Lord, grant me an Egg McMuffin without shell in it.

I could be a hermit. In a cave. I think I'd live happily in my own mind. It's a right better sight than this here.

I ignore people around me, this isn't because I'm full of hate.. I learned a long time ago that hate gets you absolutely nowhere. No, I ignore because it's the only defense I have against the horrors of human nature. People's morals are in the toilet, they have become such rude ugly creatures, filled with hate and no concern for their fellow man. This makes me sick. I see it everywhere.. the strong picking on the weak, the popular shunning the unpopular. Strangers being unkind for the sake of nothing else to do. The glimmers I see of caring, of kindness are limited to one's associates and friends.. and sometimes not even then. I become hopeful at the sight of random acts of kindness, of the generally good souls out there.. but they are much fewer now than they used to be.

I wish I lived in another time, a time where people were generous, where the customer really was right and not trying to pull a fast one. Where neighbors were friendly and fences were not the equivalent of castle walls... moats and all.

Maybe I want innocence, when I trusted people and wasn't suspicious of someone walking down the street. A time people just didn't steal from each other because they could, when people didn't shoot each other because they had no other way of dealing with each other. When children were safe to play outside and not have to be watched for fear of them being taken. And if it existed before the drugs that keep me healthy and alive today, so be it.. I'd gladly trade that for the peace of mind.

Maybe this time never existed, but damn I'd like to live it, create it.

I'm so sick of the disease, this internet is just another way for it to spread as more and more feel they can do whatever they want with letters on their keyboards and to hell with whoever is on the other end. I see it here for all the talk of tolerance and accepting that spews like sewage from the mouths of the hypocrites. High levels that think they are demi-gods over the whelps. So you have no life like me and spent a shit load of time here. What do you want? A freaking medal? You think that makes you special? But my beef is not with this place.. most of the time this is a further escape.. no, my beef is with the people who make my air toxic to breathe. The ones who surround me here.

I haven't done anything to you, I would never hate you, steal from you, belittle you.. I do not understand why I cannot be shown the same.

So, if it pleases you, leave me alone.. or better yet keep what you have stolen from me and I'll fucking leave.



Yeah, I could be a hermit... without all the convenience this has to offer.. just me and my cave, away from all the shit that I have to wallow through every day although I avert my eyes and call it society.

The only thing I'd miss was my camera.



I think I'll go study the Three-Toed Sloth, there's a creature with the right attitude.



You can have the rest.

Well that's a pretty good question...

Are there any decent Beatles cover bands?



For that matter, are there any decent cover bands at all?



I mean besides Thunderhorse.

"If you're a squid, or a shrimp or a fish and you're having trouble breathing, that's going to affect your life."



My goodness, you don't say. Who knew breathing was so important.



Are people really so stupid that this must be said on the news? Is this really the most important part of an interview?



But then, the news people here are usually quite slow, perhaps this is all they could understand.

I was half watching a show last night called "Weird Or What?" and of course it caught my attention when it started talking about a situation with a Great White shark.

According to the program a surfer was bitten when a pod of dolphins seemingly came to his rescue, driving the shark away and giving him the chance he needed to survive. The show talked to some people about the debate over if dolphins, who appear self aware, can feel empathy for other creatures. Blah Blah.



Now, don't get me wrong, I'm glad the guy survived, especially after watching a program just before where it talked about how a young man was devoured right in front of his friends by a shark, but I've said for a long time that dolphins aren't as nice as people say they are, that they're lying behind their seemingly smiling faces.



So, during this entire story I'm saying things like "They were just screwing with the shark, denying it a meal, they don't care about what happened to that guy!." and "The dolphin - Nature's bully."



So, imagine my surprise when they talked to a man who thinks the dolphins attacked for a more sinister reason... they love violence.

I was getting excited, thinking I'm going to see more proof! (besides the act of "calf tossing", which actually kills the baby dolphin, and their practicing the cruel act on smaller porpoise for fun, killing those as well)



The program tells the story of how this man watched a group of dolphins savagely attack and kill a porpoise. Then as they go on to discuss how dolphins are responsible for so many deaths of humans each year, I'm really paying attention. They specifically report one case where a "seemingly friendly dolphin killed a drunk man after he tried to shove a stick into it's blow hole."



I'm totally deflated after that.



Um... that's the best example you could come up with? Seriously? THAT'S what you think proves our theory that dolphins are eviller than suspected?!



I'm pretty sure that if you tried to shove something into what is essentially an animal's nostril it's going to get violent no matter how gentle. Come on now, let's not be stupid! Really great journalism there, people.

Today my beautiful photo printer decided it had enough of the domineering manner my computer uses in issuing commands.

It's fragile psyche experienced a break down, printing haphazardly and chewing up photos before spitting them out.

My computer sat there smugly, sending order after order without pause, disregarding the crisis at the other end.



I had to separate the two and give them a stern talking to. Perhaps we need some team building exercises around here.

I don't like dumb dumb comedies, I like smart humor where the dumb is brilliant.

Last night I got around to watching The Slammin' Salmon. I thought it was Broken Lizard's best work since Super Troopers. Definitely hilarious. Smart funny, like a lot of their stuff... I mean I didn't care that much for Beerfest... it had it's moments, but I really enjoyed this one.

So I got to searching to see what they've got in the works, always interesting to know what's knocking about in people's minds.



Freeloaders, about 6 people living off a rock star and doing anything to keep him from selling the house they've been living in sounds pretty good.



And I hope they get around to making Ambulance Chasers, that definitely sounds like an idea with some promise.



I can always use some really good smart funny, I'm usually starving for it.

Twilight lovers seem to enjoy forcing their children to have a lifetime of sparkly and beastly jokes by naming them after characters in the books.



all those poor little Isabellas, Jacobs, and Cullens.

My obeisance to the hockey deity has apparently fallen on deaf ears rather quickly...



I can't watch.

And so on this day we once again kneel down on the ice and pray unto the hockey deity that the game be played well and the rivalry be spectacular, proven by fists if necessary. If it pleases, may the refs turn a blind eye in favor of the home team, unless our favorite team is on the road, then may the visitors do no wrong. Let the power plays rack up in our favor allowing us to swarm their defenses. May all their shots be weak and go wide while our shots on goal fly straight, true and strong. Give power beyond what is normal to our goaltender so that his reflexes are that beyond mortal men, while their goalie is soft and clumsy, unable to guard a shoebox. And as always, go Sharks.

Thistles are blooming, I love thistles. You'd say that's typical of me... having a fondness for something the straight minded go out of their way to destroy.



But I always ignore you and ask: How is it that thistles thrive by the road side but wouldn't grow in the planter I made especially for them?



There's a message in there somewhere.



Yesterday I found gravel roads and wild flowers, but the thistles were weathered or not yet fully bloomed, so I grinned to myself and took flower macros just for you, because I know how much you have a disdain for such things...



You know spring is your favorite season.

Don't argue.
