Get off the potty!
Who the fuck is running this country! Surely there is a sith lord out there who wishes to be emperor?
White House says Bush didnt know that the UAE was going to run 6 major US ports
Weekends were made for mall whoring
Friday was a blah. So cold I almost stayed in but a 2nd round of stargates on sci fi and no netflixes (i swear i have been throttled. TUESDAY MY ASS) so i said fuck the cold. spiffie came out for a spell so that was ok.
Saturdy lunchings at Din Ho and then shopping for things at Fry’s. Me got the
on dvd. No I never really saw it but in pieces when it was on and even then in drunken hazes that prevented me from knowing what the fuck was gurrin on. I looked at cameras and spiffie looked for a portable dish washer for the new place. I fear the kitchen will be a mess if he doesnt find one but hey, we’ll manage.
Went out. Rain was hopping but most people stayed in cuz it was freezing rain. Smart call. Oilcan’s was lamer than a Friday but I managed to have a quasi-good time dancing and smoking. Had to drive all the way back downtown cuz the freeways were deadly and Mopac over town lake was closed and wrecked. Poor smashed cars. I came through barton springs and nearly slid through the intersection as I got to the last light before home. woo!
Sunday we went to china buffet. it was close and fast and filling so why not. went to beast buy for the lookings ats and I ran into my random makeout guy
David.
We chatted for a while and he said we needed to go out and I said but you never call! He called a week after new years and I didnt call him back cuz he’d said maybe he would and I wanted to see if he would and told him so. He apologized and said he would call last night and didnt. He’s been depressed cuz he had to put his dog to sleep. He got a new puppy though so he’s better. Gosh he’s so hot and I always feel empty and my body aches for him after I see him. Hate him!
Went to the mall to check out washers, cameras, and beds. Nice lady recommended the nicest 1700 dollar bed! That is wack. But like I told her, it’s cheaper than doctor bills and she and her daughter just nodded knowingly. The frame I really want is the
Camelot Wrap.
I’m SO ghey.
We wandered around the mall and spiffie got cheap shades and since you get like, 3 for 25 bucks he threw in these shade clips so I can wear them over my regular glasses so I dont go blind driving to work. It’s SO bright coming up Enfield and It’s really impossible to see. Cursed day star!
I tried this cologne
at Nordtsrom’s and just had to have it. It intoxicated me. Almost literally(viscerally) because to me it smells like whiskey. Yes, I bought it because it gave me memories of bourbon and sprite. spiffie thought it smelled spicy but in my head, it was all whiskey and sprite. I love it. Got it on now. Here, whiff!
And then it was sunday recuperate tv night and there’s just nothing better than Grey’s Anatomy. Seriously? Seriously! I don’t know if this show is to blame, but their sort of sophist use of Seriously seems to have Meme’d and spread into the world (or i just didnt notice it before) and it’s getting on my nerves. Still love the show.
Ok and lest I forget Eric Dane is just TEH HOT. He didnt show anything on Charmed, but in this Grey’s HUBBA HUBBA.
.
He’s going to be Jamie Madrox/Multiple Man in the X3 movie, whoever the fook that is, but lerrrrrd I’d have his baybehs.

News Corp. Goal: Make MySpace Safer for Teens
News Corp. Goal: Make MySpace Safer for Teens
This shit is bananas!
Why are all the media picking on Myspace anyway?
A kid can post information about themselves on any number of websites, webhosts, blogging sites, .mac accounts. The only thing about Myspace is that it’s social networking so you can follow a people trail. But as I said, if you’re out there, you can be linked to.
Granted Myspace could implement adult groups/profiles/picture flagging to make it more kidsafe. But you’d literally just have to ban kids from the internet to keep kids pedophile free, or at the very least create some software that blocks a kid from hitting a Submit form button without parental approval.
As far as I can tell, it’s the KIDS on Myspace that are more dangerous to the society at large (LOL) what with every kid-gone-crazy on the news having a Myspace account. I cant wait for those headlines: “Myspace Causes Mental Breakdowns and Mass Shootings in Children”.
Is it too much to ask for parents to have a little conversation about common sense with their children, and somebody else have a common sense chat with parents about actually paying attention to what their kids are doing? I get so tired of the caretaker society. Media flags on tv so your kids dont see violent drama. Hey, mom, turn the damn tv OFF.
LOL From La Tia Lencha’s Myspace blog
CHICANO GENIE
A Mexican lady was walking along the bank of the Rio Grande River when she stumbled upon an old empty cerveza bottle. She picked it up, rubbed it,
and SNAP!!! A Genie appeared. She talked with him awhile then the Genie
told her he would grant her ONE wish. She said to the Genie, “I heard from
mi prima that I could get three wishes if I ever found a Genie.” The Genie then said, “Oh no, sorry, esa. Three-wish genies are story-tale myth. I’m a ONE-WISH Genie, Uno, no mas! So…que quieres?” The lady didn’t hesitate. She said, “I want Peace in the Middle East. See this map? I want these countries to stop fighting with each other and I want all the Arabs to love Jews and Gringos and I want all the Jews and Gringos to love the Arabs. It will bring world peace and harmony.” she continued.
The Genie looked at the map and exclaimed, “Orale! BE REASONABLE!…..Those fools have a pedo that goes back thousands of years, chale! I’m out of shape after being in that bottle for five hundred years. I’m good, but NOT THAT GOOD!!! I don’t think it can be done.
PLEASE make another wish and please be reasonable.” The lady thought for a minute and said, “Well, I’ve never been able to find the right man. I want a
Mexican boyfriend….You know, one that DOESN’T DRINK ALCOHOL, nice y fun, likes cumbias, and helps with cleaning la casa. I want him to be great in
bed and gets along con mi familia, and is FAITHFUL and doesn’t throw
chingasos at me. That’s what I wish for….a good Mexican man!”
The Genie let out a long sigh, shook his cabeza and said, “Chingada
vieja!!!……Let me see that pinchi map again.”

