The Drunken Prayer

Our lager,
Which art in barrels,
Hallowed be thy drink,
Thy will be drunk,
(I will be drunk),
At home as I am in the tavern.
Give us this day our foamy head,
And forgive us our spillages,
As we forgive those who spill against us,
and lead us not to incarceration,
But deliver us from hangovers,
For thine is the beer,
The bitter and the lager,
Forever
Amen

I was reading Craig's List today to check out Fiel's room rent ad, and I found this very interesting ad:

http://newjersey.craigslist.org/roo/464560070.html

So this guy wants to "rent" a room to any "single female" with no kids. He only wants "friends with benefits" about once a week. He'll even pay for cleaning, laundering and provide 2 meals a day. And he'll give you a ride where ever you wanna go long as you pay gas.

It got worse when I found his myspace:
***WARNING*** - do NOT look at this Myspace if you are at work. I was horrified to find numerous barely clad men. I didn't scroll down enough to find out if it was just a bunch of models, or something significantly less in my sphere of interest. So click at your own risk:

http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=67708302

This dude is creepy. He lives very close to my house, so I kinda wanna break into his house and find his secret dungeon, where all the previous "room mates" are still trapped. Just Bizzare and creepy as hell. incidentally a room in Clifton isn't worth much more then $300-$400 so he must really be after a bargain on regular sex.

LONDON - Super spicy chili sauce being cooked at a London Thai restaurant sparked road closures and evacuations after passers-by complained that the smell was burning their throats, police said Wednesday.
ADVERTISEMENT

London Fire Brigade's chemical response team was called after reports that a strong smell was wafting from the restaurant in the heart of London's Soho district Monday afternoon, a Metropolitan police spokesman said, speaking anonymously in line with force policy.

Authorities sealed off several premises and closed roads. The Times of London described shoppers coughing and spluttering as firefighters wearing special breathing masks sought the source of the smell.

The paper said firefighters smashed down the door of the Thai Cottage restaurant and seized extra-hot bird's eye chilies which had been left dry-frying. It said they were being prepared as part of a batch of Nam Prik Pao, a spicy Thai dip.

"The smoke didn't go up into the sky because of the rain and the heavy air," The Times quoted Thai Cottage owner Sue Wasboonma as saying. "It's the hottest thing we make."

The police spokesman said no arrests were made in the case.

"As far as I'm aware it's not a criminal offense to cook very strong chili," he said.

Current Music: The best song you've ever heard. Ever. By the best band.
Yesterday I posted my motorcycle on Craig's List. Today it is sold. The buyer put it on a trailer and carted it away.
I feel a great burden lifted off my shoulder. This has been causing me stress for quite some time as I have been carting it around and such, and it's been costing me money and time to keep maintaining. Now I can devote my attention to the true motorcycle, my Bandit. I am thinking of outfitting it for touring, as I think I would like to tour. Hopefully Miriam and I will be able to make the back seat a comfortable place to sit. Right now, it's particularly unpleasent to sit on for any great period of time. I think we would both enjoy riding together through a variety of beautiful area's, but it's not worth it if you are resigned to an extremly uncomfortable trip.. I'm hoping a backrest and some more forward pegs will dot o solve the problem, plus some higher handlebars. I don't see the point of riding any motorcycle that cannot take TWO people in comfort... And with great swiftitude.
We had a great ride last summer in Princeton, a beautiful area to ride for those so inclined. The trees were in full bloom, and the temperature was warm, but not too warm. I don't recall exactly how long we were out there, but it must've been a good 3 to 4 hours. While I can comfortably say I think that we both thoroughly enjoyed the ride, there's no doubt we both had some discomforts related to the riding position. These were mainly back and knee related due to the pitched for nature of the seating arrangement.
It is hoped that higher handle bars and a back rest will largely alleviate most of the problems caused by the current seating arrangement for both rider and passenger alike. In addition, highway pegs will allow use of forward pegs for Passenger during long trips.
If the Bandit's ultimate comfort potential finds itself to be lacking... Then I shall have to find a superior solution. I have a few bikes in mind ...

So in one day I got about 8 offers. Craig's list definitely works. My bike was sold within 24 hours. I'm very impressed! And unlike certain OTHER methods of selling a bike (Big Bucks Auto... You know who you are. Don't do business with them. Or like me, you will waste a good 2 gallons of gasoline and probably $10 in tolls...) I didn't even have to leave our apartment.

"The greatest pleasure is to vanquish your enemies and chase them before you, to rob them of their wealth and see those dear to them bathed in tears, to ride their horses and clasp to your bosom their wives and daughters."

and

"Heaven has abandoned China owing to its haughtiness and extravagant luxury. But I, living in the northern wilderness, have not inordinate passions. I hate luxury and exercise moderation. I have only one coat and one food. I eat the same food and am dressed in the same tatters as my humble herdsmen. I consider the people my children, and take an interest in talented men as if they were my brothers. We always agree in our principles, and we are always united by mutual affection. At military exercises I am always in front, and in time of battle am never behind. In the space of seven years I have succeeded in accomplishing a great work, and uniting the whole world in one empire."

Jan. 17th, 2006 @ 11:30 am moving
I moved this weekend, and it got me thinking philosophically.

Remember that movie "Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless mind"? The whole concept of paying to have memories erased is starting to make sense to me.

If I had the memories of this weekend erase, it would be like I'd never done it, right?
Well, what if I had a contract with a company to erase my brain right after I moved from the time when it started. Would I just black out and wake up with it all done, or would I still have to do all that shizzle? By erasing that memory, could I then effectively skip the move entirely?

