So I went to the career fair today. Found a few good leads. But I am sorry, since when is Mcdonald's a career opportunity? Yet there they were alongside Rockwell Collins, Aflac and all the rest. Why settle for the best when you can join the rest?

Ok.. So this may sound strange... but have you gotten ready to squish a bug and decided instead to have pity on it and throw it outside? I found an ant in the house today, and my normal thought was squish and forget.. but then I just couldn't bring myself to do it. It wasn't really doing anything.. just walking around so i put it outside. I'm not sure why I took pity on the thing. it was just an ant after all, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. kinda weird. I know tommorow it will probably be back to squishing time, but today I guess I'm just not feeling it.

last quick note of the nite. It is really disturbing to google yourself (i.e. Captain Creative) and instead stumble onto the blog of Captain Erotic. If you are not easily offended you should try to find his site. To ensure that I am not corrupting our youth directly I will not be linking to his blog from here.

Enjoy.. (You know you want to)

I recently got ahold of the movie "Song of The South". The infamous disney movie they don't want you to see. I plan on watching it tonight. I haven't seen it since I was little. I know some people are offended by this movie. I want to judge for myself. Sometimes in the face of all the rhetoric, and all the bitterness everyone tosses at each other, the best way to take a stand against it all is to sit back and let the work speak to you in it's own words. I firmly believe that if we don't open our minds to what is out there good or bad, and instead lock everything away that might offend someone then we truly are not living up to the intentions of this country. One day it's a movie you shouldn't be allowed to see, the next an image, the next a book. With every horror that takes place throughout the world daily I cherish dearly the freedom I have to decide what does and does not offend me, not what someone else tells me should offend me. I hope we never lose that right.

Poetry a trois

A life revisited
04-17-2006

too young to die,
too old to be relevant,
too content for angst,
too angry to care,
too friendly to be lonely,
too lonely to cry,
too miserable to be happy,
too happy to be around,
too arrogant for most,
too modest for words,
too loud to be silenced,
too shy to speak out,

I am all yet none of these

poetry- redux...

Win a date with Joe Millionaire!
Just sign up today, Big Brother,
Be sure to check your Fear Factor at the door

Be sure to check your local listings, Before you head to Boot Camp to be an American Idol.

I'm still trying to decide if I'm HOT or NOT, and who is friend or Foe.
and just who is the Weakest Link to The MOLE.

My Surreal Lfe can't handle this stuff, I'm just a Joe Schmo like the rest.

At least there's still CNN. Everybody knows that's not real... Right?

to quote some famous creative thinkers... "And now for something completely different...." poetry....

'Footnote to History"
1st draft 4-5-2003, final version 4-17-2006

Where did all the drive in's go?
They went out with Hawaii Five oh.
Their screens a rest for wayward birds,
Their rusted speakers now bad movie dialogue urns.

The past is gone,
Long live the dead,
The 80's still live on in my head.

Glory Days are long past,
Along with ninety-nine cent gas,
That died along with our innocence.

Nowdays Wal-Mart runs the show,
And Kurt Cobain's back on the radio,
(I think he's still dead, but what do I know)

So go ahead set your vcr,
Smash it with a steel guitar,
(and whatever you do don't forget GWAR)

Don't like that?
Who do you think you are?

Me, I'm just a speed bump on the highway of history,

...and no one's slowing down for me..
........and no one's slowing down for me...

I know.. I know... I haven't posted anything thus far, the holiest of holy marketing days at least in spring time. A time.. when young minds turn to biting ears off chocolate rabbits, and aww.. mom... do I have to go to church? I just couldn't really find anything to say to today. I must have liked this holiday at one time I am sure, but now it just seems really artificial. I think I truly have lost the ability to really get much out of any holiday. I do like doing things with the wee one, and he is excited whenever a holiday hits, but they just leave me cold. On the plus side I am finally feeling better which is a wonderful thing. I will be glad I am back to being 100% of my usual obnoxious self.

Hope everyone did have a wonderful easter and for those who don't celebrate, I hope you had a great day.
