Into the Wild. Into the Wild is about a young man who after graduating from college embarks upon a journey around the U.S with no money and few possessions while abandoning his family and the life he once lived. It is based on a true story. The movie chronicles his physical and emotional journey and his many relationships throughout. His ultimate goal being to reach the Alaska Wilderness. I had heard good things about the movie and it's got a moderately high rating on Rotten Tomatoes but I would say this movie made me feel content at best. It wasn't a bad movie by any stretch but I wasn't all that inspired either. I'd say the major qualms I had with the movie was that his motivations where ridiculously exaggerated and a lot of the dialog/narrating was way too pretentious/arsty/stupid writer poem crap. I enjoyed most of the camera word and as a whole the story was quite nice but again his motivations, his parents used to fight frequently and he wasn't a big fan of society, where quite puzzling. He did kill a moose which was pretty cool I suppose and I will admit some of the narration/writing was nice but not exactly memorable. I'm going to give this movie 8.78 mildly apathetic insane river side Norwegian campers who provide hot dogs to criminal kayakers on the run from the law out of 10.

I love where this is going...as long as the eagle lands from the setting of the sun if you catch my meaning. Girls like that kind of thing.

I would say it's more like House in that each episode has a different set of circumstances, characters and subplot. Burn Notice has a lot more story progression thrown in though becuase each case he gets closer and closer to the truth. I just started watching yesterday and watched about 8 episodes over the course of the day since they were running a marathon. It's a pretty good show and yes the new episode was quite good. I figured that hot chick was the voice right when they showed her. Too much attention pointed to her and when she spoke it was a dead ringer. But I agree I thought she would have been a smokey hot brunette with medium sized cans. Blondes are lame but she'll have to suffice I suppose.

Do we know there's a zombie out break ravaging the world or is this the first instance? I'm watching the show Burn Notice and during the commercials internet porn. I'm also chewing on a straw and my eyes are tired after reviewing accounting principles from a rented Library book. I hear a noise down stairs but ignore it. I can feel something sinister in the night air.

It can range from a graceful pounding to a vindictive flogging. Just depends on the mood.

There's a burn notice marathon on now that I've been watching since the morning. It's a pretty entertaining show. Thanks for the heads up.

more cats edit: that detective scenario sounds pretty cool

Best. Post. Ever.

I think they decided to cancel it. Instead they are going to be at E3 which is the 15 or something. Bunch of lying bastards. ):<

I'm sorry to hear that krookie and Walsh. Why do bad things have to happen to good people. :'(

I killed a hooker.

How was this tricky? It's completely linear and guides you to the fire and rope...

When I was a young teen we had a small garden in the back yard which attracted all sorts of exotic wildlife. One morning I was making some bacon and instead of pouring the hot bacon grease into the sink or something I went outside to pour it into the failed orange tree planters pot like I usually did, however this time there was an extremely large hornworm mulling about. I sprung into action and doused him with burning pig fat. I laughed manically as he squirmed about, helplessly trying to fend off death. I had underestimated this creatures resilience. I was astounded as he meandered around, no doubt in a frenzied rage. So I scooped him up with a gardening spade and sacrificed him to the great ant kingdom. They smothered him by the hundreds, each one devouring his body in primal delight. Rendered pig fat soaking their antennae and greasy mandibles. I love ants.

I"VE ABABDONDED MY BOY!!! Sounds like you two are up to no good. A man needs a well stocked fridge of gatorade and lotion for these kinds of occasions.

Fio cries inside, just a single tear. Fora was his most favoritest word ever.

I shower often but no cologne or deodorant. Just the distinctive aroma of rotten potatoes that perspires from ever slug pore in my translucent body. Sometimes people will ask me what cologne that is but I'm like "It's a secret." because I'm not actually wearing any. The women just can't get enough of it though. One whiff of it and they're on the ground convulsing. No doubt some kind of ritualistic mating dance.

