However long I stay
I will always love you
Whatever words I say
I will always love you
I will always love you

Oh yeah, what we're living in (let me tell ya)
It's a wonder man can eat at all
When things are big that should be small
Who can tell what magic spells we'll be doing for us
And I'm giving all my love to this world
Only to be told
I can't see
I can't breathe
No more will we be
And nothing's going to change the way we live
Cos' we can always take but never give
And now that things are changing for the worse,
See, its a crazy world we're living in
And I just can't see that half of us immersed in sin
Is all we have to give these -

Futures made of virtual insanity now
Always seem to, be govern'd by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh, now there is no sound - for we all live underground

And I'm thinking what a mess we're in
Hard to know where to begin
If I could slip the sickly ties that earthly man has made
And now every mother, can choose the colour
Of her child
That's not nature's way
Well that's what they said yesterday
There's nothing left to do but pray
I think it's time I found a new religion
Waoh - it's so insane
To synthesize another strain
There's something in these
Futures that we have to be told.

Futures made of virtual insanity - now
Always seem to, be govern'd by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh, now there is no sound - for we all live underground

Now there is no sound
If we all live underground
And now it's virtual insanity
Forget your virtual reality
Oh, there's nothing so bad.
I know yeah

Of this virtual insanity, we're livin in.
Has got to change, yeah
Things, will never be the same.
And I can't go on
While we're livin' in oh, oh virtual insanity
Oh, this world, has got to change
Cos I just, I just can't keep going on, it was virtual.
Virtual insanity that we're livin' in, that we're livin' in
That virtual insanity is what it is

Futures made of virtual insanity - now
Always seem to, be govern'd by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh, now there is no sound - for we all live underground

Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity

Virtual Insanity is what we're living in

I love you, Jamiroquai.

Hello all! I know I haven't updated in a while, but Paul lent me a great book recently. It's called DEPRAVED AND INSULTING ENGLISH. It's basically a bunch of obscure and unused words that are really quite useful, most of them being (obviously) extremely rude and disgusting. I highly recommend.

In fact, I've just found a little gem of a word. Well, truth to tell, the word isn't all that great, besides having a number of practical uses in everday life, but the accompanying sentence struck me as particularly amusing, especially in light of the upcoming holiday.

ENTHEOMANIAC (en THEE o MAY nee ak) n. : one who is literally insane about religion.
Sentence: "Easter seemed to lose some of its carefree spirit for the children the year they celebrated it at the country home of their Aunt Helen, an ENTHEOMANIAC who insisted that they recite an hour of the Scriptures before hunting for eggs. She ended the day with a lecture on what happens to children who go to Hell, illustrated nicely by microwaving a foil-wrapped chocolate bunny rabbit."

Ahhh... delightfully twisted.

Thanks to Peter Novobatzky and Ammon Shea for compiling this wonderful book of warped and disturbing jewels of the English language.

FUN QUOTES!!!!

If you like to dress up in latex and dance to techno music, does that make you perverted?
Or, if you have secretly purchased 200 pairs of Manolo Blahnik shoes, and gratify yourself while watching them rotate on a spotlighted pedestal as Johnny Mathis records play in the background, does that make you perverted? Well, maybe it does actually, but is that a bad thing?

But whether you should join in is totally up to you. Obviously your husband has given this some thought, but I’m betting he is imagining you, him and a babe named Tiffanie; not you, him and a guy named Bruno.

'One way to be sure you never have an orgasm is to obsess about it.'

There are no major health consequences to frequent masturbation. If there were, plenty of men would look like Gollum from "The Lord of the Rings."

People don’t exist so you can check episodes off your sexual dance card.

Men like naughty, horny women. At 20, most guys are too worried about our own studliness to enjoy the thought of another man thrilling a woman we love. But middle-agers who’ve been married a long time are usually pretty secure. So it’s safe to imagine their wives as the town sluts.

haha I love Sex Columns!

German police halt sexual intercourse in public

3 warnings needed to stop couple's love-making in shopping area

BERLIN - German police detained a naked 25-year-old woman and her 23-year-old partner who were engaged in sexual intercourse on the pavement in the middle of a busy shopping district, police said on Saturday.

