Whoa, I just got yer note from...whenever. Before I saw ya. Your visit was a wonderful surprise, btw. But most of all, I can't express my gratitude and amazement that you dig Jan Terri!! You're always so full of surprises, Bry-guy. It's enchanting! I mean, Melanie? Come on! You're too much. And yes, Jan Terri is amazing. I've seen like 3 vids on youtube. You missed the best show EVAH!! on Sat. night at the High Noon.

from jeanketeer :

Congrats on the awesome job--what is it? Congrats on Andrea, too. And Colombus--everyone I know who knows, says it's the best city in Ohio, big city with lots a cool shit. I like keeping tabs on ya, keep writing.

from jeanketeer :

You love Melanie? Awww, Brian! I love you. First, Shakespear's Sister, now, Melanie. We're here, we love uncool singers, get used to it!

from ingerrr :

congrats! you did it! hooray! true love never dies.

from proveit :

Wow, thanks. I'm actually terrible with names so I have no idea if I know you or not. It's probably a good bet though. I enjoy your diary too, so I should stop being lazy and finally add you to the favorites.

from jeanketeer :

Word.

from jeanketeer :

So I checked out Protestwarrior.com. Did you read the debriefing by the one high school student? I'll admit I was a little impressed by his tenacity and general attitude against blindly accepting the status quo; kind of reminded me of my youthful disdain for school authority and smug self-righteousness...That's the sad part, that these people, with a minor shift in ideology, could be great, effective activists. As it is, they're poseurs, co-opting a sort of grass-roots zeal, claiming victimhood. Anyway, I sort of infiltrated their site and joined the forums, kind of playing dumb and asking questions that might hopefully expose their hypocrisy (Yay free speech! Let's go protest protesters! And, yay freedom! Let's vote for the FMA!). At any rate, have you noticed how conservatives are now claiming that liberal critics are "spewing hate"? It's become part of their rhetoric. Criticism=hate. I also suggested they should have a link helping readers to enlist in the military.

from eatn :

Geezus, Bryan, get over it. you're wrong, accept it and move on. Seriously. wrongwrongwrongwrongwrong

from jeanketeer :

Mister Whizzlebee!! That is 2 cute!

from silleehed :

do you think andrew wk would be my boyfriend? and also, i hate george w. did you hear about the new leftist radio station called air america? listen in protest and watch your back.... xoxo

from jeanketeer :

Ok, now I'm sold on Andrea :) That rocks (that she rocks).

from eatn :

Omigod. I swear to god, it feels like the good people are all dying off and the shitty, scary ones are proliferating. Sniff.

from jeanketeer :

What?! What happened?!

from eatn :

Fuck. Yes.

from jeanketeer :

Right on about the Atkins, I feel the same way, backed up by countless exposures at Willalby's, and a new co-worker that seems to revel in "his" "maverick" approach to dieting. And it ain't working, but still he makes efforts to let people know he lives on meat and cheese, as if his fucking weight were the most important thing in the world, apart from his own overall health or that of the planet. You notice how adherents seem to never miss a chance to let people know? That's their guilty conscience pre-emptively challenging any criticism. It's like a cult. I rue the day that book ever hit the shelves at Wal-mart.

from ingerrr :

mayhaps I jumped the gun a little bit on that last comment. I was really wired at the time. that was my initial impression but upon second review, it's more clear that you were faulting a culture more than individuals. Go ahead Daddy and keep writing the stuff about the things.

from ingerrr :

The prob is that people make the automatic connection between someone's body size and the content of their character - i.e - being spoiled, indulgent, lazy etc . . . or immorally carnivorous . . .which are the symptoms, not the problem. (I couldn't resist adding my own two cents because I am so glad that you updated.)

from silleehed :

dood. i totally agree.

from scienceclass :

hey i'm a friend of shutupmom and jeanketeer and I uh... read your diary so why don't you go ahead and uh.. read my diary.

from eatn :

I got into my car this morning and it was actually WARM--that was the neatest physical feeling I've had in MONTHS. But ditto on all that--you're wonderful and always will be. Emoticon insert...here.

from im-so-pissed :

Panopticons rule.

from eatn :

Hey, was nice to see you. When I wasn't falling and breaking things. Nothing's changed, eh?

from im-so-pissed :

Equilibrium ruled.

from yours-truly :

hahaha okay mr. movie connoisseur extraordinaire, i guess i should have been more specific in that i didnt think the PLOT, CHARACTERS, or IDEAS in Equilibrium were anything to write home about... in fact i tried to ignore all of those things due to their anti-atlas shruggedness; however, in comparison to the matrix (especially the matrix 2 which i havent seen but heard terrible reviews of), equilibrium kicked ass in the following ways: christian bale (best bad good guy ever), the fight scenes (i mean, come on, dont tell me you didnt rewind at least one of those scenes), and the puppy. did i mention christian bale and the fight scenes? how about the puppy? so there. better now? ;) p.s. yes give me your copy! haha

from ingerrr :

If You Think I Even Care that you don't write real entries in your diary anymore ... well, i don't even care.

from yours-truly :

charlotte is like around 2 hours away from where we will be so if it is possible, we should hang out! and talk about how weird it is that the only time we've hung out in over a year ends up being in a different state hundreds of miles away from where we both live. rock.

from french-lick :

Bry! Hyan. wait a minute? Okay here i am holding true to my pinky swear. oww! (not oww as in i accidentally hurt myself, but oww as in i'm so cool its painful)

from eatn :

Um, yeah, JJ Jensen called me twice Friday afternoon. I ditched THEM...? But it was a good thing, because I got to have a really neat Friday night elsewhere. Best time in awhile. Thanks. Movie night? Elsewhere...? I'd be there. Totally. :) heh.

from cowboyhitman :

you made me laugh tho. i just chuckled, actually.

from cowboyhitman :

you suck.

from eatn :

Yeah, you are a complete dick. Dick.

from ingerrr :

you are very tricky! very tricky indeed.

from allegory :

oh bryan. you make me blush.

from allegory :

hello bryan. i hope you are doing well. maybe you could tell me about it sometime. i wouldn't even mind.

from yours-truly :

happy new job/town/life thing, and thank you for knowing enough about go kart records to acknowledge the coolness of us getting asked to be on it. thanks for the note bryan! :)

from eatn :

Weird. Today, out of nowhere, I started really thinking about you too. Miss you. too much to say to the point where there isn't one now. So...other stuff. Austin called from bumbler. lucky. The porch is built. it's fine. shared a 40 with Dec and others on it. I like beer lately. Mandy's birthday was also last night. She was very very very drunk. Adorable. Saw a sunrise, some lake and walked at dawn. It was pretty. I love some people you love. That's all I have. Okay.

from ingerrr :

you forgot "Larger than Life". bill murray and an elephant. it's for kids but you can watch it too.

from soldierstakt :

can i come too? even though i'm mean to you sometimes?