Why Did the HHS Website Get Rid of Its Pages on LGBT Pride?
I read 100s of blogs a day. I dont know how I missed this story, or how my contemporaries did. I’m a little confused about it. It doesnt seem likely to me that HHS would pay somebody to design a gay positive site for them, but it looks like they did. How dare they create a gay site with taxpayer dollars! Nevermind that gay people pay taxes. Mayhaps it was a renegade webmaster with the homosexual agenda!
Thanks for the link

I liked this piece. It speaks to Jesus vs Christianity. Jesus is losing.

Yey. we can be slutty again, soon.
Oh noes. What about the syphilis.
Researchers, including a BYU scientist, believe they have found a new compound that could finally kill the HIV/AIDS virus, not just slow it down as current treatments do. And, unlike the expensive, drug cocktails 25 years of research have produced for those with the deadly virus, the compound invented by Paul D. Savage of Brigham Young University appears to hunt down and kill HIV. Although so far limited to early test tube studies, CSA-54, one of a family of compounds called Ceragenins (or CSAs), mimics the disease-fighting characteristics of anti-microbial and anti-viral agents produced naturally by a healthy human immune system.
Brokeback Bull Creek
I love this story
“It is predominantly men having sex with men. But let’s be clear, this is not a problem exclusive with Austin’s gay community.
“No, absolutely not. A lot of the people that we’ve arrested are professionals. Many of them have ben married, have children,” APD Sgt. Gerardo Gonzalez said.
“You can’t tell them apart. They’re not those ‘pervert guys.’ They look pretty normal, businessmen, family men,” Gonzalez said.
This shit cracks me up. And saddens.
These kinds of reports never ever analyze the background picture here. WHY do these men do this? Why engage in risky criminal behavior. Why do it where children are? (I find that suspect a little actually. Kids should be in school). Public sex is a thrill, si. Potentially getting caught is a thrill, si. Outdoor sex is hot, si. Sex where kids are runnin around is just not right. I might think Americans are such fucked up prudes treating sex like it was something nasty, dirty, sinful, and should be hidden from children (other cultures do not), but I shouldnt be foisting my beliefs on someone who doesnt agree, and truly, is a child old enough to agree? Havin a shag in your sleepin bag out in the woods at a campsite or over in a barn in the middle of nowhere is not quite the same.
But back to the background picture here. WHY?
It would never occur to the news to take a Brokeback Mountain critic approach to this and say what is it about our society that may cause this type of behavior. Married “heterosexual” men engaging in sex with other men in places where it’s criminal. “If ya cain’t fix it, ya gotta stand it.” This is not a healthy way to “stand it”.
Hey. America. Fix it. You can probably have your parks back if you do.
But back to my original thought about all this. The idea that these men are not gay. TEE HEE.
I look at gay in two ways. Kind of like jews. There are cultural Jews. There are religious jews. There are gay men who are men who have sex with other men, a purely physical thing. There are cultural gays, men who have a “gay lifestyle”: gay bars, gay bowling leagues, Project Runway. Some men are the sex with men types a lot of times because of self loathing, a lot of times because they are really misogynists and hate femininity, and a lot of times because they’re just fine and dandy living their life the way they do already (i wont say “normal”), they are attracted to men, know it, and when they want a little sum sum, they get it. They have no need for a sense of community based on their sex or attraction.
What I’m saying is, gay is to homosexual, in a more literal sense, just that: man on man sex. And takin it up the butt in the park is really teh gay.

