Time changes all
People change with time man. Yet I think I have a solution for the jimmy issue. I think it is time for a little reunion. Lets get the hole gang to gather some way some how. Think of a way and post.
Near Eight.
Eight years.
Okay, that's premature. Not quite eight years yet. But we are slowly creeping upon that mark. And I do mean creeping. I was looking at the board statistics, being bored and yearning for a simpler time when I didn't worry about bills, melting glaciers, and super-viruses, and I noticed the trend in postings, and number of postings.
And I also have been re-reading some of our thoughts, many juvenile, some almost prophetic. (Okay, there really weren't many of those... I'm not even sure there was one of those.)
I really doubt this board will survive past this year because in the last three years it's pretty much been me reminiscing about how we don't post on the board. And then there is Heather who posts something arguably inane or downright scary. Then Bradbury who posts something that amounts to a solid, "Yeeeup."
Gone are the days of Jimmy and James screaming "buuuutttsexxxxx" to each other. (My bad, that was Jimmy and Zach.) Gone are the photoshop-wars that were launched from cities apart. Gone are the days of Chrissie and Bonnie half-bitchingly whining at each other about God only knows what. Gone are the blogged-about BBQ's and MEGAposts that almost never come to fruition. Gone are the lists and rap-battles. Gone are the days when Michael would get online, rant about something involving cows, and scare the living shit out of me.
I have occasionally come to a point where I think, "Man I miss the board the way it was..." and think of efforts to resurrect the finer, best points of it. Maybe even introduce a few new things, like podcasts (maybe of movie reviews), another shot at a MEGApost, a comic book series involving some of the slugs as characters, etc...
But then I think of all the wasted effort as no one reads the board anymore. Few probably know it still exists in some fashion, and I'm sure many of the original authors have hit puberty and are now into girls (or guys, I'm not judging). James has lost his creative-motivation or something, because he can't muster then mental-libido to fire anything back these days. I think he was right when he posted years ago that when he got a job, he would become corrupted:
Jimmy is in a relationship, and having been in one, and being in one know, I know what type of time-resource-consumer that can be. Last I heard, he doesn't have a computer again.
Joe, as in MEGAjOe or just jOe, well... he's still around in some fashion or another, but I doubt he uses his computer for anything other than looking up Pokemon-related porn. (Hentai, sorry, gotta get my nouns correct.)
Bradbury... he too will always be around in the same way that fog is around... ethereally, with his trademark "Yeeeup"-type comments. I don't fault him for that, half the time my life is a yeeeup-type situation (with regards to career).
Are Mr. R and "Slim Jayee" (I still don't know who the hell this is) still alive?
There are more names, many more than I can recall on my ever-shortening lunch break... and maybe I'll get the inclination to write more about times-since-past. But then again, I don't want to be that loser that attends his HS reunion every time because he can't let go of the past and move forward.
Perhaps that's what I'm doing now... trying in vain to grasp as a past, instead of what I think I'm doing, which is trying to preserve a potentially meaningful outlet into my darker, laid-back side before it succumbs to the titanic pressures of adulthood, responsibility, children, and death.

And when I get a job, I'll be corrupt and wallow in the filthy pollution known as MONEY. God I hate the concept of money.

