Wrapped I deleted your note because notes are public and I don't want your note to be googled. Thanks for your feedback!
from zenayda :
I'm guessing that dream is some kind of anxiety about the world going to shit around you, and you want to help, but no one else seems to care.
from zenayda :
Oh, I understand about 90-minute commutes that rely on the timeliness of trains. That's why I don't work in Manhattan. I guess maybe now you know firsthand how I was feeling a couple of years ago, unfortunately. It does suck.
from zenayda :
Luck! LUCK!

You might want to wait to make sure the Idiot from Wasilla isn't in the White House. I put nothing past the stupidity of the American voter, and I'd hate to see you and the Scotsman suffer under her reign.
from wrappedinyou :
We might actually be in Milwaukee at the same time! I'm visiting with a friend June 17-20.
from idiot-milk :
Oh, oh, oh, Invincible is fantastic! Thanks for the recommendation, miss lady!
from pandionna :
Yep re: rock journalism. It's actually a lot like wine journalism. You have to know what's good for its genre. I don't particularly like Chardonnay, but I know a good one when I taste it.
from stellarrobot :
I know right? Living alone is sweet as. The best time in my life was when I lived alone. It was just beautiful.
from pandionna :
"What places are on your bucket list?" Oh, you know how to hurt a girl. =P
from stellarrobot :
Hello! I just found a note you left me and I'm feeling so effing rude. I would really love to read your diary. Also thank you for posting that link, it was so funny.
from pandionna :
It sounds like the good candidate might have been an introvert. Of course, a bullheaded person wouldn't appreciate that. Heaven forbid someone think an answer through before running the yap. My ex-boss didn't quite understand that. And look! She was bullheaded!
from pandionna :
Yes. If she's smart, she won't mess with it. If she's an idiot, she might be related to my ex-boss.
from pandionna :
Yeah. No. ONE rat-assed crazy boss was enough for me to never want another boss again. I can't imagine having dealt with several. Life is indeed too short for that crap.
from idiot-milk :
It's a phase, and he'll definitely grow out of it. My family wasn't even remotely religious, and I had my own little "rebellion" in junior high and the first few years of high school. I made friends with some uber-Christians, and not only did I go to church with them, I went to youth retreats and conferences, and I even joined the church Bible Quiz team (Placed 2nd place nationally in `86, thank you very much). But then I discovered weed and boys, and I got better. By my freshman year in college I had completely abandoned the whole born again gig. So have faith, be patient, and know that he'll come back to the heathen fold.

Re health care reform: That's pretty much what Howard Dean said. Howard Dean... Memmmmoriessss...

Ah, yes. The kakapo. I love that bird.
from idiot-milk :
You love Morphine, right? I thought you might find this interesting: http://www.joshuabudich.com/store/
from pandionna :
Wow, that's certainly an explanation for their world view. Me? I just think they're self-absorbed assholes.
from pandionna :
Hi, I saw you were online and decided to spam the shit out of your notes. Oh, wait, we're talking about screaming kids on planes. I would have said something to the flight attendants, and if they didn't do something about it, I would have said something to the parents. That is absolutely inappropriate and those children should have been hushed.
from xxholding-on :
hey i saw you were online and i really wanted the vote/review from diaryland members towards an art contest i joined. It's a coach marketing contest and i need as many votes as i can get! I'm already in 13th out of 2700, please help me out! http://www.brickfish.com/Pages/PhotosAlbums/PhotoView.aspx?picid=975395_34070543&pid=2767347&scid=452

Heh, you know, chimps outpace human babies in the first several years of life in terms of intellectual development. (Too bad Bush never caught up. Hey, I can still make Bush jokes if I want!)
from pandionna :
Happiness in one's career is such a wonderful thing. You deserve it, chica! And say hello to those mingos for me! Yay!
from arifoxhawk :
I am SO very happy for you!!!
from wrappedinyou :
YAY!!!! I'm so excited for you! Go kick some zoo ass!
from pandionna :
Congratulations! Yay!!!!
from idiot-milk :
Huzzah! Congratulations, miss lady!
from pandionna :
Honey, read about Obama repealing, undoing, and otherwise obliterating Bush policies. Stem cells. Iraq. Protecting reproductive rights. The environment. Forward thinking is much better. And? I am a good payer. If Bank of America goes broke, it won't be because of me. And? I suppose I'm not worried about losing my life savings because I don't have any. Once a starving writer, always a starving writer. Never had money, never will.
from pandionna :
W00T!
from wrappedinyou :
I anxiously click over to your diary every day in hopes of some good news about the job interviews. I'm crossing my fingers for you! Good luck on your second interview!
from pandionna :
You know, I was wondering about that yesterday after clicking through her site. "What does Ms. Lizard think about this?" I do agree with her on a lot of things, but I also feel she comes off as a bit of a man-hater at times, and that sometimes she just looks for things to be offended by. She did say something I live by though: When you're your own person, you don't care what men sense about you. Very true.
from strixia :
Gives new meaning to the phrase Downward Dog.
from strixia :
Birds, too. But you knew that.
from strixia :
Yep. But it's no different than what goes on here. Been dealing with that for well over a year now.
from strixia :
Ah, SHIT.
from strixia :
I've got all kinds of body parts crossed for you, chica. Happy Thanksgiving!
from curiouoso :
Well Obama won, I'd say we won cause I believe you're with us, but I won't presume. Maybe we can start repairing our relations with everyone else in the world with dialog and good intentions imnstead of threats and stupidity! I'm sure you'll hear lots of comments from your nieghbors in the next few days. Yours, Curiouoso*
from wrappedinyou :
Glad to hear you're not having too much trouble recovering from the surgery and you're still (sort of) living it up across the Atlantic. Good luck with the visa/job situation!
from konbu :
Yeah I really dug that guy rapping in German. Then Friday night I went out to see my friends' band open for a couple of rap-y kind of bands, and secretly enjoyed that too!
from kimbarley :
It has been a VERY long time since I visited d-land, of which I'm looking to be in touch with Christine aka Squirrelx or Xtine. Do you happen to know how to reach her? Hopefully so. Thank you in advance. Kim
from pandionna :
How absolutely wonderful that your parents will be there! Such cool people, they. And? If you do make that move for his job, blog like hell. Seriously. I love the way you present faraway places. Your writing style travels well!
from strixia :
W00T!
from strixia :
That would be one helluva thing to get deported for, chica. Heh. But hey, surely it wasn't "the worst toilet in Scotland." Heh, a little Trainspotting humor there.
from pandionna :
Lovely home! I'm so happy for you, chica. You really just sound excited and content and joyful.
from wvprincess :
I checked out the pictures!! The area where you live is absolutely beautiful..and you both look so happy!! I'm glad you didn't have much problems once you arrived in the UK! I was so glad that you updated...hope to hear more soon!
from pandionna :
"Goodbye guestroom." *sniff* Okay, enough of that mushy crap. I can't wait to hear more about everything! Geez, girl, I still can't believe it.
from pandionna :
Sending you a Percocet. Nice sleeeep.
from konbu :
Maybe a hot toddy is in order.
from wrappedinyou :
I'm so happy for you! It's amazing how everything is working out for you!
from pandionna :
Wow...just, WOW! I am beyond thrilled for you, chica. It really is something, the Scotsman, the move, everything. I wish you much love and joy. And you know I'll be dragging the Yoga Girl out there to visit.
from curiouoso :
Hey don't feel bad. When I was about 7 I lit an old Christmas tree on fire in a vacant lot. Whebn it really took off smoke was everywhere and the grass caught fire. I took off like a scared rabbit only to be caught by a teenager down the road. He took me home and turned me over to my parents (instead of the fire dept. busy stopping the fire from burning down San Francisco Airport). Like you, this is merely a figment of my imagination and I still have bruises on my butt to prove it! Curiouoso*

Awwww. Where's the damn Fiddler when you need him for the roof?

