401-Keg

If you had purchased $1,000.00 of Delta Air Lines stock one year ago you

would have $49.00 left. With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of

the original $1,000.00. With WorldCom, you would have had less than

$5.00 left.

But, if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of beer one year ago, drank

all of the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling

REFUND, you would have $214.00 cash.

Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink

heavily and recycle. It's called the 401-Keg a recent study found

the average American walks about 900 miles a year. Another study found

Americans drink, on the average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.

That means, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon.

Makes You Proud To Be An American!

you.had.me.at.hello

I'm missing you so much, I'll see you die tonight
Just so I can get to you before the sun will rise
I know the signs are on and I feel this too
None of that ever seems to matter when I'm holding you

And I'm wasting away, away from you
And I'm wasting away, away from you

What have I gotten into this time around
I know that I had sworn I'd never trust anyone again but I didn't have to

You had me at hello.

I've never seen a smile that can light the room like yours (like yours)
It's simply radiant, I feel more with everyday that goes by
I watch the clock to make my timing just right

Would it be okay,
Would it be okay if I took your breath away?

And I'm wasting away, away from you
And I'm wasting away, away from you

What have I gotten into this time around
I know that I had sworn I'd never trust anyone again but I didn't have to

You had me at hello.

You gave me butterflies at the mailbox
You gave me butterflies at the mailbox
You gave me butterflies at the mailbox

You gave me butterflies (you are so cute) at the mailbox
You gave me butterflies (you are so cute) at the mailbox
You gave me butterflies (you are so cute) at the mailbox
You gave me butterflies (you are so cute)

You had me at hello.

If you know your Rocky movies, this is the song in Rocky IV after Apollo dies and Rocky is driving around in his car.

Sweet cover and an even sweeter original:

(
her clothes folded in the corner
her toothbrush in front of mine

her pictures on my bulletin board
her side of the bed with all the covers
her pillows next to mine
)

...that make me smile

guys.1.girls.-2

So a deal was struck up a few weeks ago:

"If I have to see Iron Man, you have to see Maid of Honor with me", she said. Seeing that I really didn't care what I had to do to see Iron Man, I agreed. After 2 hours of pure (non-gendered) entertainment, "Next time we are seeing my movie". Seeing that was the deal, I really couldn't fight it and seeing it was a chick flick, maybe there would be some half decent women in it to stare at. So we ended up going to the Drive In to see her movie, it just so happened to be the 2nd movie, so I had to sit through another crappy movie before I could sit through the original crappy movie. Movie #1..Only In Vegas or something...ya know, the one with Ashton Douchebag Kutcher and Cameron Diaz...ya I couldn't remember the name either. 2 hours later, time for Maid of Honor..yay. So I grit my teeth and sit through one of the crappiest chick flicks I have had to watch and I didn't have to kill anyone in the process. So the credits start rolling, she looks at me and says something about how she didn't like it and thought it was stupid. I could of told her that before the previews started BUT a deal is a deal. So as far as movie choices go....Guys 1 Girls -2.

oh and for the record phuck filadelphia!!

pens play their last game of the reg season tomorrow in philadelphia and I cant wait to see us walk all over philly...again!!
what would even make this situation sweeter is if we get to play them 1st round of the playoffs, seeing they are "fighting" for the 8th spot, while we locked up number 1.

...pirates season started...ya i forgot also
i hate to say this and be negative, but this is not "the year". i doubt it will be "the year" in quite some time. the pirates are a waste of a perfectly good stadium,city, and faithful fans after years of horrible seasons. i hate that our team shoots for mediocrity....we want to finish above .500 thats our goal, to not suck as bad as last year....DREAM BIG!

i hate these days....mad at everyone for no reason
wish I had the energy to go to the gym or run or just something
i could drink but that isnt going to help anything..in the long run atleast
i feel like im running at like 20% for some reason
some days are great and amazing but then i just get these funks where everything sucks
but luckily I love music and have cd's like storm the gates of hell by Demon Hunter
instant mood change
screw it...im going running....dark or not...im out dis bitch

Broken teath, a shattered jaw
Ten to one, behold my God
Wicked sons of heaven's loss
Raise your own inverted cross
King's of earth, iron fist
Serve the sacred you dismissed
Stand before your final day
Choke on every line you pray

Raise your glass to death
Not one second left

Wake the lifeless, die to fight this
Stand beside me. Storm the Gates of Hell
Wake the lifeless, die to fight this
Stand beside me. Storm the Gates of Hell.
Storm the Gates of Hell.

