somebody left me a present last night. the presidential (mis)speak – the very curious language of george w bush 2004 page a day calendar. so now, my favs from the first 8 months

“we’re working on what’s called 10-plus-10-over-10…to help russia securitize the dismantling – the dismantled nucular warheads.”

“first of all, i appreciate the wisdom of Chairman Greenspan. He uses the word, “soft spot.” I use the word, “bumpin along.”

“perhaps the biggest problem is that we have passed children from grade to grade, year after year, and those child haven’t learned the basics of reading and math.”

“and…it’s gettin’ worse. That’s what people have gotta understand up there in Washington, or over there in Washington, down there in Washington, wherever – i thought i was in Crawford for a minute.”

“do you have blacks, too?” – comment made to brazilian president fernando henrique cardoso

“one of the things we did before comin’ over is we had a round-table discussion sitting around a square table.” ROFLMAO

“she had a relative named Eisenhower, and he and I share something in common. We’re both presidents.”

“listen, i understand water. i grew up in midland, texas. you remember how much water we didn’t have there.”
i think if i was president, and a president who didn’t know english, i’d hire some kind of speech coach…or at least someone to teach me how to read a teleprompter.

i sooo want to see Hedwig on the stage. maybe it’ll go back to toronto or something. it won’t ever be put on in buffalo. i wonder if it’s still playing in NY (without john cameron mitchell). or boston, which is where it seems the MPS gathering is gonna end up being. i can make them go with me. or not. i’ll just go by myself lol. i also have to go to london to see the Queen play and the Boy George one lol. mom still wants me to go see the ABBA one in toronto.

 

i’m going to stop myself before i start. i am not going to ramble on about how great trent is, and how funny he is (probably not even intending to be funny) but…this is a very fight club-ish quote: “You just realize you’re not on Happy Days. It’s the real world; You need to ignore what you are programmed by sitcoms to think your life should be.”

i found the quote when i was searching for the reese’s quote. cuz i just ate an egg shaped peanut butter cup and almost puked. god they’re disgusting: (About Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.) “It’s the perfect balance of shitty peanut material and chocolate.”

 

holy bowie gas is 1.47 a gallon!!!!!!! so now i gotta make sure i only drive around until i have a 1/4th tank left. cuz i need a 1/4th tank to get home next friday, and then my parents will probably give me money or fill my tank for me. yah. lol.

i was gonna go outside and read, but then i realized i don’t have a stereo or radio that i can take downstairs. so i’m just going to stay inside.

my DM cd order was confirmed, but lestat still isn’t…u got a day and a half left to confirm whoever u are.

just wasted an hour watching the corrs on vh1. happened to turn it on at the beginning of a commercial break that said “up next bono and ronnie wood” so i was like oooh yay, just in time for bono. of course…3 commercial breaks later bono was on. but i’d have to say my personal sacrifice was worth it 🙂

 

line of the day, from Fight Club: “self improvement is masturbation”

i dunno. it sorta just popped into my head when i was walking home from class and seemed relevant. it was relevant to things discussed/thought about last night regarding degradation and objectification of women, and things we talked about today in adolescent about gender.

and speaking of adolescent. 4.0 no more. got a 67/80 (83%) on my exam (71/80 on the first exam – 88%)…i got a 30/30 on my stupid paper i wrote doped up on sudafed. but i need an 85 on the final to get an A…it’s out of 80. so…yeah. not happening. WHICH PISSES ME OFF CUZ IT’S ADOLESCENT DEVELOPMENT! 200 LEVEL! ALL REVIEW PRACTICALLY! so i guess i’ll have to settle for the A- and not get a 4.0. this semester was my only real chance at a 4.0. oh well.

it’s a beautiful day. i think i’m gonna go to aldi and get some food, stop at soundgarden maybe. and i think i might watch hedwig later. i’ve been watching all my other fav movies, i might as well. it’s been a while. and i should actually get some work done too. finish my poli sci chapter, 15 pages left i think. and read clinical cuz we have a test already on wednesday (2 weeks after the last one :P).

yay for people giving me gifts. first off, david is wonderful. he’s giving danielle the extra apolo pics from rolling stone for me. she was like, sara gets RS, and david is like yeah i KNOW but the pics are back to back so she’ll need an extra copy… LOL isn’t that nice? and then he got a Homie for me (which i ended up getting the same one at tops last night). and then adr taped my favourite 90210 episode for me…yay.

