Been a while since I've posted.
Just thought I'd drop everyone a line. I am in the Army now so I won't get to do this very often. I am currently stationed in Fort Benning, GA (for BCT - 3 more weeks but I'm on leave for Christmas)
and after that I go to Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio for my AIT (I'm a 91 Whiskey or Medic) for four months.
Yeah. Well, maybe I'll post again maybe not but I wanted to wish everyone the best.
Cheers,

Welcome to Riverdale, Mr. Sanderson.
I can't understand why anyone wants to join the army when it's obvious they're being misused, betrayed, and sent to die, just so companies and their elite friends can economically rape countries no matter how much killing it takes. Joining the army now is not patriotic at this point and time. It's just foolish. If you want to actually do some real good, join the Peace Corps or something respectable like that. And the physical training of the army is mediocre shit.

You know, the white wall with black height lines across the back that police line people up against to either take their picture or have somebody select a suspect. Straight-forward angle, looking up a bit is OK, preferably very high resolution, or at least starting at the 5ft line. Just the wall would be ideal, but a suspect or four could be OK as long as they look wack enough and leave room to add in one more. Reps for whoever helps ^_^

So, while my dad is in Luxembourg with his boss, said boss' wife offers to have us (Me and my two siblings) stay with her family in China for a year. My parents say it's a perfect oppourtunity to broaden our knowledge of the world and culture and stuff. Learn the language too, or one of the different types of chinese they use, because China is one huge power point in buisiness. Or so i've been told.
So far, I think this might be a good idea. I don't know yet which part of China they live in yet though. It would be interesting at the very least. It's not like i'm going to the coal mines...right? -
I've had an impacted tooth that's been bothering me. About a month ago it snapped off while I was eating something crunchy, but since it was impacted I couldn't rip it out. So I've been wiggling it since.
Today I took a final tug at it while in the shower and it popped out sideways. Some moderate bleeding later, a took a look and it seems fine. No swelling, although my gum in the gap looks like a shriveled lump, kind of like if you put a balloon in your fist and tried to blow it up. So I'll be going crazy with the mouthwash for the next few weeks. There also seems to be a splinter of the root stuck in there, I wonder if it's safe to yank out...
Thought you all would want to know. -

This book pissed me off. Burning books because they are fiction, and couse dangerous thoughts? A girl that loves nature and asks why society does things a certain way is anti-social and should be killed or sent to a psychaitrist? what kind of crap is this? I swear to God that this never happens. but... 3 dimentional pornos (it's in the book) would be interesting...
( if you mention Michael moore or the Nazis I'll burn your copy of Id Anthology.)
WHat parts became true? Are books THAT bad because they challenged the new way of life? Will Overtype ever be eliminated from Microsoft Word? -

About 3 minutes.
I also downloaded the soundtracks to sonic the hedgehog 1, 2, 3, & & knuckles last night. Tasty tasty internet. -
I've never been more personally offended by hockey players.
I can't believe this. That's 3 more hockey players I'm adding to my "Hate List" along with Brett Hull, Todd Bertuzzi, Darian Hatcher, and Chris Chelios.
"OMFG, let's try to cure autism and wipe out some of the most brilliant minds known to man."
If we had no autism, then we would have no Isaac Newton, no Bill Gates, no Albert Einstein, no me, and quite a few people on this site would be gone, too. What's funny is that there's a really really high chance that those hockey players or their wives (or both) are autistic themselves, as it is hereditary.
I wish they had left an email address by that author, because I really want to write an angry letter to them. Perhaps the Athletes Against Autism site would be more helpful...
Man, what bullshit. -

Sounds like the jurry is still out on that, we'll see.
Snarboo, it sounds like when people here use the term "cure" they are not referring to ways to make it go away, but merely to look for effective treatments to help those that suffer with autism, and possibly to look to see if there are any factors in birth or early childhood which contribute to autism.It's in the US that autism is certainly on the rise. England is by a whole other continent.

DLD send them that hatemail and it'll probably be the funniest stupidest thing they've ever read.
A major reason for such a high rate of autism is that mercury levels are high as hell now, thanks to the EPA being utterly subverted. Or I suspose you think companies poisoning people into impairment and death has a wonderful side effect of creating some geniuses. Hey I wonder if there's any upcoming star athletes with three or four arms. Afterall, there must be physical gifts aside from mental.

I traded in my '00 Toyota Corolla and got a 2004 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback. It's roomier, higher quality and was a way better deal. Even though I had to drive from WI to MN to get it, I don't mind.
The exterior is still wet from the first washing

...first time out of the contry. And the only Vietnamies I know I lernt from Battlefild Vietnam. I somehow doubt the phrase "Enemy spotted!" is going to come in handy.
So if you don't here from my after a week, it would be safe to assume I died from a horrible venereal disease or chose a bad time to quote "The deer hunter".
cheers. -
Army Man, Army Man,
Does what ever an Army can.
Iron like shit, steal your pies.
Crush civilians just like flies.
Small kids, watch out for Army Man!
Yay, I'm joing the TA, just one small step in the opposite direction of the Job Centre Plus. I can either be a Biological Chemical Nuclear specialist type person or part of a tank crew either way my death will be quite interesting (assuming I die of my own stupidity). -

What's that, an absolute subject? Deciding is not on a whim; it's got to do with a lot of factors and it's a process tied to a context where many others, often very powerful, act. I like to decide too, but as anarchic and skeptical as I may like to be, it's still an impaired and conditioned activity.
As far as I see it (because I'm not going to presume to know his perspective) the "corporate media" Gokuma mentions is a group of distinct but not too varied competing enterprises that manage how information is presented. It's not possible nor commercially viable to filter everything, and instead certain subjects are buried or diluted to such a point that they become ghostly echoes or practically insubstantial. Gokuma gave an example even; you'll hear lots about Britney Spears' ass tattoos, and about the turkey pecking at Bush's balls, but little or nothing about the function of the institution that promoted and indoctrinated the perpetrators of vastly homicidal military dictatorships in Latin America unless you look really hard for the info.Thank you. Wellput.

There's so much more outside the mainstream without the media gatekeepers censoring shit and deciding what you can and can't see/hear. The mainstream is too damn narrow to limit yourself to and it's more about marketability than actual quality. Of all the nonmainstream bands I've seen, only a few sucked. The rest I'll take over some marketable crap any day.

What if some people find celebrities and their drama actually interesting?
Rage against the machine and have fun I guess. Chances are however, you're just buying into some other scene in an attempt to get away from pop culture. Nobody really gives a fuck either way.Let's take a trip to reality. The problem is that everyone's so interested and knowledgeable in who's fucking who and hardly anyone has a clue what the School of Americas is and how much death, torture, terrorism, and literally even rape that US taxpayers' money has funded. BTW, to try to dodge its reputation, the SOA has been renamed to the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation.

When you don't watch commercial TV or listen to commercial radio it's also quite possible that you end up being the warped one rather than actually being able to engage with it and criticise it from an informed viewpoint.
I suppose I should start watching a lot of TV again to recondition myself to be able to laugh at crotchshots, believe the whitewashed bullshit and lies the "news" reports, obsess over every minute detail of celebrities' lives, be entertained by moronic sitcoms and faked reality, and of course last but not least buy things that are advertised. Despite staying away from watching TV myself, I unfortunately get to see and hear more than I want and there's much more info on the internet anyway. I make no claims to be normal and I don't want to be normal if that's what it is. Here's an idea. Go outside. Get involved in things that are actually interesting.
