We often call the same thing by different names (pronunciations):
Potatoe/ Potato,
Tomatoe / Tomato,
Internets / Tubes / Interwebs
I've gotten looks of puzzlement from people whenever I refer to the internet as "the tubes." So making an entry seemed like a good way of edumacating™ people. Keeping my audience in mind I figured, why have people read about the tubes, when a techno remix is just as effective?
I guess sometimes I forget that most people don't keep up with randomly amusing things that happen in congress - particularly when it came to Ted Stevens. While I'll miss his antics, I think I can live without them if it means he's out of congress (and in jail):

I didn't realize it was lent!
Found out by looking at some stuff on a posterboard on campus... guess I'll be getting my ash on later today Read More...
Lover (in red)
Took a nap (thanks for the wake up call Chris!) and I actually feel good and productive at this hour. Lots of work to do... so I'll probably be posting a bit more today, haha.
I'll justify them as constructive breaks, or something to that effect.

Photo-Shop
Hadn't watched SNL in a while, but if they keep putting out stuff like this they'll have me back. I believe in 2nd chances. And big butts :P
As you can probably tell, I recently re-discovered hulu and I have to say their selection's pretty good... perhaps I should curb my tv watching online.
And offline.

Diplomatic Shark
I woke up today and found this website in one of my tabs.
I've been trying to figure it out, but I have no idea how or why it got there.
But I'm entertained.
I'm beginning to think Chris is may be right. I might have too much time... or I'm just easily distracted, but there's nothing new about my short attention span.

interns (sfw?)
This is one of the funniest (new) things I've seen in a while.
Episode Four - Hare Today, Gone Tomorrow
I actually don't know how new it is, but it's new to me.
I think it's sfw...
v-day
Do people really do things like these?

14. Giving you ghastly mall-rat jewelry that you saw on his sister the week before.
15. Doing the deed with you, then crying afterward because his ex-girlfriend Mandy broke up with him last Valentine's Day.
If so, I've been giving people (fellow men) a lot more credit than they deserved.
Makes me feel like one of those banks, you know?
The ones making bad loans. Read More...

Like you'll never see me again
It may be cliché, but it usually takes something drastic for us to change.
Today, one of my friends died. Just like that.
He was running a half marathon and sometime near the end, his heart gave out.
It's also cliché to say (or pretend) that you're living life to the fullest or like it's the last day of your life when you actually expect to have another day to continue. Another day to finish what you started. Another day to tell someone you love them for the first time, or remind someone that you do. We need to do it at least every now and then.
[Alicia Keys - Like you'll never see me again.]
If I had no more time
No more time left to be here
Would you cherish what we had?
Was it everything that you were looking for?
If I couldn't feel your touch
And no longer were you with me
I'd be wishing you were here
To be everything that I'd be looking for
I don't wanna forget the present is a gift
And I don't wanna take for granted the time you may have here with me
'Cause Lord only knows another day is not really guaranteed
So every time you hold me
Hold me like this is the last time
Every time you kiss me
Kiss me like you'll never see me again
Every time you touch me
Touch me like this is the last time
Promise that you'll love me
Love me like you'll never see me again

quotes + change
cleaning up my profile, I'm posting my old quotes. It feels like an appropriate time to do some re-adjusting, re-evaluating, re-tweaking.
"There is certainly no absolute standard of beauty. That precisely is what makes its pursuit so interesting.
- I just called my dad (in Pakistan) and after the election, no more death to America!
- Everyone shut up! I'm calling CNN
- I thought all your parties were drunken orgies
- They can't all be perfect
Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not.
- My family did not escape communist China so that I would end up living in a quad
I have the gift of neither the spoken nor the written word, especially if I have to say something about myself or my work... Whoever wants to know something about me - as an artist, the only notable thing - ought to look carefully at my pictures and try and see in them what I am and what I want to do.
Music is your own experience, your thoughts, your wisdom. If you don't live it, it won't come out of your horn.
Cuando deseas algo con todo el corazón, todo el Universo conspira para que realices tu deseo.
-- Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist"
