Kinda Like Chicken

i'm no go-getter.

i admire those who can be open and honest about all their desires, even if they do not acquire them in the end.




i can't even look you in the fuckin' eyes.

Meaning

my life is currently lacking meaning. i feel like i'm just living day-by-day, with no greater purpose or even something to look forward to. i'm not unhappy, just feeling a little empty and uninspired. i have not even a single insightful thought in my head. i suppose we all get like this sometimes.

i've completely let myself go.
bad.

i have a will to improve.
good.

Butter

learned something new today:
butter = no more burnt grilled cheese sammies.


thanks, JPL.

Fire and Ice

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

-- Robert Frost, 1923

Lucky Bastard

Alan Fishman - CEO of Washington Mutual - had only been in office for 17 days when WaMu failed. however, since it was guaranteed by contract, he earned $11.6 million in cash severance, on top of the $7.5 million signing bonus for taking the job. this bitch got $19.1 million for 17 days of "work". that's more than $1mil a day!

this makes me a little angry. how many people have lost jobs, homes, businesses, and money due to this crumbling economy? and this jackass gets this amazing career opportunity, but couldn't manage to make any significant improvements to prolong the life of his company. then when it collapses, he cashes in on the severance pay, while millions of Americans are suffering financially. what the fuck? surely, we can hardly say it was his fault that WaMu failed, but the bastard still got paid that much money? undeserved.