now if i could only get carolyn’s trent tape…it’s only been 3 weeks now. i guess they’re not sorting mail over break so it might be sitting in the mail room.

so last night was interesting. randomly invited kurt up to meet at denny’s. he came up with his friend joe (too many joe’s out there), and i met them there with danielle and adr. it was cool. sat there for like 3 hours taking, and had food of course. good times.

of course the night i actually stay out, and don’t get home til 1:30 i gotta get up early to buy tea party tickets. so i did that. not sure what tix i got… i got 3 for me danielle and adr, that were like orchestra section 1 row h…and then i got 6 for joe (different joe, joe from tonawanda) and his friends that were like orchestra section 2 row c or something…so hopefully they are good tix, so joe won’t murder me.

tonight is sabres game at some bar with joe and jon, and adrienne and danielle if she decides to go. and tomorrow totally going to see Smoochy. making adr go with me haha. she said it looks stupid and i’m like it looks great!

and i started my new medicine, and i’m not sure if it was supposed to work right away, but my head didn’t hurt at all yesterday til we were at denny’s at like midnight, when it probably had worn off….so we’ll see how it goes today. i’m not dead so that’s good 🙂

 

i’m sorry. i apologize in advance for this post.

trennnntttt!!!! omg i watched the “becoming” still video just now for the first time in a while, downloading it to see if i can convert it…oomggg…. that’s me right now. huge smile on my face. it’s involuntary. i just sat here watching and then realized i was grinning. and i realized when exactly that it was i smiled…this one part during the song, and just..was so great. it’s the lips. lol.

and also wanted to say before, reading Interview with the vampire makes me really want to start writing my long dead jayde/evan/raine story again. people who read it said i wrote alot like Anne Rice, which i TOTALLY do not see AT all…the only thing similar between my story and Anne Rice is that both mentioned vampires and part of mine was in new orleans. yeah, that’s SO similar. anyway..yeah so i’ve been thinking about it alot the past few days, and we’ll see…maybe i’ll get inspired. i might start it over again, cut out the whole evan part that wasn’t supposed to be in it to begin with but sorta happened..

 

haha found one of my really old IRC logs from 1997… so funny. i don’t remember this stuff at all. like i’m talking about seeing Ed Wood. I’ve never seen Ed Wood…maybe i saw 5 min or something on tv haha..(my nick was MissTink or Glimmer)

i’m having this conversation with cyndi about dumbo. i don’t really remember dumbo really, except for the pink elephants. which i thought were super scary. and i realized some of the movies i find the scariest, creepiest movies are kids movies. first off, most if not all disney movies are really scary. i’ve never been a huge fan of disney so let’s think
lion king – scar (is that his name) kills mufasa…scar is one scary mofo…
little mermaid – whatever that octopus woman’s name was who stole ariels voice – scary.
dumbo – pink elephants – scary…dumbo getting drunk, that whole part
pinnochio – the misfits (that is the right movie correct?)
aladdin – jafar (cyndi said this…i’ve seen the movie a billion times, but i barely remember him at all)
sleeping beauty and snow white – just really scary… lol
alice in wonderland – i love this movie, but it’s a giant drug trip and it’s scary
peter pan – i had to watch that a bunch of times recently, and yeah it’s scary. peter is evil looking, and captain hook is evil, and yeah it’s scary.
beauty and the beast – the beast, nuff said lol
song of the south – ok i dunno if this one was scary cuz i don’t remember, but it was totally racist LOL
bambi – don’t remember it, but his mother was shot so… yeah scary.
and perhaps the scariest children’s movie i’ve seen… “willy wonka”… OMG IT’S SO FUCKING SCARY! esp the part with Wonka chanting on the riverboat…jesus christ. i saw it last year maybe on tv, and had totally forgotten about that part… after i was like HOLY SHIT that was scary. i think i posted the chant on my blog before…must find it again.
THERE’S NO EARTHLY WAY OF KNOWING
WHICH DIRECTION WE ARE GOING
THERE’S NO KNOWING WHERE WE’RE ROWING
OR WHICH WAY THE RIVER’S FLOWING
IS IT RAINING
IS IT SNOWING
IS A HURRICANE A-BLOWING
BLEH!
NOT A SPECK OF LIGHT IS SHOWING
SO THE DANGER MUST BE GROWING
ARE THE FIRES OF HELL A GLOWING?
IS THE GRISLY REAPER MOWING?
YES! THE DANGER MUST BE GROWING
FOR THE ROWERS KEEP ON ROWING
AND THEY’RE CERTAINLY NOT SHOWING
ANY SIGNS THAT THEY ARE SLOWING!

