sing "Woooorrrld of Warrrrcraft" to the tune of "Holly Holy", but, uh ...
Anyway, I was going to just ask you: I've invited you in to the project group as Music Editor/writer, but are you also going to be the SGOK rep? I assume you are but I don't want to add you to the regional rep list without confirmation. Cheers.
I was talking about The Watchmen as well, oddly enough. The art and the writing are both brilliant. I love how the visual and written aspects of the story complement each other, and the sense of time throughout the whole book is so well done. It really is a classic, as far as I'm concerned.
Still interested? Not site sanctioned right now. Emailed but heard nothg back and figured Book the Second and Burlesque Tour the whateverth are occupying minds.
Actually, I take that back. Slashdot beat us by an hour. CNET had it at 8:30. Searchenginewatch was quoting sources at the LA Times saying Google "might have something tomorrow" at like 7pm. Heh. Everyone else was writing about a "planned launch."
Did you ever hear back from your local radio station on the whole Green Day/Army story? I'm just curious because I just saw the "Wake Me Up When September Ends" video (which seems pretty ANTI people joining the military... or at least not very pro-recruitment). Just curious.
Sometimes I don't give my own opinion in News articles because I want the members who reply to respond to the article instead of arguing with me personally.
Hey Kieth, I just submitted an obit on Randy Turner for the Music Board, was wondering if it could get cued up quickly. Unless there are others who did the same, that is.
Superman has been known to leave his fingerprints in steel and in hardened concrete, accidentally. What would he do to the woman in his arms during what amounts to an epileptic fit?

Consider the driving urge between a man and a woman, the monomaniacal urge to achieve greater and greater penetration. Remember also that we... Read More
This whole thing has been dealt with by Kevin Smith dude!
T.S.: But theyre engaged.
Brodie: Doesnt matter, cant happen.
T.S.: Why not? Its bound to come up.
Brodie: Its impossible, Lois could never have Supermans baby. Do you think her fallopian tubes could handle the sperm? I guarantee you he blows a load like a shotgun right through her back. What about her womb? Do you think its strong enough to carry her child?
T.S.: Sure, why not?
Brodie: Hes an alien, for christ sake. His Kryptonian biological makeup is enhanced by earths yellow sun. If Lois gets a tan the kid could kick right through her stomach. Only someone like Wonder Woman has a strong enough uterus to carry his kid. The only way he could bang regular chicks is with a kryptonite condom. That would kill him!

So I found out yesterday that my old next door neighbor, Jason, who's around my age (a little older), and still lives next door to my grandmother, was shot 5 times this week -- in the legs, chest, and head. And lived.
The funny thing is that my grandmother is kind of irritated that he didn't die -- one of her friends had actually witnessed... Read More
My profile's still pretty much the same, too, except for the location. I figured if I left it as Ann Arbor, I'd come up in an area search and she could put two and two together.
Once this all blows over, I'm going to switch my location, re-upload my pics, etc. I'll probably keep the username, though. I'm fond of it, and I was getting really tired of Sorcha.
Thought you might appreciate the link.. not that Music needs any help finding stories.. heh.
Very excited.