DITTO on the sentiments below! My GOD, I just realized I had your logon info in and OLD OLD email and thank god I never throw anything away. CONGRATS!!
from celticsuncat :
So I just caught up on the last month's worth of your entries and HOLY SHIT, congratulations! Also, sorry about the crappy paint.
from wvprincess :
I hate that brand of paint too! I use olympia now! Works great...just one coat!! ~Rachel
from monkey-king :
Crowd shots of a bad religion concert used instead of Youth Brigade. The roadie abandoning the bus and going to the bus station was shot back in LA, three months after everybody got back. Same with one of the Stern brothers shivering and talking about how they're all cold and hungry. Halfway through, where Mike Ness is strumming his guitar and saying he's working on the song? Actually the Dischord house at the end of the tour and the song was completed. Lame kids who said they were practicing stage diving by jumping off the diving board into the swimming pool were recruited by the filmmaker and taken to his fathers house. Oh, and the creepy death rock artist? The only reason she was in that was because the filmmakers were infatuated with her. It's all pretty funny. Netflix has it, if you're signed up on that corporate monopoly that's destroying mom and pop stores.
from monkey-king :
Hey, I sent you a myspace message asking for the password, but you've jumped ship. Still writing? Gimmie gimmie gimmie. Speaking of which, I saw your listing for Another State of Mind, which I've seen many times and loved. Well, I got it again so I could hear the commentary (there are three tracks, one with Mike Ness and the guitarist from the Vandals, another with the Stern brothers, and finally with the filmmakers) and it turns out the film is about 80% fake.
from katlefiya :
Wow, it's like some crazy fairy tale! But not a cheesy-ass disney fairy tale, a quirky awesome tank girl fairy tale! Congratulations, Madame Lizard, you deserve the best in happiness.
from adelphi :
You made an update! But I forgot your username and password...I'd love it if you'd send that to me again. sarah dot francesca at gmail.
from wvprincess :
Wow...congratulations!!! I'm so happy for you..I hope that you will keep updating!!
from curiouoso :
Wow, That's fantastic. Scotland is so cool! Good luck to ya, but don't quit updating now that I just got your PW again! Curiouoso*

Hi! I'm Vicki. I'm a friend of Tia's. I'm looking for some new reads (since the bastids here at the office have locked down MySpace) and I hear you're a good'un. If you're comfortable sharing the UN/PW, I'd love to get in (and I'll send you mine too, although lately, nothing all that interesting is happening...sigh).

from idiot-milk :
I meant to reply to your note ages ago, but, well, I suck. At any rate... The truth of the matter is that I've had the red pill in my sweaty fist for ages, but it was Al Gore who crammed it down my throat. I both love and hate him for it. On the one hand, there are things I can do to help, and I am bound and determined to do everything I can. On the other hand, it was kind of nice to keep my head in the sand and pretend that everything is just fine. Le sigh. Stupid red pill.

Hey chica - what happened to you at the other place? It's saying that you don't exist...

Political burnout is inevitable, especially considering the past 4 years. It's OK to take a break now and then.
from zonoria :
Yeah, your family seems really cool. Friendly, but laid back, and respectful of your decisions in life. You know how it is with some of mine, with the judging and the feuding and so on. I'm just thankful for J, because without her, I'd never be able to handle the drama with the other two. Of course, my father was a drama king, but you know that whole story, too. Sigh...

Interesting class. Another blog friend of mine seems to have become a part of it as well.

Don't tell anybody, but I cried, too. What a great finale, though. I love excellence in **anything**, and that was excellent.
from caffeinegeek :
The news just gets scarier every day. People need to realize what's going on here. You're right it's not just about being anti-choice. They want to control how everyone lives and dies. Thanks for brining this to our attention.
from jt76 :
Here is where I find the most blatant hypocrisy in the arguments these bible thumpers use: According to them, removal of life support is tantamount to suicide or murder. Yet, if someone is injured or sick to the point that doctors' aren't able to sustain their life, its because God decided it was time for them to go. If God is truly the one who decides when we die, aren't the doctors who artifically keep people alive going against God's will? Fifty years ago, if this guy sustained those kinds of injuries, he'd be dead- doctors wouldn't have been able to help him. So would they be guilty of murder simply because they lacked the tools to help him? These people never stop to think that simply because we CAN do something, doesn't mean that we SHOULD.
from saru-san :
So when Peggy Hamill of Pro-Life Wisconsin says that Sgt. Simon was a victim of international terrorism, is she trying to say that the presence of our soldiers in Iraq constitutes terrorism? Because if she's saying that he was blown up by terrorists, that's not accurate. I mean, we're at war, right? So that means his death was caused by enemy combatants, not by terrorists. Somebody should remove Peggy Hamill's feeding tube. Or just sew her mouth shut.
from dishington :
rhumba: Found you after a long trek from dailykos. Love your style. I joined diaryland just to be near you. I was just in Wisconsin (Minoqua), one of my favorite places on the planet. I'm busily getting to know you better. Thanks for the respite, now it's back to the front. SUPPORT CINDY!!!
from jt76 :
My jaw was actually hanging open reading that. I know everyone has their own personal bias, liberals included. However, that man uses some of the most repugnant, obtuse arguments I've heard in my life. I think it would be much easier to argue that those of us who are vehemently OPPOSED to this charade are the ones who seriously 'support our troops'. In addition, I really don't think anyone who signs up for military service would have any real problem fighting in a war they believed in, but that of course is not the case right now.
from saru-san :
Your entry about Dennis Prager? Perfect. Absolutely perfect. I would like to support the troops... by sending THAT asshole over to them!
from jt76 :
Reading your last entry on the boobie banners reminded me of something I wrote a while back regarding the same issue... http://jt76.diaryland.com/050301_54.html
from caffeinegeek :
The tit banners are nothing short of strange, especiallty since Diaryland is like 80% female.

Happy Birthday

Oh how I hope you're right about Rove. I'm on pins and needles waiting to see if this does in fact stick. Called my Senators, called my rep, hopefully it will have some effect.

I tried to sign your guestbook..but it didn't seem to want to work for me.. anyway..Thanks for putting up the link to the Gorillaz website..I just spent an hour shooting things..it was great..I got 51 of the inflatables..
from jt76 :
I am much more lamentful over Sandra Day O'Connor's resignation than the Valerie Plame debacle. Since Rhenquist is sure to follow suite, Bush will get TWO judges onto the Supreme Court. Women, get your abortions now while you still can! Supplies are limited!
from goldieknox03 :
well I actually clicked to add an entry, but lookie at the distracting banner. I HAD to click. So good times. YOur a funny man. and you know i love a good Democrat!:)
from chaosbean :
great banners. even better entries. have a good one.
from jilllybean22 :
in love with your Sifl & Olly banner...
from jt76 :
I just refinanced my house as well, but I had the opposite concern as you- I was worried the appraised value would come in too high. They are going to base your refinancing on the appraised value, so the higher the appraisal, the more money you're going to owe them. And if they did inflate the appraisal (which has been happening a lot recently due to the housing boom) if and when you try and sell, there is a chance you won't get as much as what you're paying towards your mortgage- (especially if the housing bubble pops) so in short, you'd be losing money.
from caffeinegeek :
OMG you are so right abotu Tom Cruise. What a complete fuckwad.
from adelphi :
Hey, I know you were having some trouble with your archives a while back, and I just noticed I am too. All my entries from before January 2003 show up on my older page but only have a few weird code things about date and time when I click on the links. Is this the problem you had? I checked the help section and read the bit in red on archive issues. The problem is, I'm very technologically illiterate. I have no clue what I'm supposed to do. Can you help me? You can leave me a note or if you'd prefer to email me, just let me know.
from jt76 :
I figured you'd have something to say about Ratzinger. In some ways, I'm actually glad. While admirable in a sad, disturbing sort of way, The Catholic Church's refusal to bend in the wake of social liberalism is going to be its downfall. I like to compare it to palm trees. When a hurricane hits, palms are usually the only ones left standing because they bend with the wind. Other trees that stand ridged in the face of such a powerful force end up being uprooted or broken. By taking such a hard-line stance on issues that most people in the world (incuding most catholics) agree with, they are only hastening their demise. And in my humble opinion, that would be a very, very good thing.
from celticsuncat :
Ratzinger has said that the accusations of sexual abuse by priests are nothing more than a conspiracy to ruin the church. Nice, hmm? Oh, and there's much suspicion that the brand-new Pope was the brains behind the old Pope for quite awhile before JP II's passing. The suspicion is that as the Parkinson's got worse, Ratzinger was just Weekend-at-Bernies-ing JP around but making all the decisions for him. Love-ly.
from djc360 :
can you start talking about bush again? i think you're cuter that way :D
from caffeinegeek :
I'm so glad that I'm not the only one who feels this way about the Pope's passing. Also, I'm sick of seeing pictures of his corpse every day. EEEEEWWWWW! There. I feel better now. Thanks.
from participant :
I like your style of cautiousness. When I meet a potential guy for the first time I'm like "what ligature marks?"
from caffeinegeek :
I saw an amazing exhibit of Degas in Philly last year. It included many of his sculptures that seem to be at the MAM exhibit. I even got a kitchy magnet made from sketches of him that changes poses when you open the fridge. And no, knowing who Degas is does not make you a snob. Geez! That stuff should be common freaking knowledge.
from littlelloyd :
Wow, how's that for no line breaks. YIKES!
from littlelloyd :
Underground Hip Hop Eh?! Well, now were talking! Blackalicious is a must browse. Both albums have a great flow all the way through. DJ Abilities and Rhymesayers Entertainment (http://www.rhymesayers.com/) are pretty much where it�s at as far as I�m concerened. They are local (Minneapolis) and host their own show on our community supported public radio station KFAI (kfai.org) The last two shows are archived online, you can listen with RealAudio. The archive page is http://www.kfai.org/kfai2/audarch.htm. The Show is RSE Radio, down towards the bottom. Atmosphere is pretty right on right on as well. Your doing well with MF Doom and the new Aesop Rock. Hmmmmm, Jay-Z, Floetry, Jurrasic 5, DJ Danger Mouse, DJ Shadow, all worth running through your headphones... Other than that, I would not suppose to be any sort of expert. RealRhapsody has a decent selection in their library though. Well worth the $10 month fee to browse around and check it all out.
from hel :
Allow me to suggest over the counter sleeping pills, available at pretty much any drug store or grocery store. Based on personal experience, you can safely take double the listed dose. BUt if you're having such an ongoing problem with insomnia, you might want to talk to a doctor, see if something that can be dealt with is the cause.
from awittykitty :
I have too many phobias to list but my main ones are spiders, people spying on me, clowns (my mother used to paint them when I was a kid, and we had them all over the house and they used to eek me out), germs, touching anything sticky, people touching me without permission, old men, Santa Claus, oysters. I have a lot of them. (grin).

