keep a steady amount of blood flowing to a certain part of my body.  the blood never came.  instead, i simply lost my mind.  the only time i had felt like this before was when i had taken paxil recreationally (try it, it makes you feel so weird for three days straight; incessant yawning, difficulty discerning right from left and a severe moral dearth.  we called it craxil).  so anyways, i sat there feeling kind of warm and very afraid for several hours.  i also laughed a lot, uncontrollably actually.  needless to say, the reckless sex romp that one typically would expect from such an endeavour never came to pass.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-gar&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;p.s. play this informative &lt;a href="http://www.aclu.tv/flash/justicematch.html"&gt;game&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br

better and looked a lot cooler with his shirt off.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;mountain dew and starbursts for breakfast...  mmm...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;editing movies is fun.  especially when the product of hours and hours of your time is a shitty piece of crap that no one (including yourself) likes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i was looking at a website this morning, where young ladies send in naked pictures of themselves and in exchange are paid a nominal fee but also achieve the status of being known as something as illustrious as a suicidegirl.  the young maiden off to whom i jerked had tattooed little hearts over her nips.  and i asked myself, why must we gild a lily here, folks?  and thusly, by referring to myself as "folks" i had diagnosed myself as a schizophrenic and after every one of the people in my head achieved a climax, we went to work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;last night i went to bed before midnight and subsequently dreamt up a social life.  when i awoke i felt the same embarassment i typically feel when awaking after a real party.  isn't that funny?  i'm truly a madperson.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-gar&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;p.s. two months of solid hanging out.

certain circumstances that mimic the conditions in a constructed reactor. The only known natural nuclear reactor formed 2 billion years ago in Oklo, Gabon, Africa...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The natural nuclear reactors formed when a uranium-rich mineral deposit became inundated with groundwater that acted as a neutron moderator, and a strong chain reaction took place. The water moderator would boil away as the reaction increased, slowing it back down again and preventing a meltdown. The fission reaction was sustained for hundreds of thousands of years."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;from &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oklo"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Wiki&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt; (of course).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;and&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;The radioactive Boy Scout&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"In 1995, a 17-year-old Boy Scout named David Hahn attempted to build a small nuclear reactor in a potting shed in his back yard. This reactor was far too small to be critical, but it included a neutron source and moderator. He collected sufficient quantities of radioactive materials that the US EPA had to be called in to saw up and dispose of the entire potting shed in a radioactive waste dump. David's parents had already secretly disposed of some of the most dangerous material by throwing it in the garbage. The reactor was built with radium (from old paint) and americium (from smoke detectors) as sources of alpha particles, which struck aluminum and beryllium to produce fast neutrons. The resulting neutrons were used to irradiate thorium (from gas mantles) and uranium (obtained as samples from a Czech company). The required information to obtain the elements and design the reactor were obtained by the simple expedient of writing letters to various organizations, claiming to be working on a merit badge or as "Professor Hahn" teaching a high-school physics class."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;also from &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Hahn"&gt;&lt;span

wife).  &lt;a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0857620/"&gt;justin theroux&lt;/a&gt; is an amazing actor.  and i think that michael ian black really likes to be eating when making the jokes.  i'm glad i don't have to write movie reviews for a living because it's hard and stupid and subjective and half of a movie experience is the mood in which one finds oneself whilst taking in (visually) a cinematic experience (a movie).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;p.p.s. so nariman tells me he got a weird phone call from a blocked i.d. the other night too.  isn't that fucking weird?  it was like a weird

his paycheck over to me.  i was going to deposit 60 of it and give the rest to him, but when i handed it to the teller he told me no dice!  the fucking patriot act says no dice to third party checks!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then seth, as a joke, screamed "terrorist" at me outside, but i couldn't help but worry that the lovely hot-dog vendor guy (who is of middle eastern origin and was within earshot) might have thought it was directed at him.  if seth had just followed my "Paranoid Code of Conduct for the Speaking Out of Doors:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) never mention anyone by name.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) never speak loudly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) if you have to speak loudly, stick to words that couldn't possibly offend or involve anyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then he wouldn't have hurt anyone's feelings (potentially).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;fuck.  i am so mad.  i can't fucking believe how quickly this country went down the shitter.  fuck.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br

