  • Song Lyrics – The White Stripes – We’re Going To Be Friends

    Date: 2009.08.31 | Category: Friends, Music, Quotes | Response: 1

    Just got back from Florida.

    Recently had this song stuck in my head. It seemed relevant to me.

    The White Stripes – We’re Going To Be Friends

    fall is here, hear the yell
    back to school, ring the bell
    brand new shoes, walking blues
    climb the fence, book and pens
    i can tell that we are gonna be friends

    walk with me, suzy lee
    through the park, by the tree
    we will rest upon the ground
    and look at all the bugs we’ve found
    then safely walk to school
    without a sound

    well here we are, no one else
    we walked to school all by ourselves
    there’s dirt on our uniforms
    from chasing all the ants and worms
    we clean up and now it’s time to learn

    numbers, letters, learn to spell
    nouns, and books, and show and tell
    at playtime we will throw the ball
    back to class, through the hall
    teacher marks our height against the wall

    and we don’t notice any time pass
    we don’t notice anything
    we sit side by side in every class
    teacher thinks that i sound funny
    but she likes the way you sing

    tonight i’ll dream while i’m in bed
    when sill thoughts go through my head
    about the bugs and alphabet
    and when i wake tomorrow i’ll bet
    that you and i will walk together again
    cause i can tell that we
    are going to be friends

  • Watchmen – Excellent

    Date: 2009.07.20 | Category: Books, Movies, Quotes | Response: 6

    I just finished watching the Director’s Cut of Watchmen.

    Holy.

    Shit.

    I read the comic years back and loved it. The dark and gritty story. The everyman super hero. I loved everything about it. It was such a change of pace from your normal black and white super hero story.

    The movie added even more to that. The directors cut didn’t shy away from any of the nasty bits either. That’s what I loved. It showed the absolutely most vile aspects of the story for exactly what they were, and said “This is your reality. It’s ugly. Deal with it.”

    At 3:06 from Opening to End of Credits it was a long ass movie. It was absolutely worth it.

    If you like action, can stomach some very graphic sex, violence, and EXTREMELY morally questionable behavior, then I recommend this for you.

    If the thought of watching someone get their arms cut off, or a dog eating a little girl makes you squeamish, then maybe this isn’t the one for you.

    If you have the stomach to see it through you’ll be rewarded with an excellent and thought provoking story, beautiful cinemtography, and HOT latex suit action courtesy of Malin Akerman playing Silk Spectre. Do yourself a favor and google search it.

    Also. Boobs!

    I’ll leave you with one of my favorite quotes from the movie:

    None of you seem to understand.
    I’m not locked in here with you…
    YOU’RE LOCKED IN HERE WITH ME!!
    -Rorschach

    Quote of the day upon waking up in San Francisco:

    I love when my drunk self does stuff to help out my sober self.
    -Burns

    This after waking up to find my shoes where they normally are, my cell phone plugged in and charging, my laptop plugged in and charging, and my contacts removed and in their case.

    I don’t know how all of these things happened as I have no memory of them, but drunk self, thank you!

  • Handgun Concealed Carry Permit

    Date: 2009.06.14 | Category: Quotes | Response: 3

    I’m taking the class for the NC Concealed Carry Permit. I’m thinking of a 9mm CZ P-07 Duty. Marv says he loves his, and it’s pretty light.

    Anyway, the instructor for this class is pretty awesome.  Here is a typical exchange between student and instructor.

    Student: So the Habitation Defense says  once he crosses your threshold and starts stealing your stuff, you CAN’T shoot him. What if he starts coming at you with a screwdriver.

    Instructor: Light Him Up!! In that case you meet the 4 prongs of the Use of Deadly Force in Self Defense Common Law.

    Awesome. I love that the precise definition of the law comes with color commentary. Perfect.

    Today I’m off to fire rounds at different distances under timed conditions. Wish me luck.

    I’ve added a new category for quotes. I always come across good ones, and I’d like to share.

    Let’s think the unthinkable, let’s do the undoable, let’s prepare to grapple with the ineffable itself, and see if we may not eff it after all.

  • Brand New – Sowing Season

    Date: 2007.09.26 | Category: Quotes | Response: 0

    It’s been a little while since I’ve posted random song lyrics. If you haven’t heard of this song Sowing Season by Brand New I recommend that you do.

    Was losing all my friends
    Was losing them to drinking and to driving
    Was losing all my friends and I got them back

    I am on the mend
    At least now I can say that I am trying
    And I hope you will forget the things I still lack

    Yeah
    Yeah

    Is it in you now?
    To bare to hear the truths that you were spoken
    Twisted up by knaves
    In a trap for fools

    Is it in you now?
    To watch the things you gave your life to broken
    You stoop and build them up with worn out tools

    Yeah

    Nothing gets so bad
    A whisper from your father couldn’t fix it
    Your whispers like a bridge, he’s a river span

    Take all that you have
    and turn it into something you were missing
    Somebody threw that brick
    And shattered all your plans

    Yeah

    Time to get the seeds and put them in the cold ground
    It takes a while to grow anything
    Before its coming to the end yeah

    Before you put my body in the cold ground, take some time to warm it with your hands
    Before it’s coming to an end, yeah

    It’s coming to an end

    Do you miss the blend
    Of colors she left in your black and white field
    Do you feel condemned just being there?

    I am not your friend
    I am just a man who knows how it feels

    I am not your friend
    I am not your lover
    I am not your family

    Yeah

    Time to get the seeds and put them in the cold ground
    It takes a while to grow anything
    Before it’s coming to the end yeah
