I'm Brilliant. Absolutely Brilliant.

If the Great Blog War ever resumes and breaks the unspoken truce, heres who the Axis should start. The insperation was provided by BNL's song Another Postcard (you can listen to the song). But back to the point, heres the lyrics to the song, and if you follow my mind set, you'll know what the next attack by the axis should be...

You can't imagine so many monkeys in the daily mail
All of them coming anonymously so they leave no trail
I never thought I'd have an admirer from overseas
But someone is sending me stationary filled with chimpanzees.

Some chimps in swimsuits, some chimps are swinging from a vine
Some chimps in jackboots, some chimps that wish they could be mine.
Starsky and Hutch chimps, a chimp who's sitting on the can
A pair of Dutch chimps who send their love from Amsterdam.

[CHORUS (x2):]
Another postcard with chimpanzees
And every one is addressed to me.

If I had to guess, I'd say the monkey-sender thinks it's great
He's sending me, maybe she's sending me just to see me get irate
I'm losing sleep - and it's gonna be keeping me up all night
I thought it was funny, but now I've got money on a monkey fight.

Some chimps in hard hats, chimps a-working on a chain gang
Some chimps who love cats, burning rubber in a Mustang
A birthday-wishing chimp, a chimp in black like a goth
A goin' fishin' chimp, a British chimp in the bath.

[CHORUS (x2)]

Somehow they followed me even though I packed and moved my home
No matter what, they come and they come they won't leave me alone
Another monkey in the mail could make me lose my mind
But look at me shuffling through the stack until I finally find

Some chimps in swimsuits
Some chimps in Jackboots
Some chimps in hard hats
Some chimps who love cats
I've got some shaved chimps; that's chimps devoid of any hair
I've got depraved chimps dressed up in women's underwear.

Another postcard with chimpanzees
And every one is addressed to me.
Every one is, every one is, every one is addressed to me.
Every one is, every one is, every one is addressed to me.

[CHORUS (x4)]

Some chimps in swimsuits, Some chimps in Jackboots
Some chimps in hard hats, Some chimps who love cats
I've got some shaved chimps; that's chimps devoid of any hair
I've got depraved chimps dressed up in women's underwear.
Starsky and Hutch chimps, a chimp who's sitting on the can
A pair of Dutch chimps who send their love from Amsterdam.
Some chimps in Mustangs, Some chimps in chain gangs
I got a birthday wishin' chimp and I got the goin' fishin' chimp

AHHH!!!

What ever sexist-chauvanistic male decided that it was a good idea for females to shave should have been shot on the spot. OWW!!

Nightmares...

Me and my mom have had weird dreams lately. Scary enough, hers actually preceded and actual event, even though it was a bit off. I'll spare you the details. But I’ll tell you about mine. I think its rather horrendous. I woke up in a 'cold sweat'...

Here’s the short and dirty version. I went to college, and got a double major in Physics and Technical Theater with a minor in Education. I then returned to my childhood home where mom and dad were still living, and bought the house (that alone should have screamed nightmare). I then proceeded to get a job teaching at my high school (The horror! The horror!).

That’s when I woke up. I hope i never have that dream again. *Shudders*

*Happy Squeal* EE!!

I got the brand new special edition BareNaked Ladies CD, Everything to Everyone. *another happy squeal* Bet your jealous.

Butterflies...

In English class we are reading the book Night by Elie Wiesel. And we had an assignment where we had to create butterflies that symbolize ourselves. The butterflies were hung on the ceiling around the classroom about 2 weeks ago and pretty much forgotten about for the time being, until today. Ms. Fraze (my teacher) explained the true purpose of the butterflies, there was a death camp called Terezin where a lot of kids were sent, over 15,000 to be precise. Of the 15,000 only 100 survived. And there is a book that has pictures and poems wrote/drawn by some kids there, called I Never Saw Another Butterfly, in the back of the book is info on some of the kids, like their birthday, the day they were deported, their death day, etc. Ms. Fraze photocopied this and cut it up so that the stories were on little slips of paper and put them into an envelope. What would happen was she would pull a Student ID Number out of another envelope, and who ever had that number had to pull a 'fate' out of the envelope and read the poem written by the person, out loud. If the person died, your butterfly was cut down. If your person lived, your butterfly stayed up until the next time your number was drawn. It was a way to symbolize Selection. I found it a bit nerve-wracking.

So when we first started this, and I found out I actually need to know my Student ID number, I mumbled under my breath to try and remember it. I didn't remember it until the teacher drew the first number, and it turned out to be mine. So I drew a slip of paper, and read page 22 to 24 of I Never Saw Another Butterfly. Here’s the persons bio:

Helga Weissova was born in Prague on November 10, 1929. She was deported to Terezin with her parents on December 17, 1941. She was sent to Auschwitz with her mother on October 4, 1944, and, later, to the work camps of Freiberg and Mauthausen. She survived and returned to Praque, where she studied painting with the Czech artist Emil Filla. Helga Weissova-Hoskova lives and is an artist in Praque.

I can't find a copy of the Poem, but I did find some sources on line that had drawings created by Helga Weissova.

My butterfly still hangs above my desk.

Revenge is so sweet...

Remember that tard? You know the freshie?

He called me fat!

Lol. It mostly poor diction (ooo... Big word! Big word!) on his part but I'm not letting it go any time soon. Hehe. Lets just say he's going to be cleaning paint brushes and Gelling the lights for a long time.

Question:
