SUPERNATURAL

Roaming the lush green farmland
Rolling thunderheads looming above
The sky in state of anger
Fighting lizards battle; infuriate
Offspring continuing death cycle
Cat skinned of all reason
The soul is cheap
Bargain rates at their lowest
A sweeping hero from a Western
Sadfully happy
See through the glasses of light
An angel descends
Everything is deemed dumb
El Topo digs through the barriers
Flamingos cluttering the front yard with banter
The cannibals will sweep them away
Holocaust cleansing the dirt
Murder screaming loud
Genocide of he who is mouthy
Druggy sluggy puggy fuggy juggy huggy
Raven screeches, piercing the night
Mist flowing over the bends
Road trip = WARNING!
Yellow = Caution when cautioned
Sight unseen when seen in the scene but never does
Freakazoid over every humanoid
Angerize me unto an action
For all those depressed Walmart shoppers...

PHILOSOPHY

I once had flashback to a lonely time
My inner cosmos devoured by black holes
A character in a Shakespearean tragedy
The people's joker with multicolored balloons
Life was dissected, joys and wonders stripped away
Omniscient wizard disenchanted by uncertain futures
Plataeus were caked with blood and snow
Takere Civilization seized all my intangibles
Leavers too small to save them and me
The quieter you become, the less you hear
A whining noise commandeered my voice
Blackened talons clawed out my heart
I prepped my comatose bed
Lustful vampires drained my essence
Cats attempted to screech and scratch me awake
But none could reach my dreary plain of isolation
Skin was tanned dark by the nagging sun
Hair burnt away, always reminding
Emotions were neutered
Leaving my conscious self speechless
Mockings of a sad clown didn't help
Laughing myself senseless and numb
A neverending betrayal
But the mind's doubtful smoke cleared
My soul not as black as one thought
Deceit not as rampant as one thought
Reformation of the pride to willfully exist
That past superstition revealed in virtuous light
Pillars are left cheering
As she reignited the supernova of love within me

I don't really feel like ranting and recalling past events, because right now I'm feeling a little lazy. Instead, I found this Dante's Inferno test. Oddly, it says I am very violent, which is rather odd, because I'm not really violent. But anyways, here are the results. I've also included the song lyrics to my song of the moment, which I might make a regular thing. Enjoy!

Vow

I can't use what I can't abuse
And I can't stop when it comes to you
You burned me out but I'm back at your door
Like Joan of Arc coming back for more

I nearly died
I nearly died
I nearly died

I came to cut you up
I came to knock you down
I came around to tear your little world apart

I came to shut you up
I came to drag you down
I came around to tear your little world apart
And break your soul apart

You burn and burn to get under my skin
You've gone too far, now I won't give in
You crucified me but I'm back in your bed
Like Jesus Christ coming back from the dead

I nearly died
I nearly died
I nearly died

I came to knock you up
I came to cut you down
I came around to tear your little world apart
I came to rip you up
I came to shut you down
I came around to tear your little world apart
And break your soul apart

I nearly died
I nearly died
I nearly died

I came to cut you up
I came to knock you down
I came around to tear your little world apart
I came to shut you down
I came around to tear your little world apart
Tear your little world apart
Tear your little world apart
And break your soul apart

I can't stop when it comes to you
I can't stop when it comes to you
When it comes to you
When it comes to you

Hey hey, it's update time! Woooo, extreme! Yeah, so anyways, some interesting things have happened over the past few days. I guess I'll start with today and kind of backtrack. I got 2 hours of sleep, always fun, because I didn't fall asleep until almost 9 this morning. My dad woke me up to tell me about the helicopter crash near-by, because I need to be woken to know about that. So I'm about to go back in my room and pass out when my sister calls from school. Her car won't start because her battery is dead. So I have to throw some clothes on and go with my dad to go help her. I looked like such a bum, my hair wasn't gelled and I've been letting my 5 o'clock shadow turn into a 72 hour shadow. So we got that whole thing fixed up and came home, allowing me to finish what I was doing before I left: Passing out.

Some hours pass, my dad wakes me up and says we are going somewhere. We ended up going to a circus. It actually wasn't bad. I felt bad for the animals, especially after seeing all those behind the scenes investigations of circus practices and training. However, there were clowns, and that was funny. We convinced my mom that they were all fired on the spot because they broke a radio. We said they were promising revenge at the next show. Seriously, why does anyone still bother to believe what Kyle and I say anymore, moreso for Kyle? First, we convinced Kelly that Esmel doesn't speak English and that he's too lazy to learn it. Kelly thought it was kind of a lie because Kyle and Esmel were laughing and everything, but I got Kelly to believe it again by giving her some truthful credible evidence. And then this thing with my mom. I just love how the two of us can tell a story and make it sound so true. It's a true gift to have, being able to bullshit and what not. There should be a superhero.

