I'm excited for these Georgetown University Protesters. They actually got the University to raise the minimum wage for contract workers after a nine-day hunger strike! Tray(sp?) cool.

These entities, which survive in the dark, stay away from light because they can't survive in the light - not with the "dark biology" they have developed. Now, in this bowl, there are still some who seek the light and hold the light, but they're fewer, since darkness is the way of the bowl, and has been for a very long time. Therefore, those who choose the paradigm of light struggle more. It's a harder life.
Now in this metaphor, we'll say that suddenly the veil is taken away, and the bowl is flooded with light. The very first thing that happens is chaos for those who can no longer find dark sustenance! They'll be very angry that their "norm" has been upset. Next, many more light entities develop in the bowl because they've seen this light and they're absorbing it. Like seeds planted at night, they were waiting for the sun to come up, and they're responding. These are the ones who were never quite pleased with the dim light of the past.

Spelling bee winner creates buzz about virtual schools - RAY PARKER, Naples News
Sam Lawson can go to school in his pajamas. His daily commute to classes is measured in steps rather than miles. For this eighth-grader, the schoolhouse includes some self-discipline along with a computer, under the watchful eye of his mother. It works for him.
The Florida Virtual Academy is one of two public cyberschools that offer online learning for students his age. The Lawsons enjoy the flexibility of the program and say it gives them more control over their children's education. The virtual schools, just into their second year, are a radical departure from the traditional model of public education and have attracted some critics, such as teachers' unions.

The was a good story in this book about Bush throwing out the first pitch at the Yankees game following 9/11.
When Dubya nailed the first pitch with a strike the crowd roared. Thousands of fans raised their arms in unison and put their thumbs up.
Karl Rove was with George Steinbrenner in the press box and he said it was like being at a nazi rally.
My powers of observation infinitely superior to everyone's else's combined.
Matt K used to be my best friend, now he is my least favorite friend. Life is funny that way.
But I am much funnier then life could ever dream to be. Fuck you life, your not as funny as me.
I have the worst hangover ever, and I'm handling it like a champ. On a scale of 1 to five, my hangover is a number so high that is cannot be fathomed by even the papalcy. And I'm dealing with it with a even larger number. So fuck you inferior numbers.
How do you give a enema to a blog anyway Joe? I think a good way to start would be to get rid of Brian Wanless' posts from 2003. Also we could make matt Bright come up with a moniker that doesn't make reference to his genitals.

LPS-- I'm glad that Mattie let you know. I didn't want to post it on the blog.
There were hundreds and hundreds of people at the visitation last night. It was truly amazing.
Mike.... thanks to you and your mom for coming. It was very nice to see you there.
My address is now on South MacArthur Blvd.... 808 S. MacArthur 62703.
I hope all are well.... what was that I heard about free Sedaris tickets?
Personally I'm just not that big of a purist when it come to mixing animal hormones with fake hormones with human hormones with male hormones with female hormones. Hell, I'd inject cow's estrogen if it'd make me a better dancer.
The Go Team! are the Hit Matt K. See if you can put their music on our blog. I'll front the copyright fees with that 10,000 dollar raise you got.
And also, I refuse to call you artic fox.
If I had some bovine hormone I'd squirt some up my nose just to make a point. I used to be a dairy farmer and the hormone is harmless.
I heard a babtist minister in a Catholic Church today. He asked the crowd (ie; clergy) if they knew what he was doing there. It was funny. I liked him. I'm thinking about becomeing Baptist now.
My mom's got some stuff she wants to send you Monica. If your out there, lemme know if your address is still 1024 S. Walnut. Your in my mind, heart, thoughts, prayers, and .... picture book. Much love from my family to you Child Actor.

Do you really think the there is some major cover up with dairy lobbyists and the gov't? It just bothers me to see sites out there that are called milksucks.com. If you ask me they're "teet" parasites. Sucking of the teet of milk. Teetscukers.
Someone at work called me a tit sandwitch the other day. I immediately thought of you Matt Bright.
Washington Times -
Milk and dairy products do not promote healthy bones in kids and young adults, a Washington-based research group found after analyzing 58 studies.
"The review was prompted by a 'calcium paradox,' the researchers said. Though Americans are some of the world's highest consumers of dairy products, U.S. rates of osteoporosis and bone fracture also are among the world's highest."
Dairy has little benefit on children's bone health?
Study: Exercise, Not Milk Best for Children's Bones
Milk does NOT do a body good, counter to what most of you have been brainwashed to believe by the dairy industry. Even dietary supplements are showing little effect, which suprises me since that is what I rely on to get calcium.

