last nights dream

Thursday, November 23rd, 2006

Walking around the New England campus i came upon a group of Mexican kids playing baseball.  The one batting stepped away from his make shift plate and moved toward me.  He seemed upset.  He asked, are you a catholic, because i hate Catholics.  My usual reply would have been to say no I’m Jewish but with this crowd that comment didnt seem appropriate.  I look at them and then said i’m a Taoist.  I continued on my way until i got back to the school.  My friends were still eating and it took a while to find my way back to the building.  a group of people were sitting around the lobby of the building.  I told of my recent encounter and a woman across the room smiled at me.
I felt encouraged as if i had made the right choice.  I continued to elaborate and exaggerate my story and my zeal.  The crowd turned for me, they started to clap and cheer as i walked off.

Mental Illness

I dont believe in mental illness.  I think that it is something the mental health professionals have created.

The story of the

Wednesday, November 15th, 2006

The french man came back from the bathroom his seat occupied by the fucking prick.  He at this point didnt know the man who had taken his seat was a fucking prick, that realization was pointed out by me after the french man went for an unoccupied seat and the fucking prick said hey we are using that…
So i of course pointed out, that guy is a fucking prick.

So i’m staying at mugurs on the futon and mugur is on the floor trying to set up a bed for himself, when talk of the night lands on the fucking prick.  Right then mugurs brother who at the time was taking up mugurs entire queen bed quitely shouts from the other room, can you guys keep it down.  Mugur Yells NO.  As he looks to me his laughing comrade, he says right then i felt really offended.
So of course i point out for the next five min inbetween laughs that this guy is a fucking prick.

Then the next day i wake up after giving alex and his girlfriend the futon to find this fucking prick in the hallway between the tv and the futon doing yoga.  So i sit down and turn on the tv, and the fucking prick is like hey,,,,, what the hell.  He gets all upset then finds a corner for his exercise.
so of course i point out that that guys is a fucking prick.

The moral of the story is dont be a fucking prick.  Think things through, dont claim ownership of common ground, and show dick some respect.

The Brooklyn Hypocrite

Sunday, November 12th, 2006

My new york interpretations of the word Hypocrite followed by the Merriam-webster definition

I was in New York this past week and i’m not really sure what the deal is there every third person is carrying a movie camera.  Maybe they have a lot of great “idea”s, or maybe they all want to make a movie that means something.  Or maybe they want someone to see them make the movie…to see life from their point of view.  Any way you look at they are all assholes
1 : a person who puts on a false appearance of virtue or religion

PS.  Check out the picture shows on my page that i put together while in NEW YORK CITY

Alex pissed me off as he told this this girl about his religious organization and how it is so great, trying to hook the fish with his bait.
2 : a person who acts in contradiction to his or her stated beliefs or feelings

PS. dont worry i gave alex shit as i yelled at him,”Dont push your beliefs on other people.”
