smoking and ignorant smokers suck

i was at that party last night and well smokers ruined it... it started with a kitchen jam and some guy came in and lit up.... man i was pissed... it's happened before... it was so rude and it still is... not to mention that there is a no smoking sign on the door... then to escape the stink i went up stairs to find a host or just to get away for a bit and well the host was allowing smoking upstairs too... i was pissed... so i just left... i left my booze and i left my guitars...

it was also unpleasant to have a smoking friend talk to me with smoke on her breath... ick... i was trying not to gag so as not to be rude but common... you stink... go brush your teeth people...

and for the record it has never been ok since i quit smoking to smoke in my basement... and on top of that don't smoke at my front down that just blows down the alley and in my hallway window and in my room... and don't smoke at the back door... that just goes right up in my bedroom window...

i hate smoke and i hate ignorant smokers... and if you want to be my friend give me some respect and appreciate the fact that i've been so far successfull and support me by taking your habbit else where... this is not a test... this is the way it is and how it will be from now on... smoking is dumb and i'm sorry i ever inflicted my old habbit on anyone... the power of addiction is amazing

take the golden "an" and take it in the van to stan

the plan has proceeded as planned... i even snuck in another ham sandwhich courtsey of the mother of niffty... this one was different though as it had lettuce... i think they were both equally as good...

so ya the plan is on track how ever i forgot that this is payroll weekend and well tonight probably won't go as late as i was originally planning... but it should still be good... if anyone knows anything about when and where be there because it will definately be interesting... that's it for now... i'll post more monday maybe

the plan and the stan

song of the day : dynamite walls by hayden

so the party at woody's was interesting it was quit jammin with me on acoustic bass and donovan on acoustic drums and some brushes on drums with the drummer from officer girl... highlight!

sunday was to rainy for much... but i got some stuff done... and of course some pool and some TPB... highlight!

monday was definately interesting... i had talked to the legend about drumming and he's also lookin for some work... i set up an interveiw with him for today... so after playing some extreme frizbee with cory and dj in the wind no less i came home and almost fell asleep... i was seconds into unconciousness when fiend called and asked about a game or 2 of pool.... it's rare that i will turn down a game or 2... anyways... it literally was a game or 2... but cory was there with his dad playing and they were almost done... so i won all my money that i've lost to cory back and then we came home... and watched some RAW... then he left... and it also turned out that i was gonna go and meet a woman i've been talking to on msn for a couple months... nothing serious but we seem to have lots in common and she claims to have mad skills at pool... so we put the talk to the test and low and behold "she's outta practise" she's still pretty good though... only girl i know that calls her shots... so after that we went to baba's and had a drink there that was interesting... after that we parted ways... we were gonna meet up again for some "non drunk" pool... but i think she's hung over and never got ahold of me... meeting her was the highlight!

today was a shed clean up and meet the legend kinda thing... that was all good... nice day for outdoors type stuff too... then i came home and got ready for tonight... had a shower and dug out some clean clothes... then i waited... but it turned out that smallville was on... and i thought that season was over... i stopped watching it last month... bah... and i thought lost was over 2 weeks ago...bah... it was on tonight too... i'm a bit sour that i miss a bunch of eps... but it was neet to see these season finally's good episodes... highlight!

the plan... tomorrow is all you can play for 9.99 at dooly's... also open mic at baba's... plus donovan and woody and i forget her name are playin a set i hear...

thursday is the night we've all selected to go to see the new star wars...

friday and saturday is slowcoaster at baba's.... and hopefully there's a performance or an apperance from the guys at "the saturday partys on king street" maybe even friday and saturday...

and of course the plan for sunday is TPB... outs PACE!

1 MONTH TILL THE LONGEST DAY OF THE YEAR

i felt a bit hungover today and awoken to a power outage that i beleive was Island wide... and my smoke detection system would beep from switching power sorces.... but other than that the light at the end of the tunnel was a drab a drearey day but i made the most of it... of course you don't realize how important power is till you loose it... you cant go shopping... which is what i set out to do...

i ended up at my moms who made me a sandwhich... one of the best i've ever had actually... thanks mom.... it's kinda funny... when there is no power people get the urge to cook or clean... you can't use a vacuum cleaner .... and my first reaction would be to clean the fridge... but if you did that then everything is at jepordy of going bad or what ever... since when the power goes out you really don't know when it will be back on.... so you want to keep the fridge closed as long as possible...


