> Tell me not in mournful numbers, life is but an empty dream!- For the soul is dead that slumbers, and things are not what they seem. Life is real! Life is earnest! and the grave is not its goal; dust thou art to dust returnest, was not spoken of the soul. Not enjoyment and not sorrow, is our destined end or way; but to act that each tomorrow find us farther than today. Art is long and Time is fleeting, and our hearts though stout and brave, still like muffled drums are beating funeral marches to the grave. In the world's broad field of battle in the bivouac of life, be not like dumb driven cattle! Be a hero in the strife! Trust no future howe'er pleasant let the dead past bury its dead! Act,-act in the living Present! Heart within, and God o'erhead! Lives of great men all remind us we can make our lives sublime, and, departing leave behind us footprints on the sands of time; Footprints that perhaps another, Sailing o'er life's solemn main, a forlorn and shipwrecked brother, seeing, shall take heart again. Let us, then, be up and doing, with a heart for any fate; still achieving still pursuing, learn to labor and to wait

A letter worth Reading

In my musings on google news...I found this letter.  It sums up the whole James Cameron idiocrity (yes..I made up a word)

If he were honest, this is what Mr. Cameron would have said to the press:

“My dearest friends in the media,

Thank you for being here. I must admit, I am pleasantly surprised so many of you have come. Our public relations company had quite the challenge to convince you our commercial projects were headline-worthy. After all, what we are peddling is pseudo-science based on old and discredited news. But we obviously hired the right company. They came through on their promise that you wouldn’t remember, or wouldn’t care, that when this tomb was discovered twenty seven years ago, the Jewish archeologist in charge of the investigation, Amos Kloner, determined it was not the tomb of Jesus and his family and that, in fact, it is unlikely Jesus and his relatives even had a family tomb. To think that not a single respected archeologist from the Holy Land region is willing to go on record that our claims are true, and still you are here with us today, is mind-boggling. How can we thank you enough?

We really got scared when people like Joe Zias, who spent 25 years as an archeologist at Rockefeller University in Jerusalam, called into question our integrity. I think he said publicly “Simcha has no credibility whatsoever.” And even though the great archeologist, Amos Kloner, tried to rain on our party when he said, “The claim that the burial site has been found is not based on any proof, and is only an attempt to sell,” you were not deterred. You are here, and we are so happy!

By the way, did you hear our book is now in the top five of Amazon.com? Amazing! I am thinking about doing some other projects where I set science — even pseudo-science — up against religion. I think I’ll release them during the annual “slam Christianity season” — Lent and Easter — featuring a New York City press conference. We’ll win every time. Christians will be quiet. They won’t set cars on fire or blow anyone up, precisely because they believe in the Resurrection, that Jesus’ way of peace is better. They will, however, get nervous because they don’t really know much about their faith and will buy the book and watch the show.

This brings me to the real point of today’s press conference. Today is my day for revenge. When I received my Oscar for best director a few years ago, I looked out into the crowd and proclaimed, “I am the king of the world”. That’s what I felt on that day and I wouldn’t have said it, if I didn’t believe it. But some of my Hollywood colleagues have looked down on me ever since. They thought I was exaggerating. As my movie credits prove, I’ve been sidelined since that day. But when I found the two-thousand year old scribblings on a tomb wall and, with the help of mathematicians, extrapolated that Jesus’ tomb was not really empty, that he may not have risen from the dead, as two billion people believe today, I realized how true my Oscar’s acceptance speech really was. It was kind of prophetic, I guess. The real king of the world — James Cameron — calls into question the King of Kings.

So don’t forget to buy our book and watch the Discovery Channel on March 4th.”

So...this easter be sure to do some rioting....take some hostages and make some videos with the titanic sinking or something. that way Cameron will know we mean buisness!!!

In other news: The Asheville Hoovers are embarking on a journey to Orlando this weekend.  We will be documenting this trip into the utter depths of Florida..and all things worthy of note and photoing will be photoed!

(Editorial Note: Xanga didnt publish this....As of 3/6/07 we will be back in the greatest state in the land I.E. the N.C.)

Hands that ruined the world

I am in protest of Myspace.  I realize that it means not having any "friends" but not having one does make it more difficult to be stalked....and I get stalked alot.  

My wife and I seem to swap odd things we inadvertently find on the Internet.  I found the "allergy free" (created in a lab as part of a plan to take over the world) kittens, and well....she delivered her goods in this:

http://www.pregnancystore.com/zaky.htm

Several Issues here:

(1) The cost of the Zaky does not outweigh (inflation is taken into consideration) the therapy bills that will come when your child has reoccurring nightmares of being groped by grover. 

(2) If you put your hands in some of the positions that they are photoed, in 48 states it is either called molestation or getting to second base. In the other two states (Utah and Mississippi no doubt) it doesn't matter.

(3) Michael Jackson owns 50% of the company...need I say more

Whtat Cant google do? (help me spell)

So.....much goes on

Since I last posted here....much as usuall has occured.  I managed to smash my finger...which I mean I did a good job doing......not quite like littles nubby fiasco...but enough to take my fingernail off..and bleed alot.  To appease my wife...and get some satisfaction out of paying insurance premiums...I went and had the doctor look at it....where the highlight of the trip was reading the doctors "how to" poster  on what to do if someone "degloves" a hand.  I mean...I figured that only the most intellegent people became doctors.  It pains me to know (and possibly you too) that most of them have the equivalent of post-it notes on the wall outlining how to fix....well you.  I got to wear a lead loin cloth when they x-rayed my finger....and to be honest I havent felt so vulnerable and safe at the same time.  I mean lead draws....nothing is getting thru them......and no you cant take them home. The urgent care fix to all painful injuries is (1) lidocane and (2) batman bandaids....both of which mind you you can purchase at the walmarts.

In preparation for this summers breakout session....im at the UNCA library with Jessica.....she fussed at me because while on the phone talking with a friend of both of ours...I kept referring to her as my "wife"...which she is...but she wants me to use her name......Ive thought about calling her "my partner"...but that has other connotations...which leads me to Leanardo.  He was indeed a man of flames....choosing to dress in tight blue tights.....while all the rest of the world wore flowing garmets much like the ones worn during the easter padgets seen around the south this time of year.  Ive thought about wearing them during the breakout session.....Ive worn them before...

Just incase your hurting for fame or money...write a book solving the da vinci code....I encourage something in crayon....and pictures of Jesus and Mary Magdalene going to the prom...that would be a change.. If you were to shake the foundations of Christianity....you need something more than a poorly written book...or secret documents some smelly french guy with an OUTRAGEOUS MOOSTACHE made when he was at home because he was.....well smelly and was mad at the nuns at his catholic school.