from jt76 :
Yeah, I feel the same way. But I expect nothing less from him- he's an assclown. What I found ever more disturbing however was that the RNC is not covering the cost of the inauguration. When DC asked how the hell they are suppose to pay for all of it, the Bush Team casually said, "Just use the money from your Homeland Security budget." I think that speaks volumes on how seriously they actually take their jobs.
from hel :
If your hairdresser is not listening to you about how you want your hair cut, she sinned against you first. The hairdresser/patron bond is only sacred so long as both parties honor their side of it. Her side is, she cuts your hair well, yours is, you don't see other hairdressers. One side being broken invalidates the other. *smile*

What I forgot to say the last time: I lived in Milwaukee from May 2003 to October 2004... and I pretty much just go around in the devil makeup 24/7. Okay, not. But I keep all non-devil photos on another site (www.saru-san.com)
from saru-san :
I didn't meet a lot of people when I lived there, which was only for about a year before moving to Dallas (Milwaukee is much better!), so I'm pretty sure I didn't know you. But reading your diary? I wish I did!
from saru-san :
How is it that I lived in Milwaukee for a year and didn't know you? Every time I read your diary, the "hey! me too!" part of my brain becomes overstimulated, and I have to self-medicate (with old 1970s reruns) until the voices die down. Even the details of this last entry... like, watching the Rockford Files, could be ripped from life. And well-adjusted? Well-adjusted LIKE A FOX! Wow.

from jt76 :
LOL. No, you're not alone. When I read things like that I want to puke twice and then shit in the mouth of the person who sent it to me.
from buddhababy :
Thanks for catching my banner typo!!
from jt76 :
Well, that is what I was getting at by saying I think he has a better shot than Hillary, if that says anything. Point being, I think we'd have better luck finding a three legged ballarina than electing a black president. And if Obama has a better shot than Hillary (and I think he does), that says volumes about the distaste a lot of people have towards her.
from jt76 :
You're completely right, of course. If they nominate her in '08, then we've already lost. I don't see it happening, though. I think Barak Obama has a better shot at the white house than Hillary does, if that says anything.

holy shit is right. Did you read the op-ed piece in the Times from David Brooks? he was talking about what Bush would do to the CIA because of all the leaks. Saying Bush can no longer 'trust' the agency to help him govern effectively. I wrote a letter to the times saying, perhaps the CIA was leaking all of this because they no longer feel they can 'trust' bush to actually use the intelligence they give him. Scary scary shit.

I already added to your guestbook, but there was a typo (WHICH I HATE!), so I am readdressing the BASEBALL thing here: If the Red Sox beat the Yankees, and the Houston Astros beat whoever they're playing, then it will be Massachusetts vs. Texas in the Big Game of Baseball. If the Astros win, then Bush automatically becomes president, and if the Red Sox win, then Bush has to steal home. Or something like that.

I am beginning to think that Sinclair won't be able to pull this off. What they are doing is so blatently partisan that even the FCC has to recognize it.

I have already checked to see if any of the local stations in my area are owned by Sinclair (they're not)- but if they were, I think I'd tear that particular number off of my remote and never use it again.

Your musings on the polls mirror my own opinions on the subject.

As a one-time fag hag, I can say with utmost certainty that Mrs. Jim McCreevy and the gang KNEW he was gay, and is probably very supportive to him.

from pandionna :
That dog-shit stuff is a health hazard, both for people and for dogs. In fact, you handled it much better than I would have. See, I would have called the ASPCA a long time ago.

P.S. If you REALLY want to impress your local wine shop and sound like a wine snob so they don't sell you the rot-gut thinking you dont know any better, ask them for their "cheap and cheerfuls." That's what folks in the biz call inexpensive wines that are ready to drink now and aren't very complex.
from pandionna :
It's hard to find a decent red wine for that price. There is one called "Reds" that is nice, though. Ask for "Reds California Table Wine," and if the wine guy has any knowledge whatsoever, he'll take you to it. White, however, is easy. Good values come from Argentina, Chile, New Zealand, and Australia. Try Nobilo Sauvignon Blanc (that was one of my wedding wines). Avoid California, though, especially the chardonnay. It's by and large grossly overoaked and overpriced. I can hit the huz up for suggestions tonight. After all, he is a wine guy.
from roxyelliot :
Il Bastardo is a cheap feisty red that's great for parties. It sells for about $8 a bottle in CT. If you're looking for someone slightly nicer try a California Merlot, which should make all the red wine enthusiasts happy.

I am sorry that you continue to misconstrue my comments in your guestbook as attacks or insults. They are intended as neither. I will not bother you again.
from aaronorear :
And who backs up your friend's claim that they're married? What endorsement, what authority does that marriage carry if not that of the government? They have that marriage license, no matter what they wore or did to celebrate the fact. It's all well and good to say that marriage is between two people and that their decision to stay married is what matters, but there's a very human need to apply to some body to acknowledge the fact or it looses meaning. What's the point of saying you're "married" when the only blessing you have for that notion is a guy in an Elvis suit? And no, having the government recognize the event doesn't diminish the spiritual...in fact it puts the government at the service of the couple, assuring them that their choice carries the authority of the state. I am really arguing in the atheist's corner here. A stronger position for a Christian might be to go along with your idea and then stake out marriage as the property of the church. But marriage pre-dates the church. Its roots are in government. Also, I disagree with your assertion that homosexual couples are merely fighting for the principle of the thing. There's something intangible yet highly important about saying "we're married." Yes, full and equal status might be the words spoken to enact change, but that's because the battleground is the constitution and those are the terms by which that document operates. But in the stories of gay couples recently wed in Canada there was one recurring theme..."We're finally married. It feels so good to say that." Many of these were American couples who were going back home where the marriage would not be recognized and who could have gotten civil union status in Vermont (with less travelling trouble) and then had whatever ceremony they wanted in a back yard, beach house or whatever. But they went to Canada because they didn't want to be married in theory...they wanted an official body to recognize the fact.
from aaronorear :
You're assuming that if I don't agree with you I must not understand you, which is to assume that you are inherently "right." I hear what you're saying. What I'm saying is that limiting the government's role to simply issuing civil unions is asking everyone to accept less. Why would you give everyone less? Fine, you may not think that government recognition and institution of marriage is important...you are obviously in the minority, otherwise there would be no push for gay marriage and there would be no resistance to it, either. Homosexual couples would shoot for civil unions and probably win it..certainly with a lot less fuss than is being raised over marriage. People are fighting over the issue because it means something to them...and I'd rather keep fighting for the victory than abandon the field altogether. And please don't assume that you know how I understand marriage. I have been married, and was so when my religious/philosophical views were far more consistent with yours. I had no confusion about the role of religion in my life then - there was none. That does not mean that I would have automatically leapt at the chance to reduce the most powerful agency in anyone's practical life - the government - to the role of bean-counter in the most important (though ultimately doomed) decision I made.
from aaronorear :
Many do...more don't. Most people want to be married, not certified which sounds like graduating a night class in VCR repair.
from aaronorear :
But currently a goverment official, a justice, is required for those services...or a ship's captain, I suppose.
from nightdragon :
You said: "That last was kind of a tweak, and I'm sorry. Couldn't resist." That's OK, I don't mind. We tweak each other, it's to be expected. =} Have a good weekend.
from roxyelliot :
I've sort of come to the same conclusion about Civil Unions for all. Civil Marriage and Spirtual marriage are not the same thing, certainly never have been. They exist for different reasons, and have different goals. Why the religious right wants government to legislate this is betyond me. They're usually all about keeping "Big Brother" out of their personal lives.

