writ. dodging classification

per Mat’s post here.
my comment: Dude, you don’t know how small those killer robots can be made like man. You don’t even know. You accept some harmless looking post card, and then BAM! something jumps up like a transformer and starts going GINSU on you and your office-mates asses.!!!

fear it!!

Mat:  hahahahaha, i totally just laughed out loud and my office-mate is like “huh? what are you laughing at….”

Me: I aim to please.  Whats even funnier is the image i had in my head while i was writing that comment of you fighting off a postcard robot while trying to lasso it with your necktie.

so mat tagged me to do a blog survey.. much like we have seen before in e-mail forwards or in myspace bulletins. Lets see how it goes.

If I tagged you, the rules are you have to come up with a list like this. No changing the categories.

This conversation was provoked by an old AIM buddy icon i used to have that everybody always wanted me to change because it was creepy.

Boehm**: dude change your icon
Boehm**: that’s getting really creepy
Torent**: never!
Torent**: it is really creepy hehe.. i just im’d myself to see the pic again..
Boehm**: you know how twisted that is, right?
Torent**: what that I have a picture of my own eyeball close up on my IM
Torent**: …. I’m watching you boehm.. i’m watching you… hehe.. its better than the old.. “not touching you trick” .. i don’t even have to be in the same state
Boehm**: STOP IT!
Torent**: so whats with the blue shirt today..? you wore that yesterday
Torent**: eh.. just a guess.. that’d be seriously messed up if you were wearing a blue shirt.. that you wore yesterday
Boehm**: STOP IT
Boehm**: cause I was wearing a blue shirt today that I wore yesterday
Boehm**: I’m not now…
Boehm**: butg I was!
Torent**: BHAH!!

So yeah .. i deleted my old blogspot blog today, just because i wanted to. It had a year of posts on it from January 2003 to January 2004. Nothing really great or important. This was about the only thing i wanted to salvage.

So yes. Its that time of year again. Football season. I, as you may know, am an Eagles fan. I hail from a place just south of Philadelphia. Tonight is the Monday night football game that the Eagles have the honor of opening their season with against the Atlanta Falcons. I can’t describe my feelings once the super bowl was over at the end of last season. In fact i probably can’t remember them, I had been drinking since 3pm, and didn’t stop till 10:30pm, about 3o minutes before the end of the game. I may have stopped drinking a little if the eagles gave me a shred of hope. But no it didn’t happen. But here’s what i don’t forget. They fucking got to the super bowl!!! they were NFC champions. They didn’t just get to the NFC championship game like they had done for 3 years in a row before that, they actually got through it, to the big game!!

This year. With all the drama, and craziness. Even, as I’m sitting here more drama has happened. Jeremiah Trotter has been thrown out of the game before it even started, because he was involved in a fight on the field during warmups. Someone from the falcons was thrown out to. I really don’t know what to think of this. Honestly they shouldn’t throw them out, but oh well, we’ll live.

Lets get watching some football!!!! Go EAGLES!

Eagles!!!

(here’s hoping it’ll be a good one, no this will be a good one. Emotions are so high right now, everybody heads have to be in the game! this should be great!)

EDIT: Update 12:33am … 1 word Choke … Falcons 14, Eagles 10. ugh! :(

I finally reworked another theme for this blog. I think its sweet…. its not completely finished yet. I have random image chooser for the header to finish up, and I also have to make the links at the top real, plus add some stuff to the sidebar that I want added (like my spycam, and random post generator and maybe something else that I can’t remember right now.)

take a look around … i’m going to leave it on the new theme for a little while, even though its not quite finished .. just so people can comment on it.

(i know not all the top navigation bar links work, i’m not sure how i want to use them yet .. so be patient!)

Wow I’ve got over a 100 posts on my blog site now, and I’m coming up on the year anniversary of writing this blog and having this domain. Thats pretty badass. I think its coming along pretty well honestly.

Really… Why does the thought of golfing or going to the driving range come across my mind on a beautiful day, and immediately when I check the weather .. it says this beautiful day that we’ve been having is about to get ransacked by a thunderstorm or rainstorm or whatever other kind of meteorological craziness.

just my thoughts. I can’t figure it out. It just always happens. Always. Nice hot 90 degree day.. and i want to go to the driving range later at night when it cools down. Yep… its thunderstorming right now. Seriously .. what the heck.

So i saw some guitars the other day that were pretty cool, with art and or stickers on them. It made me think about findig some good stickers and such to put on one of my guitars, in some sort of art project. I mean honestly neither of my guitars really has any sort of value to them, so I wouldnt’ be worried about lessening the value by defacing them with interesting stickers.

I’m wondering what i should find. What do i want to do? Ideas .. slowly coming to me. Whow knows. They do kind of look slick just on their own though. I think i need a plan .. i don’t want to just slap stuff on willy nilly, cause it could just turn into some tacky disaster. Oh well just a random idea.

Jeremy Fresques was a friend of mine. I haven’t seen him in 3.5 years, and when I knew him I only knew him for about 3.5 months during my Air Force communications officer school. He was probably one of the nicest guys you could meet, and he was very determined in his goals. When I knew him he was training to take the test to get into Spec Ops schools. Since that school I really hadn’t kept in touch with him, just heard a little of his progress through other friends. He was a friend (even if I only knew him a short time) and guy i’ll remember from that time in my life probably for the rest of my days.

The guy had a weakness for chinese buffet sugar donuts even though he was eating everything else ultra healthy and working out every day to get in shape to go to spec ops school, which is something I always found humorous and kind of added to his personality and why i thought he was a cool guy. Him and some of my other friends (like jimmy page in my links on the right) went to see Black Hawk Down when it premiered. That was an experience.

Rest in peace brother.
