For so long everything seemed so far in the future. But now, with only a few short hours before departure, this everything has become maddening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;or is it madness?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i have quite a few pairs of socks now.  definately more than i have ever remembered owning at once.  for some that would be exciting news worth a blog entry in itself.  for me. an occurance worth mentioning in the second paragraph. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;or third?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is funny that i have been holding off blogging for some time, in order to present some sort of wisdom pre-departure --  a funny storey or perhaps an observation of sorts.  but nothing.  i have been so busy with stuff.  filing forms out.  talking to people about filling out forms.  getting forms faxed, mailed, emailed.  mailing forms.  THis is all in the name of moving.  it does become difficult.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I sit on the floor now.  I decided to move the computer desk before the computer.  The phone is disconnected but i have internet.  couch but no table.  plates but no cups.  I will not miss the cold showers.  i will not miss the warm water at night.  i will not miss the rodents.   i will not miss the leaky pipes.  everything else i will miss dearly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So we have decided to create a blog that will focus solely on the trip.  I will link it later but I hope to post in both along the way.   for now it is called pho bun.  why? well, we are pho. we are bun.  we are pho bun.  it is the only way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There will be more to come--there always is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but for now....&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7380318-111036028706874096?l=brantalope.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/feeds/111036028706874096/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7380318&amp;postID=111036028706874096' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/111036028706874096'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/111036028706874096'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/2005/03/well-time-has-come-nows-time-to.html' title='well, the time has come (nows the time to begin..er...something)'/><author><name>Brant</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03558287788901288243</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='19' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/189/1693/640/Untitled-1%20copy.1.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380318.post-110944437316663496</id><published>2005-02-26T10:53:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-02-26T10:59:33.166-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Tired is a Four letter word</title><content type='html'>Welcome to Saturday.  I know this because the Cosby show is not on.   I have not opened the blinds as of yet but i am expecting to see the same old sunshine.  The closer I get to leaving this place it seems the more I am enjoying it.  THats how it seems to go I guess.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So this week was in the productive side of things I guess.  Apart from the Cosby show and tennis matches, I have managed to get a week closer to leaving.  I have much to do still, and I fear it might not get done if I dont do anything...funny how that goes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So.&lt;br /&gt;I have not made a list.&lt;br /&gt;a list i think might make everything more real, but a list might also freak me out -- especially if there are more things to do on the list than time.  I should probebly refrain from putting  on the list things that might take me for than a couple weeks then.  because that is all the time I have left in this country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Right.&lt;br /&gt;socks.&lt;br /&gt;eat.&lt;br /&gt;damn...this is why i dont make lists.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7380318-110944437316663496?l=brantalope.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/feeds/110944437316663496/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7380318&amp;postID=110944437316663496' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/110944437316663496'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/110944437316663496'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/2005/02/tired-is-four-letter-word.html' title='Tired is a Four letter word'/><author><name>Brant</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03558287788901288243</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='19' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/189/1693/640/Untitled-1%20copy.1.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380318.post-110906556157085760</id><published>2005-02-22T01:46:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-02-22T01:46:01.570-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/189/1693/640/hunter%20copy.jpg'&gt;&lt;img border='0' style='border:1px solid #000000; margin:2px' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/189/1693/320/hunter%20copy.jpg'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;a href='http://www.hello.com/' target='ext'&gt;&lt;img src='http://photos1.blogger.com/pbh.gif' alt='Posted by Hello' border='0' style='border:0px;padding:0px;background:transparent;' align='absmiddle'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7380318-110906556157085760?l=brantalope.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/feeds/110906556157085760/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7380318&amp;postID=110906556157085760' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/110906556157085760'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/110906556157085760'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/2005/02/blog-post_22.html' title=''/><author><name>Brant</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03558287788901288243</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='19' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/189/1693/640/Untitled-1%20copy.1.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380318.post-110906466901094148</id><published>2005-02-22T01:17:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-02-22T01:31:09.013-08:00</updated><title type='text'>It was almost too good to be true...TRIBUTE to HST</title><content type='html'>Tis the war of the words.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;an owl is about.  it is a strange thing.

