One of the people on my friends list (lordsoth) has bought a car (picked it up on Halloween) and is looking for name for the car. Here is what I suggested:

“Sam”, short for Samhain. “Hal”, short for Halloween. “Sputnik”, “Myers”, “Omen”,
“Apocolypse”, and if you feel your car is, how shall we say, budget, “Worthless Piece of Crap That I Would Trade for a Box of Extra Creamy Kraft Dinner and a Vintage Tin of Kippers”. My final suggestion is “Adhesive for Laminated Plank Flooring” no real reason for that one.

Anyone else got any suggestions I can give lordsoth?

Ünited Stätes Toughens Image With Umlauts
WASHINGTON, DC—In a move designed to make the United States seem more “bad-assed and scary in a quasi-heavy-metal manner,” Congress passed a bill Monday changing the nation’s name to the Ünited Stätes of Ämerica. “Much like Mötley Crüe and Motörhead, the Ünited Stätes is not to be messed with,” said Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK). An upcoming redesign of the Ämerican flag will feature the new name in burnished silver wrought in a jagged, gothic font and bolted to a black background. A new national anthem is also in the works, to be written by composer Glenn Danzig and tentatively titled “Howl Of The She-Demon.”

Dear Readers,

I am sitting here in all my headachyness at work (ya I should be doing something much more productive than filling in questionnaires and journalling).

I went to the RUSH concert last night (hence the headache) and I gotta ask myself why do I waste money on going to concerts? I was in the 14th row, (pretty good you would think) but I hardly saw anything and was annoyed as heck most of the time. I had one guy with questionable personal hygiene skills next to me bouncing up and down doing a terrible air guitar rendition, people behind me tapping on the back of my chair (totally out of synch I might add), people standing in front of me who are at least a foot taller and the stench of marijuana everywhere. What a waste of money.

Signed,
Miserable and a Hundred Bucks Poorer.

And the final results are in…

In no particular order…

1) tipped uterus
2) misaligned falopian tube and overy
3) polycystic overies
4) gallstones

What does this mean? Surgery in a couple of months…lots of stuff for pain now…

But you know what? It could have been much worse.

Happy Birthday to Slonik!

Have fun on your day but don’t grow up….lol.

I really love my job and I do it well but I spend too much time on the Internet while at work. Big Brother is watching and I will probably someday get in shite over it. Maybe I don’t have enough work to keep me busy but I don’t want anymore, it would cut into my online time…lol.

My butt is sore from sitting in this damned chair.

If you could instantly master one skill or talent, what would it be? What would you do with your new talent or skill that you couldn’t do before?

ESP. Then I could win the lottery, my second choice would be Oration so I could negotiate world peace. You give a little you get a little…lol.

You have won $100,000 in a contest, but you must give it all to charity. Who (or what organization) would you give it to?

Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. I have lost a few friends to this disease.

Just some quotes from a great book (Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaimon) I read a long long time ago and found again…

*~*~*~*~

“God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players [i.e. everybody], to being involved in an obscure and complex variant of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won’t tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time.”

*~*~*~*~

“It wasn’t a dark and stormy night.

It should have been, but there’s the weather for you. For every mad scientist who’s had a convenient thunderstorm just on the night his Great Work is complete and lying on the slab, there have been dozens who’ve sat around aimlessly under the peaceful stars while Igor clocks up the overtime.”

*~*~*~*~

“Many phenomena — wars, plagues, sudden audits — have been advanced as evidence for the hidden hand of Satan in the affairs of Man, but whenever students of demonology get together the M25 London orbital motorway is generally agreed to be among the top contenders for exhibit A.”

*~*~*~*~

“Nothing about [Crowley] looked particularly demonic, at least by classical standards. No horns, no wings. Admittedly he was listening to a Best of Queen tape, but no conclusions should be drawn from this because all tapes left in a car for more than a fortnight metamorphose into Best of Queen albums.”

Wow, sometimes you learn a whole new dimension of people when you can see inside their head. And then I hear myself saying a lot of “Me too! I have been there and I know what you are talking about.”

Fascinating…
