Perils of the Musical Journey

This is my system for music: I find new music I like either over the raido or through Pandora (By the way, just a note: don't do drugs.) then I listen to it in Youtube and then I put it in my Playlist.

Issues with this are: Pandora plays music similar to the track you pick but not the same. So I end up wading through music thats okay but not what sings to me for days and days, then my hours are used up and I resort to just listening to whats already in my playlist.

When I go onto Youtube I always try to find a music video for it. problem is that SOME songs have REALLY BAD music videos. I don't mean bad quality (well that too) but bad morals. Like I really like the song "One Night in Bangkok" by Vinyl Shakerz. But the music video is... 4 minutes of Porn, with good music. Stuff like that doesnt keep me from adding them to my playlist, but it sure aint cool. I have other examples, but you know you know music vids like that too.

Then I put it on Playlist: Great Site!!! I love that site. But there are a few issues. Like the fact that I overuse playlist.com so much that I know all the songs by heart and the novelty wears off faster than the novelty of 0f T@LK|/\/ G L|K3 T|-| |5. (Ive heard its called the MySpace language 0_o).

It Just Ain't Fair!!

Life isn't necessarily fair. Liberals are all about  maintaining fairness and they take it to the point of being unreasonable. Being fair is great. But lets be reasonable! These groups (often Liberal) take large measures to bring fairness not just to everyone but everyTHING.

A past blog post talked about the Delta Smelt and how these groups shut down people's farms to "save" this tiny minnow-like fish. Now I say that is taking things too far! Im up for fairness, most conservatives are! But I and others like me try and hope for a government that maintains as much fairness as possible without hurting the nation or losing their reason.

Think about it: Animal Rights Activists, Vegans (and people like them), Extreme Environmentalists, Socialists/Communists, advocates for the  "distribution of the wealth", hippies and even evolutionists (note most of these groups are primarily or solely liberal) all can be drawn to being based around equality and fairness. Humanity obviously has a desire and a struggle to maintain an equilibrium and peace between everyone and apparently now, everything.

Unfortunately mankind is just not able to function with a system that would provide that.

Attempts to keep everyone "fair" only allows for countless holes for Corruption and Manipulation. Thats how Stalin and Lenin Operated and even Hitler. A system (like Communism) was developed to provide universial fairness to each individual. Well when you are operating the system you can easily pop up and twist the system to do your will rather than the people's.

The Pattern in History as Marx put it is that there are exploiters and the alienated (the exploited). Although Marx did not realize that there are always exploiters and the alienated in any government.  In Marx's ideal government it had the perfect opportunities for the people keeping other people in fairness to rise up and become the exploiters. Just like what happened during the French Revolution with Robspierre.

The Exploiters NEVER leave, they just take different forms. In Capitalism the exploiters are the CEOs and the corporate fat cats. But the Nice thing about Capitalism is that the greed of all the exploiters keeps the whole system in relative check and ensures that the exploited aren't as exploited as they would be otherwise. So because the very thing that exploits the exploited is kept in check by competing exploiters, Capitalism is still the best system we can use that we know of.

D'OH!

Well there I go again hurting myself. my back, again. I had a failed attempt at a jump off a trampoline into a 3foot deep pool and pegged my head at the bottom. Scary thing! I managed to stand up out of the water but then none of my non-automatic functions worked. I couldnt move my legs nor my arms or mouth or anything, I just could stand. My friend Bryan helped me to the side of the pool. I eventually regained control of my functions but it was scary. I couldnt even move my mouth to spit out the water in my throat and mouth, I couldnt breathe. Anyways when I hit the bottom I damaged my upper back. So... ehh. Fortunately it wasnt as bad as my lower back injury and I found myself dancing to "Just Dance" by Lady Gaga with my siblings, so Im hoping ill be okay. It really hurts... Charlie.

Needless to say it was kinda a D'oh! Moment even though I couldnt talk.

