    'Tis time to take a bow and thank your lucky stars that all, has not turned ugly... I guess I expected to much. It could be worse.

    Agreed!

    Undoubtedly, we are talking about entirely different things.

    It could be worse. Wait... Yes, it could be.

    You're in denial though.
    I'm just annoying.
    For I have known them all already, known them all:
    Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
    I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
    I know the voices dying with a dying fall
    Beneath the music from a farther room.

    So how should I presume?

    I love new socks, they're so springy too bad they don't stay like that throughout the socks life.

    Ditto.

    Somebody should invent that.

    Every one of Stanley Kubrick's films from Dr. Strangelove on deal with violence in one form or another. Whether if it be cosmological, political, sociological, anarachatic, totalitarian, psychological or sexual, violence and its strong ties to human nature is probably the most prominent themes in his films. And like an indifferent pupper-master, he deals with these issues with a total lack of sentimentality or socail commentary and rather presents thing in such an artistic way, that it could be considered cruel. Just as most of Fellini's films were dances of existential wandering and confusion, while Scorsese's films were dances of the streets; Kubrick's films are elegant ballets of depravity.

    If I work hard enough this summer, I might be able to audition for theatre play Eqqus come June.

    Ooo, Peter Shaffer. Who will you play? (though I don't remember there being any young ladies your age in the play, though I could be mistaken, it's been so long since I've read it)

    I'm twitchy, I feel like I'm going to jump out of my skin.

    Why, oh why? Now I am going to have to change... Grrrrr. Just when I started getting used to things the way they are, I have to do a 360 and do the opposite. Argh!

    There is a girl in her early twenties named Jill Mason who plays opposite Alan Strang.

    I shouldn't have so much sugar... No... I should have more, so I can create a tolerance to it. Right now, my right leg is moving without my consent. Emm... My throat feels very tight... Nope, it doesn't. My leg isn't stopping.
    I know why this is! It is the sugar enhanced energy I call KFC TINGLES!!

    Thought 1: Oh I'm so annoying sometimes.

    Thought 2: I feel so lonley Though I've had one of my special friends to converse with me on msn (thanks rimbaud ) I'm just feeling greatly isolated from life. Somehow I just want to talk with every one of you because there you many interesting and kind people here that I could spend my whole life talking to each one of you for hours and be happy. Idk, I'm weird like that, but there's nothing I love more than a great lengthly conversation. Far too many people in my real life are too shallow. You all are wonderfully interesting, and if you ever want to talk with me (when I'm not busy) my msn adress is [email protected] and I also have a facebook. Work has just seemed to have drained me, and I have a real longing for human contact. (again, thank you rimbaud for talking with me for so long, it's really nice to talk to somebody amongst all of my tiredness.)

    Of any of you who want to talk, I can't say that I will be available often, so don't expect much :S

    Take the 'Plato' out of Platoism, and the 'phyics' out of metaphysics, and you've got a pretty decent view of philosophy.