Return of the King and Top Lists
So as I had said earlier, I had not known that James updated Blogger such that I could post to it again until recently... and I had been meaning to post since that recently announcement, but I've been kept busy by work and by a dog. But now I have some time while my computer busies itself with archiving stuff to blank DVDs (by the way, you all need to watch Arrested Development if you haven't, because it owns you).
Anyway though, enough of that stuff. I was reading the paper the other day and came across an article about people and making lists and how it's become this huge thing lately, which I thought was odd because I know we here have been doing it forever... well, forever ago... since nobody fuckin' posts to the board anymore (present recent posters excluded).
But anyway, as I was saying, it used to be that we would make Top 5 Posts all the time. SO, in the spirit of that old tradition...
A NEW TOP FIVE POST FROM ME!?!?!?!!!!
Starting from least favorite to most favorite, we have:
I know that this one might come off as a bit goth-trendy or whatever, but since I'm not goth or emo, I really don't have to worry about that. First seeing this on James' computer, and dismissing it slightly at the time, I later again caught it while working at Hollywood Video, and for whatever reason this time it stuck. Probably because when you work at a video store, you are introduced to ALL of the crap out there and begin to appreciate good random stuff.
I would have to call this cartoon as one of the first of the modern or contemporary cartoons of our time. It certain was one of the best adaptations of a comic book character for TV, and one of the first. And it was fuckin' Batman! And Batman was actually bad-ass, not campy like previous cartoon versions. And then, he went on to be the bad-ass member of the Justice League cartoons, with the same voice actor. The lesson: Batman is supposed to be bad-ass!
The other great comic book to cartoon adaptation, and perhaps better (at least in my opinion) was this cartoon. If Batman had Batman, then X-Men had Wolverine. I think my only problem with this cartoon was that Iceman was only in it a few times. But they made up for that with good stories, including the Phoenix saga and all the Apocalypse stuff. Hell, they even had Cable and Bishop show up from time to time.
I was actually not going to include this cartoon on the list, because I see it more as a series or sitcom then I do as a cartoon. Still, it is animated, and so it's here. It's the Simpsons. What can you say? I think it cemented it's place as an all time favorite every time it had some parody of something that wasn't mass pop-culture but that I still got. For some reason, the scene of Lisa running that parallels "Run Lola Run" sticks in my mind the best. Yeah, it can be argued that the show has lost it's way from time to time and may be suffering from having been on the air for too long, but it's still better than a good majority of anything out there.
With all the new hype coming out for the Transformers live movie, I began to wonder if my beloved memories of the original were just hype and nostalgia, so I went to Scarecrow and rented the series. I can honestly say that it isn't hype, though maybe some nostalgia to be sure. The Transformers were awesome. Yes, there were some cliché things about the show, but hell, there will be some cliché things about any show of any time period, and I'm willing to dismiss those. The classic battles between Optimus Prime and Megatron will always be that: classic. And awesome. Yeah, it was absurd some times and sometimes hearing Megatron yell "RETREAT!" every episode starts to feel redundant, but that also made it comfortable and welcome. And you couldn't beat Starscream's constant efforts at trying to claim power. Why Megatron kept him around all that time, who knows? Of course, this all makes me that much sadder that the new movie will probably suck, and not due to the natural modernization of classics... but because Michael Bay is a bastard who seems to have a knack for ruining what he touches with too much over-the-topness. But hey, maybe that will help with this movie. At least it isn't being directed by Paul Anderson.
And they say there isn't a God.

My Top 5 Favorite Cartoons/Animated Series' of All Time
Starting from least favorite to most favorite, we have:
5. Invader Zim

Going away party
Ok, so my going away party (little last min notice on my part, sorry guys) is going to be in Spanaway at my friend Stephanie's house, today (the 9th) at 3:30pm. I know a few of you will be going, and directions can be found on my myspace blog at www.myspace.com/sovietsaint
Also, just an FYI, since I probably won't have much time on a computer for the next two years, I created a new blog to keep everyone updated. http://raechellewatkins.blogspot.com I will update/post as often as I can (probably about once a month or so). Since the region I'm going to won't have computers anywhere but internet cafe's, I will have limited access. If you want me to add you to my email list, send me an email to: Raechelle.Watkins@gmail.com
If you don't write, that's fine too. See you all in two years.

Post Frenzy
First off... I fucking hate Arial. It's a shit font and should be done away with.
Secondly, I didn't realize James' had fixed the board so that it worked with new blogger... so now i can post again... and you all missed that. You know you did.
Third... well I don't have a third yet, but now that I know I have a creative place to vent... oh yay... it will be venting time!
Fourth... I hate Michael Bay. He is going to ruin Transformers, and I'm gonna eat his liver for it.

Na-na-na-na, hey-hey-hey, good-bye!
Well it's official. I leave June 24th for Philadelphia PA, where I will spend two days getting a briefing on safety and vaccinated for yellow fever and typhoid. After that I will be on a plane to spend the next two years in Azerbaijan. (For my geographically challenged friends, it is located north of Iran, south of Russia, with Armenia and Georgia--the country-- on the western border, while the Caspian Sea is on the Eastern border). I will be back in the USA on September 12, 2009.
I got the job I wanted though. I will be piloting a new program in Azerbaijan, as a Youth Development Facilitator. Basically, I will be teaching English, leadership, teamwork, and any marketable skills that these kids aren't getting in school. I will be living with a host family for the first three months in a small village doing my language and culture training. After that time, I will be officially sworn in as a Peace Corps Volunteer, and will then spend the next six months after that with a new host family at my work site. Each volunteer is placed in their own small community, and we are assigned to schools, libraries, or other organizations that work with youth. I will have housing, food, and other essentials covered by a living stipend.
I have a going away party on June 10th at 4pm. Not sure where yet, they haven't quite figured that out... I will let you know when I know.

New Phobia
So after a lovely 15 hours in the dentist office last week, I now have a healthy phobia of the dentist. I never used to mind going in, at least not as a child. But seeing as how I haven't been to the dentist in...oh, 10 years or so? I guess you could say I had it coming. The results are in: I had a total of 12 cavities, and a need for 4 extractions. On Monday, I spent an hour getting the exam and x-rays done. Tuesday, we completed two fillings before the dentist realized that "oh, this one is going to need a root canal." So we began the root canal that day. 3.5 hours later, I was ready to leave the office.
Wednesday was the "fun" day. I went in and had an appointment in the morning, spending 3.5 hours in the chair getting 4 cavities filled. I came back after their lunch break, and sat another 3.5 hours in the office, where we did 3 more fillings, and started the 2nd root canal that was also a suprize.
Thursday I cam back to spend 3.5 hours in the chair finishing up my two root canals... good news though kiddies! The nerve on my second root canal wasn't entirely dead! We began the proceedure with a live root. Yes, you really can feel it even when you are numb. I didn't know whether to vomit on him, or punch him in the face, so I settled for jumping a foot and a half out of the chair and shreiking like a banshee. We had to finish the deadening before they could close up on the root canal.
I have one last appointment scheduled for the 23rd of March now. That appointment will finish my last filling and pull all four of my wisdom teeth. I seriously hope I get more codine for this...

Wii-Madness
Okay... so for whatever reason, I cannot quite use this board like I used to. Mostly it has to do with not being able to upgrade this board to the new blogger just yet. Apparently that's because the board is soooo gigantic that it won't yet be ready to switch over to the new blogger.
Because you all care about that...
For the moment that sucks because it makes my normally easy posting method just a little bit more difficult.
Oh well... in the meantime, I'll just have to go a roundabout way, and hope that it works.
To that end, I present this:
Yes, that is Jimmy and James and they are playing my Wii. Look at them, all Wii'ed out. Jimmy really looks into it, doesn't he? And he's all sweaty, just like James likes him to be.
He loves his Asian's sweaty.

Oh, my!
Fun stuff. I never have anything fun to post, but now I do!!!
So I went to Safeway and convinced a cashier that there was a local bear problem. It was so much fun! The conversation went something like this.
Me: So, have you had much of a bear problem?
Him: What?
Me: Have you had any bears in the store?
Him: Not that I've heard. . why?
Me: The weather - all this rain has damaged the vegetation in the forests, and so bears are comingout of the woods to look for food. There have been some issues with them coming into grocery stores.
Him: No! I haven't heard that.
Me: (increduously) Don't you watch the news? It's been all over Komo 4.
Him: No, I haven't. . I don't think we'd have that problem here. . .
Me: Well, I just figured being so close to capital forrest and all. . .
So, reading it here is lame and not nearly so fun. . but I totally had this poor idiot believing that a bear might come into Safeway and get him by the end of it. So now, I'm telling everyone I know to talk about the bear problems if you happen to be in the Yelm HIghway Safeway in Lacey. Gotta keep the story alive if I really want this kid to freak out! Yeah.

My Civic Duty... yeah... something like that
So I'm now on my second day of jury duty... which isn't really jury duty, but more of just showing up and waiting for something to happen. Apparently as a citizen of Seattle you are required, if asked, to serve two full days of jury duty. Most often is seems like all you do is sit around and wait for them to call your name, and then wait some more. If you're lucky, you'll eventually end up in front of a judge waiting to most likely be dismissed. I haven't reached that point yet, but I did get to see the prosecution and the defense.
Interesting stuff, this jury duty and civil service. Yeah. It's not really bad though, and my job is paying for my time off. If I get selected, I might even serve until the end of November.
Sweet potato pie.
By the way, the picture is not of the court-house. It is, however, of City Hall. I considered taking a picture of the courthouse inside, but I don't know if they'd like that. And yesterday Seattle was going through what could only be described as the second coming of Noah... that bearded bas-- you know what, nevermind. I've already racked up enough anti-heaven points, and if God doesn't have a sense of human, I'm severely fucked.
But yeah, civic duty. Interesting stuff. I just wish I had had the chance to grab breakfast this morning because I'm fuckin' hungry now.
DAMNIT.

