are you cool enough to be on my playlist?

haha i'm jk with that title. it's a thursday here on the plains. it's been a good week, j k livin. lil wayne came out with a new mixtape this week, "young moula baby." he has a song on there with bobby valentino called, "smile." this song was the first song that i listened to off of this cd. it was like 7 in the morning. if you know me, i'm still groggy at like 8:30. mornings and me don't get along, like LC and Heidi. hahaha. anyway, when the song came on, instantly started smiling. come to find out, that was the name. here is the song. if you are interested.
On another note, Real World/Road Rule's latest challenge is amazing. There are the usual suspects, with some great rookies stranded on an island. The US Army drops them supplies every few days. i don't know how legit the living conditions are, but they seem rugged. Everything has to be rationed, there is no plumbing or ac. I have enjoyed watching the show. These are crazy people interacting and you couldn't write this if you tried. I believe the best part is the "mob" that exists. Kenny, Johanna, Johnny, Dunbar, Paula, and Derrick run the whole island. They have enough people in their alliance and enough influence everywhere else to make people bow down. It's freaking awesome to watch. This is reality tv.

Ron Paul needs to be the next president. This bailout bill is bullshit. Let the people who are stupid learn a lesson. Ron Paul puts a grim outlook on America. I feel that Americans need to feel/see the grim output and put some people into fight or flight mode, and let a little savage human nature out. I'm not worried about the depression. If I have to kill my own food, that sounds like a cool as shit task to me. Sure would beat going to learn about economics and the whistleblower law. Listen how screwed up this is. If you are a whistleblower, you sell out your company for unethical practices; and you are eligible to receive 25% of the court awarded amount. This is true even if you were in on the unethical practice, and then you came clean.


I always hear people talking about America being so much like Rome. I haven't put much research into it to see if it's even a valid opinion, but I did form a connection. In Rome, they liked to watch the gladiators fight. Is the UFC the next gladiator arena? Check out this fight company's t-shirt. http://www.mmawarehouse.com/v/vspfiles/photos/aut-0014-2T.jpg

Think America is really that ticked at Iran? http://www.halliburtonwatch.org/shareholder2004.html

quote of the day...

"she's a cautious one, he observed. kiss her once, and she seemed to question it all. but allow her to lead, and the caution seemed to fade. he knew she was trying to figure him out, trying to match his story to the man she saw sitting across from her. but there was no mistaking the sympathy on her face the moment she realized how similar they were."- N. Sparks

go for the GOLD!!

Angels and Demons

I just finished this book. It is THE BEST book I have ever read. The majority of people who found out I was reading this book, immediately discredited it b/c it was "wacko," or "by Dan Brown." That sort of thing sure is sad. The book centers around a priest and his adopted daughter trying to uncover how science glorifies God. They create anti-matter. Which is exactly what it says, "anti-matter." They discover this b/c God created everything in opposites. For example, light and dark, summer and winter, male and female, etc. Turns out an old gang, find out about the anti-matter and try to blow up the Vatican during conclave. The book takes you on this scientific roller coaster through the four pillars of science in Rome: earth, air, fire, water. I'm glad I read the book b/c not only was it a good read, but it inspires a really cool trip to Rome. j k livin

bury my heart at wounded knee

pretty good movie. here are a couple quotes i really liked.


A vision came to me when the sun went into shadow, and I lay dying. And in my death, I saw the Heavens of the white robes. And yes, it is as they describe it. But also there, my children, all the Indians that ever roamed this earth, all your beloved ancestors, and mine, and those young ones who were taken by the white man's diseases. Do not grieve for them. They want you to know that they are happy. Yes. And you should not grieve for yourselves, because here is what the white robes did not tell you- the white man, my children, will soon be no more. Now you must not hate the white man. This will onlydelay his end. But if you will do the dance that I will teach you, all the ancestors will return. And the buffalo will be renewed. And you shall all live forever. Forever in the freedom that we as Indian people once knew. -wovoka

Charles Eastman: And now you speak of coercion. I don't understand.
Henry Dawes: If we don't put that land into the hands of individual Indians in five years- less-homesteaders and ranchers will demand it all... for nothing. The Indian must own his own piece of earth, Charles.
Charles Eastman: Did you know that there is no word in the Sioux language for that, sir?
Henry Dawes: For what?
Charles Eastman: To "own the earth." Not in any native language.
Henry Dawes: Well, then perhaps you should invent one.