It wokred for my wisdom teeth. They didn't actually put me out for those, but they gave me something to make me spacey, and it was weird. I was awake, but I only remember about 10 minutes of the actual operation. The Doctor had told me they couldnt' chat with me and stuff during the op, because if I focused on something it could bring me out of it. I just remember thanking the attending nurse/tech for, say, vaccuming up some saliva, and they'd ignore me. But it was strange. I wasn't knocked out, but for all intents and purposes I "skipped" the surgery.

I'm thinking something like that for moving. Just have it all blanked out.

Of course, there are disadvantages. I wouldn't be able to whine nearly as much.

Current Music: Crystal Method - Trip Like I do
You have GOT to read this:
http://english.pravda.ru/main/18/88/354/16724_Condoleezza.html

Here's a teaser:
"Condoleezza Rice released a coarse anti-Russian statement. This is because she is a single woman who has no children. She loses her reason because of her late single status. Nature takes it all.

"Such women are very rough. They are all workaholics, public workaholics. They can be happy only when they are talked and written about everywhere: "Oh, Condoleezza, what a remarkable woman, what a charming Afro-American lady! How well she can play the piano and speak Russian! What a courageous, tough and strong female she is!

"This is the only way to satisfy her needs of a female. She derives pleasure from it. If she has no man by her side at her age, he will never appear. Even if she had a whole selection of men to choose from she would stay single because her soul and heart have hardened. Like Napoleon, Genghis Khan, Tamerlane, or Alexander the Great of Macedon Ms. Rice needs to fight and release tough public statements in global scale. She needs to be on top of the world."

I mean this artcile is priceless. It's the single most sexist and chauvinist thing I think I've ever seen that was meant seriously. And who the hell is this guy anyway? Some pissant minister in a barely second world country? "Hey someone criticized our overcharging the ukraine for oil. That doesn't make any sense... Unless it was a childless single older woman. Yes, someone like that would criticize us, perhaps to fulfill her sexual desires..."

Seriously, you can't even MAKE this stuff up.

Oh, we're moving tonight and tommorow but I'm too nervous to think about it.

Dec. 9th, 2005 @ 01:19 pm Finally starting to get better?
After being sick for many days, I'm back at work (after having travelled in the hellacious blizzard this morning).

I'm still somewhat sick, but I'm doing much better now. No fever for awhile.

The Doctor said I had the flu and a sinus infection. This is good, because it means they can do something for half of it, and theoretically help the other half. So I got some antibiotics.

In the end though it was no medicine of man, nor bed rest that cured my ailment - It was WoW. As soon as I hit level 50, I started getting better.

Okay, J/K. It's really because my wife took such good care of me. I'm sure the antibiotics played a small role as well.

Anyway, back to work.

Dec. 1st, 2005 @ 01:03 pm Back to WoW
Current Mood: thankful
Current Music: Bach - Bouree
I've been playing this game recently called Eve. It's an online game type deal, similar to Star Wars Galaxies and such. It utterly captivated me for days and hours, often at a time. However, recently my Battleship was destroyed and upon reflecting Ir ealized the game is kinda boring... It stated to feel like work.

So I cancelled my subscription and I'm back to WoW. I knew I'd relapse when I quit, but I needed a break. And it's good that It ook one, because I'm totally psyched to play tonight.

Other exciting things this week include blowing out my alternator, and getting hit by a bus. So in turn...

in a nuthshell, my brother's alternator died on the GSP. I went to help him jump it after work, and through the miracle of comminicable car illness, my alternator died as well. I'm not going to explain how, but let me just give you this advice - don't take a dead battery and put it into your car and jump it, thereby hoping said car will charge your batttery. It won't. It'll cost you $341.30 at pepboys. I should've rented him a tow truck. (Hell, that's practically a lease payement on a tow truck)

The bus deal was also interesting. I was in passaic with Miriam, and we were pulling out a spot. The bus was stopped at a read light, with about 7-10 cars in front of it heading towards the intersection. As the bus was stopped, Ib eing to pull into his lane. Said bus then drives right into my car.

I backed up and got out, it turns out the accident damage was most minor. a few scratches in places already scratched. The bus driver and a friend got out, (it was the "express" bus, not a real NJ transit bus) and started to tell me it was fine and he was going to go, but I insisted he wait while I decide. It's too bad he didn't leave, I'd have happily reported him as a hit and run.

Anyway, the only real zinger in the story is that after I agreed it was okay, the bus driver got pack on the bus. His friend says to me, "It's your fault. " To this I reply, "That's not for you to decide. That's for insurance companies to decide." He then taps his temple, "You need to watch where you are going, my friend." (For accent purposes, he was a native arabic speaker). To this I only said, "It's kinda hard to miss. It's a big bus. I saw it." and got in my car.

Truthfully, it was my fault. But in the ways of law, one must always deny it's their fault to the bitter end. The only exception is when proseuction offers you a sweet deal and things look grim, but this had hardly gotten that far.

So yeah, we got hit by a bus and thankfully have little to show for it.

We saw an apt in passaic, which was something of a nightmare, but my wife has already posted more extensively on the topic so I won't repeat it here.

Human Warrior

Humans tend to be the ones in the middle. Not as sexy as the Night Elves; not as stumpy as the dwarves or gnomes. As a human, you pretty much go with the flow of things.

As a warrior, you like to take charge of things. You feel that you're an important part of what's happening - and if things turn sour, you like to have a very large weapon on hand that you can use to negotiate.