there we go…it’s scary just reading it, but in his possessed chant…

and another scary kids movie… Wizard of Oz… christ. scary. and the black remake, The Wiz…mega scary.

i so know i’m not insane. there was this movie i saw as a kid. the only thing i remember about it was this book, and there was a green head that came out of it. it was this evil book thing. that’s all i know…. WHAT MOVIE IS THIS! SOMEONE HELP ME!!!!

MacFishto: The dark Crystal should have been banned…
Opal Tranquility: what was that?
MacFishto: that is the king of scarey
Opal Tranquility: i havent heard of that
MacFishto: OH good lord…it was this trippy muppet movie
Opal Tranquility: i remember some like, carebare movie, with some green head that came out of a book
Opal Tranquility: NO WAIT ITS THAT
MacFishto: from like 1980
Opal Tranquility: THE GREEN HEAD THING
Opal Tranquility: RIGHT?
MacFishto: um…
Opal Tranquility: lol or not
MacFishto: green headed thing?
Opal Tranquility: hahah nm
Opal Tranquility: no one ever knows what i’m talkign about, and i certainly dont
Opal Tranquility: i just know i saw some movie as a kid with this green head that came out of a book
MacFishto: no what are you talking about..can you remember anything lse about it
Opal Tranquility: nope
Opal Tranquility: except it may have been care bears
Opal Tranquility: lol

I FOUND IT! I WASN’T IMAGINING THINGS AND IT REALLY WAS A CAREBEAR MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THAT IS IT!!!!!! AND IT WAS AN ORANGE HEAD NOT A GREEN ONE! BUT THAT WAS IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I AM NOT INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!

this, is a spectacular idea
blah blah blah u2 playing first arena show in the US in worcester mass. “When security came charging after one girl, Bono motioned them away, wrapped his arms around her, and waltzed with her around the lip of the stage. Then he continued singing while she slumped down and hung onto his leg. Eventually Bono came in from his emoting long enough to realize that she wasn’t just hugging him. She had chained herself to his ankle. And she did not have a key. The concert had to continue with Bono attached to the fan until the roadies could get a saw and chop her off.”

BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!

more funnies from the u2 book: the scene – u2 are invading england on a greenpeace boat because they were forbidden to go near this nuclear waste site on land.
“One woman present suggests to Bono that there’s an empty cabin available if he’d like to go lie down for a while. Thanks, Bono says, that would be great. She leads Bono in and stands there staring at him as he lies down on the cot. Bono is exhausted; he tries to ignore her. Then she says, “Aren’t you going to take off your pants?”
Er, Bono says, no, that’s ok. I’m fine. Thank you. Then she climbs onto the cot next to him. Gently but firmly Bono explains that the young woman upstairs with the brown hair is his wife. Ahhh. And maybe she’d like to take a nap with me, hmmm? That’s right, ok, thank you. The woman goes off to fetch Ali and Bono lies back, relieved. A couple of minutes later the door opens again, Ali comes in and lies down next to her husband. It is the first time the two of them have been alone together in ages, what with Bono on the road, and the weary couple try to make the best of this odd circumstance. As they begin to cuddle, though, Ali lets out a yelp. Their hostess is back and has climbed into bed with them. Well, Bono says, jumping up, let’s see what’s going on on deck.”
“Paul McGuinness watches them through binoculars. Then the manager turns his attention to a special project for the boys. Paul has with him the cover of the Beatles’ album Help with its photograph of the Fab Four waving navy signal flags. Paul has eight red flags and a booklet of instructions on how to spell out letters. He summons U2 to the top deck and lines them up and they begin learning to spell out first “H-E-L-P” and then “F-O-A-D” – a favourite expression of Larry’s that abbreviates “fuck off and die.”
Great rock band though they are, choreography has never been U2’s strong suit. They spend a lot of time getting their signals backward (they are following McGuinness, who is facing them, which gets confusing) and hitting eachother with flags. During the difficult “switch” from “H-E-L-P” to “F-O-A-D”, Adam pokes Bono in the eye. Eventually the entire exercise degenerates into a sword fight with semaphores.”

