1. Leave me a comment and I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can get to know you better.
2. Update your journal with the answers to the questions.
3. Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
from ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) limers
1. You're out in the middle of the woods. You're lost, stranded, almost out of food and you've been out of cigarettes for the last two days. You come to a scary cottage. It has dead animal skeletons hanging like decorations from the porch and it smells like bourbon and rotting flesh. Do you take your chances in the wild or do you knock on the door?
Um yep. Creepy deceased animals or not, its still better than the never-ending woods and the very alive predatory animals contained therein. Since I've been on my own for so long, I have fashioned several weapons that will keep me safe during my search of Scary Cottage. Short answer: YES B/C THEY HAVE BOURBON
2. Doesn't matter. The door opens no matter what decision you've made. A beautiful looking young woman peers out. She's smoking hot, seriously, you get a boner. She asks you to come inside and take her virginity before her father comes home because she's lonely. Also, if you do this, she will point you the direction of the road, give you cigarettes and food. Do you bone her?
Bone bone bone. See ya! Next time I get lost in those woods, I'll be accosted by startling look-alikes of myself. I gotta stop coming to Creepy-Ass Haunted Woods for my vacations.
3. You have three hours to live. You can either spend this time writing a book that will become a best seller for decades to come and will be taught at universities but you will spend those three hours alone and in deep concentration. You can steal $100 000 from a bank and you won't get caught, go to Las Vegas and fuck and gamble and party for the next three days but you won't be able to tell your family where you're going. Or you have the opportunity to magically locate your "soul mate" and spend the next three days with her in the best bliss you or her will ever know before you die, of course when you die her heart will be broken and she will never love again and spend her time in mourning.
Which option do you choose and why?
A) BORING. Spending the last 3 hours of my life alone, for the benefit of other people? I suppose that having my text studied deeply at a post secondary level is quite enticing, but the exchange of those precious moments is too costly
B) Tempting. Going down in a blaze of glory is a luxury afforded to too few. Although it seems selfish to go off on my own and neglect my family, it is MY life after all, and I should be allowed to burn it off having fun.
C) Also tempting. To achieve true bliss with another is a fitting way to usher out your life. I would, however, regret ruining the perfect person (for me) for the rest of her life. Why can't she just forget and move on like all of my other ex-girlfriends? Bah you and your ethical deadlock questions.
I choose B. With $100,000 I could pay each of my friends a day's wage (to get them off work) buy them all round-trip tickets and go out in true Roman style... At Ceasar's Palace!
4. That was say too heavy. If you could shapeshift at will into any animal, what would be your animal and why?
No kidding. Geez. I would be a bald eagle because they don't have to face difficult existential questions like #3. They just fly around all day and kill medium sized animals with their talons.
5. Too bad, the animal you shapeshift into is a Horned Toad. How does that make you feel?
Awesome. I will go chill with the Navajos because they think I am sacred. Does this mean they will share their mescaline with me? Fingers crossed! Plus they have rad defense mechanisms. "...they puff up their body to cause it to look more horny, making it appear larger and more difficult to swallow" and they can shoot blood out of their eyes. WINNAR

as spring spreads to this spot, the spatial centre of the country, the continent, spy certain celebrating citizens, certainly stoked for sun spells/ some sip sangria, summoning summer solstice and soaking up the solar stream sweeping the sky/ sunset slowly slides up, the sun subsides, signaling the sticky stillness of night, and soon the sun settles, circling slowly back to the source/ I state softly that the sun still cycles, supplying a steady source of swelter and softly stroking the skin, sinking in and setting it a certain sultry shade. super.

| LJ in the house? |
[Wednesday, May 27th, 2009 @ 10:35am] |
woot, I approve of the current trend of posting in the LJ. Screw facebook anyway, it's idle mind-crack, the biggest time sink since masturbation and/or tetris. So here's how it goes:
Life is pretty ok. I mean, no complaints, to be sure. I work THREE friggin' jobs right now; I ref soccer games, I keep on makin' those maps, and I fix the computers for that one guy. The weather forecast is good, sunny and ~20+ across the board.
I applied at a college in Peterborough, ON (hi lauren) and I'm really hpoing I get in. The program is called Outdoor Adventure Skills or something like that, and it certifies you to do all sorts of fascinating shit. Canoe tripping, GPS/compass navigation, Trail building/maintenance etc etc. Some day I could be the asshole Parkie dumping out your beer because your ass got too puzzled on the brew. Or, you know, taking your rich relatives on an expensive 'adventure themed' canoe vacation where I build them a fire and go to bed. If anyone cares, this is the program page.
I got a new car, and someday I'll be un-lazy enough to pull the pictures of it OFF of the camera and upload them. Until then, its a 91 red VW golf with a plaid ceiling and a can-do attitude.
I really don't have much to say here, especially since I'm supposed to be programming some bullshit utility that has waay to many redundant features to make sure the user isn't a total asshat. So I'ma go do that.
EDIT: OMG I JUST GOT THE ACCEPTANCE EMAIL FROM THE COLLEGE! EXCITED!

| canoe TRIP |
[Thursday, May 21st, 2009 @ 10:54am] |
Monday - Drove the canoe to Raymond's house (mental note - go get that canoe back!), picked up the chainsaw and guitar from Katch. Sharpened the chainsaw.
( more goodness after the jump )
Then I went home to sleep in a bed once again. The end.

If you live under a rock and haven't heard yet, the Westboro Baptist Church of Crazies (www.godhatesfags.com) have come to manitoba. They'll be protesting at the funeral of Tim McLean, the victim of the greyhound beheading. Their gig is waving irrational placards with hateful slogans, and publicly praying that 'god' will send more and worse tragedies our way.
Here is some of their hate literature and a newspaper article
It would "sure" be a "shame" if they were to get pelted with projectiles and just generally harassed while they attempt to taint this solemn situation with their own special, demented brand of crazy.
The funeral is scheduled for tomorrow from 3-4 at 401 Westwood Drive. Last I heard, the plan was to create a human wall to shield and protect the family from these loons. If you do go please try to keep it as respectful as possible for the family in this difficult time. I'll try to make the end of the funeral, but I have a meeting to go to that day.

so there I was, minding my own business at work and drinking coffee. All of a sudden I forget how to drink coffee (?) and I start coughing a mouthful of coffee all over myself. Now I'm covered in coffee and I have to go home at lunch and change my clothes :P
at least I missed all the maps AND the computer entirely
