  • Seriously, how much is this me?

    Do you like philosophy? Did you like resevoir dogs? do you like the idea of Socrates pistol whipping somebody? then you will love this.

    I have been feeling so much of the random lately, and not of the
    stress. How do you know this? well one, because i am telling you. And
    two, because more stress=more posts, and I have not been doing that
    because it has been a good week. Not a great week, just a good one.

    New Game!

    Add a new one to the bottom of the list in either comment form, or post
    the whole thing on your page. I dont think most of these are official
    army cadences, but really, who cares?

    I DOn’t Know, but I’ve Been Told

    1. The Parthenon is mighty old
    2. Eskimo pussy is nice and cold
    3. The streets in heaven are paved with gold
    4. You never slow down, you never grow old
    5. About a man named leopold
    6. tht shower curtain is covered with mold
    7. we take echinacea so we wont catch cold
    8. double blind and placebo controlled

    It is true that I am more prone to getting things stuck in my head than
    most people (because of this I would probably make an excellent
    Manchurian Candidate—must! kill! president!)
    but this game is going to stick with me.

    So in the spirit of being all intellectul and shiznit, here is a
    educational drinking game for Kelly. For anyone else who wants it too,
    but i figured Kelly would appreciate this the most. and maybe Ken.
    because he has the same weird sense of humor as I

    The Immanuel Kant Drinking Game

  • Everyone grab a shot glass or alcoholic beverage.
  • Procure a copy of Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason
  • Open to any random page and start reading aloud. When Kant
    uses the phrase “a priori” you must stop and everyone has to pound a
    shot or take a hit off a drink.
  • Pass the book to the next person and continue.

    You may be thinking that this game sounds pretty lame. But if you have
    ever read Kant, you are fully aware that the man had a physical
    disorder that prevented him from writing a paragraph without using the
    phrase “a priori” at least twice. Everyone will be bombed after one
    chapter. And hey, your stupid ass might actually learn something.

That was a copy and paste from some site or another but marvelous fun nonetheless. And whew, they were not kidding.

erm.

my freking “a” key doesnt seem to work unless i press it very hard or
tp it lightly twice. just once is not enough for the lazy fucking a
key. So if my posts suddenly seem to be drifting too much into IM spek,
that is why (d00d! im t0t411y g0nn4 sm4sh my k3yb04rd b/c i 4m the
120xx012s, u n00bz)

Nonetheless, despite my slow downward spiral into toddler speak, the
weekend was fun. friday was clubbing at zentra, wherein jayan literally
got so drunk he actually could not stand. I did not know this could
happen, but in fact it can-we handed him a bottle of water, and he sat
down in the middle of the club floor to drink it, at which point the
bouncer escorted him outside. Not that he was being rowdy, the bouncer
at zentra was throwing everyone out for some reason. maybe he was
terribly shy and couldnt bear to be around so many people.

He even threw me out and i was nowhere near drunk enough to be tossed
from a club. All i know is that i asked some guy standing near the door
where the bathroom was, and next thing i know, it is a lot colder and I
am outside. I didn’t think clubs wanted you to “officially” pee on
their walls, but when in rome…

either way, they demanded i pay the entry fee to get back in, even after i corrected their mistake. jerkwads.

SO tomorrow i shall post pictures of zentra and the hijinks that ensued. (I promise! really!)

I shall also post pics of my halloween costume as long as i am going pic crazy.

The rest of the weekend was fun as well. Saturday i lazed about the
house, watched old 70′s kung fu movies (have i mentioned how much i
love terrible movies? cuz i do. there is nothing that can cheer me up
faster than a terribly thought out flick of yesteryear) and followed it
up by going out bowling with Ryan and the Godfather. For Tam’s 2nd time
only bowling, he did damn well. Ryan and I however bowled okay, but
spent half of our 2nd game and all of our 3rd goofing off, palming the
ball (i.e. bowling without using the finger holes) bowling on tippytoes
like the flintstones, bowling granny style, behind the back, kicking
the ball and all sorts of stuff.

oh and thanks to the dity workout, i can now bowl easily with the 14lb
ball. In case you are wondering about the dity workouts effect on my
musculature (and you must be, because who doesn’t want to hear about
me?) here are the results as of our last max day

Bench-135 (my body weight at the time, although now i am 138)
Curl-30lbs
Dips-20 in a row
Pullups-10
one armed pull ups -not quite yet, but getting there
Lat pulls-140
one armed handstand- 1 minute, with a spot

so yeah, working my way closer to becoming batman everyday

today was Daylight savings end? did you remember? i didn’t
instead i made a traditional dia de los muertos dinner for some friends and we watched dumb and dumber

and when i say traditional, i mean that i cook theme dinners for every major holiday
the dinner was a pork tamale casserole with cornbread topping, spanish
red beans and rice, and for dessert flan, pumpkin pie, pan de los
muertos, all made by yours truly

alrighty, that does it for me. until tomorrow and the picture post folks!

Josh is as excited as a kid in a candy store for Halloween

  • Ummm…you need to cook for me sometime!!  Hehehe…damn all the food you made and I never got to partake, that is just soooo wrong!! 

  • You’re fun-philosophy central today, man!  Thanks for calling me out, because you know, you’re right.  I’m nerdy enough to have brought some Kant with me to Japan (what?), and I’m totally making everyone play the next time I have a wine party.

    And, I’m some three or four hours away from Shimanto City, but it’s still in Kochi.  So fun times can be arranged.  Who do you know there?

  • LOL. how’d you find this?