hahahah….after the greenpeace stuff….
“When the bus trip resumes, Bono and I head to the backseat. As we approach Manchester I say, “Well, of course, Bono, everybody must be asking you about all the references to oral sex in your new songs…”
“WHAT?” Bono sputters. “Bill, you’ve turned to the wrong page in your notebook, you’re asking me Prince questions!”
Listen, I say, to these lines from recent u2 songs: “surrounding me, going down on me,” “You can swallow or you can spit,” “here she comes, six and nine again,” “did i leave a bad taste in your mouth,”…
“Ahh.” Bono mumbles something about sixty-nine being one of the most equal sexual positions and then strongly suggests we get onto another subject.”

 

oh and the praise keeps coming in about the MPS site that was debuted yesterday – which i think is funny cuz there are some parts i’m not happy with, and i’d like to be different/better. but everyone that is involved in the MPS and the interference msgboard loves it, they think it’s amazing LOL. and yes, there is ALOT to it, and stuff, and i am proud of it cuz it is really complicated…i still think it could be better. but ah well. it’s done…..which is funny too, cuz i’ve still been working on it all day since i got home from work…stupid stories that have to be rewritten chapter by chapter for the site. hahah

 

if i had a band i’d cover billy idol’s “eyes without a face” lol. or rebel yell…some billy idol song.

i realized that sitting at my desk makes me feel like i’m dying. so i’m gonna try not to spend so much time at it anymore. of course, that’s not gonna happen. but my posture makes my tendonitis in my shoulder hurt, and that makes my whole chest hurt and i feel like i’m having a heart attack, and then my head feels weird – not a headache, but like there’s no circulation in it. and yeah. it makes me feel like shit to sit here. too bad like, my whole life revolves around my sites, and my friends that are online that i need to talk to…oh well.

i was talking to this woman at work today. she’s always been…out there. she’s not all there in the head, someone said she was an alcoholic and has this weird alcohol brain diesease… i forget what they called it. i don’t even know if it’s a real thing, but it made sense. but i think she’s schizophrenic. she started talking to me today about all kinds of persecutory things that happen to her.. her mail being tampered with, her car being tampered with, things being stolen from her, people using her phone to call Miss Cleo (lol), her daughters computer disks being erased, things that she’s personally taken to doctors – like referrals – being misplaced or tampered with… really paranoid kinds of things. and she talks to herself, and sometimes you’ll talk to her and she just WILL NOT hear you. it’s strange…and it’s really weird, cuz she was in the army, and she was a nurse – yet she’s working at mcdonalds, lives in the projects, is on welfare and gets food stamps. so something is not right. she should be able to get a nursing job, or something medical related. she seems really bright, when she’s being “normal” and not spaced out. she knows alot of stuff, and i can have conversations with her and she knows what i’m talking about….and rose, who is schizophrenic, she works at tops because she couldn’t hold down a job…she’s poor but not on welfare…lots of personal problems. alot like this woman at work…weird.

so i might have decided on a new career goal – advertising. and the web design thing… but i might go back to school for advertising or something. dunno.

 

i just got email from MJIFC – the michael jackson internet fan club…they’re shutting down. after 7 years. it’s kinda funny, and kinda not. i joined in early 96 i think, and i LOVED it. i finally felt like i could talk about stuff going on with me and being an MJ fan after 6 months of feeling really isolated in regards to it. i met so many great people through it (carolyn, amanda, sandy, emily, cyndi etc…others who i met later in #mjfans). but then it sorta exploded, and the old founders left, and it just got really shitty. it changed formats to digest only from seperate emails…and then there was the whole thing where they bounced a post i sent because it was too large – when it was actually a good post, and not some stupid 1 line piece of shit from some newbie…after that i unsubscribed, and went to news only so i could get info updates. it was a great thing back in the day, and it got out of hand. and now they’re shutting it down. end of an era… sorta goes hand in hand with where i am in regards to MJ now. interesting…i dunno what else to say about it. just felt like mentioning it.

another brilliant jem: from APs 10 essential albums to leave off your holiday shopping list.
“Nickelback – these canadian hacks have inexplicably risen to the top of the charts by sounding just like Creed. Frankly, one Creed was more than enough, seeing as though we already have Pearl Jam.”

hahahahahaha that made my night.

