| Ok yes, fine. You type in "Cavan Cox" to google under images, and you will see both the photo and the article.
It wasn't quite as bad as the journalist might lead you to
believe. But yes, i got my ass handed to me... and a broken
jaw... from that particular encounter. Even I lose occasionally=)

| CRASH: top notch movie, very heavy stuff. Don't buy the
hype, its about careless judgements and human dichotomies not "racism"
any more than the civil war was all about "slavery". Yes is deals
with racism, but that is far from the only issue.
Been going to Kichoff recently, they have a much better coffee shop than the one I run lol, wonder if its heavily subsidized?
PS moving into a remodeled nunnery in august, this is going to be cool=) check that off the list!

| A nice garden with cherry trees, mossy-stone walking paths, a gentle
stream and a a stout bridge. A gentle breeze to rustle over head,
dew in the morning and pleasant sunshine in the day... torches to light
the paths at night, surrounded by high walls that block out the sound
and the chaos. Some flowers to tend in the spring and a small
orchard to walk through when it's too bright. Cool marble statues
and benches to sit on while reading books about poetry, novels about
life, and adventures from another person's imagination. When it
rains you can smell it in the air long before it falls, because you can
breathe deep whenever you want andnot worry about smoke. Squirels
play in trees, interesting to watch but quiet and muffled by the
bubbling of the cool stream.
A three-sided cubicle half submerged in crumbled incoices and memos,
its walls barely visible because of the certificates and crappy
reminders pinned against it with cheap tacks. A phone that never
stops ringing, a PA system that never stops talking, a computer that
runs just well enough not to be replaced, and a printer that has to be
hand fed. Drawers full of chaos from years in the past, and 10
binders full cover to cover with planagrams and charts, regulations and
corporate policy. Tensity a match for a thousand masseuses and
air you can chew. The smell of wet raincoats drying a wall away.
But the peanuts are on the wrong side of the planagram. Its on page 34 of the red binder.
Maybe there's a path Narnia in the supply closet. But I would
settle for my orchard in the spring when the cherry blossoms look
like a pink buoquet in the ground.

| Sorry Erin, I didn't see you post until today... and its Monday. Anyway
the Hershesys and Schnapps is good... so are Sake Bombs and Irish Car
Bombs. Those are always winners.
In other news, Sin City continues to evade me. I got two new sets
of jeans from the... Marine Corps? Yes, that;'s right! Some
designer dropped off boxes of his newest jeans at our drill center, so
we would wear them and it would give him good publicity. FREE. They
wouldn't be my first choice to wear, but will I wear them for free?
Damn straight.

| Hmm new entry. Bought whiskey today. Drank it. Had a
conversation in Chinese at Lollicup.. just in time to find out they are
closing for business and I won't get to have another. Guess i
will keep speaking chinese like a retarded three year old crack baby
with down syndrome.
In other news, i saw an interesting analysis of our defense situation
on CSPAN... the argument was essentially that in modern warfare too
much manpower is a liability not an asset, so to increase our military
effectiveness we should NOT be increasing our manpower. Solid
reasoning.
Hopefully i will watch Sin City tomorrow if I can get someone to go with. I'ts just not worth 10 bucks to go alone=P
Works a pain int he ass... I enjoyed Borders more as an employee and
less as a supervisor, but I'm going to tough it out for a while. I need
a job to last a while for once, and this one isn't bad. I like
the people, I have health benefits, the salary blow sbut I can always
get a a second job.
In other news, need 2 more roommatesto split a 4 BDR apartment somewhere in west LA if anyone is up to it.
Cheers