The money issue is a long story, one which I'm not going to go into now because I'm hoping that it will get resolved and I won't be losing that money.

from nightdragon :
You're making the unfortunate mistake of thinking I'm singling you out. That was not my intent. Nor did I say one single thing about Bush. My point was, you can disagree with what the American state is doing, but to put your fellow countrymen down, even if they're in favor of something or someone you're not, is plain wrong. Put it this way: If Kerry becomes president, and I disagree with him over something -- and, boy, are the possibilities for that ever ripe and overflowing -- then I will take my bitching out on him, not the country who elected him. And if he entered a war I would oppose -- Liberia was one such good example -- then I would still stand by the military and try to see the positive behind the war effort.

My Dad legally doesn't have a leg to stand on with anyone. He really didn't "evict" me in the legal sense; what he did was tell me to leave and my Uncle who's not well was too frightened of my Dad to say anything. Mofo and I were so fed up with putting up with my Dad's crap that we decided not to fight him, and just leave. Within two weeks we found a Condo to buy, and we're closing on it on Tuesday. No one was willing to take my father's keys away or tell him to fuck off, so I didn't want to have him anywhere near where I live so that he could be vindictive and spiteful. I'm better off with my new home, but that doesn't make what he did to me right. I feel better knowing that I'm next in line--over him--to inherit the house. And believe me, if that day comes and he's living there, you can bet your fucking ass he's getting the boot.

from idiot-milk :
Car mechanics are bastards. All bastards. I had similar problems with Tuffy. At Tuffy, they took the wheels off of my car, told me I needed all new brake pads, all new rotors, all new EVERYTHING and it would cost me around $800. I said no thanks, and would they please put my car back together? They said, no really, you NEED IT. We can't let you leave without doing this work TODAY. I said NO THANKS, and would you PLEASE put my car back together? They said no REALLY, we CAN'T. You MUST get the work done TODAY. And then they sent out the assistant manager to "talk" to me (and by "talk" to me, I mean condescend to me and badger me). And I said ONCE AGAIN, PLEASE put my car back together RIGHT FUCKING NOW. And THEN they got the STORE MANAGER to "talk" to me. And I said PUT MY GODDAMN CAR BACK TOGETHER RIGHT FUCKING NOW OR YOU'RE ALL GOING TO BE SORRIER THAN YOU HAVE EVER BEEN IN YOUR ENTIRE FUCKING LIVES. And they finally DID put my car back together, and then I went somewhere else to have them look at my car. They told me I only needed a couple of pads replaced, and all would be dandy. A couple of pads for less than $200. SO, and this is the fun part, I took the written estimate given to me by the Tuffy fuckheads, and I took the written estimate given to me by the other garage (I always get them to put in writing what they feel needs to be done), and I sent them to both the Better Business Bureau AND the State Attorney general and filed a complaint about Tuffy. I received letters from the BBB and the AG saying that they would look into it for me. And you know what? THEY DID! Because a couple of weeks later I got a letter from some dork at Tuffy corporate apologizing PROFUSELY, promising that that sort of thing would NEVER happen in a Tuffy garage again, and offering all manner of discounts should I decide to use their garage again. I won't, of course, but I like to think that my actions caused some fairly serious sweating on the parts of certain shady mechanic types and maybe will prevent other ladies from being harassed in that manner. Anyway, sorry for the longass note, but I wanted to commiserate and share my own story of mechanic woe. Carry on, hotstuff.

(I tried to send this before to your guestbook, but it gave me the famous/infamous "guestbook error that isn't really your fault but the entry's going to disappear anyway." So if this turns out to be a duplicate, my apologies.) Anyway, this was an actual conversation. We were discussing the painting "The Last Supper" and how it is the first example of artwork designed specifically to draw one's gaze to the center of the canvas, and this led to the following conversation, somehow. Person 1: "He invented the helicopter, you know." Person 2: "Who? Christ?" Person 3: "No, DaVinci." Person 2: "Too bad. If it'd been Christ, He could've gotten away."

HA! What a dork. Well, maybe he's got amnesia, or some shit. This is him and his family at his sister's wedding, http://www.jenville.com/wedding/formal-niederst.html. All I know is that in highschool he went by the name Bill Niederst, and at some point after changed it to Liam Lynch. Probably doesn't want to admit that, or whatever. People are weird.
from idiot-milk :
Bill Niederst. I have no idea when he started that whole Liam thing. I haven't talked to him pretty much since highschool. And yes, I would totally agree about the genius thing. That boy is funny as all fucking hell. P.S. I, however, am NOT a genius as I just posted this first to my OWN fucking notes. Goddamnit.
from idiot-milk :
Pertinent to nothing, I went to highschool with the guy who created Sifl and Olly. I think he goes by Liam Lynch now, though that's not his real name. His sister was my sister's best friend in school, and I used to be in art class with him. My mom thought it was so great that someone she knew had a television show, she used to watch Sifl and Olly all the goddamn time. To this day she'll still make references to Precious Roy and hooker monkeys.

Holy shit. I have HUGE floppy earlobes! That must be how I got this ear infection! My god! I had no idea! Damn you, stupid floppy ears! Damn you straight to hell! Although, just to keep the record straight, it's NOT...most definitely NOT...a yeast infection.

Of course you are totally right about renter's insurance, yet my wholly-unrealistic take on it is that in some strange way, I might find having all my stuff burn somewhat liberating. I don't have a whole lot of stuff anyway, probably owing to my being kind of a packrat in nature -- can't allow myself to keep stuff, because I would just keep everything. And you know, "You don't own your posessions, they own you." But nonetheless, losing any change of clothes and ... I dunno, money/official paperwork and that kind of stuff would really be just a tad inconvenient. Oh, and that rather sucks about BadAssDude's last fight -- but yeah, much safer in the long run that he's not doing it anymore. Peace.

about your note--(sorry for the late reply)--true, Dean isn't a liberal, it's just that he's trying to cast himself as one and he seems to be the democrat voted most likely to succeed, so I meant let's call his bluff and make him adopt some green-esque liberal elements to his platform... I probably didn't vocalize that right, but my entries are usually composed on the fly in a maximum ten-minute span as I'm using the public library computer and have that annoying "you have five minutes left, save what you're working on and get the hell out" pop-up constantly interrupting me...
from pandionna :
I pretty much concur with all of your impressions. Although I did laugh a bit at the "HELLO?" Put it to you this way, if Dean did something like that, I would have cracked up, so I have to be fair. And what is up with these guestbooks?!?!? BLARGH!
from aaronorear :
Watership Dow? Is that the story of a group of rabbits that trade stocks on Wall Street, or is my "N" key a bit sticky?
from aaronorear :
No, I had rehearsal last night. I wish I'd been there, as I agree with your ideas and energy. Judging by the website and text-messages the campaign seems to be slowing a bit...I've not seen any info on times for tonight's debate - they ought to have it front and centre, broken down by time zone to make seeing Dean as easy as possible...not to mention his appearance on CNN that wasn't announced until he was actually on screen. A website is an instant communication device, changeable on the minute, and it should be used as such. When Dean farts there should be an entry online. They need to get the word out better and remember that we're not just passively watching, we're participating. Which location did you go to, by the way? If I do make it some time (I won't be able to attend in October either...I'll be in Toronto) I hope to see you there...I'm deeply curious to meet the raging Rumblelizard. I live pretty much dead-centre between the last two locations. And I just saw Watership Dow on your favourites...I loved that book as a child - still do - and read it perhaps 10 times in one summer.

Obviously, I agree with everything you said in your note. I guess for some reason this particular case has really bothered me. It's probably because Vail is a short drive from my town and I know people from the area. The issue strikes close to home for me. I rarely get into debates about anything but I really felt like pushing the issue on this one.

Thank you for consistenly stimulatin' my brain and my conscience.

Damn! The guestbook just lost my entry! That makes me mad! Grrr! Anyway, what I was saying is that the whole Iraq war makes me want to run around screaming at people to pull their heads out of their asses, but that's pretty pointless. Bush is such ha fuck up when it comes to diplomacy and affairs of state. Just look at what's going on in Liberia and Iran. I had an interesting debate this morning with porktornado about the Kobe Bryant scandal. I was wondering what your take on the issue is. If you would like to see the entire context of our debate go to his guestbook. It's all in there.