 

quote of the day: regarding the new album “i think it will make people want to have sex – or maybe not, if you picture me in mind” – marilyn manson

LOL

 

never fails… i get THE best emails “WATCH ME DRINK A GALLON OF CUM!” LOL

GQ: When you jump into the crowd, does anyone ever try to grab your cock?
Bono: Sometimes, yeah. Quite often you’ll feel a hand getting a hold down there.
GQ: What do you think when that happens?
Bono: Oh, mad shit. I try to lift myself out of it like Blake’s angel.
It’s not that I don’t want sex to be part of the equation, but I’m trying
to elevate it to something higher. Our job – or our mission if we decided to
accept it – was to try not to feel as if we were above sex but to make it
more than cock-rock. There’s an instict for transcendence, but there’s also
an instinct for baseness. I think the two can happily co-exist. Spirit and cock

 

“If i am close to the music, and you are close to the music, then we are close to each other.” – Bono, 2001

 

“When those people get up at the Grammys and say, ‘I thank God,’ I always imagine God going, ‘Oh, don’t- please don’t thank me for that one. Please, oh that’s an awful one! Don’t thank me for that!'” – Bono at the Grammys 2001

 

MAX: So have you actually played guitar on this album (pop)?

Bono: I’ve played guitar, some of the guitar solos are mine.

MAX: Wow.

Bono: No, they are not. At Passengers I’ve played the guitar a bit at the end of Blue Room. There is a bit of my guitar playing, but honestly it’s sad.

Larry: It is. But Bono looks great with it.

 

 

 

question. this is serious. i have this really bad feeling lately.. not of impending doom or anything. i feel as if tension is building in every one of my relationships lately (sans a few, you know who you are)…and it makes me wonder, am i really that unreasonable that things can’t be discussed with me? am i so intimidating that people don’t want to confront me with problems they may be having with me? i’m feeling very self-consious right now. i feel like i have to walk on egg shells with just about everyone around me. i don’t want to say something that can be taken the wrong way. this happens all the time, and i don’t know what it is. if there is a problem, i would expect someone to come and tell me about it. maybe i’m making all this up, and no tension exists at all…but it happens all the time. i get this feeling, and no one confronts me about anything, and then it keeps going on without being discussed until it blows up and is too late. it happened 2 years ago, and instead of confronting me about problems they took it out on danielle. and even after they took it out on danielle, they STILL didn’t mention it to me. and while this isn’t the same situation, it feels the same way.

i need to get out of here. i need to get out of her SO badly.

 

 

so i just remembered something my mom said to me this summer. well when i started hanging out with joe, of course the next logical question was “are you going out with him?”…and i said no. cuz we’re not dating. so then one day we were driving somewhere and i was talking about him, or something about the next EC show we were going to or whatever…she’s like, you aren’t going out with him? and i’m like NO! and shes like oh… do you think you ever could date him?. and i’m like WTF… you haven’t even MET the kid and you want to pawn me off on him?!?!…she never likes the guys i like…she liked Scott, and well that turned out lovely ..and she thought Tim was hot, but me and tim never had a relationship….so now she hasn’t even met joe, and she wants me to date him…trying to get rid of me or something mother?…that just kinda irritated me all of a sudden.

deep thoughts

deep thoughts…by jack handey

Too bad you can’t buy a voodoo globe so that you could make the earth spin real fast and freak everybody out.

When you’re riding in a time machine way far into the future, don’t stick your elbow out the window, or it’ll turn into a fossil.

To me, it’s a good idea to always carry two sacks of something when you walk around. That way, if anybody says, “Hey, can you give me a hand?” you can say, “Sorry, got these sacks.”

Is there anything more beautiful than a beautiful, beautiful flamingo, flying across in front of a beautiful sunset? And he’s carrying a beautiful rose in his beak, and also he’s carrying a very beautiful painting with his feet. And also, you’re drunk.

Sometimes life seems like a dream, especially when I look down and see that I forgot to put on my pants.

