No doubt you all have heard the recent ruling banning flavoured cigarettes.
Total bullshit. The FDA is clearly owned by Philip Morris and its power-run towards total dominance of the tobacco industry (because guess who is not affected by the ban at all? Philip Morris!). Not to mention the effect this will have on small specialty-tobacco sellers, who are already have enough trouble getting by.
Lame, Obama. Lame.
Not to mention I'm currently watching a thing on American Nazis on National Geographic...Bloody hell, this society. I can't buy cloves yet Nazis are allowed to have rallies in the streets?
That's some real bullshit.

Apologies For My Shitty Desktop
The reason I haven't been updating is because for some reason my desktop would type every word I wrote out in Hindi...I don't know Hindi. I'm on a different computer right now and managed to fix the problem, so hopefully I will be able to actually write in this damn thing.
Tom DeLay is going to be on Dancing With the Stars. Am I the only one really freaked out by this? The last things my troubled, sleep-deprived mind needs is to see Tom DeLay shake it on Primetime TV. The world is a hideous place.
In other news, I need money. Who wants to give me money?
Hey, if anyone is reading this then give me a topic and I'll turn it into a crazed rant. Any topic.
It is 4 in the morning and I am watching the Deer Hunter. This Bedtime Tea isn't really working. I haven't gone to bed before 6 AM (at the least) in several months.

Dead Whale Bomb
Earlier tonight I watched a Discovery Channel/National Geographic show about a dead sperm whale that exploded as it was being transported through downtown in Taiwan.
That's right, a dead whale EXPLODED in a metropolitan area. Blood and guts EVERYWHERE.
It didn't explode from a bomb or anything like that (though some people did think that originally. "Terrorists are now planting bombs in beached whales AAAAHHHH!!") Essentially it exploded because of the rate of decay from being in the heat and the gasses building up inside of the carcass.
Don't play with dead animals, especially 50-ton sperm whales.

Rock and Roll Bullshit
Okay, okay...I am actually REALLY sorry about neglecting you, my poor blog.
I'm going to talk about this June in terms of music. No, I don't really want to talk about graduation, the last few weeks of high school, how much I hated Prom, or how I feel now that I'm done with school. I went to some really awesome concerts and got some CDs and I want to talk about those.
Right now I am listening to the "Twenty Years of Dischord" compilation. It is well known that I have been a Dischord fan for years (and it just seems to get more and more intense by the year as I discover new bands that I like off that label), since I got into Fugazi at around 13-14 years old. The first part of the comp is 50 of Dischord's bands in a roughly chronological order, so of course it starts with the Teen Idles. The second part is a CD of unreleased materal and there is also a book the history of the record label and each of the bands on it.
You can imagine how much I am dorking out over this. Where did I get it? I found it randomly in the Melody Record Shop in DC in Dupont Circle. Yes, the record shop right next to the GLBTQ bookshop Lambda Rising. Cost me $25.99...Totally worth it to me.
About all the concerts I have been too within the last few weeks. I went to see David Byrne and Brian Eno at Wolf Trap as sort of a graduation gift from my two best buddies. It was too loud and crowded for my liking, and there were tons of 40-somethings drunk of wine coolers and beer trying to dance and screaming for David to play "Burning Down the House". He did...In a tutu. However, he did not play "Psycho Killer", which disappointed me a bit.
Next concert was free tickets I won to see John Vanderslice at the Black Cat. I adore John Vanderslice, and he's even more loveable in person! He's really sweet, great live, and really connected with his fans. He even signed my copy of "The Life and Death of an American Fourtracker"! I took my friend who I had gotten into John Vanderslice...And who STILL has my copy of "Pixel Revolt"...
The most recent one was Frodus. For those who don't know who Frodus is...Well, they are pure post-hardcore, spazzcore madness. You'll have to look them up. I went because I needed to get out of the house and I needed to hear some really powerful music and just let go for a while. They were absolutely amazing live, just pure passion and fury. And I got an awesome Frodus shirt.
Next post I may talk about cigarettes, cigars, and tobacco pipes (and not in the PC "No! No! BAAAD!!" manner).

Sorry....
I didn't mean to stop writing. Got caught up in other stuff and was frustrated from lack of people reading, so I took an unintentional hiatus.
If there's anything you would like to see me give my views on go ahead and tell me and I'll probably do it.

I'm waiting for the day when people make sense to me.
I've tried my best, but I can't make heads or tails out of what the fuck people try to pass as logic. Is humanity really that stupid or are we just so self-centered and ignorant that we can't make 2 + 2 = 4?
I want to give up on people, ALL people. Every now and then I find one that is able to see over the fence....And then I find 1,000 more that make me just want to nuke the whole planet.
Am I expecting too much out of people? I hold them to the same standards that I hold myself to and all I want is for things to make sense to me.
I really am better off just isolating myself from the rest of the world. Death Valley looks more appealing every day.
Apologies for the long wait for a new post, but it is not like anyone reads this anyway.

Obama kicks puppies.
I really can't fucking stand Barack Obama's rabid followers.
He's not the damn Second Coming of Jesus Christ. I'm sick of hearing how he's going to be the Saviour of America. Everyone is so goddamn in love with him.
To me he seems like a wannabe-Kennedy. Looks like John, talks like Robert...And I don't even like the Kennedys.
I hope he gets some real mud on his face...He needs to be brought down a few notches to reality before he finally trips and it does some real damage.
Don't get me wrong, I admire John McCain as an individual, but I probably wouldn't vote for him in this particular election (totally would have been great in 2000).
This election is lame as hell. Personally, I would have really liked the idea of an Edwards-Kucinich ticket, but that would never happen...My next one was a McCain-Edwards (crazy, I know, but awesome), and then Zombie Richard Nixon-McCain.
I'm completely serious.