I like my Bawls, leave the Cherry... LOL

Yes, I had bawls last night. They arent bad, but the cherry flavour sucks. If you don't know Bawls is an energy drink. I usually dont drink energy drinks at all, but I saw the bottles and was like... "dibs"! Other stupid energy drink names:

 Mana Energy Potion (geeks get it), Mamajuana, Obama Energy (I kid you not its real), Pimpjuice, Rehab, C-4 Explosive (they make it look like a firework!).  Im sure there is more but this is what I found, these made me just LOL in my room. Either it was those or the Bawls im drinking. Speaking of LOL, everytime someone says LOL think of this face
 :
Look hard at it for a while and EVERYTIME someone says LOL think of that face and you will at least smile. (Thanks, Aimee)

Youtube Commenting gone Bananas

RANT! I am soooo tired of going onto youtube and EVERY music video has some stupid kid that is like "The dislike bar is bigger than Justin Beiber's dick" or "This artist should have a quadrillion more views than JB" or something along those lines. EVERY MUSIC VIDEO!!!!!! I do not exaggerate, spend a day on youtube and just look at all the songs you love, I almost guarantee there will be at least one JB comment. Its soooo annoying. Justin Beiber isnt good enough to deserve a comment on every video. And if there isnt a JB comment there is some stupid, callow and pathetic Religious or Political argument. And if I call one of those pathetic then you better know it is.

Fun Fact: (actually its kinda...idk find your own word) Mosquitoes are attracted to Bananas. If you have banana in your blood you will be choice number one for the little buggers! Don't bring bananas to camping trips. I must have had banana starburst or something because I went to the Tetons a few weeks ago and I was covered in bites!!!

Ak Bars Kazan and Burritos

Ak Bars Kazan (Russian: Ак Барс Казань, Tatar Cyrillic: Ак Барс Казан, Latin: Aq Bars Qazan, English: Kazan Snow Leopards) is a professional ice hockey team based in Kazan, in the Republic of Tatarstan, a federal subject of the Russian Federation. They are currently playing in the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL).
The team's name, Ak Bars, is derived from the official symbol of Tatarstan, translated as Snow Leopard, a traditional symbol which has its origins with the Barsil, one of the Tatar tribes.

The Random Article thing on wikipedia ROCKS! hahahaha so this is my special random article that came up when I pressed that oh so beautiful button.  

So yesterday my girlfriend and I were holding hands. I am blessed with a good amount of Mexican(o) blood in me and she is quite white. So she looked at our hands and is like "Im so white!!" and I said "We go together like... beans and sour cream in a burrito." Now ain't that just the most romantic thing you've ever heard right? Well what are some funny, cheesy, or outright stupid things you have said to a lover, a friend, boss or whoever?

My Watch Grew Wings and My Back Hurt

Whoa! I finally rediscovered the blog. Its good to be here again. I left a few months ago and just never came back. I have now returned, changed the name and lets see how long I last this time! ^_^

My back actually did get injured though. I got a herniated disk a few months ago... at age 16. No bueno.
Several factors led to this:
1. I helped two people move in a single day
2. I bench pressed 30lbs more than I am used to on that same day (stupid)
3. I ran 7(ish) miles on that same day
4. Me and My friend Paul tried to find out who could pick up the biggest piece of deadfall in the forest...on that same day.
Im sure there were other factors but that about did it. I damaged a disk. Ill tell you what it hurts!!! But Im back, and lets kick off with a little Merengue   (how do you pronounce that!?)

Feel the Repeal!

So Obamacare has been repealed in the House of Representatives! YAY! but dont throw a party yet, The repeal of ObamaCare still has to go through the Senate.  The Senate has 53 Dems and 46 Reps...and Lisa Murkowski. There needs to be a majority vote, but the Democrats hold the most senate seats. Its up to them to help us repeal ObamaCare! Lets pray they come around.

