Burn ( by Ray LaMontagne)

Why do people say " Don't worry about it, It won't happen in a million years"... It's not like we’ll ever have a million years to test that shit out. Yeah, I know, it's ridiculous. Like people saying "I have no regrets. If I had a choice I wouldn't change a thing"... I mean do they even sit down and consider the alternatives. What if the alternative was being born as rich as a king, the body of a god and superpowers like flying and shit. Make any man or woman fall in love with you and do whatever you want where you want. How the fuck is that absurd thing an alternative. Ok I went a bit overboard. But there are always alternatives to consider. True. But sometimes you’ve just got to realise that you’re all alternativ-ed out. This conversation isn’t going anywhere. Why do people say that? Why the intent to always get everything somewhere. Something even as everyday as conversations.

Jamaica Farewell

Apparently the Jamaicans had pissed off the Gay and Lesbian community somehow. I’m not sure how those hippy liberal buggers managed that, but they did. And the gay bar, in a show of reproach, ...

Another Brick In The Wall

Been hiding. Firstly there was the birthday recovering. Then there were other birthdays and recovering from them. Then there was random merry making. I think I'm turning into an alcoholic. I'd quit, but it's so much fun, and the alternative sounds like something me and my friends would laugh at. Which reminds me...isn't Apple the new Microsoft? In the evil empire way. It's everywhere. In the coffee shops, in the offices, on the tele, in hollywood, on that hot girls ear, in my ear. There's just so much peer pressure. My next laptop is going to be a windows based one. Ok I lie. Anyway. Oh and this was bound to happen. It was waiting to. Like a tick ticking timebomb. "Ineligible Bachelors: Indian Men Living in U.S. Strike Out" http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123896998996190775.html But really? "Wife hunting trips"... wtf is that? What cereal are these journalists eating? Should I be responding with "Anyone know a good hunting-jacket shop?...
