smoking and the world
yes, it's happened again. this morning i was told off for smoking by a complete stranger. this really grinds my gears. here's my little theory behind the witch-hunt on smokers - we always need a scape goat. because, let's face it, if it wasn't cigarettes society would get their knickers in a collective bunch over it would be, oh i don't know, things that matter? things that effect the entire planet? such as the use of fossilized fuel? countries still testing nuclear weapons? the energy debate? international politics? i don't know, i'll just let bill hicks do the talking for now since i'm sick to death of all the anti-smoking propaganda:
"i smoke, if this bothers anyone i recommend you look around in the world we live and shutting your fucking mouth. [...] non-smokers, are you ready? this is by the way a fact too. non-smokers, ready? drum roll. non-smokers die every day! hahahahahaha, sleep tight. oh, the truth shall set you free. i know you non-smokers entertain some type of eternal life fantasy because you don't smoke cigarettes. well, let me be the first to pop that bubble and send you on your way with a little truth: you're going to fucking die." - bill hicks, flying saucer tour 1991.

Wedding Welcome Note For Invitation
it's time
it's time to apply for my doctorate position with the university. damn i'm nervous. and the worst part is that i have to wait a month before i get word if i've gotten the job. also, there are only three positions opening up this year. if i can't get in now i guess...i guess i'll have to take some menial job and work for a year or so. but i don't want to. i am a student, have always been a student and plan to be a student for the rest of my life. yes, yes, i know i'll have to teach as well as a part of the program, but still, it will sure as hell beat the rat race. i've been there and there's something with "traditional" work that just doesn't sit right with me. i get restless and unhappy. oh well, should get going to school now.

Milena Velba And Black Woman
black widow
if i needed more proof of the global warming i got it yesterday. apparently, the black widow, previously indigenous to mainly southeastern usa, has made a new home here in sweden. yes, in sweden, the land of the freezing your ass off winters. it's no news that we've gotten all kinds of nasty critters with the import of exotic fruits and vegetables, but what is news is that now our climate is warm enough for these nasty buggers to establish colonies here as well. time to make that move to svalbard methinks.