They seemed to mesh at that point so without hesitation I went and made coffee in order to make sense of the day.  The dog was asleep on the couch in the same position as when I left her the night before. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The calendar is strange to me at this point.  I have looked at it alot.  I have noticed that February and March fall on the same days (that being saturday feb 5 is also saturday march 5).  I am certain that this must confuse people that use the calendar more than myself.  But the calendar seems to be important at this stage in my life for it sets me straight.  If not for the calendar I would lose all sense of days and, in fact, might lose track of months (especially since feb and march are too damned similar)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What would alf do???&lt;br /&gt;not much i am guessing&lt;br /&gt;but what do i know&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well, i do know that i am listening to jonny cash and thinking about tennis.

First of all, I do like my new shoes. I know that those around me have had to listen to the complaints about the ventalators. I however realized through my adventures through the valley of the logs last evening that the ventalators are truely a remarkable feat(feet) in footwear technology.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;technology = appropriation? or...&lt;br /&gt;technology requires appropriation?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes last evening...i am still in recovery mode from that.

I will celebrate in the appropriate ways tomorrow -- by surrounding myself with friends and such.  Tis that simple.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fact:  The Brant goose spends two-thirds of its time on a beach 150 km north of here.   However, this time of year the Brant is nowhere to be seen.  Some call this migration.  I call it magic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fact:  There is a difference between a traditional 'time share' and the newer 'point share'.

Only a few days into retirement and structure is fading fast.  My beard is filling out nicely though, and with my toque and big ole coat i am finding that people are not sure whether to offer me change or not.  Oh well, the novelty will wear off.&lt;br /&gt;Christmas was grand -- I went and found snow up a mountain for the event.  My family was as crazy as usual.  I did manage to get in a good day of hiking in the snow before a storm took over the landscape and forced me back.  I also managed to have a rather rowdy night of drunken toboganning in which myself and my brother-in-law challanged a brother/sister team who had been drinking all day and were had problems speaking -- down the ski hill in an all out full contact toboggan race.  Of course we had the advantage of actually having toboggans.  They chose to peel off the eight foot square foam that was wrapped around a ski chair pole for to protect it from lousy skiers.  The race began and, well, I looked back at one point to see the brother/sister team flying right into the woods.  More importantly of course is that I won the race.&lt;br /&gt;New Years came and went as they tend to and now I am locked in a Victoria snowstorm.  Which means the whole city is shut down.&lt;br /&gt;2005. so far, so good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7380318-110521296503337087?l=brantalope.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/feeds/110521296503337087/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7380318&amp;postID=110521296503337087' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/110521296503337087'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/110521296503337087'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/2005/01/sunday-morning-sometimes-happens-on.html' title='Sunday Morning Sometimes Happens on Saturday'/><author><name>Brant</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03558287788901288243</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='19' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/189/1693/640/Untitled-1%20copy.1.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380318.post-110452876217830222</id><published>2004-12-31T13:32:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2004-12-31T13:32:42.176-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/189/1693/640/wellsJuly0c38-vi%20copy.jpg'&gt;&lt;img border='0' style='border:1px solid #000000;

