ApostropheNow in ... "My Dream Job"

Working for the CIA, getting paid with untraceable government weed, giving ridiculous advice to heads-of-state; this is my calling. This is my Dream Job. I'm not saying I love my country, I do.

But... I don't. I'm saying I love weed. No, I'm not.

I play bass in a surf-rock cover band. They don't know I work for the...

ApostropheNow in... "This Hamburger Destroys Fascists"


i was wandering down the street yesterday; bloated- from the double cheeseburger combo i'd just scarfed, and a little depressed about... nothing in particular. Suddenly- a giant fucking dog, perhaps a doberman/great dane mix (which kind of disgusts me on some level) poked it's gargoyle head over a block wall fence and snarled at me, figuratively startling the shit...

I was lucky to get some good advice when I was about 14 years old.

If I had been any younger when I received the advice I wouldn't have fully understood it and if I'd been any older I probably would've ignored it. It was the right advice at the right time; it hasn't made my life much easier but I still carry it with...

It turns out that foamy pee is a bad sign.

One thing led to another and I went for a renal ultrasound.

I had a lively conversation with the technician though, we laughed and laughed.

Foamy pee? That can be caused by protein in the urine. I hope things aren't too serious.

One of the minor disappointments I live with daily is having no one to discuss the Tao with. The paradox is that this is very Tao. Wanna know what else is very Tao? Y'know how half the food on earth "tastes like chicken"? That's very Tao.

One time I tried to discuss the Tao with "Disco Stew", who looks like he fell through a wormhole...

I've been spending an unhealthy amount of time playing Civilization V - literally all day long.

On a more positive note, I appear to be losing weight - which I didn't think was possible on a strict diet of beer and pretzels.

Sid Meier's Civiliation, Colonisation etc games are awesome and they have sucked away many hours of my precious free time.

Years and years ago back when Civ 2 was the latest, I bought a boxed set which had various scenarios. some of them were what you would expect eg WW1 scenario, a Napoleon scenario, an Alexander the Great scenario. However, there were some other scenarios that were a little bit different. There was an Atlantis scenario, a Jihad scenario that I greatly enjoyed playing (playing as the Arabs and conquering the Byzantines and Persians) and a Jules Verne World scenario (featuring stuff from Jules Verne and HG Wells plus other stuff like Rider Hargard's King Solomon's Mines and Sax Rohmer's Fu Manchu; one of the civilisations was called The Secret Evil Society and their capital city was The Tower of Fu Manchu). Plus there were other weird scenarios like the Dinosaur one.

I don't play Civ so much now as I spend all of my free time in an online role-playing game called Cthulhu Nation (which is very cheap to play and which I highly recommend).

However, I have one final thing to say on the matter...

OUR WORDS ARE BACKED BY NUCLEAR WEAPONS!!!

Muah ha ha!!!

I splurged on a new monitor (24" LCD!!) to compliment my new PC build. I love this thing. I also bought Win7, which I didn't really care for at first... but it's growing on me. Shit, man - my profile pic looks awful now that I can see it (why didn't somebody tell me?) I should do something about that.

The weather is perfect... and...

Ugh. I have an appointment with the doctor today.

I was thinking about asking her to hook me up with a headshrinker.

I kinda like the cold, probably most native Arizonans do too. But it was fuckin' crazy cold today. I think I'm gettin' sick. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the heat of summer, which I kinda like too.

Hey kids!

After a lengthy sabbatical, and by sabbatical I mean meeting the bag o' weed of my dreams, I'm back with a renewed vigor and some semblance of commitment. "A commitment to what?" you ask, well, how 'bout a commitment to... um... ah, I forgot what I was going to say right there. Anyway, I'm ready to serve you. Really, I promise... bwahahahaha!

We never chat anymore, do we?

Let me tell ya 'bout my hair...

When I was a wee lad, I totally rocked the 70s. Which is to say, I looked kinda like the psycho killer from "No Country For Old Men", as a matter of fact, a lot of kids my age did. Oh yeah, I wore bell-bottoms, too. They were hand-me-downs from my cousin...

Big Fan of the Holidays, are ya?

I was too, briefly. When I was a little kid. Then it became a real downer. All the usual reasons would seem to apply; but in retrospect I was probably just F'ed up in the head. I can't count how many Thanksgivings I spent out of my mind. I mean, I could, but I don't want to.

Now,...
