Superstruct : Well, I added a tag board. Use it. If it's abused I'm removing it though.

I don't control what's posted on it, and it doesn't necessarily reflect my opinions, though it might. It's possible, but it still officially won't. But that doesn't mean if it matches my opinion I automatically change my opinion so it's no longer upon the tagboard.

I'm going to do a post covering Fri, Sat, Sun at some point. I was on Vancouver Island. Blah blah blah, whatever, I should be doing something else.


--Edit : Crap, it's stuck at the bottom.. I'll figure it out, then it'll head over to the right.

Carouse : Baldwin our local scary triad. Is the subject of most of todays photography. I wanted to take a picture of him holding up his cake grinning like an idiot, but he wouldn't. He also refused to dance for me. So I forced Ian to get funky instead. Such is my power.

I was playing with my cameras video capabailities, and I must say "I'm very impressed". I'm very impressed. Now that that's covered, I took a clip of Ian dancing, and one of Baldwin wandering around with a cake in one hand.


Ladies interested in Ians sexy dancing skills, he'll be at the Halloween dance at Steveston tonight dressed as a ninja/pirate/santa claus. Go Packers! Packers with pride! Why the hell are we called Packers? "Trojans" even gets jokes, but Packers? Why even make fun of it, it manages it itself. Our mascot is a friggin' boat. With an angry face on it!

I'll get you a picture of "Boatman" at some point. I'll probably push him over after the picture too.

A note for those who can't view the videos. Go get DivX or something. That should fix it. If not, too bad, they work for me. I'm deaf to your pleas.

Phantasm : It's officially Halloween time. I carved some pumpkins, more on that in a later post, along with more pumpkins being carved. I also put up the lights/graves. Halloween will also get a seperate post, likely the same post as the pumpkins...


I was forced to wear a tie today, everyone told me I did it right. I had just guessed what I was doing, I made a knot up. Then my dad came along and told me I did it wrong. I now know how to do the windsor knot, no more looking stupid to people who know how to work ties for me!


Today was my first driving lesson with the school, the guy asked how often I'd driven "Once for about an hour" I replied. He made me show him around a residential area and then went "Okay, you're good for a main road." We went down No. 2 rd (big road for my non-local readers) on my first time really driving on a road. I was a little suprised he decided that, but I figure he knows what he's doing. Right up until I ran over the kid. The old lady and the dog had been flukes I'd thought, but the kid? I suppose it could have been his fault for not getting out of the way.

Naww, in all honesty I did pretty good. His evaluation ranged from "perrrfect" to "perfy". It was rather fun to drive around with a guy telling me where to go, and making me do only left turns on a busy road.

I'm not sure if that was supposed to be complaining or not. You figure it out you lazy bum!

Dilatory : The post you've all been waiting for! I know, I postpone everything (see: Slacking). Let's get down to business... What do I owe you? A long arduous post you say? A website update you say? Jack squat I reply! Luckily, I'm nice, sort of, so you do get something. Maybe even more things.

Well, my birthday was one week ago today, and I've finally worked through the deep scars it left. All none of them, it did suck though. No denying that. First off, I wasn't allowed to do anything, because my parents invited over people I don't know to celebrate my birthday! Old people! Watching Soccer! Half of whom not knowing it's my birthday! Nice try parents, I'm not a retard. Hell, they even made me cook and get drinks for their guests. Later on (5pm or so, they arrived at 11am) when the guests had left, I went to Futureshop and picked up a set of wireless headphones, they're wonderful. Dancing around the house listening to music ensued. I can do yard work, like planting graves (Halloween!), with my music! It's brilliant.

Later still I went to Matchstick Men with Aaron. I liked it. It was kind of a sleepy story, but I liked the twist, and the way it was done was interesting. I don't really want to reveal much, so I want. If you're into action, go see The Rundown instead. For once The Rock (whatever his name may be) isn't doing a role in the fashion of "THE ROCK IS THE SCORPION KING!" he actually plays a role, and does so well. Also, Arnold Schwarzenegger is in it. Always a plus, especially in my books. No stupid Terminator reference either! If you put Arnie against uhh.. Rock guy, I bet Arnie would not only kick his ass, but not even grimace, he'd keep his jaw clenched the entire time!


RIAA isn't too bright is it?

"The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) called Sharman's 'newfound admiration for the importance of copyright law' ironic and 'self-serving.'"

Hahahaha, imagine that, when Kazaa turns the tables on them they raise their chins and call it dirty fighting. They sue the file sharers, who are usually just not experienced enough to know how to move the files to another directory, claiming they're distributing illegal music. They don't even know what they're doing! If you want to target the root of the problem, why don't you track down the people who originally ripped the music?

What about people you're not losing money from in any way? Like me, I use an MD player, I wouldn't buy CD's anyway. Most of what I download I certainly wouldn't pay for at that.

