"Good-bye Forever" Posted 16 years ago
Perhaps it's my time to leave here. Today, in class I sat back in my desk-chair and pondered about my life. Time stopped for awhile, and the voices from my peers, and instructor distorted. You can call this an acid-trip, but I'm no drug abuser, and will not be one for anytime soon. However, I had several images appear in my mind of all the horrific, stressful events that have taken place during my eighteen years of living on this strange, cruel, but somewhat wonderful plane of existence. Before, these eighteen years of stress, loneliness, fears, and traumatic scenarios that have shaped my present being, I experienced seven years of naive, because my father was around -- in fact, he was the only person I fully trusted, and share many of his talents, and character. He was a genius,...

"Excuse me, Thank you, Fuck you!" Posted 16 years ago
You know, when I was raised as a kid, my mother and father taught me how to behave. They taught me how to say, "No, maim", and "Yes, sir". I was groomed to shake hands with others as a form of greeting, smile, wait to speak after the person has stopped talking, take my hat off when I entered buildings, hold doors for others, say, "Excuse, me" when passing through a crowd, and other good manners. Believe it, or not at the age of twenty-five years I still hold these manners for others even if they're rude, and nasty. These manners are called, memes. Ideas, thoughts, actions that are transmitted from one person to another in the form of an image, or code (thoughts) stored in the brain, which brings us to another term, mind-viruses. You see, ladies...

"Aquarium and Coke" Posted 16 years ago
So, for my twenty-fifth birthday I rode the train to inner Atlanta, and visited the aquarium. The cost was $27, but, because I am a student at one of the four, or five universities here I had gained a discount. The price was discounted to $15, not bad, huh? Well, I walked into the aquarium all excited, and then it hit me! Whew! The smell was a little...fishy. Damn, do marine animals smell worst than land-lovers. Well, that wasn't a problem. I walked in, walked around the semi-crowded aquarium and enjoyed watching the animals do...whatever they do, er, swim. Listening to rude, loud, obnoxious kids, and my I-pod with selected songs from BlueTech (an awesome electronic, music artist that I recommend. Yes, this is what I listen...

"Happy Birthday, old man!" Posted 16 years ago
Yes, that's right. Today, well, more like in two hours I will be twenty-five (25) years of age. Another year older, another year wiser -- I think not. I feel myself losing my intelligence, or, perhaps it's me being surrounded by countless idiots. I don't normally celebrate birthdays, because to me it's just another day, but today I'm going to do two things, 1) go lift some weights, before the Georgia heat comes (I want whore myself in public by wearing tight muscle shirts), and 2) go to the Aquarium in Atlanta, Georgia -- it's the largest in the world. All I have to do is take the bus, then hit the train, and be at both places in less than twenty minutes.

I'm going to take my flip-video camera and make videos of random people in the streets. As usual, I will spend this b-day...

"Really? I mean, really?" Posted 16 years ago
Instead, why not just ask me, "Are you a nigger?" :| I find it interesting that every time I call myself an "American", I have the political correct machine telling me I'm not. Instead, I'm supposed to be called, an "African-American", a "Colored", a "Person of color". What the fuck? What are white people, people of absent color, despite they're not really "white"? Oi vey! I apologize for using such an ugly word, but, I'm just...man! :lol:

It deserves its own blog. Posted 16 years ago
Perhaps.

I don't know who she is, but I wish she was my wife/girlfriend. That would be the only wish I'd have in life.

You were expecting an "Edgar Allen Poe" pessimistic outlook of the world blog weren't you? Asshole. Nah, j/k

Or am I? >.>
"Return" Posted 16 years ago
I'm back. So, what I had was little flu that taken me out for week, and a few days. I remember the last day before I recovered, I thought I was dying. My eyes closed, I could barely breathe, and my joints ached. The problem was, you'll never believe, dust that triggered my almost forgotten allergies that plagued me when I was a kid, and stress. In order to stay/keep in shape, I work out, and at times, I'm a workaholic. I neither stop thinking, nor working. Resting in a chair, or bed, I find myself pacing back and forth speaking to myself with deep philosophical debates. A few people who know me, scream at me for talking to self, because they believe it will drive me insane -- I tell them, you're ten years late I am already insane, because I am sane in an insane world, only to get an...

The End? Posted 16 years ago
So, I came back from the doctor's yesterday, and everything seemed fine until I returned home. My original symptoms were flu like, but now they're more. My nose bleeds, and I cough up blood -- appears I have internal bleeding somewhere, so I am going back to the doctor's. My doctor is kind of far. For those who are familiar with Atlanta, Cobb, Gwinnett, etc. will know. I live in South Fulton, and my doctor is in Dunwoody, a rather pleasant area.

I have other symptoms as well such as heartburns from coughing, vomiting, vomiting a little blood, hard of hearing, losing my voice, excessive sweating (it's cold down here), chronic couching, wheezing, belching, joint pains, burning mouth, burning lips, and headaches. People have to repeat things several times for me to hear. So, if...

"Blog-Worthy" Posted 16 years ago
This may be blog (Why does spell check underline 'blog' as incorrect?) worthy, or random thread worthy.

I think the best, and fastest way to take a shower is with your clothing on. So, you can go out, and be clean at once, and it's less than a few minutes. I do a lot of crazy shit that could possibly put Monty Python to shame. For instance, I slept on the roof of my abode last night, until the neighbors came around and rolled their eyes in terror. Ah, nothing like watching a man slumber on a roof; one wrong turn, and I could have tumbled and plummeted to my death from the height of thirty feet, give or take a few feet. Below are some things I wanted to do throughout last week, up until this morning:

1. Run around naked in the woods.

2. After...

"Black Friday: The Darkening of the Human Soul" Posted 16 years ago
So, there I was. I’m sitting in a car, approximately four in the morning, rubbing my hands together to stay warm. My mother is in the passenger seat. She gave second glances at the clock, and the doors at the Wal-Mart to open. There’s a line as far the eye can see that wraps around the store and across to another shopping plaza. People bundled in leather jackets, and hats. Some with radios, while others in tents and warm foods. I really shake my head. I loath, no, I abhor “Black Friday”.

The doors open, and the masses swarm in. No, they did not walk swiftly in. Nope, they run and nearly knock one another down. Elderly women knocked to the ground by young women, and large men stampede over their own children – it’s like watching elephant seals getting away from an ocean...