I had a very short interview today. It went pretty good but I told him I was going to school but I could schedule around work any way I want. He didn't seem too convinced. I hope I get the second interview. My friend went earlier today as well and maybe we'll be able to work together eventually. The job sounds pretty neat and easy so I would really enjoy it. If not it could prove to be a pretty damaging blow to my already -57% confidence level but it will allow me to focus completely on school which is alright I suppose except for the simple fact it will mean I will have 0 freakin work experience when I actually go out into the world. Oh hey a 23 year old with 3 months of cleaning dishes and making food. Awesome. Just awesome. And yes I would say it's weird that if you wore men's cologne.

i made some deviled eggs and then proceeded to consume them all in one sitting and now I feel dizzy and don't feel good. why god, why are you doing this to me :'( rglrlrgrglr

Amazingly I got a call back from a prospective employer today. It's odd because I haven't gotten a call back from 99% of the job apps I've sent in over the course of the year and this one I didn't even completely fill out their online application. I did the begining and submitted my resume but I left about 5 other pages blank becuase the website timed out and it wouldn't let me back in. The sad thing though is that this job is one that I might not even really be able to do because the time table would most likely interfere with my schooling but I think I'm going to give it a shot if I can make it through the interview without failing too hard which inevitably will happen since I'm just a ball of nerves and when I'm put in a situation like that my mind goes completely blank and I answer everything in basically one or two syllable answers so there's no real conversation going on, just me giving the answers straight up becuase that's just who I am, a straight shooter not to mention I think I subconsciously sabotage myself plus I can already predict that even before I get there I'll be a nice and sweaty mess becuase number 1 its about 150 degrees out and two I have hyperhydrosis which is aggravated by anxiousness which I already am and then I get even more anxious from sweating so I keep on sweating and its like this crazy cycle but then put that inside of an oven and I think I'm going to die of a heart attack or dehydration. However this does bring a shiny little glimmer of hope. I'm pretty much following Adam Carolla, who I listen to on the radio. He started out working in fast food, then quit, then no one would hire him, then he started cleaning carpets, then he was even poorer and stuff and eventually broke into comedy. Sure there are a ton of differences but I feel it. One day I'll be the greatest lemur tamer the world has ever seen, making the big bucks.

Malthus will be right some day! I swear it.

In 10 years the lizard people will make their presence known to the world. They will have led the charge in advances in information systems and how data is gathered, processed, and interpreted so they can better enslave the public. Both natural and man inspired disaster will continue to ravage various regions around the world. Things like drought, acid rain, and other long term problems will drive populations into surrounding areas causing massive crowding and scarcity of resources. This will cause greater social-political strife leading to greater demand in environmental recovery and resource efficiency. By now the middle east will have become a nuclear playground. Israel will be shattered but still have a central government intact. The nations surrounding them will be in constant conflict. If the radiation hasn't killed you, lack of clean food and water or the local militias will. Seeing the growing instability and U.S presence in the Middle East, China and Russia join an alliance together to put further pressure on the Western World for competing resources. Both nations will have become financial power houses and influenced greatly by democracy and western culture. The further they move toward democracy the more the U.S moves away from it. Japan will have been developing their military and short range nuclear ballistics in secret in response to China's growing strength. Their economy will have leveled off but remain stagnant after their recession. A lack of land and devastated agriculture and fishing populations will cause massive food shortages which will strain their systems but they will remain a technological leader securing their economic status in the world. Surprisingly Madagascar will become the main exporter of domesticated Lemur in the world. It will also benefit from an immense tourist population who enjoy the exotic jungle coast and resorts centered around lemur sanctuaries.

Does a .22 count? :'(

There Will Be Blood. Once the credits started to roll, I was pretty dumbfounded. This was was one of the most eccentric movies I have ever seen. Tons of imagery and a whole lot of not talking. The pros. Daniel Day Lewis and a few equally insane characters, a unique story about oil drilling, and an unexplainable atmosphere. The cons. The pacing of the film completely stumped me. For 2 and a half hours, almost nothing really happened. If you tried you could sum up the entire movie in about 6-7 events. Oddly enough this really didn't bother me. Somehow they found a way to make it not all that boring when nothing was even happening. Other than that it was a cool movie. The slug rules that There Will Be Blood deserves 8.49 I drink your milk shakes out of 10.

Quantum accounting sounds awesome but I'm not even sure I can even conceptualize what that would entail. Also, I'm not an accountant yet. Far from it. You probably have more practical and working knowledge of it than I do. I've only taken 2 accounting classes, one of which the only thing I learned was what unit contribution margin is. I think I've developed a degenerative cognitive condition. I've gotten progressively dumber in the last few years. :'(
