A benefit to having a lousy memory: you only need a couple of movies and few books in your private collection; watch/read them again and again. It's new to you!

Time is another of the great equalizers (death being another). Everyone has the same amount of time in a day, week, or year. We use our time to play, work, sleep, and various other activites. Some people turn their time into money through work. Some people make $5 an hour while others make thousands of dollars an hour. Some sleep 10 hours a day while others sleep 4. Some people look at time like money while others do not. Do you spend and invest time? People who do tend to get worried and upset if they do not feel they have gotten the return on their investment they were expecting. This return may come as a feeling such as happiness, satisfaction, or love. It may also come in monetary means. The more money a person has, the more valuable his time becomes. Therefore, a relatively poor person might invest 4 hours for $30 in return. An affluent individual might need $3,000 in exchange for those same 4 hours. Money is not the only factor here. A wealthy individual will accept -$ for time if the happiness, satisfaction, love, etc. is great enough. In conclusion, as a person's monitary wealth changes (a variable resource) it's value relative to a person's time (a static resource) changes.

I went to see the new Eminem movie "8-Mile" at the midnight showing on opening night. Never have I smelled so much pot in a movie theater.

"TNN: We've got Pop." What is that about? What exactly is pop and how is it possible that TNN has it? In my experience, the only shows on TNN are fishing/hunting shows, "Horse Power TV," NASCAR, and reruns of "Dukes of Hazard." I would like to suggest a name change for TNN: it should now be refered to as TRNN (Total Red Neck Network).

The Shakespearian Insulter

Oh yes, and the Cincinnati proposal to join the free world (as in free to live without a car as a lifestyle choice, free to take mass transit, free to not sit in bumper to bumper traffic with 2 million SUVs, and free help the environment) failed miserably. I think I'm leaving.

I voted yesterday. I checked the results online today and was disappointed to discover that they didn't listen to me. How discouraging...

I've decided what I want to do when I grow up: I want to be part of the Ninja Turtles. But I don't want to be a turtle but rather something more impressive like a tiger. I could be called "Teenage Mutant Ninja Tiger." Now that would be cool...

What's up with artificial grape flavoring? It tastes entirely nothing like a grape. Although artificial "grape" flavoring is quite good, it really shouldn't pretend to be something it isn't. I propose renaming "artificial grape flavoring," "purple flavoring" because that's really what it is.

I feel sorry for smart people with southern accents. Cus ya ain't gunna sound 2 intellergint cus-a yer aksent.
