I don't spend a lot of money at all anymore, i'm kinda terrified to let it go because of what happened last year. But I gotta say that i've never made this good of a purchase, these headphones i bought are AMAZING. They make listening to music a million trillion times better.

I'm almost low tone deaf so i don't enjoy music like i used to, but with these...it's unbelievable...

What headphones you say?

Those bad boys...for the price..you cant beat it...

It's Illi-Noy...NOT ILLI NOISE

If i hear one more person pronounce Illinois as Illinoise...i'm gonna lose my god damn mind and go on a kitten punching spree...


Seriously is it really that hard to keep the S silent? I mean really? We all went to grade school right? Oh wait it's mostly southerners that pronounce it like that and most of them cant spell their own names let alone pronounce a state that was named after an Indian tribe... GRR!


Bite the curb you hicks!

ugh...politics

So i thought "great idea, i'm going to join the Libertarian party". Because i was thinking how much i hate the two main parties and how you can't possibly be anything but one or the other in most peoples eyes. But lately the agenda of the Libertarian party is "lets just not do anything that will piss off the democrats or republicans."

So here i am, without a party affiliation but with a lot of thoughts on what i want my party to represent. I'm not Liberal and i'm not conservative, i dont lean a little to the left or a little to the right, and i'm certainly not "in between" because i dont consider myself to have to choose between those two. I'm just myself, and i'm tired of the typical crap that our politicians try to pull, especially being that i live in Illinois anyone who reads this can understand after the two governors we've had.

What we need in office is common sense, and no agenda, people who will do what's right for the people not what's right for campaign contributors. But there's to many hands in to many pockets so this will never come true. We'll forever be stuck with the Obama's and Bush's of the world.

Facing Life

I truly have a deep appreciation for life, sometimes i forget to think about it but for the most part when i wake up, i appreciate that first thought upon waking. I've learned to find happiness in all the little things, that's why i say i'm an easily entertained person.

I wasn't always like this though, it took a near death experience a few years back to make me open my eyes, to make me see who was really there for me and cared. Most of the people who know me already know what happened but long story short, my stomach had issues.

When you're lying in a hospital bed for weeks with nothing to do you tend to do a lot of thinking, especially on the night when the doctors said they didn't think i was going to make it. I don't think a lot of my friends and family realize exactly the impact this had on me cause i've never really talked about it. You question everything though, for instance, is this how it's going to end? What's going to come after that if it does? How many people will actually miss me? You think about the things you still want to do.

It was hell, and i hope i live a very long time before i ever have to worry about asking questions like that again. But it made me a better person, it got me more in touch with my emotions than ever, and it made me realize that life is very fragile. I get disgusted with people who don't appreciate the lives they have, because i've been to the edge, i've seen my own mortality. I've always had a unique outlook on death, death is the great comedy, because we mourn for people who die when we should be happy that they're in a better place with no evil. Death is easy, death to me is a right of passage, when you're time is due then you've obviously earned it and i wish you the best.

I'm rambling so i'll just finish by saying that we need to make a more conscious effort to accept what we cant change and learn to appreciate all the little things that make life what it is, we'll all be much happier people when that happens.

Goodnight.

NATGEO BABY!

I used to be subscribed to about... oh 10 different magazines up until about 3 years ago then i finally decided that there's enough information out there i don't really need 4000 magazines. But today National Geographic hit a home run with me in this subscription offer they sent in the mail, i could hardly contain myself.

Not only did they offer me a year of the magazine for $12 but they threw in a world map!

Hot damn! No more getting lost trying to find the Congo for this guy again, now i'll know exactly how to chart my way to the farthest reaches of the world and back again! With a cheap NatGeo mag i can afford to go big game hunting in Australia or even (dare i say it) SWIM THE GANGES...


Lots of possibilities abound for me thanks to the wonderful people of National Geographic, i can hardly contain my enthusiasm to read about the tribal people of the amazon, The AMAHUACA, and possibly visiting them without getting eaten by Giant Anacondas. Dodging the arrows of native skull hunters and blowing up the river boats of the local Cartels. I feel like Nathan Drake about to go on an adventure of a lifetime!

Yes, the only thing stopping me now is the enormous amount of debt i'm still in and my actual lack of knowledge of basic wilderness survival techniques. But give me just $24 worth of time and i'll obtain the knowledge and have at least two world maps and i'll be on my way!

For those of you who are jealous i challenge you to get your NatGeo world map and join me in imagining a new future...why the hell not!

7) Cold weather
8) Ignorance
9) Pleather furniture
10)People who think they're better than everyone else


Short lists, both could have had more but this should be good enough...

Jeff Dunham fans are idiots.

It's a simple fact that can't be disputed, if you like this ventriloquist performer you can't possibly have all the required brain cells to function like a normal human. Don't get me wrong, i love comedy, all kinds and very rarely do i find a form that i can't find hilarious no matter how offensive. But this man is awful, he's worse than Ellen DeGeneres on a drunken binder.

Lets take this a step further and actually break down one of his acts. He brings out various personalities like "peanut" and "achmed" and has conversations with them...OMG SO GROUND BREAKING! Normally ventriloquists merely give me a headache but after watching half of one of his acts i was actually looking for a fork to gouge my eyes out it was so awful. For some reason people eat this up, but if you look at EVERY SINGLE ventriloquist you'll find that they're all the same, and no matter what puppets they use the acts are all pretty similar.

I would like to have a Jeff Dunham DVD burning party but that would require people to actually go out and buy one of his dvd's and i just can't have that happening. You've gotta have the IQ of a Chimp to enjoy this crap, almost as bad as Dane Cook fans...and please don't get me started with that...


Jeff Dunham sucks, wake up morons.

It's a red light you asshole!

OMG nothing gets my chili running hotter than when that one prick is sitting in the left turn lane behind a car, and when the light turns red the dude who's in the middle of the turn lane goes, and this asshole tries to tailgate him to turn left. But oh no, he can't get far because the prick was sitting ten feet behind the white line not paying attention so then he holds up all the traffic that has a green light!

One of these days i'm gonna lose it and just drive out there and let the son of a bitch hit me...GRRR!!! If i were a cop i would be such an asshole, i would give tickets to everyone who did this and if they mouthed off i would throw their ass in jail!

Ah...i feel so much better now...

Thoughts on a Saturday night.

Just a posting of random thoughts that run through my head while i'm sober and awake on a boring saturday night.


"I wonder what she looks like naked."

"Is this salsa supposed to be sticking to my teeth?"

"Mike Leach is gonna be super rich."

"I have to be at work at 10 on a sunday...fml"

"I wonder what oven mitts were first made of?"

"This girl is crazy fun to talk to...hmmm."

"I feel like eating bananas but i'm not in the mood for the banana after taste."

"Should i shower now or in the morning?...decisions decisions!"

"Michigan State better win this damn game..."
