"...due to my being currently unemployment."

There is a crisis in health freedom. You can make a difference.

On April 30, 2007 the FDA will close
the public comment period on a "Guidance" which will classify every
alternative practice as medicine so that only licensed physicians can
carry out the procedure AND vitamins, minerals, herbs, etc., will suddenly
become "untested drugs" which will be forbidden."

At a certain point, it becomes mentally taxing to force yourself to wake up and do your job every day, and that's basically a saturation point I hit a good year ago, at least.  I read email from people, and respond to it, and in kind respond to their responses, which are - amazingly - dumber than their original messages, and I worry a lot that some Nietzchean process is going on regarding abysses and staring - that I'm basically becoming stupid by doing this 40 hours a week.

I know the story itself is old news by now, but nothing amuses me more than watching newscasters say the word 'Mooninite'.  Watch any news broadcast that's still talking about it and see for yourself - it's hillarious.

Recievening.

I just got an email that uses the word Re-In-state, spelled and capitalized thusly.  I'm a big fan of the power of the human imagination, and naturally, I'm a little En-Armourr-ed with this word.  Face it, folks: if we have to be bothered to get our spell on, and our write on, we might as well have a little bit of fun with it.  Written communication is obsolete and just not even classy anymore.  It needs to be jazzed up.  What the auteur of this email has done is to essentially pull a white, cotton, button-down shirt out of my closet and go ten varieties of mad on it with a Bedazzler.  Now I have style.

I assume that Re-In-state means to return to your home state after being in an adjacent state due to travel.

I'm actually inspired to coin a few words of my own now.

Vocabulous.  Have you ever heard someone use a big word and you're just wowed by them?  Like, want-to-sire-their-spawn amazed?  That person is vocabulous.  See how I did that?  

Another one: Fornicopious.  You can use this word to describe that slutty friend that you have.  You know.  The slutty friend.  The one you keep around so that you can hear him/her tell some borderline abominable biographical anecdote and reply with, "Wow.  I'm no angel, but...wow.  Do you want some holy water?  I'm going to back up two feet."

Use these words today.  Make them yours.

So...Uwe Boll wants to make a Metal Gear movie?  Great.  It's always nice to see Hollywood piss all over a respectable franchise from another medium, and let's face it, Uwe Boll is the avatar of Hollywood.

I predict the movie goes something like this:

The film, Metal Gear, is about a 17th century whaling captain named Snake Otacon, who works for the Raiden corporation. Along with his girlfriend, Liquid, and his welsh corgi, Meryl, Snake takes to the seven seas to stop the evil Revolving Ocelot and his cadre of evil, FOXTROT. Metal Gear is the name of a whale that killed Snake's robot ninja time traveler father THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO.  The whale's brother, Ray, is actually a gorgeous woman/love interest and is also Snake Otacon's mother.

I'm really psyched for this film, and I really want to see what Boll will do with Centipede.