Coward's heart, a serpent's tongue
Stand to face what you've outrun
Fear of death, fear of pain
Bound to all you took in vain
No more lies, no regrets
Sever ties and hollow debts
Open eyes, live to learn
Or watch your blessed temple burn

Raise you glass to death
Not one second left

Wake the lifeless, die to fight this
Stand beside me. Storm the Gates of Hell
Wake the lifeless, die to fight this
Stand beside me. Storm the Gates of Hell.
Storm the Gates of Hell.

Hell Hath No Fury At All.

let me know what you think

new.sins.pt.2

so now that I have a chance to sit down and organize my thoughts, I thought I would go into the "new sin" topic a little more. I hope not to offend anyone, but it happens.

so if you read the article, there are a few new things now deemed sins by the catholic church:
1.Thou shall not pollute the Earth
2. Thou shall beware genetic manipulation.
3. Drug trafficking
4. Social and Economic Justice


....ya. I really dont understand how they can declare "new sins". Where is this going to stop then? If they feel they have divine right to declare new sins, what makes them declaring other things. Thou shall not (insert random quote here) and bam new sin. I really dont think the bible was meant to be amended like the constitution. If the bible is truly as divine to people as they say it is, shouldnt they be a little more defensive when someone goes and changes it. People will say that the change was needed because of the modern times, ok well if we are going to go down, Thou shall not download illeagal music, Thou shall not send spam mail, etc. I am at a total lost to this whole situation. I am not trying to put down the bible or the pope or the catholics, i am just trying understand where peoples faith is anymore. You should have faith in YOUR God, not what they are saying your God is. Have faith in yourself and the people around you. God gave you free will , USE IT!! Dont be lead blindly or think you have to jump through hoops to reach Heaven. If you believe in you're heart that you will reach heaven and see YOUR God, then you will. Dont doubt yourself just because someone said you can't do something, because THEY think it is a sin. I was once led blindly by organized religion and once you break free, you really open up and find out who you are. Have faith, love, laugh and live, but do it for yourself, not what someone says you have to do.

I recently watched a movie called, Into The Wild. I highly recommend it not only for the story but the theme behind the movie. Alot of great quotes in there and here are a few:

"When you forgive, you love. And when you love, God's light shines upon you."
" When you want something in life, you just gotta reach out and grab it. "
"I read somewhere... how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong... but to feel strong."
"Rather than love, than money, than faith, than fame, than fairness... give me truth."
"Happiness only real when shared."


...take me for who I am

Whatever It Takes

A strangled smile fell from your face
What kills me that I hurt you this way
The worst part is that I didn't even know
Now there's a million reasons for you to go
But if you can find a reason to stay

I'll do whatever it takes
To turn this around
I know that what's at stake
I know that I've let you down
And if you give me a chance
Believe that I can change
I'll keep us together whatever it takes

She said "If we're gonna make this work
You gotta let me inside even though it hurts
Don't hide the broken parts that I need to see"
She said "Like it or not it's the way it's gotta be
You gotta love yourself if you can ever love me"

I'll do whatever it takes
To turn this around
I know what's at stake
I know that I've let you down
And if you give me a chance
And give me a break
I'll keep us together, I know you deserve much better

But remember the time I told you the way that I felt
That I'd be lost without you and never find myself
Let's hold onto each other above everything else
Start over, start over

I'll do whatever it takes
To turn this around
I know what's at stake
I know I've let you down
And if you give me a chance
and believe that I can change
I'll keep us together whatever it takes

lullaby.spill.canvas

It's the way that you blush when you're nervous.
It's your ability to make me earn this.
I know that you're tired, just let me sing you to sleep.
It's about how you laugh out of pity,
'Cause lets be honest I'm not really that funny.
I know that you're shy, just let me sing you to sleep.

If you need anything, just the say the word.
I mean anything.
Rest assured, if you start to doze, then I'll tuck you in,
Plant my lips where your necklace is close.

It's those pills that you don't need to take,
medicating perfection, now that's a mistake.
I know that you're spent, just let me sing you to sleep.
It's your finger and how I'm wrapped around it.
It's your grace and how it keeps me grounded.
I know that you're weak, just let me sing you to sleep.

If you need anything, just the say the word.
I mean anything.
Rest assured, if you start to doze, then I'll tuck you in,
Plant my lips where your necklace is close.