How about this for a way to sue people

+ How many songs they're sharing
- Amount of songs they own on CD
- What they wouldn't buy anyway
- What they've paid into anti-copyright levies (on CD's and other mediums)
- What they can listen to on the radio
- What's in commercials, or in any other way publicly played (MTV and MUCH for example)

Take this result, and multiply it by... What's fair? $1 a song? How much do CD's cost anyway? So what do they owe now? $40? That's what you would have gotten out of them. If I turn my radio up too loud and my parents hear it, do I owe you $150k US?

I don't really overly care anyway, I'm Canadian, I'm allowed to download all the copyright material as "private copies". I just can't burn CD's of it for my friends. I still pay you American jackasses levies though, thanks. Jerks.


In the near future (Nov 6-10) I'm going to Kentucky for a fencing worldcup. Yeah, I'm that good. We (Katy and I) plan to hog tie a certain fellow, and stuff him in a closet. We also plan an airsoft war, and a lot of things involving shaving cream (not limited to shaving either).


Meet plant. It lives in my room on top of my book shelf. Isn't it pathetic? It's barely alive. Hopefully it will die soon, and can be replaced with something more impressive. Possibly shiny.


I found my two zippos earlier today. The world is far less safe. Yes, one silver, and one gold. One for slaying vampires and other lycanthropes, one to distract "gangsta" folk while I beat their idiotic soft heads in with my fists.

That should tide over you cacophonous masses for a while. It's getting late, I ought to go to bed. Oh, it's 7:15am, right then. Never mind. I guess I'm not sleeping today.

So I lied : too bad. I'm a busy person. I DO plan to update, I really do...

Ah ha! : Ian, in the library, with the warhammer.

I've finally figured out who killed Mr. Body, where, and what with!

This doesn't count as a post, it's just me playing with my new camera.

Don't worry, I plan to make a real post today, lots of new stuff...

Birthday Report
Matchstick Men review
Mocking of something
Upcoming events
Probably more mocking, possibly of the same thing...

Lots to look forward to!

Redundancy : I'm still alive, and it's my birthday. Where's my cake? This blog has taken a very very back seat to my life. Young Drivers of BC called, they wanted to give me lesons waay later than I wanted them. I yelled at them for a while, and lied, saying I won't be available ever again after Dec. 3, so I have to have my license by then (it worked). I will be done the course mid to late November... I have many other exploits, but I forget what they all are.

The blog was supposed to help me remember that sort of thing, but then I stopped updating it...

Don't worry, the funny will come back eventually.. I'm just not very inspired right now. I need to see a bunch of nuns on fire or something. I suppose until something of that sort happens (Come on, just one plane crashing into History class and killing everyone on the other side, is that too much to ask? It's my birthday), expect some crappy boring journal like posts. Probably funnier than any of the drivel you spew though. You don't have a group of dedicated readers who check your site every day for updates, knowing full well they'll never come, do you?

That's what I thought.

I'm getting a cool mini-camera for my birthday. It can beat up a camera up to four times its size.

A very special post : I haven't really had much to post about recently, so I've settled on telling you all of my one true love. Voles. Truly the mightiest of all of gods creations. They can kill with a thought, and outrun the fastest of automobiles.

They're also rather cute. Voles hold a very special place in my heart.

Although, I don't like them as much as I do hedgehogs, or double pepperoni pizza.

So one true love isn't really the most accurate description...

Priorities : Well, it's just shy of 4am, and I haven't updated in 4 days. I've been staying up as late as always, 3-4am. But I'm usually talking to people more interesting than the lack of response this blog gives me. So, to hell with you reader. I'm talking to the cool person!

Besides, it's been a boring week.

My birthday is in 6 days, on the 12th. You better have got me something nice!

Well, I guess you people deserve content of SOME form. Look I'm a model. That should be enough. Want more? Frankly I don't care.


Also, those of you who are asking me to do Maddox style stuff, bugger off. I'm not doing anything on request unless I want to. But if you wait for me to update (ha, like that's going to happen) I'll start posting some articles of a possibly amusing nature under a section of the site for that purpose.

Proclamation : Let this grand revelation go forth across the lands. Double pepperoni is the grandest creation in all my design. Long have I known this, and those who have feasted upon the result of my machinations were also aware of it.

Next you order from Dominos (and only Dominos, it doesn't work with other pizza companies) order a double pepperoni pizza. As your meal is masticated by your slavering maw, realizing the brilliance of it, know that you must pass on this message. The un-initiated must know! Always order double pepperoni when you are with a group, tell them to do same. Eventually everyone will eat only double pepperoni. When this becomes a reality my work shall be done.

I've never encountered anyone who likes pepperoni, who didn't like double pepperoni better. Every single time I've ordered it with others around, it became the pizza they always order. They report the same occurs with their friends. It's almost as if I've formed a religion all of my own, to feed, and to pet, and to walk, and to take care of...
