I got the DVD "Leon" the original version of "The Professional", with a young Natalie Portman. They just butcher movie for the American market. Watch the original, it's 100 times better.

what is normal? is sanity all it's cracked up to be?

don't you wish life had a reset button?

just drink a lot before you do anything you might regret and you'll wake up and not remember what happened. or you could just develop your selective memory loss skills.

sanity is boring, i tried it once. surreal

one minute reset would be just awesome...Can you imagine conversations ? wink you could pretty much say anything you want, all you have to do is to take the abuse for a few seconds after you donwloaded your vocal crap and wooooops it resets itself smile

I woke up Saturday morning with a small lake in my laundry room, it seems my water heater committed suicide... So that's what I spent most of the day doing.

My ex and are good friends. We talk every few weeks, run into each other maybe twice a year. My GF has never liked this, but I think it very low of me and shitty...

jimmyjoe:
the thing is, see, from day one the cops blew this thing totally out of proportions and in a kind of exhilirating process so did the DA and when they all got excited at 'an international ring of thieves' it 's nearly impossible for them to recognise the mistake and come back and turn the wheels of justice. The belgian law system is very fucked up and the courts are overwhelmed, so from one hearing to the next, to new conclusions from the DA, from appeal to another appeal, etc...sometimes it took 6 months !!!! SO, yeah, it's all an entire fucking scandal that took place, shame i was in it, somehow. I tell ya, makes you feel kinda small and irrelevant once in the Big Machine.

I hate shaving.

Started off with those cheap disposable razors, a great way to remove that top layer of dead skin and leave your face burning all damn day. Then I upgraded to the expensive razor with the dispoable blades. The two bladed, the three bladed, the max 4 bladed razor with the built in auto sharpener. Ugh. Again a horrible part of self grooming....

I'm lucky to be alive... I'm still shaking. I was out tooling about on the bike, it being such a lovely evening. On 50th headed up the hill, I crest the hill and what do I find? Some riced out honda blew it's radiator. It looked like it happened in the no2 lane, and they pulled over blocking the no1 lane. For those who don't...

HOOOOLEEEFUCKINGSHITBRO!

That was a nice bit of riding! I'm glad you made it home upright!
jimmyjoe:
yeah, i thought that one would hurt but I had my guardian angel looking out, i'm pretty sure. I only had a few bruises dispate the fact that i did the entire 3 lanes on my back....

the un-singer album is brilliant, it's really spaced out pop, lots of gtrs but all done on computer so it has the sound but not the actual real feel, and it adds up to the eerie feeling. you can check some on here

ciao !

where to start...

the weather here has just been lovely. I think it got up tp 80 today, which is strange for Seattle this time of years. I hear that Seattle is 4 inches behind on the rain for the year... long hot dry summer... good thing I'll be spending alot of it exploring Oregon. Hell I might even go with Darin on his next...

i thought Redux disappointing...the two major scenes added are non essential and even very tacky (man, the music on the french romantic encounter is really, realy cheesy). The bunny chopper is totally unrelevant...
actually the entire movie perspires the desire to make you understand they (the US soldiers) were all very fucked up and war is bad and shouldn't happen...when in the original the point of view was less hammered down on you and made you feel like the soldiers were just poor sods and sorry more than just all totally stoned and left to their own judgements. So, i think the original was more powerful, and had more a description of good against evil.

voil !



i don't know yr gf, i don't even know you actually, so it's hard to say anything...except that fights are common and normal in couples, as long as these fights don't end up in real shoutings and verbal abuses and don't go over sacred grounds, yes, it's part of a relationship smile

it's definate that i am alive. i've been busy with school and work, fixing two very fickle 80's volkswagens. yesterday i just sort of walked around at work doing nothing. whatever, that's me.

don't worry about the girl, when you get a chance just explain that you felt totally out of place, take her out for dinner, blah blah blah. girls are weird, but if you're honest they're usually cool about it. anyway, good luck, enjoy the weather. wink

Bugger, I had to spend time with my GF and her friends at some damn BBQ on Sunday, a perfect riding day wasted. I guess if I enjoyed talking with her GirlyGirl friends about designer shoes and clothing, or knew anything about their office gossip I might have not wanted to suck the propane out of the grill tank and put myself out of my...

don't worry, i feel out of place almost everywhere i go. i'm a guitar-playing punk-ass weirdo car guy living in hippiesville oregon. i also don't do any drugs, which makes me even more out of place..grr. oh well.let's see that rickenbacker soon!

the weather has been ok, so I've been putting a few miles on the bike, but I'm really dying for a road trip. I heard a rumor that the north cascades loop was open. I've only ridden it about a thousand time, but I'll take what I can get.

I picked up a great lens the other day, a Nikkor (nikon) 50mm/1.8 aperture. This is...

you could take the freaky pages and leave them under a pane of glass acting as a table so everyone could see. that'd be super cool!

Joined a photography group, so I added a folder with some of my stuff.

I think my cat just farted, Jesus wept, my eyes are watering... wtf has he been eating?

Yesterday was beautiful, 76 degrees in spring? Hey, I'm not going to bitch. But, I need more riding buddies. I wish my GF wasn't scared shitless by the motorcycle. She won't ride with me,...

>you're working in a medical lab ?

no, why do you ask?
didn't you mention a dyalisis or something ? must be my buffer memory going mad ;-)

>I got a $2000 mountain bike for one month of work on the Ti Cycles website.

that's good !!! you know, ducati makes bicycles also. i wonder if even thir bicycles have electrics misbehaviours ? smile


>how does that story remind you of a girl you knew ? the fridge ? the lexus ?

> Once she had to sit in front of me, and it just killed me, her neck, her shirt slipped and exposed her shoulder, her playing with her hair, and other little things that were entirelyfor my benefit. She never did that before or after that one day.

men, i guess that was hot...was it in slow motion also ? ;-)


>I'm still nursing a bit of a broken heart. I feel like a shit because I feel like I cheated on my girlfriend. She is a great gal, but she an't compare with my crush.

well, i can read you for the broken heart....And about feeling like sh*t, you fell in love, man, there's no cheating, life is passing us by and we are taken by surprise sometimes.

>Damn women and all the power they have over us...
it's the catalyst power that i love. that woman i wrote the story for, she just electrified me for months, and I swear she had a hook in me she could just do want she wanted. The nice part is she made me get up and do some recordings and she gave me some confidence in my music. The terrible part is that it was that power she was looking for. the actual results and the traumas inflicted by her didn't matter...hey, that is gone now.

we cannot control being in love. we can only absorb its energy and enjoy the ride smile

bonne journe smile
