Last night someone set my car on fire and completely totaled it. The reason may have been a rainbow coloured bumper sticker similar to the Jello logo, that says "HELLO". Another car belong to a lesbian couple was also set on fire. Or it may have been because I dumbly left my wallet in the car. Chatham = Where Hate Crimes Happen!?! What the FUCK! |

I wish I could make something up this funny
Vincent Gallo's Sperm  $1 Million Price includes all costs related to one attempt at an in-vitro fertilization. (A $50,000 value) If the first attempt at in vitro fertilization is unsuccessful, purchaser of sperm must pay all medical costs related to additional attempts. Mr. Gallo will supply sperm for as many attempts as it takes to complete a successful fertilization and successful delivery. Sperm is 100% guaranteed to be donated by Mr. Gallo who is drug, alcohol and disease free. If the purchaser of the sperm chooses the option of natural insemination, there is an additional charge of $500,000. However, if after being presented detailed photographs of the purchaser, Mr. Gallo may be willing to waive the natural insemination fee and charge only for the sperm itself. Those of you who have found this merchandise page are very well aware of Mr. Gallo's multiple talents, but to add further insight into the value of Mr. Gallo's sperm, aside from being multi talented in all creative fields, he was also multi talented as an athlete, winning several awards for performing in the games of baseball, football and hockey and making it to the professional level of grand prix motorcycle racing. Mr. Gallo is 5'11" and has blue eyes. There are no known genetic deformities in his ancestry (no cripples) and no history of congenital diseases. If you have seen The Brown Bunny, you know the potential size of the genitals if it's a boy. (8 inches if he's like his father.) I don't know exactly how a well hung father can enhance the physical makeup of a female baby, but it can't hurt. Mr. Gallo also presently maintains a distinctively full head of hair and at the age of 43 has surprisingly few gray hairs. Though his features are sharp and extreme, they would probably blend well with a softer, more subtly featured female. Mr. Gallo maintains the right to refuse sale of his sperm to those of extremely dark complexions. Though a fan of Franco Harris, Derek Jeter, Lenny Kravitz and Lena Horne, Mr. Gallo does not want to be part of that type of integration. In fact, for the next 30 days, he is offering a $50,000 discount to any potential female purchaser who can prove she has naturally blonde hair and blue eyes. Anyone who can prove a direct family link to any of the German soldiers of the mid-century will also receive this discount. Under the laws of the Jewish faith, a Jewish mother would qualify a baby to be deemed a member of the Jewish religion. This would be added incentive for Mr. Gallo to sell his sperm to a Jew mother, his reasoning being with the slim chance that his child moved into the profession of motion picture acting or became a musical performer, this connection to the Jewish faith would guarantee his offspring a better chance at good reviews and maybe even a prize at the Sundance Film Festival or an Oscar. To be clear, the purchase of Mr. Gallo's sperm does not include the use of the name Gallo. The purchaser must find another surname for the child http://www.vgmerchandise.com/misc.html Current Mood:  goodCurrent Music: CBC |

Broken Record.....Broken Record
Had a good week at work, starting to feel as if i'm getting the hang of it. There are benefits to being a lame duck. Once my contract is up here i'm gone and most likely will never come back to this area again. So if so and so is pissed off at me for enforcing park land dedication on their little subdivision, or denying site permits because they are too close to the ocean there is no need to sweat it or take it personally. I’m an officer...a development officer! (one of the many hats I wear) my gun is a tape measure and my badge is a shitty looking business card. Being in my ‘mid’ twenties sometimes feels like a strange form of torture. Does anyone else wake up in the middle of the night thinking “What the Fuck am I going to do or am doing with my life”. Night terrors are much more unnerving than day terrors. I probably seem crazy or weird but when the bluedevils attack I try to fight them with ‘Heart’. If you have ‘heart’ everything will be fine. Now the super crazy part, I made myself a little reminder  An effect of living by myself in a tiny logging town with no attractive single women is the general reduction in my libido. I’m sure it will come back, but for now it isn’t exactly a problem....just one less thing I have to think about. Vancouver next weekend! Yeah! It looks as if I am going to see the Rolling Stones on Friday with my aunt and her boyfriend. I’m not that excited to see them (mainly because the price) but I’m sure I’ll enjoy it. I just found out that Van Morrison is the opening act. Van’s the Man! Other Observations: -Scarlett Johansson is the new Winona Ryder -The Arcade Fire are the new Bruce Springsteen and E Street Band -When I first saw this poster in a store I thought it was a joke.  I hope I don't sound like a broken record. Current Mood: dorkyCurrent Music: The Boss |

Another Saturday Night
It really doesn't feel like thanksgiving for me though I did splurge and buy super expensive back bacon. Yum Yum I just downloaded Adobe Premiere and started playing around with it. Don't know all the inns and outs yet, but i'm sure that will come. Anyway now I can start posting videos! I quickly put together a bunch of stuff from Yellowknife, it may come off as being a little over nostalgic but whatever (I listened to a lot of Guided By Voices up there). I miss that place. Sorry about the quality.... ( Yellowknife ) Current Mood: indifferentCurrent Music: Nick Cave |

Oh there is just so much I want to talk about. Why? Because I don’t have anyone to talk too, well not face to face. I always feel self conscience about my posts looking too long and get the feeling this one might fall under that category. So here’s a list of things I’m going to talk about followed by an LJ-Cut.

