| Bio: | "It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."

sometimes like animals more than people. 101. i had about ten facts on here i had to edit out. I'm not going to tell the story the way it happened. I'm going to tell it the way I remember it. "Art is why I get up in the morning. My definition ends there. It doesn't seem fair that I'm living for something I can't even define. There you are in the mean time." there are two characters from film/tv that i relate to the most in my life...they are both blondes and i think that they hide their intelligence behind a facade of light heartedness and chipper demeaner...much like myself... the first of these is charlene from designing women: "Y'know, I don't know why more people can't raise their kids the way Andy Taylor did. I mean, Opie had to work for everything he got. Y'know when he did make a mistake or he wanted to do something stupid, Andy never just came right out and said no. Y'know like the time Opie wanted to move out when he was eleven to get his own place........... Andy helped him save his little allowance --- which if I remember right at the time was 50 cents a week --- and Andy put it in the bank. So instead of having a big fight about it, y'know, Opie is all the time thinking that someday he's gonna own this house, y'know --- even though Andy knew full well what the property values were in Mayberry, and that at the rate of 50 cents a week you'd be 82 before you could even afford the inside of an outhouse. (pausing to think) Y'know when you get right down to it, Andy tricked Opie. wish I hadn't started this --- now I'm upset!" "I haven't felt this bad since I was in high school and I developed this temporary allergy to domestic meat. My poor parents had to mail order hippopotamus steaks. I'm not kidding, y'know. Until they finally figured out I could have stuff like squirrel and rabbit and 'coon, y'know. Sometimes they even fed me 'coon for breakfast..........." the second is Michele Weinberger, played by lisa kudrow, who is one of my favorite people ever: "No. Um, well, ordinarily when you make glue first you need to thermoset your resin and then after it cools you have to mix in a Poxide which is really just a fancy schmancy name for any simple oxygenated adhesive, right? And then I thought maybe, just maybe, you could raise the viscosity by adding a complex glucose derivative during the emulsification process and it turns out I was right." also, a parable... a man takes his daughter aside one day, and in three pans of boiling water places carrots, eggs(in the shells), and coffee grounds. The water, of course, representing adversity, made the carrots soft and weak, the eggs hard, but the coffee grounds actually transformed the water. so there you have it, welcome to my journal...and be ready for some meaningful shit surrounded by a whole lot of confusion... | |||||