While you were sleeping I figured out everything,
I was constructed for you, and you were molded for me.
Now I feel your name, coursing through my veins.
You shine so bright it's insane, you put the sun to shame.

(Oh)

If you need anything, just the say the word.
I mean anything. (I really do)
Rest assured, if you start to doze, then I'll tuck you in,
Plant my lips where your necklace is close.

If you need anything, just the say the word.
I mean anything.
Rest assured, if you start to doze, then I'll tuck you in,
Plant my lips where your necklace is close.


...thanks for a great weekend :)

see ya Colby
hello Hossa


yes yes, Colby will be missed. off and on the ice, he was one of the better players we had but thats the nature of the business and it was in the best interest of the team to trade him along with Christiansen.

People can complain all they want but this is an excellent deal for the Pens.

four.letter.word

ITS CALLED SNOW!!

Why is it that whenever that little white stuff falls from the sky, the drivers around Pittsburgh act like they have never seen it. Nothing annoys me more then when it starts to flurry and people suddenly put their 4 ways on and go 25 mph on the highway!! Now if there is like a foot of snow on the ground, I can understand the caution but when its barely flurrying....wtf?! This happened to me on the way home from work today. I take a few highways and a few back roads, and for the most part there was "some" snow on them, but not enough to declare a national emergency. If you are going to drive slow, atleast do it in the right hand lane, and atleast try to stay above 30 mph. You are going to cause an accident, not the half an inch of snow on the ground....grrr

day.in.the.life.of.me

Today was one of those days that as soon as I woke up, I hated the world. Alarm went off at 7:10 and I was already angry. Not sure why, just pissed off and wanted to damn the man. Breakfast then added to my mood, no effin milk...awesome. Try eating a bagel with water, it just might be the next big thing. So after I gagged down breakfast, it was time to make a lunch..wank. After opening and closing the fridge/freezer/cubbard several times, I decided to just grab a can of soup and hope for the best. I then grabbed a pear just for good measure and threw it in my bag. Out to my car to let it warm up for 5 mins as I stared blankly at my dashboard lights. On the road at 7:45 and I continue to hate the world. Potholes, traffic, and just the whole morning thing just keeps adding to the "I Hate EVERYONE" mood. 8:00 halfway to work and my mood has not yet gotten any better, so I decided to start my usual of routine of switching between the countless morning radio shows to keep me occupied...that failed. All the radio shows, except DVE on occasion, friggin blow. They all talk about the same crap, just at different intervals. Dumb story from that town, stupid story from last night, weather and traffic, then more dumb stories...commercial break. So I always end up on like BOB FM or friggin talk radio, atleast they keep me occupied. 8:20 pull into parking lot and get one of the better parking spots, mood increases. Turn off car, get bag and keys, head towards work...mood increasing still. Walk through doors, walk to my desk ( thats right my desk!! ) mood still on the rise. Set my bag down, check for messages, put pear into fridge, mood still increasing. Sit down at desk, log in, check email, launch sirius, get first cup of coffee, mess with co workers, mood is now gone from "I Hate EVERYONE" and "Damn The Man" to, "I love my job". Then from there on, my day is pretty friggin great. Add in a few texts from friends, stupid inter-office email forwards, and practical jokes, and my day is great. Then lunch time came and I remembered my lack luster packing job, mood decreases. But I persevere, I try to eat some of the crappy soup ( unsuccessful ), the pear was great, and I was able to snatch an energy bar from one of the guys, mood increases again. After lunch, back to work and being a geek ( which I rock at by the way ). 4 hours of programming later and its time to leave, mood decreases. I think afternoon traffic isn't as bad as morning traffic, but it still blows!! So 30 min later, I get home....and the roomates ( parents ) are raring and waiting to ask me about my day, mood greatly decreases. After a few seconds of "it was fine" and "yepp, another good day", I hang up my hoodie and put down my bag. Check my AIM away message, no love, change away message then crash onto couch. Akward dinner, then I retreat to the spare room for some privacy. Hours spent doing myspace, facebook, WoW, TV, Halo 3 or if I am lucky I have plans and I get out of here and interact with people that aren't related to me. Night usually wraps up around 11:30 or midnight..mood increases. Sleep is GOOOOOOD. Set iPod Home for 7:10...waking up to the them from The Boondock Saints, is the only saving grace in the morning. TV for a few mins, then I'm out......do it all over the next day.