(s)&lt;br /&gt;cologne (g)&lt;br /&gt;guitar (m)&lt;br /&gt;briefcase (g)&lt;br /&gt;midi keyboard (g)&lt;br /&gt;wireless router (g)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;(m) = micah's, (s) = seth's, (g) = gar's&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;at first, i thought i got off light, but now i realize that i am out over $200 worth of gear. bunch of savages in this town.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;p.p.p.p.p.s. the lifeless girls who roam aimlessly between 806 and 804 park now have seriously fucked open wounds on their faces confirming my suspicion they are all on crack and/or crystal meth. and when i went into my old apartment to get some shit there was smoke wafting through the place. creepy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;p.p.p.p.p.p.s. i need some food.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;p.p.p.p.p.p.p.s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;today's "&lt;strong&gt;Teach The Nietzsch&lt;/strong&gt;" is brought to you by Zep Caldron:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Flee, my friend, into your solitude: I see you stung all over by the poisonous flies. Flee to where a rough, strong breeze blows!&lt;br /&gt;Flee into your solitude! you have lived too closely to the small and the pitiful. Flee from their invisible vengeance! For you they have nothing but vengeance.&lt;br /&gt;No longer raise your arm against them! They are innumerable, and it is not your task to shoo flies.&lt;br /&gt;Innumerable are the small and pitiful ones; and rain-drops and weeds have been the ruin of many a proud structure.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You are not stone; but already have you become hollow from many drops. You will yet break and burst from the many drops.&lt;br /&gt;I see you exhausted by poisonous flies; I see you bleeding and torn at a hundred spots; and your pride refuses even to be angry.&lt;br /&gt;They would have blood from you in all innocence; blood is what bloodless souls crave- and therefore they sting in all innocence.&lt;br /&gt;But you, profound one, you suffer too profoundly even from small wounds; and before you have healed, the same poison-worm crawls over your hand.&lt;br /&gt;You are too proud to kill these gluttons. But take care lest it be your fate to suffer all their poisonous injustice!&lt;br /&gt;They buzz around you also with their praise: obtrusiveness is their praise. They want to be close to your skin and your blood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;They flatter you, as one flatters a God or devil; they whimper before you, as before a God or devil; What does it come to! They are flatterers and whimperers, and nothing more.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Often, also, do they show themselves to you as friendly ones. But that has always been the prudence of cowards. Yes! cowards are wise!&lt;br /&gt;They think much about you with their petty souls- you are always suspect to them! Whatever is much thought about is at last thought suspicious.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;They punish you for all your virtues. They pardon you entirely- for your errors.&lt;br /&gt;Because you are gentle and of honest character, you say: "Guiltless are they for their small existence." But their petty souls think: "Guilty is every great existence."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Even when you are gentle towards them, they still feel themselves despised by you; and they repay your beneficence with secret maleficence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your silent pride is always counter to their taste; they rejoice if once you are humble enough to be vain.&lt;br /&gt;What we recognize in a man, we also irritate in him. Therefore be on your guard against the small ones!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In your presence they feel themselves small, and their baseness gleams and glows against you in invisible vengeance.&lt;br /&gt;You did not see how often they became silent when you approached them, and how their energy left them like the smoke of an waning fire?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Yes, my friend, you are the bad conscience of your neighbors, for they are unworthy of you. Therefore they hate you, and would rather suck your blood.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your neighbors will always be poisonous flies; what is great in you- that itself must make them more poisonous, and always more fly-like.&lt;br /&gt;Flee, my friend, into your solitude- and there, where a rough strong breeze blows.
