I, for some reason, felt compelled to revitalize this old blog of mine. To kick things off, here’s a bunch of random thoughts and facts.
- I’m playing WoW… again… for like the fifth time now. I might actually keep up with it this time, though, since I have friends that actually play WITH me.
- Psychostick is the greatest band you’ve never heard of. Go listen to them!
- I now have a very short mohawk on the top of my head.
- The new Slipknot album is good.
- I kind of want to get back into web coding but I don’t think it’ll go anywhere. I never have any ideas or focus.
- The seventh and final season of The Shield premieres in one week, and I’m soooo ready.
- I need to clean my room and format my compruder.
That’s all for now. Adios.
O, do not forsake me
MTV to Produce Paris Hilton Cartoon

According to the New York Daily News, hotel heiress Paris Hilton will get to be the heroine of her own animated series. The series will be produced by Stan Lee and air on MTV, although no start date was announced.
Putting aside the utter ridiculousness of the IDEA and other obvious flaws with this announcement, what the hell is this going to be about?
Is it just going to be another Stripperella, only with a lot less body-mass? Instead of fighting the usual “bad guys”, she’ll just get drunk, smoke pot, and have sex with any man who would have her?
Think of the story-lines… her secret identity is revealed by way of grainy night vision video footage? Someone frames her for drunk driving and she gets sent to jail? She fights a serious and intense bout with AIDS??
Oh Stan, why have you forsaken us? 
I’m sorry, you must have the wrong number.
Some woman just called my cell phone.
“Hi, I’m calling about the ad in the paper…”
“What ad?”
“The one about the bdsm?”
“…… Uh… I’m sorry, you must have the wrong number.”
“… Okay.”

The Dark Knight Strikes Again…
… did not have enough Batman in it, and ended on a rather akward and abrupt note.. Unless my copy was missing a page or two. “I was sentimental — back when I was OLD.” What the fuck does that mean?
And what the hell was up with Dick Greyson doing the fake-joker thing? Some bullshit about regenerating cells and whatever. Who was the Robin that died before Dark knight Returns?
And the whole Superman and Wonder Woman having sex while flying into space and then crashing down into earth thing was a very special moment. “Clark. The earth moved. I’m pregnant again.” Talk about romance.
Also the coloring pretty much sucked the entire way through. The coloring in DKR was so much better. This time it looked like it was done in 1993 on some ancient version of Photoshop.
Oh well, it was still a good read.
btw - spoiler alert.
Employment!
I am pleased to announce that as of today I am no longer a temp… that’s right, I am employed.
Last week I was notified by Cassandra that I was going to become an employee. She was up-front in saying that she had seen a “great deal of change” in me since she’d started on our site about three months ago, and the change was a good one. She said she had seen a lack of customer service skills and was worried about my not talking a whole lot. First she thought something like she scared me, or that Roger scared me (because I apparently talked more and “sounded more human” when he was gone). Well… really I tried to talk even less when Roger was around because he was really annoying and gross, and always took everything and blew it way out of proportion, manipulating it to make him look good to the coroporate big-whigs. Anyways, I’m not really sure what she was talking about, as I don’t think I’ve been doing anything different from how I was doing things three months ago. Really, I just don’t talk all too much unless I know the person. One of the things my Mom has said when talking about me is that “he’s probably had teachers that had gone an entire year without hearing him say a word.” She’s probably right.
But anyways, now I have a permanent job, jam-packed with a $1.50 raise, paid holidays, potential paid vacation time, and insurance benefits. Not too shabby if you ask me.
Come on, Mr. Lincoln! Take your best shot!
So tonight I decided to go see Children of Men after work. The movie starts at 7:50. I get off at 7:00 and got down to the theatre by 7:15. Clearly I had some time to kill so I decided to stop at the Burger King a little bit further down State St. for some dinner.
So I go in, order my food, get my drink, yada yada. They call my number to pick up my food and when I’m up at the desk I see this guy ordering. Middle-aged black male, old ratty jacket, red knit cap… and next to his feet sits a plastic grocery bag containg two 40oz bottles of malt liquor. My good amigo, the story does not end there.
I have my food and pick a spot to sit. A strategically placed table near a corner of the building allows me to watch television while I eat; I sit down. I get to have my first ever taste of American Idol. Meanwhile, the black fellow with his sack of dreams gets his food: a sandwitch and an order of fries. He sits down in the seat behind me, way back in the corner. Starts eating his food, and then cracks open one of his 40s to help wash it all down. It gets better.
All of a sudden he starts talking to someone. He doesn’t have a cellphone, and he came in alone. Ok, so he’s got an imaginary friend. What’s wrong with that? Nothing.
The most interesting part is the subjects of their conversation. The majority of it was dealing with what I think is a form of time travel. He mentioned the atomic mass of “gin”, its fluxuating wave lenghts, position in space-time, and something about a pot of coffee. This must be some pretty high-profile business, as he was quoted in saying “Thats just what the corporation wants you to do!”
It was all very interesting and educational. After he finished, him and his friend got up and left, still deep in conversation…and that was it. Perhaps I’ll meet this spectacular individual again in the future… FROM THE PAST!
btw - Children of Men was good. I highly reccomend it.
guh.
I love making plans with people that never go anywhere.
Twitter!- Dusting off my old blog...
