drat fink

blue jean baby, come what maybe

never swept you off your feet
never knew your favorite treat
never walked a mile in your shoes
never said, i have nothing to lose
never smiled without a frown
never saw your wedding gown

just a girl with low riding genes
you crack me up
with all my seems (showing)

sovereign of the seizure

dreaming of the seas
a blank spate of unease
from out of the trees (i heard)
cant slake the diseased word

the doppelganger effect
my face is all whet
and ive only reached the 12th floor
of the 39 steppes

mired in admired
my lags have grown tired
need a jab before im fired (up)
the song is over but im still wired (cup to cup)

the why-r-less phone
an attack of the growns
overcome with the gloom
see you reel soon

unless your afraid of my parents nagging

i heard the black man wheezing
and the barges barge din

i saw the guide lights gleaming
through the buildings reflecting skin

and the old ways peeling off
like fake painted grins

wondering if id had enough
of darkness in the city lights

of sailboats lapping
at trite rites

accentuate the positive fright
right?

say goodnight gracie
good night

huh?

taking pictures
its perfect
just one look
and youre suspect
now walk away
before someone
gets hurt

rivalting behavior

im happy to see that fifa is trying to combat fake injuries. theres nothing more odious than fake flops in basketball to draw phantom fouls and soccer players pretending to be more hurt than they are to prejudice the referees into ascribing more punitive penalties. i hate that win at all cost mentality. just play the damn game.

nothing plus nothing equals nothing

saw 13 Conversations About One Thing tonight. i wish it had been about one thing or anything for that matter. could not wait for it to be over. it was stilted and dull and a waste of talent. should have seen The Cats Meow instead or braved Cremaster 3. and theres always princess midriff and the lightsabres of doom but even the geeks and movie hacks can bear to give it only a passing grade.

book mobile

bought a couple of those things with alot of words in them and didnt buy a couple more. purchased James Bamfords Body Of Secrets: Anatomy of the Ultra Secret National Security Agency and Susan Tifft and Alex Jones The Trust: The Private and Powerful Family Behind The New York Times. Didnt buy but wanted Hilary Ballons New Yorks Pennsylvania Stations and Robert Caros The Power Broker: Robert Moses and the Fall of New York. now all i have to do is actually read them.

kickstart

my sister sent me a mattel classic football. and while growing up i had mattel basketball and mattel soccer, it was my duty to inform her that we had coleco electronic quarterback and not the mattel version. the coleco was and is superior because it had blockers and a passing option. whats football without passing. and, of course, when you scored a touchdown it would play the song Onward To Victory. i guess it was the notre dame victory march.

and dont forget to wake up tonight at 5am for the us vs portugal. im guessing theres a 25% chance i will. ive seen some of the 2:30am games and some of the 7:30am games but the 5am game is by far the most difficult to manage.

heavenly creatures

"The pursuit of that ancient heavenly connection has lately moved near center stage at NASA, which assembled some 100 astronomers, physicists, chemists, geologists and even a few biologists at the Space Telescope Science Institute on the Johns Hopkins University campus recently to talk about extraterrestrial life."
