My Head Hurts

I close my eyes and see you there
God damnit I see you everywhere
You're laying there on the floor
Smiling so big with your glasses on
Your hair pushed up inside a bun
Seems like you're having so much fun

Sometimes these thoughts get too deep
As I pray for you every night before I sleep
These feelings only you have touched
I never asked the world for much

I can't escape these thoughts of you
These thoughts of you they're killing me
It seems there is only one escape
Unfortunately it's one I cannot take

You were sitting there taking a bath
Thinking of me with your rubber duckies
You decided to call, I remember it all
How that night I wish I didn't fall
I should have stopped and talked to you longer
Instead I had to go back to class and ponder
God damn I miss you

What comes around goes around

Hah, just read that Microsoft is interested in purchasing eBay. That is funny, Microsoft eBay??

So last night I went to hang out with my buddy Derek at Zonni's. It was empty, what do you expect at the end of Memorial Day weekend? Anyways, he mentioned the word "untouchables" to me... basically an untouchable is a girl who is so hot and stuck up that she loves attention but thats as far as she'll go. I'm also pleased, in a way, to announce that what comes around goes around. And it appears it is going around. Finally some closure :)

Quote of the Day:

Never go to bed mad. Stay up and fight.

X-Men Review

Ok so last night I saw X-Men 3. Waited in line for hours, outside too! Oh well I guess it was worth it, it was a pretty good movie. Jean Grey/Phoenix was played by Famke Janssen and if you don't mind me saying for an older woman she's a hottie. My kinda girl! But Phoenix made its appearance very rampantly throughout the movie. I love the effects they did with her. She looked very evil in a sexy kinda way. Can you imagine the make-up sex with a girl like that!!? (as long as you're still alive hah).

The only problem I had with X3 is that the storyline seemed to jump around too quickly. It wasn't as smooth as X-Men 1 or X-Men 2. They introduced Juggernaut in the movie, a somewhat brief appearance. A plus in the movie was Mystique appearing in human form. I was always curious as to who played her. She's cute.

Poems
It has come to my attention I have not posted a poem in a while. Don't worry, they're coming.

And my quote of the day,

Always behave like a duck - keep calm and unruffled on the surface but paddle like the devil underneath.

Holy Strawberries Batman We're in a Jam!

So I haven't posted in a while. Been busy I guess, getting some new ideas off the clouds and putting them on the stove. Well today the Net Neutrality bill passed the House Committee by a vote of 20-13... not bad, now just one more round to go.

And yes, I am finally fed up with the lack of extensibility in Google's personalized home. And it is time to do something about it!! Lets see what I can conjour up in the next few weeks.

My daily Quote:

Strange as it seems, no amount of learning can cure stupidity, and higher education positively fortifies it.

Da Vinci Code Movie Review

To start, I did not read the book. So I went to see it last night and well how can I put it, I was disappointed. If you followed the Google Quest then it probably hyped you up pretty good. The movie was good but in my opinion there were character development issues and not enough puzzles! But the movie's plot went rather smoothly.

Sophie was a definite hotty. she was played by a good actress. Silas was an interesting guy and I think he played the part very well. Langdon, or Tom Hanks, was a strange character, didnt make a lot of sense to me in a few parts. I did like the end though, they actually left you with closure rather than leaving the ending open which I was very thankful for.

Overall it's a pretty good movie but you can only form your opinion by watching the movie yourself.

Flagship (poem)

Flagship sailing now away
Wont you stop and say you'll stay
Your provenance is yet unknown
With your departure the wind has blown

Flagship sailing farther now
You sail so fast I ask you how?
Like the evil bird a raven
You have left this sacred haven

Flagship gone now from my horizon
Leaving me behind still and frozen
I'm leaving these shores now for good
I'm suggesting now you too should

Google Book Search, Cool Stuff

Heard of Google Book Search yet? I just stumbled across it and thought it was worth mentioning. You can search literally thousands of books just from typing in a search string. I tried a search for ASP.NET 2.0 and got plenty of results including ASP.NET web hosting, O'Reilly books, and plenty others. For the most part the advertisements were about ASP.NET Website Hosting and that but the books had limited preview only. Unfortunate because it would be great to read them. However copyright more than likely comes in to play. But if you're doing a report I'm sure you can get plenty of information!

