Thoughts not to be confused w/what you think I should be thinking
04.23.07 (7:07 am)   [edit]



People who declaw cats should be declawed.

Or defingered.

People who abandon animals should be abandoned. If there's something salvageable in their souls, they'll be rescued by someone like me, as opposed to animal 'control.'

People who own guns for fun have become unhinged somewhere along the way, despite how sane they are absolutely sure they are.

People who think guns are the answer to self-defense are as much idiots as people who own them for more 'aggressive' reasons. It's all the same color in the wash.

Television is destroying us. Even the smart or moderate viewer. I'm afraid there's no such thing. We are a society unable to regulate with insight. In fact, we've become too big to be regulated at all. We swallowed the hook on technology and are being dragged effortlessly to the promise land that only exists in our heads. Our government sold us the idea that technology would make our lives easier. All it has done is speed things up.

But don't get too caught up in that tv is bad talk, surely I'm not talking about you. It's always a problem 'out there' that needs to be solved.

Living in a communal setting in Texas is a disappointing experience. The pervasive selfishness that drives most decisions by most people create an unsatisfactory living arrangement. No wonder I'm looking for a couple of acres outside the city.

Maybe I'm going to become antisocial in my older age. Meh.

People online are full of bravado, yet most folks seem so spineless in person. Where are all these big talkers in real life? A couple of them may be holed up in their boxed in lives, waiting for a moment to act out their frustrations. But most of them are just.. insincere.

I've got a good story that happened the other day.. speaking of false bravado and insincerity.. but I think I'll save it for a different forum - one that doesn't make my lip curl.

They were negative thoughts.

But they were sincere.

Altoids and Torontos.
04.11.07 (12:22 pm)   [edit]




Scene: Car, heading to school.

12 year old: La la la, la la la la, laaaaaaaa

Mom: Is that your new song for choir? Why are you singing so softly?

12 year old: Because we're supposed to. The altoids sing softly in this song.

11 year old: And then the torontos join in and sing softly too.

Mom: The what?

11 year old: The torontos sing softly with the altoids.

Mom: Altoids. And Torontos.

12 year old: Yeah.

Mom: Got it.



Two minutes later, mom bursts out laughing, much to the amazement and puzzlement of the 11 and 12 year olds. How wrong is it to let them go through life like this?

People drive Cheeverlets. They fly helihocters and drive myrtlecycles.

Animals are taken to the Dog sockety according to the 11 year old and the Human Security, according to the 12 year old.

Surely, altoids and torontos can't be all that bad...
