Soundtrack: I stayed awake for hours again last night Searching for a reason to keep up the fight I've made choices I don't regret I've got problems I don't get I didn't want to carry the heavier load You can't always take the middle road There comes a time when you make up your mind And the point gets left behind Oh let's wait one more day for the conversation One more day to make it right Let's get away from the confrontation One more day just buying time For years and years you can drift alone And write another verse to an endless song Wait one more day till the time is right Hoping that you both see the light You won't see the light Oh let's wait one more day for the conversation One more day to make it right Let's get away from the confrontation One more day just buying time I'm not afraid to sleep alone I'm not afraid to be alone Stayed awake for hours again last night Just searching for a reason to keep up the fight I've made choices I don't regret But I've got problems and problems and problems and problems... Oh let's wait one more day for the conversation One more day to make it right Let's get away from the confrontation One more day just buying time --Great Big Sea, "Buying Time" Axioms: "He saw something? Ask him if he's Catholic. He might've seen the Virgin Mary. She's been showing up in every driveway, oil spill and thawing icicle from Buffalo to Matamoros." --Bartcop, on the Miami Herald employee who claimed to see something in the jockey's hand "Also, I think people are being unnecessarily critical of the monkeys. There are plenty of times when urinating, defecating, or beating on a computer with a rock are not only appropriate gestures but also the best course of action." --Nik, in response to article about monkeys and a computer in the last issue "One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors." --Plato "Where did this idea come from that everybody deserves free education, free medical care, free whatever? It comes from Moscow, from Russia. It comes straight out of the pit of hell." --Texas state Rep. Debbie Riddle, proving the above quote "I don't think there's a section for "first cousin once removed," but this is Rhode Island, so there ought to be." --Me, while looking for a birthday card The "$Include Bitnodes" Award: To local politicians who are contemplating filling the budget hole by taxing clothes. $include bitnodes. The Skip Memorial "Hey What the Fuck?" Award: To the jury that voted to give Jenna the million. Hey what the fuck? The "Bless You" Award: To the Cranston City Council, for finally getting the hell out of Krispy Kreme's way. Bless you. The Bad Karma Quote: "Stay away from me, man. I think you got the worst karma of anyone I ever met." --The Butterfly of Love in The Milagro Beanfield War Quote of the year (so far): "GOD DAMN IT!"--T. Adler Other randomness: Too bad our General Assembly doesn't go into hiding too. Assessment: Must stay awake. Need protein. Other than that, okay. Famous last words: "I know when I'm not needed." --Me |