Police in the western town of Duelmen said the couple were spotted by pedestrians late on Friday morning having intercourse. Pedestrians in the town of 40,000 called police, but the couple initially ignored police orders to stop.

“The naked couple continued their passion-filled activity on the cold asphalt,” a police spokesman said. “They finally followed police instructions to stop on the third warning.”

The spokesman said the two face a 100-euro ($125) fine each for disturbing the peace.

wow... I'm really not doing well with that whole paying attention to copyrights thing, am I?

which seeps from you while you're sleeping
beautiful and grotesque
resting
cocooned in my room
that night we got kicked out of two bars
and laughed our way home
and i held you there thinking
i would offer you my pulse
i would give you my breath
i would offer you my pulse

laying on the couch
and the music plays, plays
snapping fingers twisting bodies
i see it on the table

i can't must wait
i look
it looks back
the needle speaks
it calls

suddenly i need it
can't stand it
so i do it
push off get off
all the same

it rushes through
all the happiness
all in one little vein

the lights dance
the smoke writhes
the music suddenly pounds through
absorbs everything
im lost in the moment
giggling twitching

every sensation is a revelation
fingers through hair
cloth against skin

and the moment expands
rising above the dingy apartment
where the music pounds and
the lights dance and
the smoke writhes

and now i'm laying on the couch
and the music plays and plays
snapping fingers twisting bodies
i see it on the table

Drinking and shotguns in your pants don't mix

Man jailed for illegal firearm possession after shooting self in groin

The Associated Press

SHEFFIELD, England - A man who shot himself in the groin after drinking 15 pints of beer and stuffing a sawed-off shotgun down his trousers was jailed for five years Tuesday for illegal possession of a firearm.

David Walker, 28, underwent emergency surgery after the March 6 incident in Dinnington, northern England. Tests were continuing to learn if Walker would be left infertile, his lawyer Gulzar Syed said.

“He still feels quite severe pain,” Syed told Sheffield Crown Court, adding that some pellets still were lodged in Walker’s groin area.

Walker had admitted one charge of possession of a prohibited firearm at a previous hearing.

Prosecuting lawyer Andrew Hatton told the court Walker had gone home to get the shotgun after arguing in the pub with lifelong friend Stuart Simpson about whose turn it was to buy a beer.

As he was returning to the pub, which had closed by then, he accidentally fired the weapon.

“He had it shoved down his trousers,” Hatton said. “After the shotgun had discharged he placed it in a rubbish bin and crawled back to his home.”

Walker told officers he was so drunk he had no idea how he managed to shoot himself and why he had gone home for the gun.

Judge Robert Moore said recent legislation regarding banned weapons meant he had to impose the statutory five-year minimum sentence.

“The shooting of yourself is plainly an exceptional circumstance which is capable of reducing the sentence,” Moore said. “But in this case, I am quite certain, it does not justify reducing it below the statutory minimum.”

just a reflection
just a glimpse
just a little reminder
of all the what abouts
and all the might have
could have beens
another day
some other way
but not another reason to continue
and now you're one of us
the wretched

the hopes and prays
the better days
the far aways
forget it

it didn't turn out the way you wanted it to
it didn't turn out the way you wanted it to, did it?
it didn't turn out the way you wanted it to
it didn't turn out the way you wanted it to, did it?

now you know
this is what it feels like
now you know
this is what it feels like

the clouds will part and the sky cracks open
and god himself will reach his fucking arm
through
just to push you down
just to hold you down
stuck in this hole with the shit and the piss
and it's hard to believe it could come down to this back at the beginning
sinking
spinning

and in the end
we still pretend
the time we spend
not knowing when
you're finally free
and you could be

but it didn't turn out the way you wanted it to
it didn't turn out quite the way that you wanted it

now you know
this is what it feels like
now you know
this is what it feels like

you can try to stop it but it keeps on coming
you can try to stop it but

it begins
push it away but it all comes back again
all the flesh
all the sin
there was a time when it used to mean just about everything

just like now

breathe, echoing the sound
time starts slowing down
sink until i drown
(please) i don't ever want to make it stop

and it keeps repeating
will you please complete me?