Loved your 'impeach the shrub' banner. I'm from Texas, so I've been yelling anti-Bush things since I was 12 and the moron was elected as governor. Hello people! If you want to see where America is going, look at Texas. Massive budget deficits thanks to Bush's innovative tax cuts using retarded math, education down the toilet, no health insurance for children, pollution everywhere, etc. The Democrats in the Texas State Legislature actually fled the state so they could filibuster a new law that would put the repubs in power by re-drawing the precinct lines. Go TX Demos! Anywho, now I live in NY state and am constantly fighting against Pataki. I am all for kicking Bush to the curb before he can do any more damage. Oh, and, all politics aside, congrats on your new puppy!

I truly think you should try to dognap Stella. It seems obvious that her owners aren't caring for her very well, if at all, and that you would be a much better caretaker for the little fuzzy one.

Hey Lizzy. I don't get to your journal enough. I absolutely loved this last entry. Seriously.
from djc360 :
hey rumblelizard, i just want to make another comment. i know feminists, and i feel deeply for the cause, and i don't think i've ever met any one who thought that the men of history should be banned from textbooks and such. they merely think that the role of women also deserves a mention, and may have been unfairly sidelined by "official" history. i think the impression that you have of feminists is just one in the popular imagination, and bolstered by people who want to discredit the movement. in reality, it's very different. although i do have to admit that some feminists can be bitchy, they are by no means man-hating and in reality, a lot of feminists are some of the nicest, most thoughtful people i know. i think you just bought into an image that is hardly representative of a group, and you're probably contributing to its existence by bringing it up and not discrediting it. that's all. oh, and i know what you mean by "radical" feminists too, and still, they're not man-hating, trust me. a small minority of them might be, but again, that's hardly representative and it's only what poeple want to see. it's also hard to say what's "radical" anymore though... it seems to change... there's this thing called "postfeminism" nowadays, which seems to be a big enough topic for entire textbooks to be dedicated to it. i don't claim to know anyting about it. one more thing! your entry reminded me of a short blurb i wrote in my own diary about benevolent sexism... it's a May 4 entry with "benevolent sexism" in the title, but you'll have to scroll downt he page to find it cause i use a weblog format now. feel free to check it out if you'd like. love your entries. love your banners. cheers!!

hey girl. i agree that iraq is the lesser of two evils and that we should of gone for korea if we had to go for anyone, but i am not the president. i just have to follow his orders. i tried to leave a message in your guest book, but for some reason my pc/net were being a pain...so i decided to leave one here. love reading your stuff. ~jen
from brer-rappit :
good-god-man-good-banner. i enjoyed your pages alot. keep rockin' and if your ever in vegas, look me up we will raise the dead with punk on the banjo. ZooT
from williamtells :
The banner is good. As is the diary.

Hmm. pets are expensive. that dog is fucking cute. Uh. I would love to figure up what my grandmother spend son pet food feeding my mutt. (he can't live with me) :(
from daoinesidhe :
OF COURSE YOU ARE WELCOME IF YOU COME IN GREECE FOR VACATION AT MY HOUSE.I'LL BE GLAD TO MEET YOU PERSONALLY.GOOD NIGHT FOR NOW.
from daoinesidhe :
HELLO. BY SAYIN I WILL HIT HIM I DID NOT MEAN IT FOR REAL.IT IS A GREEK EXPRESSION .YOU ARE RIGHT I ALSO RESPECT THE OPINION THAT WHEN YOU PROTEST ABOUT SOMETHING SO SACRED YOU SHOULD PROTEST PEACEFULLY AND MAKE YOUR ACTION SYMBOLIC.DO NOT WORRY MY FRIEND ,I JUST WISH YOU COULD MEET ME PERSONALLY TO SEE THAT I AM A VERY QUIET KIND OF MAN.THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR ADVICE.AS LONG AS WE SEND EACH OTHER NOTES I FIND OUT THAT YOU ARE A VERY GENTLE PERSON.THANK YOU.
from veggiedog :
buddy is really firkin' cute..i dunno, rumblelizard. i could say that you already have a dog, and your attention would be split, thus making it unfair for your present canine love. however, you only live once, BUDDY will only live once, and you might as well make it an extraordinary life for him. there's nothing wrong with lotsa cute doggies licking your face!
from thebrenda :
i bought thedarko on dvd this weekend. love that shit.
from jettemarie :
I'm just thinking about your comments about movies that portray the hood. Naturally, Boys in the Hood (one of my favorite movies) popped into my mind immediately. I think some films that are made about the hood do feel exploitative, but I believe that others are trying to expose and express a world that is truly horrific and saddening. Boys in the Hood did that for me, it really touched my heart and made me think. But maybe I'm just a big sap.
from ambrosiah :
I love your diary and your favorite bands. Trust, I'll be back:|
from mattferrara :
Actually, i was reading that back-and-forth in your guestbook. If it makes you feel any better, the same argument is being fought by almost everyone who opposes the war in a country that's 65% in favor. Anyway... Pleadingly earnest definitely has its merits. My problem actually is, I phase between satire and pleadingly earnest, which is really just inviting confusion. Well, i like your diary, too. Thanks for reading mine.
from daoinesidhe :

