Another loss to be mourned
Not to make light of the tsunami, it’s a horrible horrible thing. 80,000 people and it’s definately going to go up. I can’t even imagine such a thing.
But there is one loss today that saddend me to no end on a personal level. Brisco from law and order bought it. Not from a bullet from a perp, but the bain of all men.
Orbach died of prostate cancer Tuesday night, a spokesman for the program confirmed Wednesday.The actor had been undergoing treatment for his illness for several weeks, Audrey Davis of the public relations agency Lippin Group told The Associated Press.
Jerome Bernard Orbach was born in Bronx, New York, on October 20, 1935, the son of a vaudeville actor and a radio singer. The family moved around during his childhood, finally settling near Chicago.
He attended the University of Illinois and Northwestern University and then returned to New York to begin his acting career.
He earned his broadest fame relatively late in life, but couldn’t have asked for more, he said.
So here we are old friend, you have reached the other side. During the past 6 months you have kept me entertained with your antics. God bless you and god speed my friend.
And for you, you get the honor of dead rock star Jerry.
Oh really sure sign me up
Some changes are a coming in this year for the site, I already gathered all the info I need to rebuild and make an actual radio station (coming soon whenever)
I decided that I need to find a good free piece of software so I can blog directly from my desktop. So as I was looking I found…
How to blog for fun and profit This guy promises that we can make money from it.
Hey cool great, paid for sitting on my ass and discussing why I hate Halo 2 and bitch about why women won’t date me. Sign me up doc, sounds like a great idea seriously. After all surely if I get paid for it, everyone on the internet with basic motor functions and an opinion can make a few extra bucks.
My question is to you bloggy blog dude is how much are these idiots making for talking about their dumb ass cats, why japan rules, why their parents suck for not getting them a bentley, and constant complaining about the opression that cosplayers go through? Can you explain it to me please, because everytime I stumble on to one of their blogs my eyes bleed.
I know you’re reading this too buddy, so don’t act all innocent. Tell me!!!
While you’re at it tell me why do people need a blogging 101 course? I’ll cut it down to a sentence for you, open blog, think like Corky with a god complex, type!!! Wha la you have a blog.

It’s not quite single life, not quite music…
It’s not a conversation either, hard to place this one. But I did put up a post on Craigslist about this one
General question to the people - m4w - 27Reply to: anon-53628038@craigslist.org
Date: 2004-12-28, 2:27AM ESTSup craigslist people.
I was talking to an old friend of mine and we were talking about the virtues of music of when we were growing up, and what is missing in romance these days compared to high school. We decided it’s the mix tape.
Mixed CDs don’t have the same cachet as a mixed tape; the smell is different for starters. The tape feels like something with weight, maybe it’s the effort that is put into one. After all if you remember the mix tape, you’ll remember that if you screw up, you probably had to remake the whole thing over again.
So if I can ask two separate questions from the men and women here. If someone made you a mix tape (an actual tape), compared to a CD which one would you prefer? Secondly, if there was some sort of singles mixer that involved mixed tapes like a trade or a lock and key thing? Like if you listen to one tape and you liked it you can meet the guy (or girl) would you attend provided you would have to bring a mixed tape of your own?
I’m just curious because I think it’s a really good idea for a party or something.
Thanks all and have a good new year.
If you have any thoughts, put it in the comments. Or email the address above.

