for anybody thats reading this and has wondered if i was still alive and causeing trouble, well i am and i'm in some shit. this is me venting and nothing else. you don't want to hear me bitch, don't go any further.
ok, the first thing to know is that by me moving to the coast, i am automatically put on the area's most wanted list. not saying that to be funny, its true. there are 3 kinds of people down here: white folks, mexicans and tourists. and since i'm not white, it has been brought to my attention( many times ) that it makes me mexican. and what happens when a bunch of mexicans get together? not a damn thing, but everybody else has a different idea. what i'm getting at is that if anything goes wrong in my neighborhood, and it has, police come to question me. its happened seven fucking times now and they still don't see that i don't mess with anybody down here. i don't know people to do shit down here. but whatever, it keeps thing from getting boring.
now onto work. if you did't know i work for the biggest Publix in town. bigger than anyone in the area and we get more custormers than any other store in the area. this means alot of people. and alot of people means alot of carts. my right hand got caught in between two carts and, for the lack of a better word, got crushed. not broken but crushed. i can't use my hand for a couple weeks and this makes my job a little difficult. but it gets better, sort of.
for some reason alot of foreign students spend the summer down here and eventually get a job at, say it with me kids, Publix. its all cool, they're fun to talk with and i've learned to cuss in another three languages( go ME! ) and it makes work more interesting. just the thing is that there is one chick who baggs with me turns out she has a bit of a thing for me. normally this isn't a problem, i say i'm married and thats the end of it. not this time. not this chick. she has gone as far as to find out where i live a pay me a visit on my day off. not the, "hey, i was in the neighborhood and decided to dropby" kind of visit. it was the, " i know your wifes not home so you want to mess around while she's out?" kind of visit. needless to say this is kind of offsetting, to say the least. and to make it worst, atleast for me, she's fucking HOT. i'm talking about every chick you see in the those movies where the american kid goes to germany or some place like that and see this incredibly hot woman that for some reason like him and takes him back to her place for a little "alone time". ( god that was retarded ) anyway, its like that but with no sex. at all. i'm faithful and i will not do that. oh, and here is the best part. she met the Mrs. and has brought it to my attention that she "hates her with all her beinng and would like nothing more than to see her leave me for a better woman." her words not mine.
so thats my shit thats been happening. so what "bout you?

WASHINGTON, DC—In the latest in a long series of ominous public pronouncements, the Department of Evil released a statement Monday demanding that all residents of the United States must die.
Enlarge Image
Dread Secretary of Evil Hammond S. Reynolds told reporters that they, too, must die.
"Yes, all must die," Dread Secretary of Evil Hammond S. Reynolds said during a press conference in Room 1228 of Washington's Robert C. Weaver Federal Building. "There shall soon come an accounting in which all will fall before the Grim Reaper as wheat in winter, as lambs under the knife. Soon all necks will feel the steely bite of our soul- thirsting axe, wielded by the unforgiving iron hand of the Department of Evil. Thus spake I, Dread Secretary Reynolds."
The dread secretary then took questions from the assembled reporters.
Although the Department of Evil has not yet announced the exact timetable for the death of all, it recommends citizens make their peace with doomed relatives and spouses immediately, as the hour of their ending draws ever nigh and will be upon them as soon as the necessary funding has been authorized by the House Appropriations Committee.
"This budget approval is merely a pitiful, niggling formality, for soon we'll be free to swarm across the land draining the life-pus out of all you quivering mortal worms," Reynolds said. "Doubt us not: Come the wintertide, you all shall die, and die you will. Sorry, I meant 'must.' Die you must!"
Originally established by an act of Congress in 1953 and granted broader powers and funding in 1986 under the second Reagan administration, the Department of Evil has been an occasional source of controversy. Its 1993 And The Streets Shall Run Red With The Blood Of The Innocent initiative was highly criticized at the time by moderates, who thought the department's agenda overly harsh.