It’s fascinating to think that all around us there’s an invisible world we can’t even see. I’m speaking, of course, of the World of the Invisible Scary Skeletons.

If you work on a lobster boat, sneaking up behind people and pinching them is probably a joke that gets old real fast.

I don’t think I’m alone when I say I’d like to see more and more planets fall under the ruthless domination of our solar system.

As I bit into the nectarine, it had a crisp juiciness about it that was very pleasurable – until I realized it wasn’t a nectarine at all, but A HUMAN HEAD!!

Sometimes when I feel like killing someone, I do a little trick to calm myself down. I’ll go over to the person’s house and ring the doorbell. When the person comes to the door, I’m gone, but you know what I’ve left on the porch? A jack-o-lantern with a knife stuck in the side of its head with a note that says “You.” After that I usually feel a lot better, and no harm done.

Contrary to what most people say, the most dangerous animal in the world is not the lion or the tiger or even the elephant. It’s a shark riding on an elephant’s back, just trampling and eating everything they see.

Laurie got offended that I used the word “puke.” But to me, that’s what her dinner tasted like.

We used to laugh at Grandpa when he’d head off and go fishing. But we wouldn’t be laughing that evening when he’d come back with some whore he picked up in town.

If you ever catch on fire, try to avoid looking in a mirror, because I bet that will really throw you into a panic.

Life, to me, is like a quiet forest pool, one that needs a direct hit from a big rock half-buried in the ground. You pull and you pull, but you can’t get the rock out of the ground. So you give it a good kick, but you lose your balance and go skidding down the hill toward the pool. Then out comes a big Hawaiian man who was screwing his wife beside the pool because they thought it was real pretty. He tells you to get out of there, but you start faking it, like you’re talking Hawaiian, and then he gets mad and chases you…

I think a good product would be “Baby Duck Hat”. It’s a fake baby duck, which you strap on top of your head. Then you go swimming underwater until you find a mommy duck and her babies, and you join them. Then, all of a sudden, you stand up out of the water and roar like Godzilla. Man, those ducks really take off! Also, Baby Duck Hat is good for parties.

I remember one day I was at Grandpa’s farm and I asked him about sex. He sort of smiled and said, “Maybe instead of telling you what sex is, why don’t we go out to the horse pasture and I’ll show you.” So we did, and there on the ground were my parents having sex.

What is it about a beautiful sunny afternoon, with the birds singing and the wind rustling through the leaves, that makes you want to get drunk? And after you’re real drunk, maybe go down to the public park and stagger around and ask people for money, and then lie down and go to sleep.

“I’ve had sex. And sex with a woman, too. Also I started smoking – cigars first and then cigarettes – but I’ve had to stop because I couldn’t hit the notes any more. There are full-voice B flats and B naturals which can be real bastards.”
-Bono, on why his voice is deeper, 2001

 

*can’t breathe!*
“The penis-ring I felt was enough. It’s a lot of weight for one man to carry. No, I’m a virgin in that sense.” – Bono, when asked by Max magazine if he had a tattoo.
*dying* lol

“Bono just wanted to meet Sisqo because he thought he was one of the few singers in the world who is shorter than he is. He was wrong by an inch.” – Edge, GQ 2001

GQ: How about those skin-tight chequerboard trousers you used to wear?
Bono: “Unforgiveable. Forget The Unforgettable Fire, what about the Unforgivable Trousers?”

“My children will tell me to turn down my Bono-ness occasionally” – Bono, 2001

BP: IF YOU WERE AN ANIMAL WHAT ANIMAL WOULD YOU BE?
Bono: A wildebeest. You’d have to have a sense of humour with a name like that

I LOVE HIM SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

obviously i’m reading the spin U2 article…
“we were freaks. somebody once said, comparing us with Van Morrison, that most people start off writing songs about girls and get to writing songs about God. We did it totally backwards!” – bono

“‘beautiful day’ takes on a whole different meaning, ’cause that was the thing on September 11th – it was a beautiful morning.” – larry……………………why that is so important to me that i quoted it, was because i think that all the time. no one around me mentioned what an absolutely gorgeous day that was…and now everytime we have a really nice day out, i think about how beautiful a day that sept 11th was….