I fucking LOVE your banner. That is just the shit. :)
from daoinesidhe :
HALLO.SCULPS ARE HEADS LIKE INDIANS USED TO CALL THEM.SORRY IF I DO NOT SPELL THE WORD RIGHT ,BUT SEE I'M FROM GREECE AND MY ENGLISH MAYBE WRONG SOMETIMES.CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG AND PLEASE EXCUSE MY MISTAKES.WITH GAS I WAS TRYING TO EXPRESS THE DIRTY AIR THAT COMES OUT OF THE ASS.SORRY...I DO NOT KNOW THE WORD.IT IS AN EXPRESSION THAT WE USE HERE IN GREECE IN THE COMMON LANGUAGE.SEE YOU FRIEND.
from rumblelizard :
Sculps...filled with gas? I'm not sure I'm getting you, but, uh, thanks?
from daoinesidhe :
QUOTHAV..RAVEN WHO IS THAT ASS?I'M REALLY DISSAPOINTED WHEN THERE ARE SCULPS FILLED WITH GAS!NICE ANSWER FRIEND I LIKE IT!YOU ARE A VERY OPEN MINDED PERSON AND VERY BALANCED!KEEP ON ANSWERING TO WHOEVER TRIES TO MESS UP WITH YOU.YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY MY FAVORITE DIARY.
from floodtide :
That quotheraven idiot e-mailed me ("fireblyss" is her username) as well, with much the same amount of her self-proclaimed "innocence and romanticism." She was, if possible, even more offensive in her e-mail to me than in her note to you. Anyway: Thanks for your erudite and intelligent response to her; mine wasn't quite so mature. I have enjoyed your diary for some time, and will continue to come back. (I can't BELIEVE she has the effrontery to presume to "quoth the raven" of Poe; she doesn't deserve the moniker at all. Poe's raven actually spoke wisdom, if inadvertently; Poe himself also wrote GOOD poetry and prose. I read some of fireblyss's poetry - hoo, boy. The nicest word I can come up with is "pedestrian." Love, Flood.
from violetpurple :
Your Bush banner cracked me up. Nice work!
from skatiebear :
i dont fuking care what people have to say about how bush is trying his hardest... you know what? the only thing he is doing is making people relize that we have had it good for too long... he is just "trying his hardest" to push us all into one big hellhole. i appreciate how you stand for your beliefs and i am behind you and screaming out what should be done... the whole way. so fuck bush and people relize that you are the terrorist if you are fallowing that bastard bush,
from rumblelizard :
Whatever, dipshit. You're getting an email to answer this avalanche of ill-informed and bombastic bullshit.
from quotheraven :
Our President is doing the only thing he can to save us all from that asshole Saddam, and all the American people are doing is giving him a buttload of grief about it! What is he supposed to do when he knows that Saddam who hates our guts, whose own country has already done the unimaginable during Sept.11, has weapons that could nuke our asses straight off the map, who has biochemical agents that could turn all of US into MAD COWS, is Bush supposed to just sit there like a pussy and do nothing?!?! Even Saddams own country wants him gone, the majority of his military is only in his military because they are forced to be, they don't want to answer to that prick anymore. I swear I know Saddam is the fucking antichrist, and everyone who says "Oh Bush is just cauing innocent people to die, oh how immoral he is", well aren't you all just a bunch of pussies too! You're just scared of your own asses, that they will retaliate and come back to our country and bomb us all too. So what if he did, none of us can live forever anyway, right? And who would want to? This world is SELF DESTRUCTING, yeah all of you wanting PEACE and NO WAR, what were all of you doing to make this world a better place before this war threat started? NOT ONE DAMN THING! Ignorance is bliss, you live thinking nothing like war could ever happen to us, but let me tell you things can't get better on their own. This is all prophicized, we are living in the land of the immoral, Babylon the Great Whore, it is written, and there isn't a thing you or me or ANYONE can do about it! God's wrath is empty and so why should we blame Him? All you hear on the news is murders, drugs, rapes, sluts, beatings, crooks, lies, destruction, BULLSHIT! We have done all of this to ourselves, SO STOP YOUR PISSING AND MOANING AND STEP UP TO TAKE THE BEATING WE ALL DESERVE!!!!!
from superdes-318 :
Bush is a motherfuckinh idiot who should be impeached. The people in my class are 12 and 13 (I turn 13 tomorrow, March 18!) and they are way smarter than him and don't agree on the war. I feel sorry for the troops who have to risk their lives and their asses for our stank ass prez! I usually don't curse ...but when it comes to Bush -- aaaaaaaaaaa!
from melieann :
ikeep coming back to your diary, because you seem to be one of the few (suprisingly) who are worried about this war. tomorrow bush will announce that we are official at war. are you and i the only ones sick about this?
from doombilly :
actually "Kelly" called you a "fuckstick" not a "fistfuck". What a tool?!
from ferretmommy :
Lol, sorry 'bout that...yeah, I meant "kick ass" :)
from kb8 :
Hi-Will you take my survey?
from laquerida :
*Thank you* for making it so easy to write to the anal-retentive, oil-loving senators from my home state. I haven't bothered to do that in a long time. I don't know what else we can do. I fantasize of joining millions (3? 4?) of people and stampeding the white house. Refusing to back down - walking straight up to the door and pounding away at it. I would be willing to be shot by trigger-happy bodyguards if I knew it would stop this war.
from sushichick :
The Bush banner - freaking fabulous!
from lillith1376 :
Can I just say that Bush if a fuckin' talking monkey? Okay, I feel better now... People People People! WE NEED TO BE AWARE! READ IN BETWEEN THE LINES! DON'T BE A NATION OF SHEEP! HEY, RUMBLELIZARD.... YOU'RE FUCKIN' BEAUTIFUL BABY...
from dark-poet82 :
hey girl. i loved your rant on religon and stuff...i feel the same damn way. my boyfriend seems to have a stick up his ass for relgion and gets all pissy b/c i dont believe what he thinks i shoudl believe and such. if you want check out my entry "Until It Burns". it is a poem and if you want to look at it on my other site i post at, that is thestarlitecafe.com and i pen under ghani. enjoy!
from ferretmommy :
Regarding your "wakeup" entry: You once again say exactly what I want to say. You're one kiss ass woman.
from ladygoodman :
i <3 your banner.
from destroyable :
Your banner is so bloody true!! I love your diary and everything written in it! Go you!
from laquerida :
Your premonition is right on - supported by prophecies from various sources, both religious and secular. My advice: prepare for the worst, beccause you know our government won't be taking care of us when the bombs fall.
from emo-dork :
ok, you are my hero based on the banner for your diary alone. I can see now I'll be reading your diary regularly.
from melieann :
after watching that show i had that same sick feeling in my stomach. really sick feeling. i look at these kids (and being a mother they are KIDS) dressed up in their play stuff and feel like crying. i'm scared too and not ashamed to admit it.
from ursaminor2 :
eeeekkkk, I get "stuff" like that too, call them premonitions or whatever, I just feel things coming. I have felt it, big and bad, coming a long time now. I am scared too. I didn't want to hear that anyone else felt it too. Maybe I have been wrong before, and I just don't remember it. I hope so.
from skepticism13 :
Hehe. I like the "lies lies" banner. Very amusing. I laugh.
from feio :
Right. Well, I quite like that new Interpol cd as well. I was going to see them in Athens, GA, but sadly the show was sold out. Darn. So now I get to see the Donna's! Haha, ahem. xox- Elizabeth
from feio :
Actually, I'm not jealous at all. Sorry.
from feio :
I'm atheist as well, but I think your banners are crap.
from alwaysange :
The three girls who have made themselves an exclusive bitchpack are actually very ugly to me. Their personalities make them the ugliest people on the show. I'm glad they got rid of Joanna too, but I feel sorry for the girl who was sick and stuck with the bitches.
from bannerreview :
I completely agree with you, I'm glad she was booted off too. She annoyed the hell out of me.
from stupedphuk :
and all this time i thought i was the only one who noticed the fact that Korea has all these nukes and the president doesn't even seem to care. take care
from waterstain :
the song lyrics were most amusing. and the monkey note below made me snicker. if it makes you feel any better about your touch, though, i did bristle at the whole killing him thing, even if i am against the war.
from floodtide :
Now THAT is a fabulous - fabulous! - banner. I'll be back. Thanks. Love, Flood.
from passthemic :
brilliant banner!
from daoinesidhe :
hallo .I want to congradulate you for your last entry keep on with the good work.After all, the war MUST CONCERN US ALL!keep on doing your ANTI - WAR struggle, through diaryland ,because there are a lot of people ,who are teenagers and members of diaryland , and i believe and personally have the desire for them to read "politically" correct messages ,from an older(i don't know your exact age,i just guess)person.Please keep on ,because i understand that many people read your diary.WAR IS AGAINST ALL OF US AND BUSH IS ANOTHER KILLER IN THE LIST OF THE SERIAL KILLERS.You give me hope that in USA there are not only "blank-minded" people, that do not use their brains.There would be many things that i could say to you ,but it would be salvation for me to know that you fight every day against the war pigs.Thank you for existing.You have my respect.

i am talking about the font that is silver. next to the legolas picture

the font that is in the long paragraph in the You've Got a Monster In Your Parasol entry
from blood-clot :
where did rumblelizard get that font? i have been looking for it everywhere.

i wish i could be with you on the valentines day thing. the whole "fuck that" attitude. but i think i will sit here and be sad. hats off, though. great diary. geat layout. great everything.
from nightro :
dude. smoking bunnies. thats some pretty sick shit dude. rock on.
from adelyte :
the smoking bunny caught my eye... the Lords of Acid bitches made me go "HEY" ... and your writing is entertaining. Rock on.
from i-am-bubbles :
Valentine's Day sucks to be sure - it's the only holiday that exists purely by corporate forces ... but moreover, have you ever noticed how sexist the commercials around now are? I just recently realized, actually LISTENING to a diamond commercial - all women being gift-grubbing vicious things that'll turn a guy out for getting the wrong ruby-sapphire-diamond tennis bracelet. Ick ick blah.
from saint-louise :
No nonchalance here. Just a vicious, purposeful attack of pointed refusal-to-acknowledge, akin to putting my fingers in my ears, closing my eyes, and saying, "LALALAICAN'THEARYOULALALALA." Or maybe I just don't have a very good memory when it comes to meaningless holidays. One or the other.
from sparrowline :
the hell with it, indeed!
from celtickatt :
Yeah! The HELL with it! *sniffle*
from girl-aflame :
I wonder about things like that too, the existence of time and so forth. I love it when I'm in that kind of mood! I agree with your father. I don't think time really exists. Only on a scale of biological clocks; cells have a certain lifespan. But that isn't measured in seconds; its measured in the number of times the cellular machinary can run its course before the molecular bonds weaken. So technically if your cells could stop energy transfer, entropy would be paused and they could have a long life span in years, months, etc, but the same life span in cellular time. Anyway *laughs* measuring time by the movement of planets, the answer would be no, life on distant stars have a different concept of "now". Well as you can see, I've rambled on rather geekily in your notes so... *laughs* I'll go back to my own diary now.

So, I definitely LOVE your fishie banner and the accompanying rant. I've got a darwin fish with legs of my own on the old volvo. Unfortunately, i get to enjoy not only a bush as president but also a bush as my governor......so yeah, keep ranting. it keeps me sane down here.

