Well, I finally got my pal to shut up about his upcoming trip to the pit of the abyss. (By which I mean Baltimore.) He and his friend are going. Last year she got driven there but that didn't pan out this year. She needs to take the train. He has nothing better to do than be a tour guide. Poor, poor guy. |

I visited that friend of mine again today (see previous post) when his mom made some annoying comment: 'So, in 6 six months to a year they're going dancing-- and in about two weeks he's meeting her dad. Sounds serious." Then he got kinda pissed off and we went downstairs to watch cartoons. |

Okay, update on that friend. Word has leaked out amongst his friends. Words like 'sweet', 'gentlemanly', 'kind' and 'lucky bastard' have been thrown around. |

I have a friend. (Take that to mean what you will) who once had a crush on one of his friends. They eventually became extremely close friends... and the crush faded and he began to feel weird about ever having the crush in the first place. Anyway, he didn't get to see her much for a few years due to being away at school. Now he's back and he finds himself in a strange situation. They are both single. A mutual friend (one she used to kind of sort of date) is getting married. If her dance card is empty, he sort of told the mutual friend he'd be honored to do it. It is an awkward situation because seeing her again with the one year absence (and a bit of personal growth on his part) has maybe caused his line between which close friends are datable or not to blur. So it's double awkward. Awkward because she's his close friend. Awkward because she's a former crush and mild infatuation. I think he'd post this problem himself if the friends involved didn't read his own LJ. And lots of the people who are good for advice also read what few scant entries I post. Should he: a) Talk his way out of it. b) Go ahead and actually do it. Let what happens happen. c) Go ahead and actually do it, and flirt subtly. d) Screw subtle. e) other. Update: After finding out about what my friend's decision, a family member, has been pestering him about the whys. Is distorting the truth okay? |

1. Grab the nearest book. 2. Open the book to page 123. 3. Find the fifth sentence. 4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions, and if you like, the title of the book. 5. Don't search around and look for the coolest book you can find. Do what's actually next to you. 6. Tag 5 people to do this too. Q's Guide to the Continuum by Michael Jan Friedman and Bob Greenberger Kathy got rid of the pest just in time to watch her trash a perfectly good shuttle (Just how many do they have) - and achieve a bliss noncoporeal state of being. |

Being a voice inside ion_duck 's head charged with maintaining order and happiness, I knew I had a problem. House and Scrubs are going to be opposite each other for the rest of this year. Having to choose between Family Guy/American Dad and Law and Order: Criminal Intent is bad enough. This indignity is insufferable. I was originally planning on using his textbook money to buy one season of both of them but I couldn't afford to. So... I bought him just the Scrubs DVDs. Together they cost only $10 more than one season of House. And House's first season wasn't all that long.

Sorry for not posting lately. I have been in extremely deep cover exposing dark secrets that mankind was not meant to know. First off, the most dangerous threat to mankind since Gigili. I'm talking about motion sensor operated paper towel dispensers. All part of a plot by tow truck industry to make us forget how to use a crank. That way we will have no other choice but to call them when we have a flat tire or need to roll down windows on a car without power windows. Secondly, sources have told me that Deep Throat, the mysterious Watergate informant is none other than former Nixon loyalist and speech writer Ben Stein. |

My somewhat esteemed friend and I were watching TV the other day. Apparently the 9/11 commission has said there was no connection between Saddam Hussien and Osama Bin Ladin. President Bush said: "There is to! Saddam Hussien was once at a birthday party of King Hussein of Jordan. King Hussein was friends with Prince Abdullah of Saudi Arabia. Prince Abdullah's brother in-law supply money to Al-Queada." And thus was born the game... SIX DEGREES of Osama bin Ladin. |

Sometimes, in the events of man, events things happen that we cannot control. Events such as this... the extinction of Sasquatch. Hunters reported they killed the last bigfoot yesterday. As far as missing links are concerned, the truth is no longer out there. |

You have to worry....
You have to worry about Cap'n Crunch. I don't mean because it has far to much sugar than it should. Consider the facts about the Cap'n. 1) He's a sailor in some sort of 1800's naval organization. 2) Sailors spend most shore leave time doing naughty things. 3) Cap'n Crunch spends most of his shore leave time with little kids. Case Closed. |

It's a conspiracy
President Bush has secretly been mind controlled. (Not that he had much to control.) Sources claim that he stopped in the middle of a family football game to kidnap Roseanne when his father told him to catch that pigskin. In other news, Kazakhstanian officals deny that they are forming Toilken fan death cames. While they say they are rounding up fans and placing them in very small outdoor areas, simply for being over all to knitpicky about continuity errors in The Simillarian. |

The Real Conspiracy
The world's biggest conspiracy has been uncovered, at it involves women's swim wear. Every year the price for women's swimsuits go up, but they keep getting smaller. Unfortunately for them, I know their plan. They are trying to trick all the women into eventually paying $250 to skinny dip. |

RPG assassinations
According to the world's greatest economist, Lyndon H. LaRoushe Jnr, Hasbro/WoTC/TSR have lot of experience with creating brainwashed killing machines. Now, it appears they have turned these killing machines against gamers who don't buy their games. "I was brutally attacked," said some guy named Steve. More famous attempt hits include Neil Diamond, Doctor Demento, and the rebel Gary Gygax. Fanfiction readers might be interested in knowing that one of their own, one Jess Willey, is under observation for GMing a diceless, character sheetless, RPG that has over six billion participants worldwide. The game has been in consecutive play for over one million years, and has risen in popularity since Jesse took over. "I met the last GM, a guy named Yajweh. He was very ill and died... he made me god," Willey said. |

Alien Abduction
Confirmation of some alien abduction stories from the early 80's has finally come out. Here are what some witnesses have to say. "When I was a kid, I took a space alien home without it's parents knowledge," says Elliot, who is now a radio astronomer. "He was here for several weeks. I get the feeling that his parents really hate me. He hasn't come to visit since. I should never have let him phone home." Another case lasted for several years. "He was.... a very rude house guest. We've all tried to forget him," said one unidentified man, who now works on the show 'Norm'. |
