I was just talking to my friend Bill last night when he told me about an accident in Youngstown. Then he said Oh, it's someone you know that graduated around when we did. He gave me some other info that just left me shaking me head. Then I checked the obituary section this morning to read this
Needless to say I hate living stuff over again every time I hear about something along these lines.
I remember going to parties at my friend Wally's during high school. She lived with her Mom next door in this old mansion that was divided into a duplex. Once in a while Walter would sneak on over there with her boyfriend at the time and would have just insane times.
Once in a while I would see her or some ex-boyfriends around town but nothing of real substance. What really is making me think is what was her state of mind the last couple of years. One can get totally sucked into this alternative dimension that is Lew-Port even if they have other things going on with their life.
I just hope it was a just a bad luck wrong place wrong time accident. Having experience in what goes on behind closed doors and the warped perspective people have that are natives down here my mind is just racing. I can let myself get really sad if I let my imagination run wild.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the Doyle family.

PARITY!!!Category: money
Although the Canadian Dollar "the loonie" is not quite at par or equal to the U.S. Dollar it is within striking distance. The last quote was at 98.6 cents US. So it isn't equal as of yet, but if you are going over to Canada anytime soon you are going to be getting less Canadian money than American when you to engage in the exchange transaction. The 5% juice or profit margin that the banks, casinos, traders use to make money their profit will put you "underwater."
So yea, "Helicopter Ben" may have cut rates to save the housing market but in the end he's going to do more damage then good in cutting rates today.
What is going to happen is the people with money are not going to park in the U.S. to get substandard returns with lower interest rates while having their principle getting gnawed at by a depreciating currency. They're going to go to Canada or Europe earn a better return on investment and gain with an ever increasing exchange rate on principle.
So now after 30 years of those red state ugly Americans ripping on the "Monopoly Money" guess what that $1 bill is only worth 0.98 cents in Canadian Funds! Not bad for a "Socialist" country, Eh?
and Whoa, when did I get to 200+ entries!?!

Bush's wonderful economic recovery in action!! The dollar has been the worlds currency for at least 50 years, not anymore, euros, yen, and yes canadian dollars are much more secure. Who would want to invest in our Debt based system anyway. The government and the public are both in debt, and we abandoned the gold standard in the 60s.
Thanks for connecting the interest rate and the value of the dollar, I didn't realize the connection.

WormholesCategory: news
The two lead stories on the news today were right out of '94
OJ in trouble with the Law
Hilary pimping her universal health care plan for all.
Looking back I can't believe I haven't posted here for 2 weeks. I've been posting over on my LJ but only due to the fact that it is so easy and compatible with my phone and service.
I have been a total nervous wreck the last week. All I can say is I'm extremely grateful for an Ex-Girlfriend in being sympathetic to my worries.
Saturday night I stopped out to the Mark Freeland Tribute needless to say seeing the fems play was a pretty special experience.
During that time I had a pretty good conversation on why people like myself and my friend D* have just pretty much resigned ourselves to be semi-alone. The kicker of the conversation is how when guys get old they totally miss the point when it comes to sex with their wives. We concluded that as guys age and become "dirty old men" they still fantasize about that barely legal college co-ed working out somewhere. Then when the come home late they just "poke" their wives into action still lost in the head with the vision of that 22 year old blonde wearing some skimpy ambercrombie outfit. Obviously, no foreplay is initiated as the guy is just using his wife in masturbation instead of either of his hands. All being a byproduct of nature and fueled even more by the "porn" culture of the U.S. Mind you this is just a theory...
On another note through this conversation she basically told me that the whole "women still wanting more" after is not necessarily true if the guys works in a descent amount of foreplay and "knocks it out" in a respectable manner. Women will zonk out after a good lay just like guys do if the right amount of effort is honestly undertaken.
Again these aren't my opinions just a generalized pharaphrased conversation over a beverage or two in a really creative environment. Since I obviously cannot speak from a woman's perspective.

1- that's depressing
and 2- "I can go for eight hours, baby" is, contrary to what many men believe, not the ultimate turn-on

CalifornicationCategory: tv
Not the Red Hot Chili Pepper album, but the show on Showtime with David Duchovny.
Fuck, I just love watching it. It just is a overload of my fantasies about living the Posh life in California. I feel more enthralled just watching the last two episodes than hitting a small trifecta from Del Mar.
The episode tonight about the fired office assistant being a suicide girl and then revealing that secret to get her job back was just INSANE!
HBO when there were on top had The Sopranos and Six Feet Under, now Showtime is on fire with Weeds and Californication.
All I can say is good job Viacom, in bridging the gap between good intelligent subject matter and softcore!!!

That really is a great show (yeah I like weeds before it) but I wonder how much I would like it with out all the hot naked chicks. I find it odd that the girl who is the hottest so far and has the wildest sex turns out to be his ex's new mans daughter. I was kinda sleepy when those pictures came up last night so I didn't get that she was a suicide girl but that spanking scene was awesome and reminds me of a great movie called Secretary.

I'm sorry to read it, Vincent.
