What a great day, at first I thought today would suck because I had two back to back tests.  But both of them turned out to be really easy.  After school I hung out with Kevin at school for a bit.  He asked someone to prom and they seemed, hesitant to say the least.  We went back to my house and sort of sat around.  At around 4 we went out and starting clearing more of the yard for the beach we hope to put in.  We cut down some big branches for absolutely no reason, and now we have a ton of branches just sort of sitting around.  So we decided we were going to burn it.  So we started raking some leaves to burn with the trees, but it sort of turned from burning trees to raking the ENTIRE yard.  We finished at about 8:30.  I came in the house covered in blood, sweat and dirt.  Oddly it is a great feeling to come in feeling like that.  I feel really accomplished.  Maybe now my yard wont look like such a shit hole.  I hope by early summer vacation we get the swamp converted at least slightly into a hang outable place.  We still need to talk to the construction crew about taking their rocks.  I'm not so sure if they are going to let two kids take a bunch of ruble in their trucks for free.  Eh, we will see.

So my parents had some people over to eat dinner and I was in my room the entire time.  Got bored and screwed around with photoshop a bit coming up with some strange outcome. Can I just say Wtf? I usually don't do stupid crap like this. I usually just cry and pretend I know what I'm doing.

But other than that, uneventful day...woot?

Ugh, so terribly depressed.  My iPod went through the wash and it isn't covered under warranty, so now I have to pray that it will dry and work again or I'm out $350.  I guess this would be a good time to start saving money towards a new mp3 player.  Hopefully by the time I make enough money to buy one apple will come out with a decent video solution.  The biggest problem is now I'm left without a music solution.  I'm going to be spending a lot of time in school in silence.

In other news, my site is finally up, fully functional and without ANY issues that I can see.  I'd say this is good, except no one is visiting the site, submitting things.  I've got one person signed up and I'd hardly say Ali should count as a member that joined of their own will.  Hopefully if I refer people to the site enough they will start visiting.

I'm so angry about this iPod issue.  I paid $50 for a warranty and the only thing it covers is if it breaks because of manufacturing problems.  So I had to pay $50 to fix an issue THEY should have to fix for free because they can't make a proper product.  Now, I know that the iPod washing thing is my fault but I bought the warranty under the impression that it was a form of insurance against stupid things like me accidentally washing it.  I'm thinking about starting a capitalist revolt, I've got tubs of human fat and Tyler tells me it's a good idea. (I'm kidding for those of you that don't get it)

Ignore Everything But The Last Bit

Mondays. Always the worst day of the week. We dread Monday but today I can say that this Monday wasn't too bad. It started with a fairly humdrum study hall. We sat around doing pretty much nothing, I did my homework. I still haven't finished the Trig homework that was due today. It made no sense to me so i just didn't do it. Mr. Coon still hasn't decided on the next play. So I did all that work on the Dark of the Moon poster for nothing. Well I wouldn't say nothing, I did get to make a fairly pretty poster. After study hall I went to TA. My TA, the one I don't go to, was in the computer lab and I needed to follow them. We were working on the bullshit career thing again. They really are trying to force careers down my throat. I took one of the tests and my profile was that of a 'Personal Independent'. They gave me a list of 11 possible careers. Of which were Fisher, Mortician, and other really weird careers i would never consider.

While it doesn't help me find a career it does remind me that I still need to think about college and a possible career. I feel like I sort of fell behind when it came to this. Everyone is out searching for colleges and jobs and here I am, no clue what I want to be, with no job. My mom is pressuring me to start to look and for once I am actually looking. We talked about me possibly becoming a writer. I do tend to argue, have extreme points, and deliver them fairly well. But I can't see myself becoming a writer. Too much writing on my behalf. Ever since I was little I always wanted to be an actor, but I know that won't happen. This whole rat race of a career is too difficult to really follow.

Speaking of jobs, my dad offered me a job working weekends with him. I would be in a different state every weekend, doing some ridiculous job. I'd work a total of 18 hours. But the pay is really good. Minimum of $180 a weekend with 10% of whatever I make at the stand I'm at. The only minus would be I would have to dress in period clothing. Yes that's right, I'd be working at a ren fair at some silly stand. But hey, I'd get to get some interesting stories and some great pay for doing almost nothing. I'd be guessing ages or something. The only thing I don't like is that I'd be gone weekends every weekend for most of the summer vacation. It would hinder my play time experiences. Er...anyway.