“It was Larry who actually said to me at the end of Pop, in a very Larry kind of way, “Next year, why don’t we actually make a pop album, instead of just calling it Pop?”” – bono ROFLMAO…i dunno why i thought that was so funny…

in regards to the song “peace on earth” – “now that’s a bitter little song! I think people get the bitterness now, cause before i think they thought it was lovey-dovey, “wouldn’t it be nice.” as opposed to “fuck off, god!” which i hope is even stronger coming out of the mouth of a believer.” – bono

ok… bono is nuts. i have no idea what the hell this analogy is supposed to be about…i think he just started talking, and needed to end somewhere so he did. god i love him. ” i think the dalai lama said, “if you want to consider life, start with death” – the journey toward enlightenment starts with that. and that’s what happened to me when my mother died when i was a kid in school, and at my grandfather’s funeral. i was this really confident kid, aggro and smartarse, a freckled face – i looked like a baked bean when i was a kid, i really did. then a nose started to appear. it was a bit of a shock – out of this baked bean came this nose. i was a little alarmed, and then this chin came, until the two of them finally called it quits. i had the courage of somebody who didn’t know anything, who didn’t know fear yet, and then came the cold water of your home turning into a house and your relationship to women changing forever. i was 14. but now i see it was a great gift to me. hopefully most people can avoid that until they’re older, but some people have it young. i don’t know what age new york city is.”

WHAT THE HELL IS HE TALKING ABOUT?! ok i get the first part…and then his mother dies at his grandpas funeral…right. and then wtf is this part about a nose and chin?…puberty? and a home turning into a house?….and relationship to women changing.. is he talking about sex there? does he mean he was 14 when he lost his virginity? i’m pretty sure he was 14 when his mom died…and then the part about, it being a great gift… i’m thinking he’s back to talking about his mom dying, and him having to “grow up” at age 14…and does he mean now, that NYC got this “gift” and now has to grow up?!?!?!?! i love you bono. you make everything so interesting!

 

 

“i always believed that music is a transcendent thing, a healing thing. I just didn’t think that i would have to depend on it as much as i did this year” – bono

“It never was only sound; only words – it was so much more.” – Trent Reznor

 

Disney movies are so racist…i never paid attention, so maybe it’s only old disney movies that are racist – reflecting the time period or what not… and like “song of the south”…at least they admit that it’s completely racist, and points a pretty picture of the master-slave relationship…and that the movie just about ignores that slavery existed…hah. ahhh disney, you are wonderful!….in Peter Pan they talk about how Red Skins are cunning but not very intelligent….and there is a whole song about “why is the red man red? when did he first say ug? why does he say how?” hahah….blows my mind.

 

Adam Clayton’s (Tom) diary Feb 14, 1982

“February 14th Valentine’s Day
Today is St. Valentine’s Day and where is my Valentine? On the drive from Austin to San Antonio we stopped off at a snake farm/amateur zoo. It was very depressing. Lots of caged animals not looking very healthy. The high point was a mad monkey which had epileptic fits accompanied by blood-chilling shrieks. It was really quite a scream because Bono started singing. This infuriated the creature even further — its shrieks grew louder. Bono matched its volume until the deranged creature started to beat his head against the wall. Eventually a very brusque woman ran over and dismissed us, complaining how cruel it was to drink sodas in front of our friend as there was nothing it liked more than a glass of Coke.

On to the gig. During the show, Bono handed out flowers to girls. Wish I’d done that. He’s got friends for life. Afterwards we spent a long time with the punters. The Texans are a nice simple people, consequently conversation lasted long. 3.15 a.m. back to the hotel via The Alamo, which received the dubious accolade of consecration with Ozzy Osbourne’s urine.

Fort Apache, The Bronx was on the HBO cable. Great film and Paul Newman’s best performance in years.

Friday

Up too early with everyone looking wrecked. Arrive in Denver and Edge discovers a ski resort 50 miles up country. The four of us head off. It had to be hushed up as a broken leg at this stage of the tour would not be welcome. Stories were fabricated and changed so that no one had any idea where we were. It was a lovely drive through the Rockies to the resort. Once there, Edge organises the activities, as he is the experienced amateur. We get our skis on and Bono falls over immediately. We potter about on the nursery slopes under Edge’s instructions. I eventually feel confident enough to try my luck on the mountain. I wish I hadn’t. I’ve never been so frightened in all my life. To reach the top of the mountain we have to hang on chair lift, hundreds of feet above the ground with no safety bar. I was so hysterical I would have gladly thrown myself off had Edge not kept me talking.