Thieves in the Temple
Well I’ve been pretty useless at work this Monday morning, starting your day with a very angry e-mail will do that, especially when the entire situation should have been avoided. My bad (insert telephone call that resolved the issue and I’m feeling better). This afternoon me and the CAO Greg are driving down to Woss to look at sewer lagoons, I don’t have to do anything and will most likely be paid overtime, so no complaints there. Also during the long drive I’ll be able to ask Greg a bunch of little questions (and some big ones), he’s a busy guy. In other work related news I had my first report to the Regional Board. I had to talk for about 15 minutes and everything went okay I guess. The power went out when I started talking and it helped settle my nerves as I had been mentally working myself up into a frenzy for the previous hour. I’m organizing a public hearing for October the 17th to discuss a proposed zoning bylaw amendment and have no idea if what I’m doing is right (enter Greg time here). The amendment is booze related so I’m guessing there will be a good turnout (whatever that is) The weeks are just flying by. I am lonely. So lonely. Sounds lame but I need a hug. Drinking by yourself; yay or nay? Internet is coming back once again, hopefully that will allow me not to feel totally isolated on weekends. I wish someone would just force me to buy a specific car. There are too many used cars out there, too many lemons. My schizophrenic neighbour (the one with the dog) allowed me to use is laundry last week. His place only consisted of a giant TV, giant speakers and futon. I guess he just sits/sleeps on the futon all day while chain smoking hand rolled cigarettes and playing videogames. The dog Penny was also in heat and the floor was covered in menstrual blood. We split of 6 pack of Pilsner and talked of video surveillance technology while waiting for the laundry to finish. In terms of my free time I found a new videostore at the edge of town with a much better selection than the convience store. I have been reading a lot of Douglas Copeland books which are okay, it was exciting when he mentioned the University of Waterloo and the Bomber in Microserfs. Still waiting on the painting supplies which I ordered, starting to worry about getting ripped off. Bought 25 pound free weights, feeling the burn. Mexican Independence Day party next weekend, sexy results?. I am going to steal the Van from work. I hope I’m not completely insane by Christmas. Current Mood: hopefulCurrent Music: Islands - Swans |

So Bored
Another boring Sunday, but one good thing about living on the West Coast is that NFL games start right around 9. Looking forward to the Bears/Packers and Colts/Giants games. I now have my laptop which is a bit boxier than I would like, but the insides are all good and the screen is larger than I thought. Also I am able to tap into a wireless network (i'm thinking from a B&B next door), so maybe that is one thing I don't have to pay for. What are some good sites to download music from? I've always been a a fan of Soulseek but you can only download so much at a time. I want to get into those Torrent sites I hear so much about. I also want to download some videogames. A car would really make my weekends more exciting. My goal is to have a good one by the end of this month. Last night I was thinking about all of the different jobs i've had. So in my boredom a list was drawn up. ( Here it is ) Current Music: Neil Young |

September 2006
I was thinking last night about how it is already September 2006, then I started thinking about September 2005. Usually years feel like they are flying by fast, but last September feels like it was 5 years ago. I'm in a totally different situation and mindset from then. Not better or worse, just different. In other news: It's so fucking cold in this office!!! I'm being 'set-up' with a Mexican girl from Coal Harbour this weekend. She's studying to be a Vet. Current Mood:  cold |

Time Passes
So I’m living out here on the West Coast and it seems very weird to me. For some reason I never thought that I’d live in British Columbia, but here I am. One thing for certain the next place I live is going to have lots of people! People of similar age and interests of myself. Port McNeill is made up of little kids and old people. Bullet points seem like an easier way to mention shit. Sooooo here you go: -Car shopping has official begun. There is an old VW Bug that for sale that is supposedly and excellent condition and cheap. A fellow fixed it up for his daughter, but she refused based on the fact that she didn't want to learn how to drive a stick. That would be a 'fun' first car. -The closest Royal Bank is 2 hours away so I had to open a CIBC account (the only bank in town) and because the Regional District has some sort of objection to direct deposit it is now going to be a pain in the ass to pay down my frequently used VISA. -The job is good and I have some real power which is new. People treat me with respect immediately because I am the giver of Building Permits and Licenses of Occupancy. -The planning here is fucked. Due to its small population we don't actually have building inspectors. It is up to the owner to make sure that their new house/addition is up to code. All enforcement of all by-laws is through a complaint driven process. So I hear allot of people complaining. Also the Ministry of Transportation has authority over all subdivisions of land within the Regional District. We're not in Ontario anymore. -It is driving me crazy that I’m unable to watch any of the FIBA World Championships. Keta Cable sucks! -Watched the movie Black Christmas last night and it was excellent. Canadian horror movies from the 70's are very underrated. Margot Kidder was very attractive. -Where is my new Laptop?? -Collecting enough furniture to fill my apartment is a slow process. Is it cool to put bad art (i.e. 2x2 framed photo of a Tiger) up on your walls? The North Coast has plenty of it. -I seriously want lots of people to visit me this coming year. Open bar and all the food you can eat while your here. I'm desperate for company. -Finally some pictures in and around the North ( Coast ) Current Mood:  blankCurrent Music: No Music |

I can't believe i'm moving again Sunday morning. Most likely it won't seem 'real' for atleast a week out there. But hey, how about some JB pics of friends. I wish I could have partied all night. ( Party ) Current Mood:  tired |
