Pointless Announcements

Saw this interesting headline on CNN. Not going anywhere near that one if (or likely when) it does happen.

 

But they don't have feelings. And that'd be a shame because you're probably one of the most positive, accomplished feelers I'm never going to meet.

 

A Borg vs. Cylon battle would be an epic I would watch in a heartbeat; I would rather see the more agile and better armed Cylons from the new BSG though. I suspect the Borg would adapt to the blasters from the original series quickly and make the hand to hand rather one sided.

 

I want to party with you.

 

Normally this is where I'd say something along the lines of "you can assimilate me anytime" but I'm just not feeling up to it today. Sorry.

 

I have to go tell a long term vendor we're not using them anymore. Won't be a fun meeting...

 

I had a dream last night that two of my friends (who have never met, and live in different states) were getting married. I was in love with both of them, and was trying to find a way to stop the wedding without actually saying, "hey, don't get married." Wackiness ensued.

 

Remember the cries of the carrots next time you eat one....

And the angel of the lord came unto me. snatching me up from my place of slumber, and took me on
High, and higher still until we moved through the spaces betwixt the air itself. and he brought me into a
Vast farmland of our own midwest. and as we descended, cries of impending doom arose from the
Soil. one thousand, nay, a million voices full of fear. and terror possessed me then. and I begged:
angel of the lord, what are these tortured screams? And the angel said unto me: these are the cries
Of the carrots. the cries of the carrot. You see, Reverend Maynard, tomorrow is harvest day, and to
Them, it is the holocaust. and I sprang from my slumber drenched in sweat with the tears of one million
Terrified brothers and roared: hear me now, I have seen the light. they have a consciousness! they
Have a life! they have a soul. damn you! let the rabbits wear glasses. save our brothers. can I get an
Amen. can I get a haleluia. thank you, jesus.

This is necessary.
Life feeds on life.

It was daylight when you woke up in your ditch. you looked up at your sky. that made blue be your
Color. you had your knife there with you, too. when you stood up, there was goo all over your
Clothes. your hands were sticky. you wiped them on your grass, so now your color was green. oh,
Lord, why did everything have to keep changing like this. you were already getting nervous again. your
Head hurt, and it rang when you stood up. your head was amost empty. it always hurt you when you
Woke up like this. you crawled up out of your ditch, onto your gravel road, and you began to walk,
Waiting for the rest of your mind to come back to you. you could see the car parked far down the
Road, and you walked toward it. if God is our father, you thought, then satan must be our cousin. why
Didnt anyone else understand these important things. when you got to your car, you tried all the doors.
They were locked. it was a red car, and it was new. there was an expensive leather camera case
Laying on the seat. out across your field you could see two tiny people walking by your woods. you
Began to walk towards them. now red was your color. and of course, those little people out there
Were yours, too.

 

Not going to start a new thread on this topic, but this single post was inspired by a recent thread that is obvious enough.
It really irks me when people take a grandiose, sanctimonious, or anything else in that general category stand in the name of "Christianity". Putting yourself first or trying to browbeat your point of view into people never works in any kind of positive manner.

 

Work doesn't suck. This is cool.

Don't worry. I wouldn't DARE marry anyone from one of those Carolina states. They sound funny and also smell funny.

 

FTFY

 

as scary as it sounds I am considering looking at DirectTV. They offer what DISH did not (and is still lacking now) back when I had a live television feed from them.
They have a base package with TCM, Food Network (90% of what I would DVR right there, with the emphasis on TCM), and AMC so I could watch the Walking Dead freshly DVR'ed rather than pay Itunes. When I dropped DISH the package I had was missing both TCM and AMC and more than I wanted to pay to upgrade to get them.

 

The poor dog wants to be lovingly held by the three year old whether she likes it or not. EJ is ignoring her subtle hint of running away when she gets near.
