hello.
if you know about the star wars kid, you must read this cnn article: http://www.cnn.com/2003/TECH/internet/08/21/starwars.kid.ap/index.html
"Others have started a petition to get him into the next "Star Wars" movie, which Lucasfilm Ltd. is currently filming in Australia.
A spokeswoman at the California-based film company would not say whether filmmaker George Lucas is considering the request."
a while ago i was talking about this with dudo, and how hilarious it would be if he was in it. maybe as annakin's short lived, fat, nerdy sith apprentice.
if you haven't seen the star wars kid, shame on you. and click here.
anyways, i feel sorry for this kid.
also, in the last blog, i mentioned that i got a fortune from a fortune cookie that says: "You will be invited to a small gathering with lots of spicy conversation." so there will be a lot of pressure on everyone the next time i'm invited to a small gathering. i'm thinking there are only 3 topics for which there can be spicy conversation:
1. sex
2. hot peppers
3. sex involving hot peppers
eh? eh?

i wish i had a little red box to put my best friends in.
i'd take them out...and.. put them back again.
it's officially time to start worrying about kerry wood. i think dudo has a voodoo doll of him and stuck a needle in his back so he can win this year's dudo league title... not that it makes a difference. this is not good for the cubs.
also, i've realized that i've taken mark prior for granted. here are his numbers in his 4 starts since coming back from his injury: 31 IP, 2 runs, 3 BBs, 29 Ks, (0.58 ERA). usually i will reserve judgement on a rookie or 2nd year pitcher that has been doing good, because their success could be because the league hasn't seen them enough yet. i wasn't convinced wood would be a stud his rookie year, even after his 20 K game. i guess he isn't a stud anyways. but i'm convinced prior will be one of the best pitchers in baseball. watching him pitch, it's hard to believe he's only 23 years old.
oh yeah, so i went to eat at some asian buffet place and got a fortune cookie. here's what the fortune was:
"You will be invited to a small gathering with lots of spicy conversation."
i wish other people were there that would've appreciated the hilariousness of the fortune. i showed b, and she just furrowed her brow and said "so?". anyways, i still have it, i should put it in a huge frame and hang it up.
i gotta rage, yo.

hello.
sorry to tm, since i couldn't join in tm weekend cause of work, but at least i got a couple days to hang.
ah, a nice insane day at work monday. most of the time its boring, but when the shit hits the fan, its nuts. but now i get days off, yay.
i think about this sometimes: what does it mean to be emotional? anyways, most people would say people that show emotions are emotional. someone who cries a lot, someone who always yells at people, someone who sulks a lot. but just because you show a lot of emotion doesn't mean you are more emotional than someone who doesn't. say two people each get kicked in the nuts by Mr. Nutz. let's say person #1 feels 60 angry points. so then he kicks Mr. Nutz in the nuts, displaying his 60 angry points. and person #2 feels 100 angry points, but he walks away, showing 0 angry points. so who is more emotional, the guy who shows his emotion, or the guy who feels more emotion? well, to anyone looking on, of course person #1 is more emotional, because person #2 just walked away like a pansy. but if you could see into their minds, person #2 is more emotional. well i guess it don't matter, it's all semantics anyways.
(i'm person #2)
well, i was just using getting kicked in the nuts as an example, but if that really happened, i'd probably proceed to beat that guy silly, as you will see explained below.
no one would probably guess it, but i am a pretty intense person. i pretty much have a steady exterior most of the time. a lot of people have said that i'm "chill". but a lot of times i get some extreme feelings. most people will never see me display them, though, because i'm good at keeping it in. the most i'll probably show is annoyance. and if i seem annoyed, it's because im pissed. if i seem pissed, im close to throwing something or punching someone. i've never ever shown how nuts i can be to anyone except b, or when i'm by myself. other than b, only my parents have a hint of how i can get. so if you see me picking up a chair, like i'm gonna throw it at you, congratulations, you've become very close to me. haha. also, some of you know that i'm a pretty obsessive person. if i let myself stay angry at something, i keep thinking about it, and it just pisses me off more, so i usually try to put things out of my mind. so anyways, there's probably a fine line between "calm me" and "murderous rage me", although the bar is set pretty high for that, although the bar is lowered in certain situations. i wish i had visio so i can draw cool graphs with angry faces like dudo can. anyways, just something that i was thinking about before.

hello.
so i was watching the cubs game yesterday and i remembered that ozzie and sharon were gonna sing the 7th inning stretch. i knew it would be entertaining, but i had no idea it would turn out as one of the most hilarious things ever. the stunned looks on the faces of players in the dugout were hilarious. and then the sportscenter real lyrics vs. ozzie's lyrics was one of the funniest things ever.
aand, the cubs got randall simon (sausage beater). this is truly turning into a magical season.
laters, gotta work.