Hi! I knew I had to leave a message when I read your newest entry commenting on the anniversary of Roe v. Wade because you basically summed up exactly what I think. Well...that's all I wanted to say, I'm going to go explore your diary some more. :-)

from flyinby :
i stopped by, just wanted to say hello and tell you that i agree about the smoke smell thing. i used to smoke and about 4 or 5 months after i quit and the smell of smoke finally washed out of my clothes for long enough, i started noticing that smoke-smell. *ugh* yeah, it sucks. anyways, i might stop back.

also, if you like Ska, i have an "Arsenals" CD I could give you they are on the label Moonska. And no, "Arsenals" is not an allusion to the English footbal team!
from anticrew :
dear rumblelizard, where are all the pretty pictures of the old school punk bands you used to have up?
from cuillin :
Hey you...thanks for your note. It made me feel better, because I honestly took your comment as an insult..."here's a hint" or whatever. It just seemed very condescending at the time. So I became stupidly disturbed and vowed never to speak of anything remotely political ever again. I blame it on PMS. Yes, I love to announce the spokes of my menstrual cycle to the world! At any rate, I'm sorry for my snotty response. Your note honestly made a weight disappear from my shoulders...I'm too sensitive sometimes. Most of the time I really don't react like a complete dumbass, I swear! Take care, and thanks again for your note -- xoxoxo
from hippyscarlet :
Hey, I stumbled into your diary from your banner. . the bunny asking about having a smoke.. (giggle)... enjoyed the excert I read and just wanted to say hey, and Peace... nice to see other interesting people with a level of depth ;-)~ Hippy
from un-bad :
I love awards ceremonies! They're so classy and what not. With the gowns and tuxes.
from rumblelizard :
Since there's no way to reply to you, giggie, (you don't have notes or a guestbook) I'm doing it here. I see your point, and I agree that overpopulation is a problem. However, the problem of overpopulation could also be alleviated if people stopped believing the Religious Wrong and accepted birth control and abortion as being useful tools of population control rather than mortal sins. Also, schools and governments should advocate population control and facilitate people's efforts to that end. I.e., sex education classes that don't only focus on abstinence, free birth control to people of child-bearing years, free birth-control implants for teens who request them, etc. The Religious Wrong has prevented all of those things from happening. It's an outrage, to my mind.
from giggie :
although i understand your personal view of religion and society and our "elected officials". just gonna toss this question out there because well it should be asked. all these diseases that this is supposed to cure those diseases are around for a specific reason and that's to kill the people who have it... if we knew every cure for every disease then our world would be heavily over populated, more so than it is now. do you honestly think that in the whole the world can benifit from having such saving knowledge? i want to let you know that i too have seen people pass from heart disease and such, it runs in my family as well. and this is in no means a personal blow to your views, just offering a different perspective.PS- i love reading your journal you remind me alot of myself.

I think you don't party for fun, you are a professional. Are they taking applications? I have a good resume.
from picassomoon :
Hell Yeah!! Get fucking cats, they don't bark. Seriously, people need to train there dogs, I mean think about the dogs, if they are hysterically barking all the time the they must be scared or upset or going through some sort of emotion and here the bad puppy parents are just ignoring it. Call the cops, for sure, and if all else fails... break into their house and use their toothbrushes to clean the toilet, i mean scrub the icky parts and then sneak out and no one will be the wiser. I always do it to my friends lying cheating ex boyfriends and they never know... sweet sweet revenge :)
from patw-21 :
well i clicked your banner, i was here quite some time ago reading up on those damn neighbours, so i came back today, and read about you cfinally taking action! GOOD JOB!

thanks for the reply. i still say dont go there alone. and get together with neighbors. a united front is best and these people see to be able to turn violent if pushed. 'sic em' is asault. depending on the breed of dog it could be asault with a deadly weapon. take care

from sistersowhat :
I just got done adding Lunchmeat/Soulside and the original Godzilla (in Japanese, no Raymond Burr) to my lists of things I like and a banner for your old school punk site came up with a pic of the Gman on it. Oh yeah. Right up my graffittied little alley. The college station here sometimes still plays good old local punk music as well as the real deal hardcore pre-1985 stuff (especially over breaks, like we've got coming up). *Sigh* We should talk...

im just glad someone made that ring. I did check out that page and I agree...lots of good old school stuff. thanks-Madie
from anticrew :
hahahahaha! Agnostic Front. When they came to Toronto last year, I spent most of the night talking to them and Roger Miret spent most of the night trying to sweet talk me into the sack: "You look alot like my ex-girlfriend, you know". I was THIS close to saying: "Gee, Rog...you don't think I look like your wife or daughter?" Hardcore boys are always hard-up.
from anticrew :
yah, i have this personal bias that anything post 1985 is the epitome of crap punk. you should list some more hardcore bands as oi and street punk would never have existed without NYHC..that's just more personal bias on my party, sorry.

ah..yes..i joined. muahahaaaaaaaaaaaAAAA
from zzilreywas :

from saneorinsane :
Rockers come like a fucking firestorm out of the midwest man. I happen to be one of them, slash punker and such. You're diary is the coolest I have seen, keep it up.Hmmmmm... SLAYER KICKS ASS!
from ldybug1113 :
hehe, you're cool. :)
from plastickman :
Your right. For claiming to be such kind and pasionate souls a lot of religons out there sure do go around swinging a battle ax as they preach. Alas a majority of religion goes by the old standard that mom and dad love to say so much "Do as I say, not as I do." Did Ghandi, Buddah, or any of the Dahli Lama's ever go around ever teach hatred or intolerance? Nope. Western religion sure loves to do that through their interpetation of the scriptures though.
from sistercookie :
Wasn't there a quote somewhere that says "He without sin cast the first stone" or something like "Do unto others as you would have done unto you"? Personally I think way too many people use religion to justify violent behavior. Did you think to ask this "Christian" does he realise that his using religion as an excuse to do violence is very similar to the reasons that Osama Bin Laden is using?
from squirrelx :
Dear Lizard: Thank you for signin' my guestbook. By way of answerin' your question ... no I never had a 'steamy affair' with my friend David, but he has expressed the desire for just such a liason in the past. I've always turned him down, as kindly as I could, and I felt like standin' there in my underwear the other day, I was bein' unnecessarily provocative, thus contradictin' myself. :::sigh:::: As you've pointed out, I got clocked on the head. Consequently, my thought processes were pretty badly messed up while I wrote the entry you responded to. Thanks for readin' it, though. Best, Xtine / Squirrel X
from lenoa5 :
hey, I like your diary. You should check out perceptions.
from bukowskigirl :
yeah...it's a joke. I know you don't want to have my babies, seeing as I am alos a girl, it would be uncomfortable to say the least. But...I knew about the other freakin' librarian, that's what the rumbles all about! There can only be one! Har har
from bukowskigirl :
ok...so this is more a general what the fuck, than a message to you. there is some other sassy librarian running around on this thing! Huh!? There may have to be a librarian rumble.