At the top it soon becomes obvious that I had been over optimistic. I tell Edge to go off and enjoy himself, I’ll walk down. The mountain very nearly claimed me. Edge goes up and down twice in the time it takes me to walk. Then he did a black slope. As you might know black slopes are very serious. And then some, like black holes and black belts. We retire to the bar for the only bit of ski I like — apres ski and Gluewein. We make the mistake of ordering Irish Coffees, which are barely coffee and certainly not Irish. The cream comes from one of those aerosol jobs and there’s a nasty green mint liqueur to boot. Once back in the hotel we decide to go and see Reds. It’s a good film but I felt it lost its punch in places, but maybe that’s because I was so tired.”

ROFLMAO…omg how adorable is that!!! i can imagine bono trying to outscream the epilleptic monkey ROFL…and Adam and Edge skiing, Bono falling over… ROFL…omg…yes i’m working on my paper, thanks for asking.

 

 

my grandpa called. it’s really funny how there are certain things my family isn’t allowed to talk about with him. like we can’t tell him important things we’ve done in our lives, because he’ll flip out. the most recent one is we’re not allowed to tell him my aunt bought a bed and breakfast. she told him they bought a house, and it’s an old stone house…but they left out the bed and breakfast part, cuz he’ll freak out. my mom is 52 and he still doesn’t know she used to smoke as a teenager. he doesn’t know my dad bought a toyota mr2 5 years ago LOL. there are just so many things that are off limits. definitely not going to mention my cross country trip during the summer…so today, he’s telling me about how my aunt bought an old stone house in wisconsin, etc etc etc…and i’m sitting here thinking, yup i know, i knew about it a month ago…lol. i dunno, it’s just funny.

i think trent reznor should do a whole album of his instrumentals. they are really so good, and i can’t even imagine what else he could do with them. i realize it would be an album purely for nin fans…but really, does he ever make an album that is supposed to be for the masses? no. haha…i just think it would be really amazing to hear all his instrumentals. the ones that are on the fragile are just so incredible… i get blown away every time. especially “just like you imagined”….”the mark has been made”…”the frail”…yeah….”pilgramage” or as i like to call it “1984” hahah if you never read the book, you won’t get that…oh well. ur loss hehe…

yeaaah i’m working on my paper. i wrote another paragraph! basically it’s just the definition of attachment copied directly from my notes hehe

 

 

i love the merivale mall books. teenage girls need more quality books like these…
“As Don’s handsome face filled Danielle’s thoughts, she had to feel a little sorry that a real relationship between the two of them was, in fact, utterly impossible. After all, she was Danielle Sharp of Wood Hollow Hills, the wealthiest neighborhood in Marivale, and one of the exclusive Atwood Academy’s most popular juniors. She had to live up to the super-high status her family had achieved ever since her father had made a fortune designing and developing Merivale Mall. She had to wear the best clothes, go to the best schools…and date the best boys. And Don James? He lived on a run-down farm with a bunch of guys who wore grungy black leather jackets and drove around like maniacs on motorcycles. Don went to public school – Merivale High School – and studied auto mechanics of all things. In other words, Don was the very definition of low status!”

girls need role models like Danielle…she knows what’s going on!!

did i mention i could have written these books? no one’s ever read the first long story i’ve ever written, but let’s just say…it’s quite valley girl, miss popular cheerleader – esque… I WAS 12 WHEN I STARTED WRITING IT!!…but lets just say at 12, my story was far better than these books. lol

OMG i SWEAR i wrote this book!!!
Merivale Mall: “the fact was, when she’d transferred from Merivale High to Atwood, they had been the only popular girls who even talked to her. And thanks to them, Danielle had been able to work her way into the popular crowd too.”
My story: “It was the beggining of the school year, in a new school. I would be so embarassed if anyone saw me here and it would ruin my chance of becoming a cheerleader. I looked over at the door and saw the most popular girl in school, Lindsay Carteers, walk in the shuffelboard court. She walked right toward me.”

oh i’m too tired to find any more of my old story parts that are exactly like this book…but lets just say, THE ENTIRE THING i could have written hahaha