An ass by any other Mac name
I dont really use my macintosh much. So i was disgruntled that when I pressed my monitor button to switch out the video input, upon waking from sleep, i got the beachball of DOOM. I sat there waiting for three minutes for it to freeze, say something, do something, and then restarted it.
When I was doing this I complained on the dot Com as I typically do about how shitty the Macs are. Mind you I was once a Mac zealot, 99% of my actual tech work is done on Macs, and I’m by no means dedicated to the PC because it looks cute and because it does tangential computer tasks (to me) like load up an Itune. Well, it can, but I dont. My attitude about music is like the rolodex. Yes I can digitize my rolodex, but it really takes me less time to just flip my real one on my desk open. Lots less time than logging on my computer, clicky click the program to start, do a seach, you get the picture.
So when I complained about my Macintosh (and really about my Macintosh experience in general I guess), I got a typical “mine doesnt”. I have a tendency to be colorful so brace yourselves. I said I fail to see how your computer experience is relevant. He said they’re both Macintoshes. I replied “We’re both Humans. My ass leaks like a faucet when I eat creamy fatty foods. Does yours?”
Then I went on to say everyone’s computer experiences are unique. Every computer problem is unique. Just like humans, things are supposed to operate and typically do in a standard fashion, and just like humans in their IDIC, computers do the same.
This is a horrible pun, but there was not much “rebuttal”. He said he was still “anal”yzing it.
I’ve had fights with people about this over the years since OS X. They try to apply their experiences to mine, and they dont. Sure you answered the phone at apple. Sure you “fixed” thousands upon thousands of people’s problems over the phone. But your average joe does not administrate. If he did, he’d know that the appleshare server admin software is a piece of shite and very buggy. If he did he’d likely have a completely different firewall/virus software configuration. If he did he’d likely use LDAP or something else to authenticate, or use only local authentication. Like I said, IDIC.
And like the smart nerds say, use the best tool for the job. Sometimes the best tool simply means, what you’re more comfortable with, and sometimes it means the actual best tool. The smartest of us nerds realistically have one of everything. One OS X PC. One IBM compatible Winboxen. One IMB compatible *nix flavor, if at least in a virtual drive or multi partitioned configuration.
I do so miss the days when I could just yank a suspected os 9 extension and be right back to fixed. Oh Macintoshes. Where did our love go.

Can you tell I hate meetings? I insist we stay on topic. I insist if we’re getting too involved we move on. I insist that if it starts to get into decision making processes and discussions, it needs to go to private meetings with those involved. I insist on no hemming and hawing; if you dont have any topics to bring up, move along. We don’t need to know you’re working ad nauseum status quo.
I’ve always told onliners who accuse my gruff attitude online to be out of character for me, and not be the real me, that I’m as gentle as a lamb, to come see me at work. You will see all my negative/alpha qualities exerted. I am smart enough to maintain decorum when I need to, but amongst my coworkers in my area, none.
Getting to knooooow you
When I was out on friday I was talkin to a friendly acquaintance about Myspace. He was saying good lord, these people on myspace need to get a life. I told him it was just a bunch of bored kids. In my day when we were bored we went outside to play kickball or wrestle. He’s not a geek and tends to be mostly a task oriented internet user. He readily admits Myspace’s utility in keeping in touch with friends he just doesnt have time to, to coordinate adventures and the like. However he doesnt let the internet suck up his free time.
So he was talkin about these myspace losers and I told him that I had a conversation at work about social networking and its application in the classroom. One of my colleagues was totally baffled by the draw and I had to explain to her it was half high school popularity contest and half Bar cruising.
In the course of our conversation he suddenly blurted out, Felipe, I have known you for a little while but I dont know ANYthing about you. Tell me about yourself. Where are you from, where did you go to school, what do you do, how many siblings do you have.
I was dumbstruck.
I know I’m an egotist, but I tend to think of myself as someone who talks about what I think, not about what I am. Whether or not that’s some defense mechanism is beside the point here. I think too I was shocked that somebody wanted to take the time to know these things. Most times people really just want to hear themselves talk and have someone there to hear it with them, to spur them on with mmhmms and uh huhs so they can hear themselves some more. Others want to know what’s going on in your life because they want to know somebody is having a good time even if they arent, or because they really dont, but ask anyway because that’s protocol, and never expect you to actually answer with real goings on.
I think, too, that I was flummoxed because of the whole inorganic feel of it. Most people find these types of things out in a getting to know you process. That’s how a lot of relationships just naturally develop. I dont really like to be interviewed. I felt put upon. It was really stage fright I guess. Like secrets should be meted out,slowly, give and take. You stab me in the back I’ll stab you back tit for tat.
But at the same time I was flattered. This guy wants to know me. What’s better than that?