An official from the Department of Evil described their 2007 strategic action plan at a conference in January.
In 2004, an ambitious plan to seed the clouds with blood and then rain excruciation down upon the thrice-damned didn't even make it past a Senate budget committee, which criticized the plan as poorly conceived.
And last year, the department received a stinging blow after Congress voted to allocate only one-third of the money requested to swell the ranks of its deranged, barbarous demon cavalry.
Despite those recent setbacks, a DOE spokesbeast said that the dread secretary remains confident that his department will prevail in the end.
To publicize their current mission, the Department of Evil distributed to media outlets a ring-bound portfolio titled "You Shall All Perish Screaming 2007," which provides estimates and logistics detailing how everyone will die, a line-by-line budget breakdown, and an addendum apologizing that the document was not printed in human blood. The full text is available at evil.gov.
The "All Must Die" initiative, the highest-profile program proposed by the DOE in recent memory, came under almost immediate scrutiny from politicians on both sides of the aisle.
"I don't understand why we still even have a Department of Evil," Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) said. "It's a Cold War holdover, an artifact of the '50s that has outlived its usefulness. Mr. Reynolds has done as good a job as any recent dread secretary, but as afraid as I am of him, I believe his talents would be better served at Education or Agriculture."
"Once again, Mr. Reynolds wants to throw money at the everyone-dies issue—in this case, $11.43 billion," Sen. Arlen Specter (R-PA) said. "This is a waste of taxpayer dollars to do work best left to the private sector. It's high time for the DOE to be absorbed into Homeland Security, where it belongs."
At the press conference, Reynolds refused to disclose his reasons for proposing that all must die.
"Question not the dread secretary, insects!" said Reynolds, rearing back his mighty head and bellowing as a powerful crescendo emanated from the department's enormous Gothic pipe organ. "First, the bandwagoners in Congress seek to derail our plans or committee them to death. Now, the mindless blood-bags who populate this teeming nation wish to know why they must perish. I will respond with the same answer we have always given: Despair, groveling vermin, and may your deaf, blind God forsake the United States of America! We're done here."

However there are certain frogs that can survive the experience of being frozen.

Current mood:  excited
'Blood: The Last Vampire' rises again as a live-action film You can't keep a good vampire down, especially if she's supported by a hit movie, manga, games, TV series and now a live-action movie. Vampire hunter Saya first thrilled audiences in 2000, and now it turns out that the she's got at least one more adventure left, in a whole new medium: Production I.G recently announced that the animated Blood: The Last Vampire will be made into a live-action movie by independent film studio French Pathe.
The plot revolves around the mysterious Saya, who appears to be a normal schoolgirl but wields a sword against demons and never seems to age. A bloody thriller, the original movie ends with many questions still in the audience's mind. Who was Saya, and what was her story? The film's popularity and viewers' questions prompted the currently running TV series Blood+, but now Saya's headed back to the silver screen.
Filming is scheduled to start in January 2007, with Ronny Yu (Freddie vs. Jason) heading up the project as director. Bill Kong, best known for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and House of Flying Daggers, will produce. Less well known in the West is lead actress Jun Ji-hyun, who will play Saya. Ji-hyun is a celebrity in her native South Korea, especially for her role in the highly successful film My Sassy Girl.
Of the numerous vampire anime in existence, Blood: The Last Vampire is among the most successful. Released in 2000, the 48-minute film won the award for best animation in the 4th annual Japan Media Arts Festival and became a cult classic. Its quality so impressed Titanic director James Cameron that he remarked, "The world will come to consider this work as the standard of top quality in digital animation."
The original Blood: The Last Vampire movie takes place just before the Vietnam War on an American air force base in Japan. Dark, moody and with plenty of blood, it follows the path of the deadly Saya as she hunts vampiric monsters referred to as Chiropterans.
Little is known about what will happen in the live-action rendition, but the reputations of Yu and Kong mean fans can expect as much intense action as creepy mystery. Unlike the first Blood installments, this version is said to take place in 1940s Japan, when the country was still recovering from World War II. And in an unusual step, Production I.G agreed to accept a percentage of the film's revenues rather than sell the rights for a one-time fee. Whether that move is a mistake or genius will be decided when Blood is released in spring 2008.