South Sudan

New country appearing in the world!! Early, '08 we had Kosovo pop up in the former Yugoslavia, now we have the Nation of South Sudan. Many issues are immediately given to the new country


1. Most of the oil (a large part of all Sudanese Economics) is Sudan is in Southern Sudan. There was an agreement before stating that the North got 50% of the income and the South  got 50%. Even though the South is the place where the oil is. The question with this issue is: Will South Sudan keep this agreement? If they do, they might be saving themselves from its nation's first war. If they don't they might just start their nation's first war. With North Sudan.

2. South Sudan will be one of the poorest countries in the world. And that's saying something considering the other African nations. South Sudan is also not in a geographical location for much improvement without a great deal of capital. The question: Will the government of South Sudan be wise and efficient and start the nation off great? Keep it with no improvements that aren't checked by degradements? Or Send the country worse than it already is? Keep your eyes on that.

3. Religious Tensity: North and South Sudan split, mainly because South Sudan is Christian and North Sudan is Muslim. Many other countries surrounding Sudan are Muslim as well. The Question: Will South Sudan find itself in a religious war against North Sudan or another Muslim country...or both?

Politcian's Game


Politician’s Game
by Victor Atkinson

They fight over chair and desk
Its a trap for the man and coin
The battle is truly grotesque
It’s quite a fun game, will you join?

Rules are simple and reward is great
You sit on your duff and shout
You reap what you sow and what you sow is hate
You stir up clouds of doubt

Take all the riches that you can,
make sure its more than enough,
Find every thing that you can ban
Make sure their lives are hard and rough

Its never you who does anything wrong
Its always the other guy
Who strikes the crowd and beats the throng
He is the one who ought to die

It truly is a crusade in here
But it always happens the same
You spread the lies and you spread the fear
 In the politician’s game

We put the Ugh in Thought

   Society has progressively gone downhill as to how we think. We don't think about what matters anymore. In financial, political, religious, domestic, and really anything anymore do average people think hard enough about what they are doing. When some sucker is offered a "too good to be true" kind of deal (scam) they don't stop to think that maybe it is. When people are voting (if they even vote (which in itself is thoughtlessness)) many these days don't stop to think about policies or what the candidates will do for the country, they just go with whoever has the funnier name or who looks the best. It is a little saddening to watch the people around you ruin themselves and others by thoughtlessness.

So lets stick with the old adage "Think before you leap".

California or Bust!

Its more like California will bust. Seriously, read this:
"22 out of 35 of the cities with the worst unemployment rate in USA are in California and Florida (only 3 are in Michigan - I was surprised-). 8 out of 10 are in California. The worst is in the great valley of California because the farmers are out of work because the government cut off the water supply to save some stupid animal."  That stupid animal which is causing millions to suffer is called a Delta Smelt. Wikipedia-Delta Smelt (Look there if you want more) It is pretty much a 5cm long transparent fish that cant even be eaten. I am totally for animal protection here. Just not at the cost of human livelihood. Those farmers in California don't deserve to be hurt by a fish of that unimportance. Maybe if the entire race of bovines was going extinct, but they're not...at all.


That is two examples as to how California is doing. I see California as a good state with a trend-following, self-centered, socialistic, pot-smoking, whiny, hippie government! Now I like California, its pretty, good beaches and I can say probably half of the populous is decent people. But the Government is treating the people like crap and ruining millions of lives for their precious transparent minnows, their weed, their beloved dollar bills and blessed wind mills. It makes me sick.


They are a socialist government. Socialism is supposed to be a system for the benefit of everyone and would be granted that ALL HUMAN BEINGS WERE PERFECT...but we most certainly are not! Hence Socialism is, in reality, a system where hard working fellows give homage essentially to people who do nothing. California spends roughly 39% of its income on PENSION!!! That is a PERFECT example of the reality of Socialism. Dang, if I was a politician in California, I would make a KILLING off of chair-sitting, I'm pretty good at that.


Back to the fish (its just that stupid). Humans are superior. We have a depth of consciousness shared by NOTHING ELSE. We can think intelligently, we can show so much more feeling and emotion than an itsy bitsy dumb fish! The fact that we debate over whether to save the Delta Smelt, is proof that we are better than them. 


And as a final statement: I am not against the people of California, just the government.