Arctic fox
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
The Arctic fox (Alopex lagopus or Vulpes lagopus) is a small fox native to cold Arctic regions of the Northern Hemisphere. Although some authorities have suggested placing them in the Vulpes genus, they have long been considered the sole member of the genus Alopex.
Description
Arctic foxes have coats that come in two distinct color schemes.Foxes of the white scheme are white in the winter and in thesummer are dull brown, remaining whitish underneath. Foxes of the bluescheme are light gray in the winter, and in the summer aregray with a bluish tint.
Arctic foxes tend to be 50 to 60 cm long, not including a 30-cm tail. Theyare 20 to 30 cm tall at the shoulder, and usually weigh from 3 to 6 kg. Thus, theyare about the size of a domestic cat.
The species name, lagopus, means "rabbit foot," a reference to the thick hair on the pads of the animal's feet. Thehair helps reduce heat loss into snow and ice, and it improves traction.
Habits
Arctic foxes eat a wide variety of things, including lemmings, birds and their eggs, carrion, and plants. The most important of thesefoods is the lemming. A family of foxes can eat dozens of lemmings each day. When their normal prey is scarce, Arctic foxes havebeen known to scavenge the leftovers of larger predators, such as polar bears,even though polar bears' prey includes the Arctic fox itself.
The foxes tend to form monogamous pairs in the breeding season. Litters of abouthalf a dozen to a dozen whelps are born in the early summer, a very large litter size for mammals. The parents raise the young in a large den.
Population and distribution
Arctic foxes have a circumpolar range, meaning that they are foundthroughout the entire Arctic, including Russia, Canada, Alaska, Greenland,Iceland, and Svalbard. They areplentiful in most areas, although a few isolated populations are struggling.
The population of Arctic foxes tends to fluctuate in a cycle along with the population of lemmings. Because the foxesreproduce very quickly and often die young, population levels are not seriously impacted by trapping. Still, they have been eradicated from many areas where humans are settled.
The Arctic fox is frequently losing ground to the larger red fox. Historically,the Grey Wolf has kept the number of red foxes down, but as wolves have beenhunted to near extinction, the red fox population has grown larger, taking overthe niche of top predator. In areas of northern Europe there are programs to hunt redfoxes in the Arctic fox's previous range.

Q: You've fought over 7,000 fights as a professional wrestler. Is there one fight that stands out?
A: There was a dog collar match between Greg Valentine and myself. The promoters wanted a brutal match that people would keep coming back to see. That sounded good... in principle. And one time? But to do it every night? Never crossed this dumb wrestler's head. I had special collars made up with sheep's wool on the inside, thinking that it would be a little easier on the neck. Greg Valentine and I did this match about 40 times. He had me by the hair and he had his fist wrapped inside the chain and he was wailing on my ear. He was mad at me, not because I was beating him with a chain but because by the 29th match, we both had a rash around our necks from the sheep's wool that looked like herpes.

Also, he mentions that it is always the starving countries that can find the most money for defense. This is interesting and makes me think of North Korea--a prison-state of starving, fearful people, with a gangster with nuclear capabilites heading it up.
And we always turn back to America, the most hungry nation of all. Our bellies are full -- bloated even -- but our appetite is for resources, emotions, entertainment, religion, power, oil, energy, prestige far exceeds the rest of the world.
Those who feel lack are the ones who desire the most. Have you ever dealt with someone who feels like there is never enough? They are insatiable, and nothing ever pleases them for long.

I view very few pro-woman events. It's just so much more hip to be a gay man these days than a straight woman.
Even politically, it is much more palatable to get behind the gay man who says "I just want to marry my boyfriend" than the woman I heard at the GW inaguration protest talking about reproductive rights. She was speaking to the crowd about how thankful she was to get an abortion. It just didn't sound right.
It's a Sunday night in April (doesn't that sound nice? I'm looking at the snow-covered soccor fields out my window).
Sedaris ticket prices vary upon where you are sitting. For example:
Mezzanine Center Rear $27.00
Balcony Left Rear $27.00
Balcony Center $30.00
Balcony Right Wing $33.00
Mezzanine Center $35.00
Orchestra Left $35.00
Where to sit? They let you pick.

I had a bout of the "ideal insomnia" (as James Joyce refered to anyone who finished Finnegans Wake and started reading it again - It's a circular reference with the first sentence starting on the last page and the last sentence on the first, and it's hard to read.) at about 3:30 last night, and I came up with these gems:

"GOP strategists hope that the proposed changes to Social Security can transform a program that has long been identified with the Democrats, creating a generation of new investors who see their interests allied with the Republicans.
The administration's transformation of civil service rules at federal agencies, for instance, would limit the power and membership of public employee unions -- an important Democratic financial artery.
If the Bush agenda is enacted, "there will be a continued growth in the percentage of Americans who consider themselves Republican, both in terms of self-identified party ID and in terms of their [economic] interests," said Grover Norquist, the president of Americans for Tax Reform and an operative who speaks regularly with White House senior adviser Karl Rove."
"Most people who are investors tend to vote Republican," said Mehlman, manager of Bush's reelection campaign. "This creates conditions under which voters are more likely to support politicians who are pro-growth, pro-ownership, pro-free market."

My mom is being sent down to St. Louis this coming week for treatment as there is nothing more the doctors are able to do for her here. She is likely to be gone for the next 2-3 months for chemo and bone marrow transplants. they say she has a 20-25% chance of making it. Talk about grim.
Please excuse me while I go cry. .
She is now dealing with a doctor who only works with leukemia patients at a cancer treatment center at barnes jewish hospital down there (The HUGE hospital by downtown) It is a really great hospital so we are hopeful!!

"Vitamin K" trips that I was taking during 2001 and 2002. Not being exposed
to the concept of "reptilians" before these experiences, there was no
unconscious suggestion that influenced these encounters. While in the "fourth
dimension" (and I did not, in fact, have any idea at all as to what I was
actually seeing or "supposed" to be experiencing), I found myself in what I
could only refer to as a realm of archetypal human forms, or what I called (at
the time) the "soul matrix." As poignant as these experiences seemed at the
time, in retrospect I was really only hitting the lower levels of astral
existence. I recorded these experiences in another file, which I have
tentatively titled "Prolonged Exposure to a Near-Death Experience," which will
hopefully be released sometime in the near future."