anyways 1 month till summer... doesn't feel like it... but the count down is on... watch out... wear your sunblocks

stress distress depression and the light at the end of the tunnel

ever feel like your spreading yourself to thin... you try to make everyone happy and they just piss on you for being nice? ever wanna just throw your hands up in the air and say that's it i'm done... everyone leave me alone... no more free bee's... no more thank you very much's? ever feel like the only respect you get is purely from being a complete asshole? no mister nice guy? ever feel like the moment you give some one an inch they take that inch and gouge out a peice of your soul and then use that inch to spread it over the yard like creamed cheese?

my phone doesn't have battery problems but i cant make it till 6 pm before it starts giving me the low battery sound.... and i leave it on charge till noon.... i have a friend who was somewhat stranded in the USA ....recently got enough money to catch a bus home... i offered as much positive insight into the situation as possible... and although it came naturally to me it was very draining.... i hope it doesn't come back to bite me in the ass...

ever feel like your the only one in the world that means well? never heard of the expression means well? i wouldn't be surprised.... ever feel like meaning well is a sad thing in a savage world? i've often thought that the advancement mankind has made in the last 20 years was the way it should have been for the last 40 years... and that racism and all the savage behavior of war and street gangs and poverty and simple fist fights at a bar are so savage that it was beyond comprehension that we aren't working together to further our properity as a species and to make out planet better... at least by preparing for ummm lets say an alien invasion or some day our planet maybe be enveloped by the suns transferance to a red giant or what ever stage is next in it's life.... it's time to or it's getting to late to prepare to relocate to another planet.... the words savage and civilization keep popping into my head.... but where is the civil of ization? i'm baffled.... well sorta... i under stand that people suffer from many different problems that can cause set backs... stress... mental problems physical problems personal problems... what ever happened to the great good of man though? the needs of the many out way the needs of the few?

well i don't know how i feel today... i'm going to do my best to take the next 3 days off... well tonight and the next 2... maybe even monday.... chriky

i feel fine

i was tired when i got some calls around 10 and managed to get back to sleep after almost an hour and a half.... but other than that i completed some work in record time and and played some pool successfully... i think over all it's been a grand day

an explaination?

last week i drank some sweet "o" about as much as i did tonight as i did last week.... i dont' feel as affected... time will tell.... mornings are the real test.... anyways.... i did open mic tonight in a sorta last minute fashion... although it was some old songs that my sis and i had worked on when we first started prepping... not to say that there weren't some rough spots but we managed to pull off some obscure stuff as a i see it..... and welll....

now i'm home.... i've been home for over half an hour and i don't know how but my duplex neighbors are rediculously noisey.... i could understand if they had a party happening... or if they were listening to bad outta time music real loud... i dont' hear any music... it's 2:30 or later on a wednesday night..... i could understand if one of them was overweight and hungry and going to the fridge.... but before i went to the open mic thing i've heard rediculous thump thump thump.... and it appears or "sounds" and "feels" that it isn't over... this has been going on since they all graduated.... i'm not surprised but i'm not impressed.... i can be a noisey bugger but at least i have my neighbors in the back of my head.... and on top of that as far as party's go.... i've never been bothered by "our" party goer's it's like we're all ninja's and our neighbors are all sumo wrestlers.... either that or that walk and climb stairs as heavey as any competition will allow...

i remember moving to BC.... my first couple of weeks was well the only place that lived with out collicutt other than with family... or to better put it home... so when i got there and i think the rumble started after collicutt got there.... it was one of those "i don't have to get up this early situations.... and neither do you.... and since i'm getting UI or EI and welfare and a student loan and taking it all for granted because i'm not from this country i'm from english and don't get in my face bloody hell and bollocks and ringo star is my relitive and i'm lee starkey and since your getting up in 10 mins i'm going to spend the next 5 mins slipping my weight a whole 210 or 220 lbs... (and i don't mean british currency) maybe heavier.,.. slipping that down each step in 20 second intervails.... and then at parties he was he was under the patio creeping out girls.... that's another story.... and still beleive it or not i miss that guy.... if anyone can send this to him... i wasn't the one... but stuff like that get's violent threats sent in your direction.... and it's not like anyone would have mess you up.... you reacted to it and smartened up.... thank goodness... or at least i hope you did.... although i've heard stories.....

so my neighbors.... they don't play loud music... the don't party to hard.... they don't bug us for stuff we don't have... other than the thumping and using our waste containers well it's a toss up with lee.... sorry to say... lee was in his own world... so are the neighbors.... i wish i could be around to watch them learn and mature... but i'm more glad to be moving.... which leads me to my closing statement.........