What a name for a sports game console set.</title><content type='html'>Today is the shortest day of the year, and I am in my office with the blinds pulled down. I was trying to avoid light completely today but it would make my busy day of playing solitaire tricky. Today will be followed by longer days…for six freaking months. I know I am stating the obvious but I feel it is worth mentioning.&lt;br /&gt;Christmas is approaching fast, and I finally caved in and dropped by the big W on my way home from leaving sweet meg at the airport. I stuck around to make sure she made the plane for the security peeps were examining shoes…and I believe that the new anti-terrorist legislation defines miss-matched socks as a form of subversive behaviour that would result in a nasty look and some rehearsed nasty (almost super-nasty) questions. The man before her — gods bless him — was in his nineties and had to be helped out of his stroller to make it through the metal detector. It beeped and those jumpy guards immediately surrounded him and tried to determine where the weapons were hidden. It got ugly when guards mistook the old man falling asleep while being searched for some tactic used in one of those terror videos you can get on ebay. Luckily for sweet meg, her named was announced and she was ushered through the line, socks and all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"Now Heads of State who ride and wrangle,&lt;br /&gt;Who look at your face from more than one angle,&lt;br /&gt;Can cut you from their bloated budgets&lt;br /&gt;Like sharpened knives through Chicken McNuggets "&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The big W was an event that I must admit makes me a little funny. I think it is a combination of my height and lack of direction in confined spaces. All I could see were heads moving in every direction and various speeds. It makes me dizzy and praying to god that I can find aisle 7 in record time without being smoked by a shopping cart or stepping on someone's child. Aisle 7 was chaos. Filled with young mothers — some with their daughters — looking at all the new dolls, or ponies, or tea sets. I was told the best gift for a 3 year old was something to do with a log and a number of squirrels (bunnies would be the substitute) Nothing. Just dolls and ponies and tea sets.&lt;br /&gt;Big W-1 Brant –0&lt;br /&gt;I settled on two gifts for the niece and nephew. A truck and a winnie the pooh game, which I will most likely be playing throughout the holidays until the batteries go missing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"I don't need no wheels I don't need no gasoline&lt;br /&gt;'Cause the wind that is blowing Is blowing like a smoke machine"&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The previous weeks have been consumed by consuming and consumption.&lt;br /&gt;Until yesterday I had not shopped for gifts. I have not decorated my apartment. I have not sang a carol, drank an egg-nog, wrote a card or seen snow. This city would continue along is mild ways if it wasn’t for the holly and the cedar boughs latching on to doors, and the music themes switching from ego-centric love ballads to long-winded repeat poetry-au-mais wishing goodwill and Christ to all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have I missed anything?&lt;br /&gt;Oh yes indeed…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last week was the week of Christmas parties. The media threw one for all of us non-elected types. We crammed into their space and drank their beer — trying to fit faces to articles, and determining who wrote what about us — We waited patiently for some tidbits of gossip. None came of course. The gears switched to another party down the road…one needing secret passwords and handshakes. Once in, me, ziggy, sleepy and co learned how the other side socialized. We took note of who ate the most sandwiches, who did the best roboto, who was secretly spying on the group, and who forgot to wear their wedding ring.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tis the Season&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7380318-110365585106872109?l=brantalope.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/feeds/110365585106872109/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7380318&amp;postID=110365585106872109' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/110365585106872109'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/110365585106872109'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/2004/12/bowling-live-what-name-for-sports-game.html' title='Bowling LIVE!

Here are my predictions:&lt;br /&gt;1. Football game: I will arrive late, after the kickoff and the pool has been picked.  Feeling sorry for me, my mother will give up some of her picks to give to me.  I will feel bad about that and eventually the whole pool will be redrafted.  There will also be a long list of vegetarian 'friendly' snacks offered to me, and discussion will go on about meat until it becomes ackward for everyone.  Dad will offer me a beer, i will accept.  BC will have such a lead by halftime that I will be more interested in the commercials. I will lose the halftime pool.  I will lose the end game pool.  I will leave as soon as the game ends, citing previous engagements. (true)&lt;br /&gt;2. Potluck:  I will arrive late, not sure whether to take my shoes off or leave them on..i will immediatly look at peoples feet.  shoes will come off.  i will pull out humos and pita and place it with all the other dishes of humos and pita.  I will talk to my old friend about the past and meet the other few people there..then eat some pita.  there will be some sort of activity which i would not normally do, but given the circumstances, feel that it would be lame if i didnt participate (i will guess 'pin the tail')  I will cite early work and duck out within the hour.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Okay, I will write what really happened tonight...wish me luck. &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7380318-110106561150732573?l=brantalope.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/feeds/110106561150732573/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7380318&amp;postID=110106561150732573' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/110106561150732573'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/110106561150732573'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/2004/11/football-and-potluck-predictions.html' title='Football and Potluck -- Predictions'/><author><name>Brant</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03558287788901288243</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='19' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/189/1693/640/Untitled-1%20copy.1.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380318.post-110101852989562339</id><published>2004-11-20T22:28:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2004-11-20T22:28:49.896-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/189/1693/640/paul%2520martin%2520scream%20copy.jpg'&gt;&lt;img border='0' style='border:1px solid #000000; margin:2px' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/189/1693/320/paul%2520martin%2520scream%20copy.jpg'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;a href='http://www.hello.com/' target='ext'&gt;&lt;img src='http://photos1.blogger.com/pbh.gif' alt='Posted by Hello' border='0' style='border:0px;padding:0px;background:transparent;' align='absmiddle'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7380318-110101852989562339?l=brantalope.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/feeds/110101852989562339/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7380318&amp;postID=110101852989562339' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/110101852989562339'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/110101852989562339'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/2004/11/blog-post_20.html' title=''/><author><name>Brant</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03558287788901288243</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='19' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/189/1693/640/Untitled-1%20copy.1.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380318.post-110091333551798554</id><published>2004-11-19T17:15:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2004-11-19T17:15:35.516-08:00</updated><title type='text'>The Infinite Cat Project - Cats watching cats watching cats.