Single Life Vol. 4 Chapter 18. Shut it and put out
siRiotGrrl (1:15:10 AM): hey, can i send you somethign i found on one of the message boards i go to?
AntizeroM (1:15:32 AM): sure as long as i dont have to sign up
siRiotGrrl (1:16:37 AM): its this one woman’s advice to younger girls on losing their virginity, and i completely agree with it.
siRiotGrrl (1:16:46 AM): it honestly makes me feel better a little bit
AntizeroM (1:16:51 AM): ok send it
siRiotGrrl (1:17:10 AM): sent
AntizeroM (1:21:43 AM): it reminds me of my first time, but I would give very different advice
AntizeroM (1:21:46 AM): but i’m a guy
siRiotGrrl (1:22:13 AM): what would you say?
siRiotGrrl (1:22:40 AM): im curious
AntizeroM (1:24:48 AM): just fuck him, shut up and fuck him. the whole idea of sex is a gift is bullshit, it’s no accident that prostitution is the oldest profession. it’s a commodity, and if you don’t believe that believe you’re going to die anyway. so if you want to spend from now to then complaining about the one go for it, but the idea of one for everyone is bullshit too
AntizeroM (1:25:07 AM): look at bums, do you think they have anyone lusting after them?
siRiotGrrl (1:25:12 AM): i do agree with teh whole gift thing
siRiotGrrl (1:25:32 AM): but yet i dont see just fucking the first guy who is interested either
siRiotGrrl (1:25:48 AM): i meant agree with you
AntizeroM (1:27:21 AM): the illusion of the one is a myth from the grimm bros, then disney. love is a chemical and biological reaction. what you are looking for is a mate with the proper genes to propogate the human race which
a) needs no help propogating
b) doesn’t deserve to propogate at all
AntizeroM (1:28:11 AM): so shut the hell up, find the least zitty teenager that’s willing to give it to you and take the plunge
AntizeroM (1:28:37 AM): that’s the advice i would give
AntizeroM (1:28:44 AM): but i’m a romantic too
siRiotGrrl (1:28:53 AM): personally, i disagree with that theory
AntizeroM (1:29:05 AM): really?
AntizeroM (1:29:28 AM): do you know the concept of romantic love is a relatively new train of thought?
AntizeroM (1:30:25 AM): it came around the time of shakespeare, marriages were pre arranged for objects or power or land
AntizeroM (1:30:39 AM): anything else was lust
AntizeroM (1:31:22 AM): that’s why it’s one of the 7 deadly sins, so it wouldn’t fuck up their concept of marriage
siRiotGrrl (1:31:26 AM): i dont see myself giving it up to the first guy who actually gives me a glimmer of interest
AntizeroM (1:32:08 AM): i didn’t expect to get punched out when i lost my virginity, but it’s different for everyone
siRiotGrrl (1:32:34 AM): yeah.
AntizeroM (1:33:10 AM): anyway the only reason that we can afford ourselves the luxury of romantic love is because we think we are better than the past
AntizeroM (1:33:20 AM): is it really so different?
AntizeroM (1:34:04 AM): ask a single woman in her 30s what she’s looking for in a guy, chances are she’s going to say good job, career, security
AntizeroM (1:34:23 AM): women still give themselves up to be in a better position socially
siRiotGrrl (1:34:32 AM): true.
AntizeroM (1:35:11 AM): even if they don’t do it on purpose they still do it on a subconcious level
siRiotGrrl (1:35:29 AM): oh yeah
AntizeroM (1:36:21 AM): if mr big was a mail clerk, or better yet a middle management guy who has three ties from kmart would carrie give it up to him?
AntizeroM (1:36:30 AM): no
siRiotGrrl (1:37:06 AM): i never watched sex in teh city, so i wouldnt know
AntizeroM (1:37:17 AM): if paris of troy was another peasent or foot soldier would he still be able to score helen
siRiotGrrl (1:37:31 AM): who knows
AntizeroM (1:38:20 AM): if romeo was a servant instead of the inheiritor of one of the most powerful families in verona, would juliet give him a second look?
siRiotGrrl (1:38:52 AM): if im correct, i dont think juliet knew romeo was a capulet. they met at a costume ball, no?
AntizeroM (1:39:27 AM): still he was well dressed, and an attendee of the ball so she knew he was in the same caste
AntizeroM (1:39:30 AM): if not better
siRiotGrrl (1:39:50 AM): ok
siRiotGrrl (1:39:56 AM): i get the point, peter
AntizeroM (1:41:06 AM): once you free yourself of the concept that romantic love is bullshit, and it’s really chemicals and 1000s of years of customs, and millions of years of biology really talking life gets better
AntizeroM (1:41:50 AM): yeah don’t get me wrong, I would like to meet a nice person. but is it really me or survival of the human race talking?
siRiotGrrl (1:42:13 AM): dunno. i just havent met someone who i felt that zing for.
AntizeroM (1:43:41 AM): you will sooner or later but remember don’t kid yourself, you really found someone who is an equal socially, mentally, and physically. then the chemical inbalances begin
siRiotGrrl (1:44:49 AM): *sigh*

Maybe it’s not all bad
Yeah I still hate christmas. I fucking loathe it. But I’m a closet optimist. So I tried to look for one story, JUST ONE to prove me wrong how it’s not all about greed and the mass homicide of trees. So I found it,
Man gives $35,000 to Denver homeless
DENVER, Colorado (AP) — Residents of Samaritan House didn’t know what to expect when the bearded, middle-aged man parked his sport utility vehicle in front of the downtown homeless shelter Christmas Eve…
Possibly the man’s biggest single donation was $5,000 to a family of six to find housing. Louis Quezada, Tessa Wittner and their four children had been living with Quezada’s parents but were thrown out after an argument. They had been in the shelter several days.
“He asked if he gave us the money, would we get a house with it,” said Quezeda, 23. “We said yes.”
Ok so that’s one good thing out of a holiday filled with violence, anger and greed. But if he was never homeless would he have done the same thing? Probably not, but he did do a good thing regardless.
Good going bearded stranger, seriously.