the last post of the classic is about bill cosby at his best.... if you've seen eddy murphy at his best he's talking about bill and richard at their best... and what i posted is bills number one probably... as anyone over 30 about bills best work.... something from that era will probably arise.... wow do i feel old.... i recommend you download the segment.... if you can.... it's proper...

it's not as long and works better when you hear it.... kinda like thumpin on the other side of a duplex

A Classic

God: (standing on a chair behind Noah, he rings a bell once) NOAH.
Noah: (Looks up) Is someone calling me? (Shrugs and goes back to his work)
God: (Ding) NOAH!!
Noah: Who is that?
God: It's the Lord, Noah.
Noah: Right ... Where are ya? What do ya want? I've been good.
God: I want you to build an ark.
Noah: Right ... What's an ark?
God: Get some wood and build it 300 cubits by 80 cubits by 40 cubits.
Noah: Right ... What's a cubit?
God: Well never mind. Don't worry about that right now. After you build the
ark, I want you to go out into the world and collect all the animals of the
world, two by two, male and female, and put them into the ark.
Noah: Right ... Who is this really? What's going on? How come you want me to
do all these weird things?
God: I'm going to destroy the world.
Noah: Right ... Am I on Candid Camera? How are you gonna do it?
God: I'm going to make it rain for a thousand days and drown them right out.
Noah: Right ... Listen, do this and you'll save water. Let it rain for forty
days and forty nights and wait for the sewers to back up.
God: Right...
Narrator: So Noah began to build the ark. Of course his neighbors were not
too happy about it. Can you imagine leaving for the office at 7 AM and
seeing an ark?
Neighbor: (enters whistling, with brief case) Hey! You over there.
Noah: What do you want?
Neighbor: What is this thing?
Noah: It's an ark.
Neighbor: Uh huh, well you want to get it out of my driveway? I've gotta get
to work. Hey listen, what's this thing for anyway?
Noah: I can't tell you, ha ha ha.
Neighbor: Can't you even give me a little hint?
Noah: You want a hint?
Neighbor: Yes, please.
Noah: Well, how long can you tread water? Ha ha ha
Neighbor: There's one in every neighborhood. (Shakes head and leaves)
Narrator: Well Noah finally got the ark built. Then he had the task of
gathering all the animals two by two.
Noah: Hey, anybody know how to tell the difference between a male and a
female mosquito? (Looking in a box) I told your rabbits before, only two!
(He puts box in boat) Whew, finally the last two animals are on board. Let's
get this thing closed up before God asks me to do something else. I'm six
hundred years old. I am getting too old for this sort of thing.
God: Noah!
Noah: I knew it. What do you want now?
God: You're going to have to take one of those hippos off and get another
one.
Noah: Why?
God: 'Cause you got two males. You need a female.
Noah: I'm too tired to bring anything else on board. You change one of them.
God: Come on, you know I don't work like that.
Noah: But I'm sick and tired of this. I've been working all day everyday
like crazy for months now, dawn to dusk. I'm tired of this.
God: Noah
Noah: Yeah?
God: how long can you tread water? Ha ha ha
Noah: Yeah, well I got news for you. You keep talking about this flood and I
haven't seen a drop of rain. Meanwhile, the whole neighborhood is making fun
of me. I told one of my friends I'd been talking to the Lord and he laughed
so hard he wet his pants. Do you know I'm the only guy in town with an ark
in his yard? People are picketing and calling the heath department,
strangers walk up to me and say "How's it going, Tarzan?" I am sick and
tired of all of this, you let me get a pregnant elephant . . . Do you give
me an instruction book? . . . No!!! Here I am standing under the elephant
and brrrrrrrrump! Right on top of me! I'm telling you, I've had enough.
You're supposed to see all and know all, well have you seen the bottom of
that ark? Who's going to clean up that mess? Not me, I tell you. I quit. I'm
tired of this. I'm going to let the animals out and burn that ark down. I
can't believe you made me do all this . . .
(God takes a watering can and begins to pour water on Noah's head)
Noah: (continues) I can't believe the mess you got me in and . . . and . . .
it's raining . . . This isn't just a shower is it? OK. All right, it's me
and you Lord, me and you all the way. I'm with you Lord. Whatever you
say....

WELL IT SNOWED

if i didn't know any better i would have thought the world was ending... no real amounts but at times it looked like a blizzard outside... and even weirder was it was not cold outside... sure people had hats and gloves on.... but i had my window at home open and it might have been a cool summers breaze but that's about it....

so as far as my future in canada goes... i think that if it doesn't snow again in may then i will probably stick around...... like as if nature was saying here's your summer but don't take it for granted as winter isn't that far away....

