Beer at my buddy's.

He pulls a Molson Canadian out of his case and motions to ask if I want one. "Sure... last one?" "No," he says, there's two left and one of them's mine. So, if you want another, drink that faster than I drink mine.

My response? *glug-glug-glug-glug-glug*

Well my volleyball team lost again last night. That sucked... After we lost two games to none, she stuck around to play a bit more and that's when my teammates decided to play real good. What that ****!!! Oh well... I hope they do that when tournament games start next week. That should be interesting... losing our first game. Blah.

Dear Fellow Pawns;

For the last decade, I have lived a lie that I can no longer go on with. I have started each of the last 3,762 days by convincing myself that McDonald's would bring back the Double ZestaBurger--if only for a limited time and at only select locations. It was the only way I could get myself out of bed and through the day. Alas, I can no longer lie to myself about my future. I now accept that it is bleak. I do not control my destiny, nor my happiness.

Like all of you, I am just a pawn in McDonald's global marketing plan. The same company that has returned the McRib 193 limited times in the last 10 years has never given my well-being a second thought.

Well, McDonalds--You win. You have killed the will, spirit, and soul of dave. Now my body will follow. Thankfully, I will be going to a better place. A place where my existence won't rely on decieving myself. A place where my happiness won't be controlled by a multi-national conglomeration of grill cooks in cheap suits. While my body will be buried in the same ground where Ray Kroc's is surely spinning; my soul will be with his in heaven. Not here in purgatory controlled by the whims of MBA's from Hamburger U. Together Ray and I will forever feast on that delicious ambrosia, the Double Zesta Burger.

Sincerely,

dave

P.S. Tell everyone I'm not psychotic.

My friend amanda and a couple of her friends.
::: posted by Spook at Tuesday, November 11, 2003 | |

Amanda (the one on the very right) came over wanting to scan some pictures, but had brought over some other pictures, so I had a look. This was one of them and she didn't want to post it on her own homepage [Link] So I said "how about I post it?" Here it is.

We had been talking on the phone earlier and she told me she had told one of her friends about me... She's in this pic too.

Now I can only think of how creeped out she's gonna be when she sees her picture on my homepage.

Hmm...

Reading down memory lane.
::: posted by Spook at Sunday, November 09, 2003 | |

I was looking through some old disks I found stuff in a binder at the bottom of a box full of old stuff. I found some old assignments and notes from when I was in college and a zip file containing my old homepage. Wow, this is such a find because it contained my blog, some poetrty & short stories and even an old pic of myself. Omigod, I look like such a baby in that pic. I'm not sure if I should take offense to the line "you haven't changed a bit!" whenever I see someone I haven't seen in years.... Hmm.

I used to be really long winded...

But then, I had lots to say back then because my mind was always going non-stop and only had one setting: fast. Wow, I had a really nice website back then, no wonder why I got a thousand hits nearly every week. I'm enjoying reading my old posts and really wallowing in the complexity of my website. I think I had more fun making it complex as I did posting material.

I'm really laughing at the long weekend when I really got sick and still made it to class for an exam on tuesday morning. I was really bitchy and whiny for a couple days because I couldn't sleep, couldn't concentrate on studying and my girlfriend was out of town visiting her grandparents. And it was valentine's day that weekend! Oh wow, that really sucked, not having her there to make me feel better. Somehow, I had still managed to get an A+ on that test amidst my coughing and choking on my lungs. Come to think of it, I don't like remembering that weekend and it's not very funny at all. Blah.

Awwww....

Okay, I just read the posts where I had broken up with my girlfriend (crushed my heart, spirit and nearly my soul) and that's depressing reading that, but I've moved on. I feel like I'm reading someone else's blog, strange.

Awwww.....

I just read where I had an infatuation about a classmate of mine. I remember it lasted a few weeks and nothing came of it, but the next school year we dated for a couple months. That was sweet, but the initial infatuation was pure torture and she was kinda freaked out by it, as my school-bud Dave (another Dave, not a split personality of mine) told her I had been writing about and drawing her. She confronted me with accusations of stealing her likeness, so I had to show her all my poems and all the little sketches that were strewn throughout my binders and we immediately became friends afterwards.

Hmm, my old website had a nice blog. I wrote on nearly everything, but then I did have a lot to say about stuff. Plus, I had a nice group of intellectual friends with whom I enjoyed many conversations with. I wrote about the ice storm that happened in 1997, how the media covered Bill Clinton and Monica more than the Iraq Crisis (I said they'd strike us somehow and I WAS RIGHT! SEE WHAT HAPPENS! I SHOULD HAVE BUSINESS CARDS THAT SAY "DAVE M. PROPHET"), Keskus Mall closures, how my exams were going and about other cool websites. It was a busy li'l blog. (And all the posts were about this long)

::: posted by Spook at Friday, November 07, 2003 | |

Go placidly amid the noise and waste,
And remember what comfort there may be in owning a piece thereof.
Avoid quiet and passive persons, unless you are in need of sleep.
Rotate your tires.
Speak glowingly of those greater than yourself,
And heed well their advice -- even though they be turkeys.
Know what to kiss -- and when.
Remember that two wrongs never make a right,
But that three do.
Wherever possible, put people on "HOLD".
Be comforted, that in the face of all aridity and disillusionment,
And despite the changing fortunes of time,
There is always a big future in computer maintenance.

You are a fluke of the universe ...
You have no right to be here.
Whether you can hear it or not, the universe
Is laughing behind your back.

WHY I AM SO TIRED...
::: posted by Spook at Tuesday, November 04, 2003 | |

For a couple years I've been blaming it on lack of sleep, not enough sunshine, and too much pressure from my job, earwax build-up, poor blood or anything else I could think of. But now I found out the real reason: I'm tired because I'm overworked!

Here's why:

The population of this country is 30 million. 11 million are retired. That leaves 19 million to do the work.

There are 5.5 million in school, which leaves 13.5 million to do the work.

Of this there are 3 million employed by the federal government, leaving 10.5 million to do the work!

1 million are in the armed forces preoccupied with killing the Taliban. This leaves 9.5 million to do the work.

Take from the total the 7 million people who work for Provincial and city governments. And that leaves 2.5 million to do the work.

At any given time there are 476,000 people in hospitals, leaving 2,024,000 to do the work.

Now, there are 1,211,998 people in prisons and 812,000 on Employment Insurance and Welfare. That leaves just two people to do the work.

You and me.

And there you are sitting on your ass, at your computer, reading jokes. Nice, real nice...

"Slip through the Cracks"
The phrase will forever be burned in my memory. It actually fits for a lot things. Our powerful country will allow other smaller countries to slip through the cracks. It takes a very strong person to be powerful and to do the right thing. Most people will keep feeding the machine for their own personal gain at the expense of others. It's human nature. Where's Dag Hammarskjold when we need him. What is great about our country is not our money or our power, it's our Constitution. We take it for granted everyday. We confuse superficial happiness to real freedom. I remember being in Cuba for a film festival. The people I met in the streets had nothing, yet they were happy to be alive. (They'd be happier if they could own their own homes and businesses though). When I came back to L.A., the people who have everything were bitching about everything. They weren't very happy. I believe our Constitution is the most beautiful, simple, common sense creation humanity has ever produced. We abuse it. Our country has the capability of leading our distressed world into a new global renaissance. We have to stop being greedy. There's room for everybody. We're all part of the same human spirit, nobody has more worth than another.


New global renaissance? I like this idea, even if I'm not an american.
