Alright, another new entry. Like, four in five days. And, finally, more to my PG-13 rant. For my new friends and the old ones that missed it, here's the first half.
Man, I'm tired. It's been a long weekend without naps.
The year after PG-13 came into existance, not much changed... but the signs were already there. The MPAA had never been known for consistant...

Welcome to day 3 of at least 3 days in a row of posting.
First order of business. I love the little friends windows. I have resisted adding friends for a while (or even asking for any). I am not a 'collector' of people or feel any more or less justified in my existance because of the number of strangers that I call 'friends'; but,...

I'm not a friend collector either. In fact, I went through and dumped a bunch of people who had quit posting and/or replying since I added them as "friends". If you ain't gonna make the effort, it's no fun having you around.
PS. Not to steal your thunder or anything, but it was Roxy who was the deciding factor behind my profile pic.

So, I'm gonna have to kill Juliana to be number one, huh?
The entries are coming fast and furious for a while. If you blinked, you have missed a general progress report, a rant against insurance companies, a tribute to Jerry Goldsmith, and the history of the PG-13 movie rating.
Instead of the second half of the PG-13 rant, a short, hopefully humorous filler occured to me. As some of you know, I am undecided about astrology,...

I had planned to devote an entry on the San Diego Comicon, but something else came up again... so, a little another diversion, if you will. Comicon highlights later.
My comments in theAVP Hate Thread (actually, I started it), got me thinking more about the PG-13 rating; which I have called the death of action movies.

What interests me most is the amount of violence they'll put up with before slapping an R rating on it versus the amount of sex.

Good answer!
And yes, primarily is the key. They were primarily warm blooded.
How do you know that stuff? Are you a fellow bio nerd?

I was going to leave the progress report from last time up a while longer, but I've got my anger up after spending all day on the phone with my car insurance company.
First, let me be clear on my general attitude on this subject. Insurance companies are on my list of the three most evil things on the planet. Insurance companies, tow truck companies,...

I have dial-up that i can only use for 10 mins at a time (don't ask) and it kills me, so it's very very painful to try use SG. I start back at school next week so will be heading home sunday or monday, and back online properly then!
whew, i'm glad i don't work in insurance.

My last entry was looong, so this is mundane, and short. A spacer, if you will.
First of all, I'm going to San Deigo Comic Con on Weds the 21st. Anyone down in that area is more than welcome to try and set up a time and meet wit' me. I may bring the pimp hat, but I'll definitely have the pimp-i-tude.

Pics received, indeed!
That was fast.

Over the last three entries is a play I wrote. This is not.
I just finished reading a letter posted in this thread. In general, I have a low opinion of drug abusers, people that kill themselves, and people that try to harm cops. But, it got me thinking.
A while back, I got as close as I ever did to suicide. I'm guessing...

Why do we have to urge to squeeze them though? Why do we want to pop their heads off? That feeling I get when I'm holding something cute makes me feel like a psycho.

I won't be in LA until the 23rd. If I get that time off, it will be until the 2nd of August.

This is the last section of a Superhero Drama I wrote a while back. The other two parts and an explanation of why I bothered are in the last two journal entries. As always, feedback is always okay.
SCENE THREE
Outside Dad's room, Helen and Jeff stand.

Yup. I'm saving all my pretty ones for the weekend. 

In normal news, freelance projects aren't firming up, loans aren't coming in, so stress is starting to build. I need to move, too.
Here is the second scene of a short play I wrote. The first part and explanation of it is one entry back. There is one more scene after this.

you dont have to thank me for stepping into that thread, I just wish I had gotten there sooner. The whole thing was basically revolved around my horrible actions of trying to reach out to the unfortunate ppl of opiate addiction so as to make them feel less abaondoned. Everbody needS SOMEBODY. I havent gone back to the thread to see where exactly YOU stand on the subject, I read so many posts by so many different ppl that I cant keep track of who's on what side here.
Thank YOU for participating in the thread tho. I know its certainly a very otuchy subject and everyones opinions matter and are greatly appreciated, even if they dont neccesarily agree with mine.

I guess not, as it were.
Okay, so I have an interview tomorrow, and I've decided I can't read your journal (properly) until after that. I want to enjoy it, not feel guilty that I should be doing something else!