I had chemistry after TA, we were making soap and Doug was gone. So I had to work with Brian and Christine. Always a blah experience. I was all ready to make fight club references at doug. Stupid pot head was sick or something. Bleh. After I had Trig, did nothing in that class except talk. I never do work in that class. Such a waste. Then I had drivers ed. We watched two videos and Van Kleek talked at us for the class. I still haven't learned anything in that class. I can't take the quizzes if I can't visually see the situation. It takes me a little bit more than it should to finish the quizzes. But yeah, after that I hung out with Ali. We went to the coffee hound, were yelled at for not sitting upright on the couch (nazis!) and left. Just a quick side note, the theater is almost never locked.  We had to go around but it didn't take too much to get in there.  Went home, did more of nothing and that's about it.

So here I sit at 9:30 listening to the Killers.  I should finish my remaining homework so I don't have to ignore poor Mr Coon during skinny tomorrow.  He always looks sad sitting all alone at his Study Hall table eating a bagel or something.  It's always a little uncomfortable talking to him one on one.  I never have anything to say and I just stand there like an idiot.  Oh well. 

I'm thinking of starting a new rant by the end of the weekend.  I can't do one now, I need 5 hours to sort of sit around pondering it before I write anything...and by 5 hours I mean I'm too lazy to do it during the weekday.  But yeah, I'll work on one for Sunday.  Also,

I UPDATED ECHIMP
So go, sign up, read and post.  I want this one to kick off for once.  C'mon people, it's not too hard.

Well, once again I have found a server to host my site upon. They seem reliable but I'm not promising anything. So once again I unveil...

eChimp.net

Go there, sign up and submit content, as I am far too lazy to submit stuff myself. If everyone submits two things they know of the site will be off to a great start. So come on, take 10 minutes to contribute to something. Hopefully if I can get a real user database going we can get some decent submissions and we can actually have a daily updated site with new content. My dream =')

I've got this great idea for a shirt. How can you deny the awesomeness of these pictures? For those of you that don't know, Garry Glitter was convicted of owning child porn. You have to admit he is a really good artist, though it's funny he was a ped.


It's too bad I can't do this shirt, copyright limitations prevent me from doing it. Oh well =/

Wow, it's seems like it's been a lifetime since I posted here. I think with the removal of certain people I am willing to come back to an empty community, paying lip service to the blind and deaf. I feel like some sort of cheap whore. I paint myself as someone who can make choices for myself, but where was I when everyone left Livejournal? I was with them at Myspace. Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad place but it's everything I didn't like about Livejournal. Everyone is either posting chain letters or trying to add friends to get a higher number. There is no substance or personality in Myspace. On Myspace you aren't a person, to everyone you are simply another number, another picture to add onto their album of friends. I've had several people try to add me who I have never even met. I'm not a number, I'm a person, and if anyone wanted to add me as a friend they better be a friend of mine.

So what better way to come back to my old journal than with a rant?

Too Crazy To Die
Our nation was built on equality. Everyone has an equal chance to pursue happiness, the American dream. What goes one way, must logically go the other way. If legal citizens can be rewarded equally no matter what, then so should criminals be punished equally no matter the color, creed, sex, or mental wellness. Why bring this up? Well lets look at the linked news article.

"A judge has ruled that a former prison guard convicted of killing 13 people in a 1982 shooting rampage can't be executed because he is mentally ill."

First of all, this guy killed the people in 1982, how the hell is the legal system so slow that it took 24 years to come to a verdict? Anyway, this guy is being spared any real sentence because he claims to be mentally unstable. How is this justice? They say that he can't be executed because he wouldn't be able to comprehend that he was being killed. You know what? Those people he shot had no idea they were going to die but he went through with it anyway. Who cares how crazy he is? If he doesn't see it coming then it will just make it that much easier. Why do we feel this need to baby those that are mentally lower than us? He kills 13 people and we are practically giving him a medal. He killed 7 children, 3 of his girlfriends, one ex-girlfriend, the ex's mother and some bystander and he gets off with nothing. If you remember a little while ago, some little 12 year old girl barely escaped being sent to prison for throwing a rock at 3 high schoolers who were harassing her. If she can even be brought up to court then this guy should be a dried up blood stain in the memory of everyone.

How are they convinced he's crazy?(Quick side note, he looks like a pimp) As if it isn't too clichéd, he's a religious zealot. Why is it every religious zealot is able to get off with either absolutely no punishment or they are burned alive with all their concubines? Anyway, he claims god told him to pick up a semi automatic and pump 13 people full of lead. If god told him once, whats stopping god from telling him to go out and kill more people? He obviously isn't fit to function in society, so now we are going to lock him away in a mental institution. "Well good, he will get better!" you say. Nope he was deemed " a hopeless prognosis", "will not improve to any acceptable degree". So let's get this straight, he's a crazy murdering zealot that will never improve over time and can never be introduced into society ever again...and we allow him to live? I don't think there is a single logical reason as to why to keep this guy around. No one can argue a positive reason why this guy should live. He is just wasting our tax dollars, air and time. It's an insult to everything our nation holds true to keep this guy alive. If a Christian is equal to a Jew, a black to a white and a man to a woman then a crazy person should be held under the same standards as us.

What is punishment? Punishment is a penalty imposed for wrongdoing. So we claim that we have an equal punishment that is directly proportionate to the crime. So this guy is receiving no punishment, unless you count a room with 3 meals and television a punishment. The court is basicly suggesting that the crimes he committed were ethicaly equal to him receiving a room. The people that died are receiving absolutely no justice in this situation. This man's crazy ass is more valuable to the country than the 13 dead women and children. What happened to chivalry? What happened to the legal system? Equal Punishment? Common Sense? Apparently it's been gone for a long time, at least since 1982 when they should have wasted this waste.

I'm sure a majority of you have heard of the Hot Coffee mod for GTA: San Andreas. If not, I'll update you quick.

* Rockstar releases GTA: San Andreas, a game where you can murder old ladies and cops. It is rated M for mature meaning no one under 17 can buy it.
* GTA: SA is released on XBOX and PC.
* Some community releases a patch that changes the code for GTA: SA so that you can have sex with your girlfriend. No Genitalia can be seen.
* A stupid bitchy soccer mom found her 11 year old son playing this modded game and proceeded to get mad at Rockstar.

If you actually read all of it I'll be very impressed.

I've noticed a group of people who seem to love the anarchy symbol. I'm pretty sure they don't understand what true anarchy is but it's obvious that no one in support of it does. Just with communism, the idea is great on paper but would never work if instituted. But these people don't understand this.

"We are oppressed, depressed, blah blah blah." They say.

Well you want to look at your alternatives? If Anarchy were instituted you would be murdered in an instant. You are just going to have to stick with what we have got right now and just wait for things to get better. We are an ever changing, evolving country. Then there are these people who seem to think America is such a horrible country. We don't have the best ruler but it's better than our other options. I remember on my bus these two girls were talking.

"I hate all men. I hope they all die."

Now with this declaration I felt I had to intervene (I do KIND of know them so it wasn't TOO weird.). I'm angry when people can't seem to understand that just because you are of a certain gender, race, or whatever you are automatically evil. I asked how they could say that considering how many examples of men are NOT assholes. It isn't hard to find them, they do exist and they are surprisingly smart.

"In America women earns $.75 to every mans $1.00."

Yeah, so go to Afghanistan where you CAN'T make money and are killed for wearing anything short of a comforter. And not a nifty multicolored comforter. Oh no, your only allowed one color. If they see any spider man bed sheets they molest you before and after killing you. Don't complain that America sucks, because it does, but your alternatives are worse. You think it's hard being a woman? I am in the worst group in the entire world.

I am a white, Christian, American, male. I am the most hated category in the entire world. Anywhere I go I will be automatically hated because of my color, and nationality. It's absolutely ridiculous. When our teachers talk about slavery they talk to us as if we are the ones who beat them. I've been talked down to because I'm a white man. I'm whitey! Obviously I am the heathenistic asshole who was pro slavery. Oh and the holocaust? Yep that was me. I started that one as well. And we have all been conditioned to talk like this. I talk with others about slave owners using the word "We".

"When we were pro slavery _______"

Why is that? Why do we speak about our country as if talking about ourselves? Why can't we just talk about those stupid assholes as if they were....them. This is also where I find reparations ridiculous. These people weren't slaves. The last slaves died in the 80's. So these people asking for reparations are just out for money. Can I ask for money from the government because my great great uncle was beat with a stick? No of course not. If every group wants to be treated equal then we have to start by not giving other people extras. Don’t give everyone special stuff. Bring everyone to the same level then leave it that way. Why can't they do that? The government has to do all these weird scales laws that confuse everyone without demanding equality. It's like having a scale with one side having 10 pounds and the other having 20 and then just adding random things to the ten pound side until the two sides are just completely filled with crap that's not needed. They are just making a mockery of the system.

Pay women $1 to men’s $1, stop denying people jobs because of their race, sex or whatever and stop being weird about everything!