I have poison ivy and a cold and I am going to vote because I have the right.
from sistercookie :
I have poison ivy and the flu so the rest of those sniveling, whining people should just shut up. Especially is they do not get 20 calls a day from computerized political campaigns on top of everything. You are allowed to be grumpy if you are sick. The healthy out there should be grateful for their health.
from deadflower97 :
you said it! It's good you have so much ppl who read you're diary now maybe a few ppl will take defence courses n stuff and tell others and they'll do it and tell others and so on and on.. hey! you just saved womanhood.. YOU GO GIRL! greetz deadflower97
from jon-daniels :
In the same vein as Waking Life as a non-traditional horror movie, I consider Requiem for a Dream to be just about the scarriest movie I can think of cause it shows pretty graphically how quickly your life can go straight to hell.
from sistercookie :
Hey, wait you sound like me. LOL
from picassomoon :
dude... go get a cortizone shot thats what i get when i have to work and im sick as a dog in like an hour you'll feel soooooooo good. Trick is it hurts like hell.. :(
from picassomoon :
lol you are so funny.... put the rabbit down and step away. Trust me... take a break and go somewhere and then when you reunite later on it will be even better :) I have an absentee boyfriend... so i can totally relate. i added you to my fav diaries.
from jon-daniels :
after reading both your's and vancookie's entries, I think its safe to say one of you had a little more than the other, eh?
from jon-daniels :
jesus, I tell ya girl, compared to the weird amalgams of different people that show up in my dreams who want to get it on, Mike D would be a welcome appearance...
from sistercookie :
See there is reason we have the terms dream and nightmare. LOL I mean you wouldn't say that about someone you would like to have sex with. LOL
from jadedazazel :
i just wanted to stop by again and tell you how much i worship thee. ha ;)
from fadingcandle :
amazing.you've gained a fan.
from highway23 :
You know, Vanilla Ice also starred in a movie once about a white boy in the hood. If I remember correctly, it sucked. These things happen.
from sistercookie :
ok, I am from Detroit so Eninem can go blow. He was born in K.C. and only lived in a shithole for a short while. He then moved to a neighborhood and house which is still better than practically everybody I know especially those under 35.
from sistercookie :
I started a ring called Mentalorder, please check it out.
from sistercookie :
I am from Michigan and have lived in New York and LA too and I still would rather live in Michigan. New England is nice but there is no work there. Being a bookworm is something I can relate too. My mother didn't have a tv so I didn't get to see TV on any regular basis until I was older. As far as careers go I think I am like you because I am interested in so many things that its hard to decide what one should do. Personally I think Sammy is probably smarter than the people who can't understand that dogs are actually quite smart depending on the breed. I like lizards too. I like that Jim Morrison said "I am the lizard king, I can do anything". Anybody who follows any religion without question is an idiot. Remember that all religion has been tainted by the human race. If you don't believe in god then look at birds, trees, etc. I like to think of God as a superior being and not the way the blind extreme religions picture him. Besides Robin Williams said that he thought God smoked Pot because of the platypus. LOL Besides anyone who thinks the human race is superior should remember all the lives lost by weather, earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, etc. Even if the human race destroyed itself the earth would still be here and would eventually have life on it again, just maybe not human life. Also according to scientists we are all descended from Eve and that any race can go from black to white or vice versus in 20,000 years depending on the environment. But its who you are that counts and people who are too selfish need to be taken out and public humilated until they understand this. The best way thing you can do for yourself is question things around you. Also as far as your neighbors go, remember that if they are on public property like your street you can stand on the street and scream at them for speeding. Personally I would rather be homeless than have to live in New York or LA ever again. I prefer the attitude of I won't bother you if you don't bother me attitude of the midwest. I am glad you got a house, if you need any help with anything leave me a note. I have pretty much done everything you can do to a house except masonary work. Plumbing, electrical, drywall, etc. If you want I can even model your house in 3-D and you can use this program I have to basically walk around in it. Isn't technology wonderful. Don't let the neighbors get away with being passive or annoying assholes. Somebody has go to scream about social responsibilty. I am not socially acceptable but I do remember that I don't live in a cave. I love you diary and think that the only reason you can't find any good men is because they are few and far between. The good ones seem to be gay as well. LOL Many you will just have to settle for good enough. LOL Also like you I like all kinds of music. Music is one of the only things that can save you from the misery of life. So crank the music and screw all the idiots.
from kittymagnum :
Grrrl...you rock. if you ever get bored, take a gander at my diary...used to have pictures but they randomly disappeared. Go figure. :) I am a HUGE Coop fan and totally thought that I was lookin' at my own diary when i saw yours. Check out my other website if you are interested...www.thegreasergarage.com. Cheers babe!
from sistercookie :
I saw your banner today. It was very cool. I knew immediately that it was yours but I waited until the end to confirm it. At least its more interesting than some of the other stupid banners. LOL
from skela :
oh, boy! bunny is tasty. y'r the best. xox skela(tor, evil overlord of the universe!!! grrr!)
from mental-freak :
like ur template?!? how do u get all that diff stuff on your entries.....like the monsters or whatever
from sampsman :
Just wanted to let you know I dig what you were laying down (10/8) in your entry regarding what would happen if U-S is invaded. You're sharp as a middle eastern scimitar ... keep it up.
from sistercookie :
no of course I would never use someone's else's code without their permission. I am a good computer geek not a hacker. Besides its more interesting to look at your code and your page at the same time. You can email me [email protected]. Besides I don't want all your icons I just want the text version of the html part so I can see in relation to what the screen shows. If you go to shurtech.com or metroartists.com you can see how I start writing pages but then I get sidetracked. LOL I more interested from a html view then in copying it. Its the computer geek in me. Art and Computers put them together and you can have amazing things. You are a very funny person. I agree on what you said about the President's real motives behind the war with Iraq. Besides if they can't find Osama Bin Laden who is 7 feet tall and on diaylsis then how can we really believe that the war with Iraq would go any better. Besides I think Bush is being operating by his father. George W. Bush was rated as having the lowest IQ of any president and he can't even seem to read the speech he is given right. LOL
from sistercookie :
The view source does not work. I am computer geek so I understand this option may be turned off. The view source does not work on other people's diaries either. I just think your template is very cool. Creativity and intelligence are a rare combinations (especially these days).
from mental-freak :
sweet diary.....how do u get all that stuff on
from jadedazazel :
a chick who rocks, woo hoo!
from skela :
oh, boy! yr banner rabbit with the fag in his mouth is neet. could i have him for a pet? send him to me at [email protected]. mmm, bunny.
from alwaysinhim :
I know what u mean.
from treanta :
Hey, Love the pic's and the site. I will be checking up and see how's everthing going.
from sistercookie :
do you think I could get a copy of your page code because I am just interested in how your page fits together? check out http://www.shurtech.com/ I think you are highly entertaining and intelligent. Very artistically creative too. It good to know the world isn't completely without talent.
from tremulant :
wow. you have some of the coolest and most interesting musical interests i've ever seen.
from arquene :
hey, you. your diary is interesting, hilarious, and easy to relate to. i too just ended a thing with a guy -- it was about 5 weeks ago. i have a new one but the relationship is still rather chaste, and i echo your need for GETTING LAID. glad i'm not the only one.
from devian :
love your diary. i feel like i'm back in detroit--all the black and morbid stuff. very cool! thanks for making me homesick! :P hey-got a dumb question--how do you make links on your pages? for example, your entry said "the great breakup" and i could click on "great" and it brought me to an entry. that is cool. i'd like to learn that. take care--devian (sorry about the breakup. i feel your pain)
from motherofian :
I have an idea. Lets kill all the men in this world, except for my son, and maybe all the babies there are already, and then raise a whole new race of humans. I think we'd be better off having women in charge :) How's that sound?
from zombiemonkey :
hi i've never found somebody like you! you are awesome! i hate it when the stupid men of the world do yet again another stupid thing. we should send them to pluto having their dicks shrivil to nothingness then maybe they would stop thinking with their petrified penis's and using their head above their sholders. have fun in new york
from sistercookie :
Unfortunately like most men, you can't have sex without the annoying personality. LOL I could suggest sex buddies. Most women don't comprehend or are able to handle this but basically if you are friends with a guy and you just have sex with him for the sake of sex. Usually the friend is happy because he got laid and you don't have to deal with the annoying personality because you can always say no. I have 3 rules: The guy cannot talk to anyone about you because if he does, he is cut off from sex. He must have been a friend for a long period so that you can trust him to a degree (he's still a guy). He must agree to abide by your wishes (yes or no). I started this idea when I was 18 so when I couldn't put up with dating anyone I could still get mine. Women should not be ashamed but just very careful. Once a guy I was dating talked about sex to his buddy and that was it, I simply said "You violated my number one rule and you are cut off". If men feel the need to brag then they should be cut off because sex and relationships are private. But mostly my advice is only have sex with a guy after you have known him a while and always use a condom (even if a woman is on the pill) because you can catch things including herpes. Of course you can avoid some of that by sleeping with male virgins. Usually if the guy is a virgin then he is ecstatic if you sleep with him. I mean has a guy ever had bad sex with you? LOL
from sistercookie :
Hey you can always call Mr. Mike's probation officer if he gets too annoying to you. LOL
from sistercookie :
I don't think you quite get the fact that I am a degreed computer geek. I have been writing html for 5 years. My technical resume would be pages long if I put everything I know on it. Check out my website shurtech.com for my resume and other stuff. Its the artistic side I have more problems with, the technical part I can do even if I am high. LOL
from sistercookie :
You are an excellent writer. Your life reminds me of things happening in Detroit. I saw your note in dorknoodle's notes so I thought I would check you out. Check out my profile to see who I am. By the way I love your html for your entries. My is still boring because I haven't figured out what I want to do yet. But you have given me some ideas where to start. Thanks. Its hard to find people with any imagination and intelligence anywhere so I am glad that I can find some of that here.
from burningtruth :
hey :) id like to invite you to write in this public diary.. its open to anything and everything. Take care
from patw-21 :

from dorknoodle :
All I gotta say is that your use of the word "tits" almost geographically locates you possibly very near me. Tits is the word I still retain, 16 years later, from school. Tits is just a tits word, and I've had a rather non-tits week, so reading that was extremely tits.
from doombilly :
yeah, I know. It's a stupid plan, but I have played it safe all my life. I will keep my caution in tact. Thanks for the warning. Fortunately I have copious mental health training.
from mikeymike :
duuude
from doombilly :
My doctor told me I was medically boring. I mean is that any way to treat someone who is in fine health? What a Wanker!
from doombilly :
Hah! Just kidding. I figured you were a woman but besides flirting, my other hobby is pissing people off with blanket statements. I am crazy like that. Hee hee. Godzilla is a female though. Look it up.
from doombilly :
actually Godzilla is female. Like most big horrible monsters...(oh crap did I say that out loud?)Rheotoric like that is gonna feck with my business plan. eeeerp!

That is, my friend, the dopest dream ever. Quite possibly even more cool than my cheesy horror movie dream of, "My Grandmother is a DEMON from HELL".
from jenne1017 :
lol did I confuse you?
from saint-louise :
He wasn't gross or anything. I just wasn't attracted to him. And he didn't say anything other than, "Can I get your number?" I mean...couldn't he ask my name, chat for a bit, or something? No. Just, "give it, bitch." Well, not "bitch" but still...it's not happening. No siree.