never be enough
to fill me up

watch the white
turn to red
it fills up the hole but it grows somewhere else instead
all my life
yeah yeah yeah yeah, but it just left me dead
(well guess what?)
the world is over and i realize it was all in my head

now everything is clear
i erase the fear
i can disappear
(please) i don't ever want to make it stop

you can never leave me
will you please complete me

never be enough
to fill me up

Oh yeah... so my grades came earlier this week... and all i have to say is too fuckin funny... I totally did no work in any class but Expo and somehow managed to pass everything. I even got an A in psych and in my art class and I didn't do SHIT for either of them... Oh yeah... even better: I turned in NOTHING, I repeat: ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for my Animal Behavior class. I had a 25% in the class (due to quizzes and tests). Then I turned in my final. I had a 124% on it (you didn't have to answer all the questions, but I did in case I got something wrong) and Doc has a rule that if you get a 96 or higher, you automatically get an A in the course. That rocks. Also my photo teacher passed me with a C... something that couldn't have been done considering the amount of work I didn't do and the fact that I didn't turn in my final.

Yeah... I seem to be having some issues with typing the word "didn't." I keep typing "did'nt." I think the entire english speaking/writing population should change the spelling to accomidate me. LOL. God that sounded really American.

I think it's rediculous that so many people in this country have to point the finger at someone else when something goes wrong... Paul and I were talking about this earlier. It's like "I'm horribly, disgustingly, terrifyingly obese! I'm going to sue Mc Donald's!" What you need to do is eat healthy, get off your lazy ass and get some exercise, fatty. Not sue some corporation who duped you with advertising. That's what business do. They are there to provide a service and reap a profit. It's not their fault that you sit in front of the TV and eat too much of their nasty, greasy food. It's yours.

In anycase, I'm wandering...

Holy shit... I just spaced for 5 minutes and just stared at the computer screen.

Oh how weird. I just got a random phone call from Nick. It's after fuckin midnight for christ's sake. Too bad I missed it, though. I'm kinda wondering wtf that was about. Oh well. Hey it's 12:20! That means its tommorrow! Hurrah, Huzzah, and all other such words of joy and pleasure! That means it's time for a new:

Oh... and p.s. The "dirty" feeling? Don't get all riled up... It's nothing sexual... I just REALLY need to wash my hair. Its gross... Thought you'd all like to know...

Don't let it go away
This feeling has got to stay
Don't let it go away
This feeling has got to stay
And I can't believe I've had this chance now
Don't let it go away

New, you're so new
You, you're new
And I never had this taste in the past
New, you're so new

My normal hesitation is gone
And I really gravitate to your will
Are you here to fetch me out?
'Cause I've never had this taste in my mouth

You're not old
And you're not familiar
Recently discovered and I'm learning about you

New, you're so new
You, you're new

And you're consuming me violently
And your reverence shamelessly tempting me
Who sent this maniac?
'Cause I never had this taste in the past

You're different, you're different from the former
Like a fresh battery I'm energized by you

(chorus)

Why am I so curious?
This territory is dangerous
I'll probably end up at the start
I'll be back in line with my broken heart
New, you're so new
You, you're new
And I never had this taste in the past

(chorus)

And I can't believe it
Can't believe it
Can't believe it
Can't believe it
Don't let it go away, this feeling has got to stay
Don't let it go away

However, since today is technically yesterday right now...

YESTERDAY'S QUOTE OF THE DAY!
"Hurl'd headlong flaming from th'Ethereal Sky
With hideous ruin and combustion down
To bottomless perdition, there to dwell
In Adamantine Chains and penal Fire,
Who durst defy th'Omnipotent to Arms.
Nine times the Space that measures Day and Night
To mortal men, he with his horrid crew
Lay vanquisht, rolling in the fiery Gulf
Confounded though immortal: But his doom
Reserv'd him to more wrath; for now the thought
Both of lost happiness and lasting pain
Torments him; round he throws his baleful eyes
That witness'd huge affliction and dismay
Mixt with obdurate pride and steadfast hate:
At once as far as Angel's ken he views
The dismal Situation waste and wild,
A Dungeon horrible, on all sides round
As one great Furnace flam'd, yet from those flames
No light, but rather darkness visible
Serv'd only to discover sights of Woe..."

