I hate it when you need to sneeze and your mouth's full, because you either have to
A: try to open your mouth only slightly in an effort to not sneeze bits of food all over yourself and your surroundings less they be other people or not, or
B: sneeze through your nose and risk snotting all over your face. . . but who the hell sneezes through their nose?
Who dat der?
Do me a favor and comment sometime. I know one person stops in once in while, but even the idiot who asked me to do this in the first place can't keep up with her own blog, muchless read about my shenanegans and goings-on.

It's a Saturday afternoon and I'm cleaning out my mother's refrigerator.

Why Picard is superior to Kirk.
1. Picard's worst episodes were originally written for Kirk.
2. Picard discovers new life, new civilizations and strange new worlds, not discarded movie sets from period 1950's dramas.
3. Picard can act out entire Shakespearean plays, not merely remember 1 or 2 lines.
4. Picard can get his ship to orbit a planet in both directions.
5. Picard would never ever date a shape-shifter who had previously morphed into a little girl.
6. Picard doesn't need to wear glasses.
7. Picard didn't have to reprogram a computer to give him better grades in order to graduate from Starfleet Academy.
8. Picard has a ship whose engines can take it.
9. Picard has to contend with the "Prime Directive" - a ruling imposed on him by Starfleet after they saw what a complete shambles resulted when they let Kirk meet new alien races.
10. Picard never met Joan Collins.
11. Picard's bridge doesn't sound like an aviary.
12. One question: to which Captain would you entrust the safety of your daughter?
13. Picard is far too cool to beam down to a planet, strip to his waist and wrestle with some guy in a rubber lizard suit. He lets his First Officer do all that for him.
14. Picard never shot his best friend's body into space in a photon torpedo.
15. Kirk probably thinks a concerto is a kind of ice cream dessert.
16. Picard doesn't need hair - real or not.
17. Picard's crew are too sophisticated to be taken over by a bunch of women in go-go boots and have the most intelligent person aboard controlled by a box that has less buttons than a Super Nintendo joypad.
18. If their situations were reversed, Kirk would probably nail Troi. Picard has standards.
19. Kirk can just about drive a stick-shift. Picard sells Pontiacs during the commercial break.
20. Picard has a real bar aboard his ship.
21. Picard would never have let his second in command irradiate himself in the engine room.

22. Unlike Kirk's, Picard's middle name doesn't sound like an infectious disease.
23. Kirk has to fight Klingons to get his way. Picard only has to tell them what to do.
24. Picard has a small, convenient hands-free communicator, not a Fisher Price spin-n-whizz baby toy.
25. Picard would never let himself get turned into a woman.
26. Picard never has to sign an Etch-a-Sketch attendance register kept by Yeomans with hair like a helter-skelter.
27. Picard never cries in front of his crew when one of them gets killed.
28. Kirk is so boring he's caused several computers to self-destruct merely by talking to them.

34. Picard blows up another starship more than once a season.
35. Picard never has to put bits of Lego into his computers to make them work.

37. Picard never needs a pessimistic Scot to beam him out of the crap when things get ugly.

54. Picard would never blow up his own ship.
55. Imagine you have to impose your authority: "This is Captain Jean Luc Picard of the Federation Starship Enterprise. Now introduce yourself as "James Tiberius Kirk, but you can call me Jim." See the difference?

Sunday, January 18, 2004

journal excerpts:

it's pretty funny when a mormon guy gets your number and calls and asks what you're up to and your reply is "beer pong."


well, that was dissapointing. i thought i heard a skateboard, expecting to see a fine young chap rolling nearer to me, but to my dismay, as i turned all i saw was a small chinese girl witha a rolling backpack. thanks for ruining my day.


never underestimate the power of the uterus.

Fwd: FW: You'll like this, unless you are an enemy tank driver

was the subject of an e-mail i received today from my dad.

another line is:

"Turn up the sound and watch this baby burn in!
This must give Iraqi tankers a warm fuzzy feeling."

it was a video that showed an Iraqi tank being blown up via air missle.

it made me want to vomit.
My mom told me today that when i was 3 or 4 she caught me in the bathtub with a bunch of barbies and i had emptied an entire packet of glitter into the foot-deep water. She said my very matter-of-fact explaination was that I was playing mermaid.

Tell you what, glitter mermaid bath sounds wonderful. I'm a badass.
I've been google image searching things like "disney family vacation" and "family portrait" etc.. I'm going to save about 30 or so to a disc and then have them printed out. I will then frame them and hang them all around my bed. Tell you what, seeing all of these pictures makes me 1: really grateful that my family doesn't suck and 2: really scared about growing up and having ugly children and getting fatter and uglier. . .

try a search or two. see if i'm kidding.

if i could have posted some of the pictures i would have. . . but i suck.