23 acres of good ol' Roy livin'
So I found this when I did a search in YouTube for "Roy Washington." I hadn't expected to find anything. I really hadn't. I really hadn't wanted to. So imagine my fright upon seeing that someone was actually putting Roy on the map, so to speak. You know James, you should consider buying some of this land, so you can continue with your so-called experiments. Which I haven't forgotten about. My operatives, mostly Mr. Wappler, have provided me with hard-drives full of information that I am currently pouring through. I am convinced that when I am done, I will have the truth behind your nefarious deeds.

So yeah... I enlisted.
I enlisted in the Peace Corps. Is it just me or does the word volunteer no longer mean what I thought.... it is actually going to cost me more to join the peace corps than it would to just stay working. I have more medical tests and dental stuff to do to actually be accepted as a volunteer than most people will go through joining the military. I didn't have to go through this much stuff when I enlisted in the air force... so wonder why they need more tests for volunteers? Seems like a way to weed out the crazys perhaps? So now I am looking at some extensive dental work, a whole lot of blood tests, a full physical, eye exam, and a fun appointment with my favorite doctor... my gyno. Luck me. (I know you really love that image dont you?) But the good news is that I now know my approximate leave date, and geographical region. I will be in eastern europe in august of 2007 (as long as I pass the medical reviews) and I will be gone for 27 months. Doing something with my PR degree. I'm hoping for the Ukraine or Romania....

Imposter?
Being bored, I was randomly typing in names on the Series-of-Tubes when I found this guy.
I found him after typing "Nick Bradbury".
That's right Bradbury... someone is impersonating you. I suggest Jack Bauering him. But that's just my solution.
Oh and James, I have not forgotten about you. I have my associate (Wappler and Co.) looking into this so-called device of yours. We'll see what is really going on. I highly doubt it's this miracle time machine you are trying to peddle.

Experiments in Standard Variable Space Manipulation and Time Distortion Fields
Jeff, Jeff, Jeff. As much as you’d like to think that I’m out here in Roy doing absolutely nothing productive with my time it would figure that you are absolutely wrong in such a conclusion. Absolutely. For example, I have just recently finished my first prototype with my hand-held trans-dimensional space-time (TDST) manipulator and have been doing some test studies on it.
And here you thought Roy was just full of cows and hicks – had you seen a little show by the name of Eureka on the Sci Fi channel, you’d know that’s exactly what everyone here wants you to think. Turns out, Roy is a hotbed of abstract scientific studies and there is a large lab deep underground the town where multitudes of experiments are held.
Once I found out about that, I quickly filled out forms to see if I could get this made. . .
And while it may not look like much, I assure you – there is a whole lot more going on in the inside. I’ve disguised it as nothing more than a portable keyboard connected to a dvd remote, but to the professionally trained eye, it is obviously not.
I've placed letters on the image to help me define what each piece is. (A) is the prompt selector, where you type in exactly what you want moved, and where/when you want it moved to. (B) is a highly volatile connectivity cord which I cannot fully disclose the material used to transfer data, but considering that we're dealing with metaphysical transmutations and space-time, you can certainly imagine that its potent stuff. (C) is the real meat of the prototype; it houses the space-folding drive, permutation calculator, and a few other gadgets and trinkets which I also cannot disclose at this time (Competitors you know)
I can, however, show you this quick-and easy test run I did at home on a glass table. On January 26, at approximately this hour in the morning, I took a photo of my glass table. I had made sure to completely clear off the table before taking the photo. Today, at roughly 10:44am, I cleared off that same table and placed a roll of toilet paper on it. Making sure to note that it was situated on the left side of the table. Then I fired up the TDST manipulator and put in the following information: 1. Roll of toilet paper on glass table. 2. Move// Approximately 1 foot to the right 3. Time// 9 months prior. Now at the time that I took the photo, remember that the table was cleared off.
Once I activated the TDST manipulator, here is that VERY SAME PHOTOGRAPH. Be sure to make note of the time stamp, that is very important. So you see, Mr. College Grad Fancy Dancy Jeff Paulino Smarty Pants Know it All ... I'm not just sitting on my ass doing nothing productive after all. Some of us are actually pioneering hardware in previously unexplored venues of space/time travel. Who knows, maybe this prototype will lead the world to a golden age of transportation where fossil fuels, or fuels in general are practically obsolete. Huh, you ever thought of that! DID YOU! NO I DIDN'T THINK YOU DID!
PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
