Watching Much Music this week, and hearing news of yet another fight between opposing “hip-hop” (my brother assures me this is what they are, but I’m not up with the lingo, or “hip to the jive” if you will) artists (which ones, I don’t remember, I wasn’t paying careful attention. But does it even matter?), I realized (now, this did not take a lot of thought) (this is another set of parentheses just for fun) that there is quite obviously an extreme over-population of the species, resulting in most of the recent violent behaviour. Each family group of these artists occupies an extensive territorial range, and will not tolerate intrusion by other family groups (i.e. “East Side” vs. “West Side”).

This is why I propose an open hunting season on hip-hop artists and their gangs (or “clans,” “posses,” etc). Their numbers must be evened out to balance the ecosystem of popular music. By instigating a controlled culling, perhaps a better level sustainability can be attained in the environment between hip-hop artists, and artists of all other musical styles. If the population is allowed to swell further, it could have a negative impact on other species, most particularly the “boy-band” and “girl-band” populations, which compete for the same spotlight. Planned herd management to control the recent population boom will additionally prevent random outburts of violence, resulting in safer clubbing for all. The ecosystem can only support a certain number of P. Diddys…

So… my website is working again then, eh?
That’s good.
And would be ever so much more useful if I had something to say right now.
But you can’t have everything.

Okay, that’s it… This cost $500, if I’ve got it straight… It makes me very angry to see people do things badly and get paid way too much for it, only because I’m not doing the same thing…

Real life needs more foreshadowing.

Harry Potter has some of the worst foreshadowing of any book I have ever read. It’s so obvious. Couldn’t be much more so by putting the end of the book at the beginning. Sure, it’s a kids book. But that isn’t any excuse for such bad writing. I really can’t see what’s so great about the series (maybe I’ll ask my little brother). It’s written in a style that reminds me of my own. In grade three. Except that some of my jokes were funny. The ones in Harry Potter get about halfway, which is more pathetic than having none at all. But if that’s what becomes a bestseller, um, that’s it… I’m becoming a writer…

I need to get to a library, in order to find something better to read than my little brother’s copy of Harry Potter. The universe apparently wants me to read Vonnegut. I’ll do it, okay? All eight of you can shut up about it now… Guh.

I have a strange urge to watch “Biodome” right now. Is there something necessarily wrong with me?

Personally, I think the line in that Depeche Mode “Dream On” song would be better if they changed “giving” to “given.” Not that you can tell the difference.

I had some problems with the phrase “dating the sphinx” tonight. I couldn’t figure out for a good five minutes that it meant figuring out how old it was. I need to get to sleep, I think.

Anyway. I’m not going to do that. I’m going to make myself a lovely website. That looks like the rest of the internet. With lots of little tables outlined with one-pixel-wide white borders on a dark (but never black) background. And grid patterns layered onto all of my graphics. And a navigation bar with little white-all-capital-helvetica links. Guh. And a monochromatic colour scheme. And then I’m going to bang my head against a brick wall. So maybe it’s pretty. I hate it, though. And I’m going to scream in a minute, if I see one more of these. I’d link to some, but I don’t think anyone needs help finding one.

I have the word “corn” written on my left hand, and I don’t remember why. At least, I think it says “corn.” It seems as though it might say “porn,” instead. Also, the O looks a little bit like it might be an A. I hope that this wasn’t about anything important.

Multiple choice.
This is very easy.
Name this object:

a) file
b) folder

If you can’t figure it out, these two sentences may help you.
Which of these is correct:

a) I am going to put my file into this file.
b) I am going to put my file into this folder.

If you still don’t know which answer is correct, I’m afraid you will be removed from this planet immediately.
Along with anyone who pronounces GIF with a J.
