I didn’t buy the first one, I think they are ridiculously expensive. But I do think this one is way sexy.

Overheard Conversation…

with one comment

.. at the reception desk at work as I walked by. Names have been changed to protect the filthy.

Linda: … said she wouldn’t be able to get in. She’s in a lot of pain with her eye. She got splashed, it’s hurting, splashed this morning with some… she got… in it… (tries to think of the word, has a mind blank, gestures to her eye)
Susan: (cocking her head and making a sympathetic face) Cum?
Linda: Shampoo

I walked a little faster at this point.

Stats. Or Lack Thereof.

I thought my stats were beginning to climb. Turns out the scale (on the left) is just getting smaller!

2012

without comments

From wikipedia
“2012 is predicted by some with New Age beliefs to be a great year of spiritual transformation (or alternatively an apocalypse). There is disagreement among believers whether 2012 will see an end of civilization, or humanity will be elevated to a higher level.
Many esoteric sources[who?] interpret the completion of the thirteenth B’ak’tun cycle in the Long Count of the Maya calendar (which occurs on December 21 by the most widely held correlation) to mean there will be a major change in world order.”

So, my birthday 2012 should be a doozie. Another reason the Maya calendar (and others) may only run to 2012 may be that in that year, the very nature of time itself could be altered. By, for example, the discovery of a way for humans to travel through time itself, thus rendering the notion of a calendar al but useless.

I LOVE THIS!

Edit to add: Is it me or does the crocodile look kind of sinister in the freeze-frame?

1and1 Hosting sucks ASS!!

with 2 comments

I am now fifteen minutes (this time, since starting this site I have probably lost hours of my life watching this piece of shit time-out) just trying to connect to their ftp server to upload two tiny files. They offer the worst most unreliable slow web-hosting i have EVER had to work with!

1and1_suck

How in the name of all that’s holy they are still operating is beyond me to understand.

If I Can’t Have You

with 2 comments

I always had a small thing for Yvonne Elliman. She’s plumped up as the years have gone by (She’s hawiian, dontcha know) and looks pretty cute in my own flesh-loving opinion.

Also, this is one of my fav BeeGees songs. (PS, I was actually looking for her old song Happy Ending, which is the only available Jim Steinman song I don’t have. If anyone has it…!)

Mika’s Gay But Beautiful Happy Ending

without comments

Ok so this song is v gay but I totally love it. I’m not posting the video for the single cause A: it’s terrible and B: they rearrange the song to make it more charty and it sucks.

I think these lyrics are really beautiful.
