RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS - TRANSCENDING (written for River Phoenix)
..
Flea wrote this song for his good friend, River...they're jamming in the beginning. They met on the set of My Own Private Idaho
*warning* 20 seconds of the actual call Joaquin, River's brother, made to the 911 dispatcher is in this video...
He is truly missed... Dogfight and The Thing Called Love are two of my all-time favorite films.

TD Ameritrade Bellevue, NE US Mutual Funds Analyst Jim said it best: "Right now, this is a job. If I advance any higher, this would be my career. And if this were my career, ... I'd have to throw myself in front of a train."
am a deep-thinking daydreaming philosophizing vintage t-shirt-wearing photography-film-music (indie / 90’s rock) obsessed vegetarian, make no pretenses about who i am what i want or where i want to go in life, find both animal cruelty and violence [in general] abominable slam poetry reading and writing zealously appealing and care not for superficiality, speak my mind have a brain and find that nature is indescribably beautiful when not tortured by the ignorant close-minded and world-weary.

Satan / you know where I lie
Gently I go into that good night
All our lives get complicated
Search for pleasures overrated
Never armed our souls
What the future would hold
When we were innocent
Angels / lend me your might
Forfeit all my lives to get just one right
All those colors long since faded
All our smiles are confiscated
Never were we told
We'd be bought and sold
When we were innocent
This prayer is for me tonight
This far down that line and still ain't got it right
And while confessions not yet stated
Our next sin is contemplated
Never did we know
What the future would hold
Or that we'd be bought and sold
When we were innocent / innocent
When we were innocent
-- FUEL, Innocent
Who I'd like to meet:
Open-minded, thoughtful, daydream-esque people. Those with half-a-brain, quick wit, dry humor, and can talk about anything and everything.
A witty man with old-school charm, a sense of humor, great eyes and smile wouldn't hurt. "THE OFFICE" CAST. Mike Ness. Michael Balzary ('Flea')! Carol Burnett. Cass Elliott. Eirik Ott "Big Poppa E". (Austin, TX, slam poet),... River Phoenix. James Dean.
And, all of "THE GREATS": Ralph Waldo Emerson. Henry David Thoreau. Jane Austen. Ernest Hemingway. William Shakespeare. Umberto Boccioni. Pablo Picasso. Leonardo Divinci. Ansel Adams. Thomas Barbèy.
Yep, sometimes I put a gatorade bottle of tea in the fridge to cool for the next day. Unfortunatly, however I try to remove the tea bags I get splashed.
The little emotion smily face for nostalgic is misleading. I understood nostalgia to be fond memories.
I'm glad, I worked very hard on this disguise. It can't last forever though. Someday everyone will reconize me for a hairy, seven foot, creature that smells like wet dog.
Along with your tape lines you should put up trip wires. Just remember where you put them and try to avoid tripping your boss...better yet, trip your boss and make it look like someone else did it.
"Nothing says 'Stay out of my bubble!' like a can of mace. "
A persons personal bubble. By my standard, a personal bubble's radious is the same as the length of that persons arm. I'm betting my arms are longer then yours so I have a bigger bubble...I've got nothing better to argue about...sigh...
Your comment on romance: rough. Could cupid not maintain the payments? I understand the economy is on the shits but I didn't know it was this bad.
I was like that kid "Mommy, why are they fighting." It took me a bit to realize what they were really up too. Based on what you say about having two penises, peni...whatever, I can understand why they looked like they were fighting.
These are the useless facts that are fun to know. Oddly they are the same facts that earn odd looks.
If the Hokey Pokey is what "it's" all about I'd say the world is really on the wrong track.
On a more course intepretation of the phrase "Hokey Pokey" I saw snakes mateing today. It was actually kind of sweet. If that is what "it" is all about those snakes are right on the money.
As Mr. Myagi and Yoda rolled into one you will kick lots of ass. Unfortunatly people can't understand you as neither Myagi nor Yoda have a grasp of the english language.
Here's to the people that need to let you know all about them. Here's to the people that need to let you know how grateful you should be for them. Here's to the people, that small brand of people, that step into your heart quietly and their guestures that let you know they care without making sure you need to know how grateful you are for them. I'm grateful for you and you're quietness.
I got an X-ray today and they found you in my heart. The Dr. said if I took you out, I would die cuz I could not live without you.... Give this heart ♥ to every person u care about including me if u care. Try to collect 12. It's not easy.
I can't say Kentucky was a big leap from Iowa, but I do like it down here now. Although, I do miss people from back home. Maybe you should run away and visit me! =)