Lines 45-64 of Milton's "Paradise Lost"

My hand asleep for hours
Waiting for the needles to begin
I have no control
They proceed to penetrate my skin

Acting as your slave
I drink for amber waves
I never have embraced
Acting as your slave
I drink an open grave
An epitaph defaced

Killing with compassion
She hasn't heard a word that I have said
Swallowing your passion
I can see a thousand miles ahead

Acting as your slave
I drink for barricades
That I have often raised
Acting as your slave
I numb my head and rave
Of epitaphs defaced

Acting as your slave
I drink while she forgave
With trials left unfaced
Acting as your slave
I stumble to her grave
An epitaph defaced

Don't Fear

All our times have come
Here but now they're gone
Seasons don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind the sun or the rain (we can be like they are)
Come on baby (don't fear the reaper)
Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper)
We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper)
Baby I'm your man
La-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la

Valentine is done
Here but now they're gone
Romeo and Juliet
Are together in eternity (Romeo and Juliet)
40,000 men and women everyday (like Romeo and Juliet)
40,000 men and women everyday (redefine happiness)
Another 40,000 coming everyday (we can be like they are)
Come on baby (don't fear the reaper)
Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper)
We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper)
Baby I'm your man
La-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la

Love of two is one
Here but now they're gone
Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear she couldn't go on
Then the door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew then disappeared
The curtains flew then he appeared (saying don't be afraid)
Come on baby (and she had no fear)
And she ran to him (then they started to fly)
They looked backward and said goodbye (she had become like they are)
She had taken his hand (she had become like they are)
Come on baby (don't fear the reaper)

German dogs get their own lederhosen

Canines in Bavaria can now sport traditional attire

Michaela Rehle / Reuters

A dog named Spitzerich wears a traditional Bavarian hat in Hailing, near the southern German town of Straubing, June 16.

STRAUBING, Germany - Dogs in the German state of Bavaria can now blend in with the local Alpine scenery wearing the same traditional attire worn by their owners — lederhosen.

Dogwear designer Hildegard Bergbauer, who also makes Tyrolean mountain hats and rainwear for canines, said the leather outfits were best suited for dachshunds and other small dogs but also looked good on poodles, spaniels and boxers.

“There are lederhosen for the dogs and Dirndls for the bitches,” she said Wednesday. “The idea has gone down really well. People think it’s a lot of fun.”

Bergbauer said some items were more practical than others.

“The hats aren’t so handy for going on walks,” she said. “But the lederhosen are fine once the dog gets used to them.”

in a forest of stone
underneath the corporate canopy
where the sun
rarely
filters
down
the ground
is not so soft
not so soft

they build buildings to house people
making money
or they build buildings to make money
off of housing people
it's true
like a lot of things are true
i am foraging for a phone booth on the forest floor
that is not so soft
i look up
it looks like the buildings are burning
but it's just the sun setting in the window
the solar system calling an end
to another business day
eternally circling signally
the rhythmic clicking on and off
of computers
the pulse
of the american machine
the pulse
that draws death dancing
out of anonymous side streets
you know
the ones that always get dumped on
and never get plowed
it draws death dancing
out of little countries
with funny languages
where the ground is getting harder
and it was
not
that
soft
before

those who call the shots
are never in the line of fire
why
where there's life for hire
out there
if a flag of truth were raised
we could watch every liar
rise to wave it
here
we learn america like a script
playwright
birthright
same thing
we bring
ourselves to the role
we're all rehearsing for the presidency
i always wanted to be
commander in chief
of my one woman army

but i can envision the mediocrity
of my finest hour
it's the failed america in me
it's the fear that lives
in a forest of stone
underneath the corporate canopy
where the sun
rarely
filters
down
and the ground
is not so soft

roll with it

she says my ass hurts
when i sit down
she says my feet hurt
from just standing around
i think my body
is as restless as my mind
and i don't know if i can roll with it
this time

packed his uniforms
and drove him to the base
she was crying all the way
the world looked her in the face
and said
roll with it, baby
make it your career
keep the home fires burning
till america is in the clear