Happy Birthday RFNYC
Some how I forgot yesterday, but RFNYC turned two. If it was a child it would be old enough for me to start beating it’s ass.
I think there are several times for renewal throughout the year. One is your birthday, the fall, and the new year. I hate two out of three of them however so I’m screwed. But this is RFNYC we’re talking about, which is technically an abstract thing. It like so many other websites, isn’t a physical thing. It represents something to someone, so that makes it cool.
So let’s do the year in review shall we?
- Iraq sucks, and half of the nation is retarded.
- Our friendly national dictator is around for another four years
- RFNYC died, then became reborn
- I still don’t have a girlfriend
- I couldn’t go back to finish school, but still attempting
- I learned first hand that outsourcing sucks ass, but I’m starting a new job pretty soon
- Adult swim kicks ass
- Marriage is an institution, being a best man is an honor and a torture ritual at the same time.
- I can beat up dinosaurs, well children believe I can.
- You have serious problems when you believe Hillary Duff is a sex symbol, and you have a legitimate shot at her.
So listen to this stuff kids and be enlightened. Thanx for the memories.

Correction, correction
On the blog about the pixies show I wrote
Their list was great, there was lots of stuff from Surfer Rosa, and Dolittle. They threw in some Come on Pilgrim tracks, but it would have been great if they included stuff from Trompe Le Monde. The most interesting was in the beginning of the set with where is my mind, and ended it with it as well. The end version was faster and harder though, so it seemed like a proper goodbye. They did come out for an encore which they played Gigantic.
Someone checked out the site, and wrote
btw……the song they opened with was the slower “UK Surf” version of Wave of Mutilation, though, not Where is My Mind. they played the faster doolittle version of “Wave” later in the show, too.-Dave
Yeah, he’s right. I was still in shock for the night, and I just couldn’t remember.
Correction made.
In the same vein of pixies news, they are releasing the last 12 concerts on in a limited edition CD. There is only going to be 1000 made of each concert, except for the last NYC and Boston shows which there will be 2,500 made.
I ordered mine for the show I went to, so now you have permission to order yours. Except for SIheadcase, and Lisa D Aussie. I’m making you both cop… err umm cop your own through hardwork.
Told ya it sucked.
We defeated the big bad ape, and I made Johnny D put the controller down. I looked at him and I said “congrats ninja, you beat halo 2.”
He looked at me and asked “umm that’s it?”
“Yep that’s it” I said as I watched the end cut scenes, and credits roll by.
“No it can’t be.” He looked at the TV almost wistful, like I told him Santa took a dump in his cereal.
“Yeah that’s it. Now you know why I hate it so much?”
“What happend to the chase scene, like at the end of Halo 1?” He looked at the screen again, “What about the fight for earth? Why are the prophets dicks? Where did the three years go?”
“They were lazy, bungie lied, the prophets are small dicked sterile assholes, and the time went down the toilet” I replied back as the credits ended.
“You gotta be fucking kidding me. When is the next one coming out? Soon right, or there is going to be downloadable content?” Johnny threw his controller onto the floor and lit a smoke.
“No I’m not, they didn’t officially announce the next one. Rumor has it, it’ll be for the xbox 2…”
“Wait so I’m going to have to drop around 300 so I can pick up a $50 dollar game that should have been released two years ago?” He asked.
“Yeah, this was a giant trailer for Halo 3 pretty much.”
“What were they doing for three years?”
“Adding two handed capability, too bad they forgot to include ammo for the human weapons.”
“The next one better kick ass or I’m going to be fucking pissed.”
I tried to cheer Johnny up at this point. “Hey man, at least we have halo 1.”
“…”
“Hey man come on, hours avoiding Barbara. Saving mankind like men, the library. Remember, it’s not so bad we always will have that.”
“Yeah.” He said as he was pouting.
“Come on… Remember that time I sacrificed myself so you can live so you can escape in one piece?” Johnny stayed silent. “For the colony buddy remember?”
He finally cracked a smile. “Yeah.”
Si headcase walked in at this point. “You two are fucking sick, it’s a video game.”
“Shut up bitch, as you were dreaming of Bon Jovi, and playing with barbies we were out there saving your ez bake oven from a Covie armada. You don’t talk to vet’s like that.”
“Fine NO MORE christmas cookies for you.” She slammed the door.
“Psycho, I’m sorry come on…”

Comments are back
For now anyway.
I had to turn them off due to comment spam, so I did some digging around and I found a pretty good program to slow them down. So we’ll see if we can all play nice, if not I’ll turn the shit off. I kinda liked the quiet, it was like a zen garden of sorts.