ASP.NET 1.1 and ASP.NET 2.0 web hosting shows up. The www.asp.net site is a portal site for the ASP.NET development community. From here you can download ASP.NET, download Web Matrix - a free web builder. Asp.net 2.0: A Developer's Notebook.

Packaged Meat (poem)

Damaged again
Am I just the rotten meat
That you pick up at the store?

Picked up by one
Tossed back again
Picked up by two
Broken in again

Wont a shopper take me in
Cook me and eat me
I'm processed meat
Packed and wrapped in this skin
Discolored on the outside

You would never know
Deep on the inside
I was packed so gentle
Sealed with so much love

But noone will ever know
Because I've pushed myself down
Hidden behind the others
That you take for granted

Slowly I'll turn to poison
And finally she'll find me
But its too late by then

She'll cook me and eat me
I'll run through her veins
My poison taking over
Stopping the beat
of her beautiful heart

Anger Train (poem)

What its not about
Is exactly what its about
Stepping on stones
Over shark infested waters

You arrive on the scene
Jumping the wall
Being careful not to fall

Find your enemy
Ready your fists for many
Your target is acquired
Focus the hatred in

Clinche the fists of fire
Walk tall towards him
Unleash a holy vindication
Breaking his disrespect

Adapt yourself to the fear
Let it engulf your soul
Set your place
In the minds of others
Acknowledging your brothers

What its not about
Is exactly what its about
Get off the tracks
When the train is coming through

MI 3 / Mission Imposible 3

Ok so I just got home from watching Mission Impossible 3. Lets get straight to it... I give it a 7 out of 10. Not a bad movie but I must admit I liked part 2 better. Still a good movie to watch, head over to cinemark and pay... now! Ok maybe not now but the movie is good, there are a few aggravating points to the movie but without spoiling it lets just say they leave a few unknowns by the time the movie is over. Not much sex in the movie, or at all so for those of you with weak eyes fear not!
I must admit the bad guy did a pretty good job acting, I remember him before thinking he was a B movie level actor, however it was nicely played this time around.

Anyways, it's late, I have work tomorrow (or today), and I am quite tired! And do you see the AdSense links above and below? Yea? Feel free to visit them if you find them interesting, as I like the $0.08 / click I get from them - Don't worry I've only made $2.00 in the past month :
Ah, and dreams... Make sure you are living your life with a dream. More on this on my next post (hopefully).

Fake Best Buy Clerks

Hah, there is a funny article on CNET News about a synchronized prank at a Best Buy store in which 80 people joined together in blue shirts and khakis, so that they look like Best Buy employees. They didn't say they worked for Best Buy but can you imagine having a look-a-like Best Buy rep everywhere? In the tech area, the gaming area... every movie and dvd aisle... Hilarious!

Here's the full article. Enjoy!

(If only I could arrange a similar prank)

Ah, and my quote of the day:

If you live to be one hundred, you've got it made. Very few people die past that age.

Vindicate (poem)

Time is flying so fast
My memories begin fading in the past
You can see it in my face
I'm tired of this place
But you share this moment only once
And you can't turn back the clock
Its a wish on a star thats long burned out
You see yourself in your own eyes
And play yourself to be what you think you are
But we can see right through you

And the wind sails through
Slowly skating on the ice
One last time to bring the thunder
That covers my last wish on the sky
And rumbles away my dreams
In a flash of light
Striking the same place twice

I planted a seed to grow
Gave it sunlight and water too
The seed grew up in the blink of an eye
It was beautiful but it wouldn't last
When you open your eyes in the morning
You'll see it has all passed
And there is nothing left to show
But a dream that needs to be found again

And the wind sails through
Slowly skating on the ice
One last time to bring the thunder
That covers my last wish on the sky
And rumbles away my dreams
In a flash of light
Striking the same place twice

When you're driving home
And you're wondering if it just might
You'll see you're wrong its true
Leave a dream behind and find yourself alone
So that one day you'll cross the desert
Realizing that you have lost your dreams
But I'll find myself again
And find my dreams realizing what this life means
And a smile crosses my face
Knowing I'm not destined to die in this place
You'll see when I return
I have no more reasons to mourn

And the wind sails through
Slowly skating on the ice
One last time to bring the thunder
That covers my last wish on the sky
And rumbles away my dreams
In a flash of light
Striking the same place twice
