Se Florindo è fedele...
Category: music
I am appointing this opera as my signature tune this weekend.



Yeah, those ruins are not the point (Why play Scarlatti/Bartoli over some monastery in ruins?! Beats me.) Someday, I want to enroll in voice training and sing this opera.

Hmm...I don't know. The subject matter of the song is definitely not very saintly. And those ruins are apparently an old Spanish monastery...
metalpeter - 11/05/11 14:16
The Ruins make perfect Sense with out knowing what the song is about... Oprea is old European and Classic like these buildings... Looks like some kind of church or building of a church like maybe a town run by the church?

Airline fares
Category: whine
I hate it when I have just booked a ticket and find that I could have got it for $20-$50 less on a competing airline. In this case, the lesson learned is that Delta has cheaper fares coming back from NYC compared with JetBlue. I have seen this so many times. JetBlue is not exactly the cheapest as everyone believes.

I don't like flying and vastly prefer taking Amtrak. But whenever I am headed back home, anxiety trumps dislike and I usually fly. Going to the city, I always take the train.

I just hate all these price differences and deals in a way. They manipulate your thoughts so efficiently without you even realizing it.

Whiny whine.

What if you...
Category: music
{set to the tune of Joshua's Radin's song}
opened a biscuit packet

What if you
found that each was broken

I wonder if you'd try
counting the pieces
it's come to this
so annoying
each one at the exact same place

What if I.. i.e.i,e.I
had bought a better packet!
I wouldn't have had to endure
this ridiculous breakage

Held together by the packet
But when your hand reaches the biscuit
there's nothing you can do
but watch irked as it breaks apart.

I have never heard of them... I am not too much into the alternative scene. Songs are too similar and too wordy for me! :)

metalpeter - 11/04/11 17:36
Isn't there a 30 Seconds to Mars song with a sped up version of this song? Think it is called What if I?

Second of all with the biscuit wouldn't them being broken only matter if one where to put stuff on them? There isn't anything I could really do whom's to say I didn't bang them up on the way home? Now if I had same jam just dip the broken piece in......

I hear they are very good.
Category: eating out
Me at 7:00 PM: Rushing out of Walgreens with the speculoos.
Buffalo Police on Walgreens duty pointing at Biscoffs: Man, I hear they are very good. Everyone is getting one today. I need to try those...

Me at 7:15 PM: Rushing back into Walgreens because I forgot to get the shortbread I wanted.
Buffalo Police on Walgreens duty pointing at someone else's frozen pizza: Man, I hear they are very good. I need to get that!

Me at 8:00 PM: Back to walgreens for the chocolate.
Buffalo Police on Walgreens duty pointing at twizzlers in someone's checkout pile: Man, it's been ages since I had that! I hear they are sweeter now. I need to try that!

Conversation starter? Genuine interest? Or just massive hunger?

Anyway. Behold, a dinner of depravity.

The votes are in. I like the speculoos the best out of the lot.

I imagine HR is bored and just trying to make small talk to pass time.

The People at Walgreen's must think "Who is this Loon who keeps coming back in"...... Seriously though that is more common then one thinks back in the old days of Wilson farms some times you would see people come back in a couple hours later.....