the mainstream is so polluted with lies
once you get wet, it's so hard to get dry
we're all taught how to justify
history
as it passes by
and it's your world
that comes crashing down
when the big boys decide
to throw their weight around
but just roll with it baby
make it your career
keep the home fires burning
till america is in the clear

what if the enemy
isn't in a distant land
what if the enemy lies behind
the voice of command
the sound of war
is a child's cry
behind tinted windows,
they just drive by
all i know is that those
who are going to be killed
aren't those who preside
on capitol hill
i told him,
don't fill the front lines
of their war
those assholes aren't worth dying for
but he said
roll with it, baby
make it your career
keep the home fires burning
till america is in the clear

she says my ass hurts
when i sit down
she says my feet hurt
from just standing around
i think my body is as restless as my mind
and i'm not gonna roll with it this time
no, i'm not gonna roll with it this time

Yeah... Ani lyrics...These were both written during the gulf war, but I think they apply today... The second one means alot to me especially considering my b/f was in the army for 3 years and was in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not anti- american or anything. I just am not particularlly happy with how the country is being run right now. The economy is shit, and there a ton of jobs lost while very few are created. There are people with doctorates in law and biology and such working at K-Mart and waiting tables. That's not right. Not to mention, of course, the millions of dollars being taken from education and giong into fighting a useless and unprovoked war in Iraq.
And don't even try to tell me that bullshit about weapons of mass destruction, or about the Iraqi government helping agents of Al Quida. The first is crap, and we all know it, and the second was never proved and everyone involved is dead so we'll never know. We just went in and killed hundreds of Iraqi citizens because Bush wanted to prove he could. I am ashamed that Britain and America got involved in this glorified pissing contest.
In any case, these are just my views... If you don't like it, oh well, that's your problem... this is MY journal, not yours...

Moonlighting cops star in porn movie

Two San Francisco officers under investigation

Updated: 9:58 a.m. ET May 27, 2004

SAN FRANCISCO - Two San Francisco police officers have come under investigation after their departments discovered they had starred in a pornographic movie entitled "Bus Stop Whores" that is circulating on the Internet.

advertisementThe officers, Kelly Francisco of the San Francisco Sheriff’s Department and Darryl Watts of the city’s police department, play a prostitute and a john in the film, whose teaser is, “These girls won’t ride a bus today!” according to local news reports.

The two are being investigated for any violations of criminal law or administrative rules, but have not faced disciplinary action, department representatives said Wednesday.

Watts has been taken off patrol duty and reassigned to an administrative position pending the outcome of the investigation, said Maria Oropeza, an SFPD spokeswoman. Francisco continues to work as an institutional officer at San Francisco General Hospital, said Sheriff’s Department chief of staff Eileen Hirst.

Attempts to reach the two officers for comment were unsuccessful.

British 10-year-old charged in soccer riot

Suspected boy could be England’s youngest hooligan

Updated: 5:29 p.m. ET May 27, 2004

LONDON - A 10-year-old boy was charged on Tuesday with violence in a soccer match riot, becoming what officials believe could be the youngest suspected football hooligan in the annals of British crime, police said.

advertisementSoccer in England suffered from hooliganism during the 1970s and 1980s but has recently been largely under control, apart from sporadic outbursts at England internationals.

The boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was arrested following trouble at a match in March between south coast rivals Portsmouth and Southampton.

“The 10-year-old boy will appear before a youth court this Thursday,” a police spokeswoman said. He will be charged with violent disorder.

A Home Office spokesman said it was likely he was the youngest ever soccer hooligan suspect because children under 10 cannot be charged with criminal offences.

A 14-year-old girl also remains on bail, police said, among more than 30 people who were charged after one the worst outbreaks of soccer violence in recent years.

hahaha yeah... I love the news...

The shade is a tool / A device / A saviour / See I try and look up / To the sky / But my eyes burn

I feel soon
I will sink into you
What do you think?
'cause there's still blood
In your hair and
I've gotta bruise
Of the year

But there's something about her
long shady eyes
I'm all about her
shade tonight

I hate your tattoos
You have weak wrists
But I'll keep you

But there's something about us
long shady eyes
I'm all about her
shade tonight

Well it's too bad
It's too bad
It's too bad you're married
To me