Prince Edward Island is the only province in canada that hasn't seen snow during the monthes of july or august..... in recorded weather history...

Seems

so perhaps my angst for winter and spring to be over is cause reprecussions.... it no longer looks like a 17 or 19 degree day.... this is suppose to be that day... we shold get 17 but forcast is for 15 ... but friday is forcasting flurries... if that happens i am seriously going to reconsider my future living in canada.... snow in may in unacceptable....

song of the day.... loveshine - motley crue

by the end of that tour i'd have permenant ear damage.... something that is, unfortunatly, one of the hardest things to cure.

i just read that in the autobiagraphy of anthony keidas.... "Scar tissue"

it's a must read...

today is 2 years 10 months that i've been living on pei.... minus the trips to vancouver and halifax ..... but it was july 7 when i got home... some people would view that as a step backwards... well i know i sorta looked at people like that.... but i think it had something with giving up and retreating.... i made vancouver my home and went out on a ledge and attempted the unknown.... "working for my father"

the father and thing hasn't been the healthiest relationship.... but since i've been employeed and our relationship is based on work it's different.... he's not schooling me on life... just bussiness... long story short .... i not only feel i've conquered the position and living on pei but i can have a conversation and i can make him smile... and it doesn't have to be work... the lectures he does give me are perfectly ok.... compared to the old lectures i'd say this is like recess and gym class and a feild trip... all in one... although i'd rather just be on recess .... another way to look at it... and it's not like this at all... but with his salary and being involved at the very least... i am starting to refer to it as a consultants fee.... and you thought lawyers were scummm..... hehe.... i kid i kid....


so ok.... leaves and grass is being cut... at the same time the city and bussinesses are doing yard clean ups and gardening.... i did find a spot of snow... more like melting ice at this point... but i'm sure there are alot of those.... either way.... the neighbors have some flowers sprouting.... i don't recall nature blooming this early on PEI.... in vancouver i could see this in march.... but here... in may... that's early....
and not a month early....
maybe grass cutting.... but well... we went from nice weather to a bunch of snow... to nice weather and more nice weather.... my friend billy went from class rooms to land scaping ... the lst 5 days have certainly been sunny.... that's extreme.... he was out today and it was 14 and cloudy.... thursday or friday was predicted to get to 16... and it did..... i was impressed with the 14 and cloudy today... it was like a bad summer day.....

there is a day this week that is forcasted for 17.... i'd put 10 donut holes that we get 19... some one should take me up on that... cause it's not a gut feeling.... it's more like wishful thinking.... but seriously... 10 donut holes.... anyone?

i was at cash converters today... i had a micro wave oven.... it's a 1981 look alike to janice mackays convection oven.... except it's not a convection oven... it's a straight up micro wave... that is it.... with brown extirior fake wood style paneling.... anyways.... cash converters doesn't take brown appliances... so you might want to mental note that.... weird eh.... they don't take floor polishers either.... ....

the last week has been a week of recooup and work and moving....
i spoke to someone today who asked me "how's life" i replyed something like interesting and unpredictable and fun.... and that's how i see it.... stress is good thing.... if you can avoid the ulcer then your laughing...

tonight is another party at woody's
although i wasn't there last week.... it made headlines... this one is low key... anyways.... that's it....

zzziiiiirrripppppp...........PACE!

i was gonna say i bought this and modified it... but well anyone reconize the police car? no? how about that 3 digit prefix on that number.... and well nothing against black people.... but i've never seen the few black people around here in the same vacinity as a cop car... and they never where those outfits.... anyway... check out that rad rim on that thing.... i want one 

i paid the last rent i will ever pay tonight

well i could go on and on about what i've done in the last week.... but really it was all just a different pile of the week before... ups and downs.... i hurt my neck enought to write my weekend off.... although with work and BS recovery wasn't really an option.... so anyways.... it's a month and 20 days till the longest day of the year and then the count down to winter is on ...

so i paid my last and final rent today... no more monthly lump sum of cash to throw away to something i will never own.... the deal on the house is supposed to go through on friday... that means that i should be moving in that night ... i hope....
of course i wouldn't.... i paid rent here... i still have 30 days to make everyones life misearable.... plus i can plan my move around hook ups... like internet... and power.... i don't know about tv.... i can download any tv show any movie.... and with the money i will save i could afford a dish....

i think the company is going to buy a new van... well an old van... it's 230,000 kms and 3300 bucks... it seems to be well maintained... air conditioning...

so a new house and a new van... holy.... of course these things have their down side.... but i'm looking at the positive.... that's the news.... summary is summer is coming