I dont know where it came from. perhaps i was walking by a soft rock radio station being played in the maze of offices i must pass from my desk to the washroom.  Wherever it came from i must admit it really pissed me off. It creeps in without resistance, the commercials, the sales the freaking MATH sweaters which, although i love, are as hot as a 1985 cabbage patch kid in this town.  I think of my friends in colder places that have to scrape there windows and warm up their cars.  I think there is no escape...except for turps, who will be spending christmas fighting with monkeys who not knowingly are throwing turds at the turd burgler himself.  then i chuckle, whistle my freakin' whitney houston 'christmas heaven and baby jesus' ditty, and let the holiday cheer suck my soul. (a little dramatic i know.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Artists who i would like to hear do a christmas ditty:&lt;br /&gt;1. wesley willis&lt;br /&gt;2. bob marley&lt;br /&gt;3. old dirty bastard&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;okay, now a few that are not dead:&lt;br /&gt;1.

I could almost see my house way down cook st., as i tried to scale down the loose spongy moss. I thought i found a trail but it led to a cliff...perhaps i will find a number of bodies piled at the bottom...having the same poor judgement as myself.  It wasnt the moss that made me fall, or the rocks with water dripping out of its pores...it was a rabbit, well two rabbits if that makes it any less retarded.  It just jumped out behind a shrub...i think i even screeched as i jumped. the garry oak branch that was keeping me rooted to the cliffside snapped and down i go. on my ass.  down the mountain.  I stopped with no harm done, but realized that i couldnt get back up to where i was and down was just a cliff.  dang...everything i learned about hiking alone i neglected. i was the new official poster boy for stupidity.  i had told only one person i was hiking -- but told them a different mountain.  I had no water, no rain gear. one layer of dark clothes.  not even a wallet so they could identify my stupid body if i was ever found again.  But then it occured to me that i could hear the cars driving by and there was no way that i couldnt slide down the mountain, at most twist an ancle or wrist..and drag myself to a road. &lt;br /&gt;I dont know how i really got down the cliff but i managed to get into the forest where it was even darker and stumbled through the firs and giant maples for 20 minutes until i found a trail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7380318-109987714536085683?l=brantalope.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/feeds/109987714536085683/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7380318&amp;postID=109987714536085683' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/109987714536085683'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7380318/posts/default/109987714536085683'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://brantalope.blogspot.com/2004/11/slippery-slope-no-joke.html' title='The Slippery Slope (No Joke)'/><author><name>Brant</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03558287788901288243</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='19' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/189/1693/640/Untitled-1%20copy.1.jpg'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380318.post-109979308345893299</id><published>2004-11-06T18:04:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2004-11-06T18:04:43.456-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/189/1693/640/jiggy.jpg'&gt;&lt;img border='0' style='border:1px solid #000000;

&lt;span style="color:#ffcc99;"&gt;I had 2 pieces of sourdough toast.  One had peanut butter -- the other peach jam.  One extra large coffee with cream.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#c0c0c0;"&gt;Lunch:&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color:#ffcc99;"&gt;I had day old sushi.

I ate it when it was too hot.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have come to the conclusion that i really dont understand the american electoral system.  I mean, i understand how it works but i am struggling with the 'why' factor.  Regardless of whether a different system was in place, I fear the outcome would have been the same.  They were unable to trade in one lamppost for another slightly newer one.  Would it have made a diff?  Would the world be a better place.  Or is there just no good tv on this week.&lt;br /&gt;I am hungry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>Needless to say...needless</title><content type='html'>I focussed on the eclipse last night with squinty eyes.  It struck me that if I had seen an eclipse before, it had been removed from my memory...blasted robots.  It did impress me though-- as those kind of things do, and I wandered off for more beer.  I found myself in a rather heated debate with my cohort on route to the tavern regarding the seemingly direct corrolation between the steady rise of consumerism and the frequency of lampposts plauging our town.  I took the rather crazy view that they really had nothing to do with each other -- while ziggy with a belly full of strogbow deliverd a most ambitious narrative involving baby strollers, satan, a bag of salt, and the corporation that holds a monopoly over the lamppost distribution in this fine city of hanging baskets.