Is it a truth?

Is it a law?

Is it a commandment?

Hells no!

It's Captain Bullshit!

To air on Fox this fall after the Unfuckables, starring Dave Attell!!!

Anyways...

Hey, I'm actually writing a little bit everyday, which I've never been able to do. Yay, go me! I've been revising my novel, Basilisk II - Paranoia. I've even been reading too, a book I borrowed a couple years ago, called Monkey. It inspired the Dragonball series and it's goofy and funny as hell. A must read! I'm only on page 40 something of 300 something, but hey, if just that little was good, the rest must be platinum goodness chickababies!

I also watched a movie I downloaded. I have like 20 of them, but I've only watched a couple so far. And yet, I keep downloading them. But yeah, I watched
The Crow - Wicked Prayer. It actually wasn't that bad. David Boreanaz was awesome as the psycho villain. It was like watching Angelus, only this time time he got to drop some F-Bombs, fuckin hells yeah! But Edward Furlong as the Crow? Who the fuck came up with that shit idea?! I mean, don't get me wrong. He's a great actor and he was awesome in American History X. He even nails the emotional parts of the Crow. But he looks like a chick when he dons the Crow white make-up! That's not menacing at all. It explains why the goons don't really freak out when they first see him, like the Chinese western cop who was gradually dying on the inside from toxic waste poisoning. Seriously, they should have just cloned Boreanaz and made him BOTH the villain and hero, since he can pull both of them off with ease.

POR QUE!!!

Well, time to wrap up this xanga with the best news I have. So last Saturday I went to my friend Victoria's house to celebrate her b-day. We went to the Field Museum and goofed around, nothing insane. As it neared time to leave, we notice they're setting up a banquet of sorts in the main hall. All of a sudden, my friend says he spotted a certain comedic actor. He runs off and comes back, saying he shook his hand and what not, but the actor was not doing pictures or autographs. So we start looking around for him and end up back in the main hall. I'm standing across from my friends just glancing around and turn around just in time to see this actor several feet away from me. Who was this actor you ask?

Vince Vaughn...and yes, this fucker is tall as hell!

He walks right past me and my friends start freaking out, so we follow him upstairs and into a gem exhibit. I wait outside knowing that he is about to come back out, and sure enough, he walks past me again. My friends end up stalking, um er, following him and shaking hands with him. I decided not to shake his hand, since I could tell he didn't really want to be bothered. He even told my one friend who spotted him earlier that he just wanted a peaceful day. Plus I guess they were going to shoot a banquet hall scene for that new comedy he's doing with Jennifer Anniston.

So that's all I have for now, and I'll end this the way I've been ending talks with alot of people...

VINCE VAUGHN!!!

Well, I actually did some productive things today, yay!!!

First, my interesting day. I went to the dentist and found out I need all my wisdom teeth pulled out, so I have to go to an oral surgeon.

(Peter Griffin laugh)

Oral.

Anywho, I hope to have the surgery done before school, because I'm going to be hocked up on Vicodin or some kind of pain killers. I'm going to be all loopy and shit. It's going to be extreme.

Z-XTREME!!!

So yeah, I actually sat down and sent in some manuscripts today. It's about damn time! The Writer's Market book came in handy after all. And for a second there, I thought I had wasted $30. I sent in Overcome and Dirty Frank, two of my best works, so I'm excited and anxious about the replies.

I saw War of the Worlds yesterday, and I must say that it was very kick ass and emotional. Except for the ending. Don't get me wrong, it made sense and everything. And I don't really see another way they could have done that ending expository, or maybe I can? Whatever, point is, the whole movie kicked major ass while the last 30 seconds were a little out of place. Maybe they should have stuck to the original ending which had the aliens die from the common cold.

"Oh no, the aliens are taking over!! What should we do?"

"I'm about to sneeze!"

"Dammit man, this is no time to sneeze! You're about to die! Have a quickie sex session or smoke a blunt, not just sneeze!"

ACHOO!!!

(Alien ships begin falling out of the sky like flies)

"Gasp, sweet Odin's raven! The aliens died when you sneezed! Quick Mr. President, unleash the Kraken! And after we kill it off in the name of Zeus, we will unleash the pepper bombs and feather bombs. It will be a mass sneezeacide on the enemy alien force!"

ATTACK IN THE NAME OF ACHOOACHOOACHOOACHOOACHOOACHOO!!!

But even this amazing plot line cannot compare to the Great Spill of July 18, 2005. It was on this tragic day that my King size cup of Dr. Pepper, newly refilled for free to the top, was tipped and spilt all over the car carpet and my feet. But we must stand united and strong through all this pain and devastation. And now to lead us in a prayer service, is none other than Latoyah Jackson.

Um, rub-a-dub-dub! Thanks for the grub! YAY GOD!!!

ACHOO!

SHE'S DEAD!
