Three or four more days of this would be fantastic, I really enjoy days like this. I love not being able to see more than 20 feet down the street. My camera somehow is able to de-fog fog when I look through the lens...maybe I should walk around with the lens on my eye all day.
Songs of the day:
Dylan- Shelter From The Storm
Voxtrot- The Start Of Something
Nujabes- Aruarian Dance
Blur- Best Days
and I gotta throw in one off what is in my top 5 albums right now...
Miles Davis- Kind Of Blue
When i post multiple links like this, I'm not expecting people to listen to every youtube link. So, here's the songs zipped up in a nice little file.
This is my living room and my girlfriend on the couch.
This is on the way home from a nice day, and reminds me of such.
This is my sister. At this particular moment of time, if you were to ask her, she would tell you that "this is a fish" or "this is her being stubborn". I couldn't tell which one at the time.
This is my dinner tonight, and makes me want more.
So, I'm not going to get all emotional and do some big long sappy post about how high school is ending but to reference one of my favorite quotes ever.
I came across a passage I wrote down And I think that it really exemplifies what our nation is talking about
And it says that uh,
All things must come to an end It is an inevitable part of the cycle of existence All things must conclude Take the analogy of a tree that grows in Brooklyn Among the steel and the concrete With all its glorious branches and leaves One day it too will pass on its legacy Through the seeds it drops to the ground As the wind carries these seeds throughout the land in which they grew A new life will begin for each one of them as they stand as a monument to the one that came above.
I've always liked that. For better or for worse, high school has been pretty much what I expected it to be. . I did however, expect prom to be more of the whimsical night that modern media has made it out to be. I ain't gon front, it was nice, and I enjoyed it, but its SO overhyped. Anyways, I'm not going to get into a big thing over it, I really just needed this as a segway to talk about this movie Dazed and Confused.
There's alot of movies about high school, but Dazed and Confused takes the cake for best high school movie for sure, in my book atleast. All I'll say about the film is that its about a big group of teenagers on their last day of high school, and all the random shit they do. I def. recommend this for everyone to watch before high school expires. Check out the trailer...

* Half filling the glass with ice * Half filling the glass with Smirnoff * Half filling the rest with blue Gatorade. Only blue. No other kind worked.
4. The Lazy Susan
* Fill a glass with crushed ice. * One can of Dr Pepper. Fill glass 3/4 of the way, drink the rest of what is left in the can. * Fill the rest of the glass with cheap rum. * Unwrap a Hostess™ Sno-Ball. Preferably the pink one. * Take a large swig of your drink, and follow it with a large bite of the Sno-Ball. The trick is to finish both at the same time.
3. The Intervention.
Modified from the popular joke about the sexual position. Google it.
This particular drink has a history of a bet I lost while watching a certain episode of A&E’s “Intervention”. However, it’s a lot of fun.
* You will need one bottle of Peppermint Schnapps, and one can full of whipped cream, and a TV showing “Intervention”. That is how the original game was played - in a basement apartment, too. * Take shots of Peppermint Schnapps alternated with a mouthful of whipped cream every time a family member cries. 2. The Bacontini
I’ve actually seen this served in a real bar in New York - somewhat different.
* Cook 3 strips of bacon until crisp. * Immediately eat one. Why? Just because. * Crumble up the second one, put into ice in the Martini shaker. * Strain the gin and vermouth through one of those Martini shaker things. * Place other bacon strip into this new drink. * Congratulate yourself. 1. The Quantum Leap
* One tall can of PBR * One shot of vodka. * One shot of Jack Daniels. * One half can of Red Bull. * Mix. * Drink.

Germany has declined to patent a cyanide-equipped RFID chip developed in Saudi Arabia.
Basically, what this chip is is, it is implanted in a person, in order to track them and determine their geographical position. The chip however, is equipped with an incredibly dangerous poison called cyanide (what Hitler used to kill himself). The poison in the chip can be detonated and released remotely, killing whoever the person with the chip inside them is.
