man, fuck george lucas. can the fucker do anything right?

"This past weekend, the Moscone Center in San Francisco kicked off the summer convention season with a celebration of comics, film and pop culture. Several movie studios were present, offering glimpses into upcoming summer releases expected to wow audiences in 2004.
Steve Sansweet, Head of Fan Relations for Lucasfilm, focused instead on the fall of 2004 and May 2005, with a presentation that covered the DVD release of the Star Wars trilogy and the much anticipated theatrical release of Episode III. Sansweet screened several of the Making Episode III web-docs currently being enjoyed by Hyperspace subscribers, and opened the floor to a brief question-and-answer session.

When asked if the forthcoming DVDs would feature the original theatrical release versions of the trilogy or the Special Editions, Sansweet answered that the films contained on the discs would be the incarnations of the films "as George Lucas sees them today." He reminded people of the 1995 video release of the trilogy that hailed itself as the last time the original theatrical cuts would ever be available. "They weren't kidding," Sansweet noted. "

why do i have such a hard time letting go of the past? i can't wait to leave this fucking city.

"no man can learn the value of his life without pain.
yet, no man deserves a life's worth in pain.
and i have a lifetime left to learn.

am i not a better man?

a man who has grown sound and strong,
a man who has learned from his misery.

am i not a better man?

a clever man who taught his flesh the way of steel.
this lasting man of resolve and will.

am i not a better man?

or just a bitter man
that rots with memories and only grows cold.

indeed i have grown cold."

I bet when the neanderthal kids would make a snowman, someone would always end up saying, "Don't forget the thick, heavy brows." Then they would all get embarrassed because they remembered they had the big hunky brows too, and they'd get mad and eat the snowman.

The people in the village were real poor, so none of the children had any toys. But this one little boy had gotten an old enema bag and filled it with rocks, and he would go around and whap the other children across the face with it. Man, I think my heart almost broke. Later the boy came up and offered to give me the toy. This was too much! I reached out my hand, but then he ran away. I chased him down and took the enema bag. He cried a little, but that's the way of these people.

We tend to scoff at the beliefs of the ancients. But we can't scoff at them personally, to their faces, and this is what annoys me.

He was a cowboy, mister, and he loved the land. He loved it so much he made a woman out of dirt and married her. But when he kissed her, she disintegrated. Later, at the funeral, when the preacher said, "Dust to dust," some people laughed, and the cowboy shot them. At his hanging, he told the others, "I'll be waiting for you in heaven--with a gun."

If you're in a war, instead of throwing a hand grenade at the enemy, throw one of those small pumpkins. Maybe it'll make everyone think how stupid war is, and while they are thinking, you can throw a real grenade at them.

I guess I kinda lost control, because in the middle of the play I ran up and lit the evil puppet villain on fire. No, I didn't. Just kidding. I just said that to help illustrate one of the human emotions, which is freaking out. Another emotion is greed, as when you kill someone for money, or something like that. Another emotion is generosity, as when you pay someone double what he paid for his stupid puppet.

I wouldn't be surprised if someday some fishermen caught a big shark and cut it open, and there inside was a whole person. Then they cut the person open, and in him is a little baby shark. And in the baby shark there isn't a person, because it would be too small. But there's a little doll or something, like a Johnny Combat little toy guy---something like that.

Subject:yet another reason why christians are stupid fucktards.
Security:Public

TYLER, Texas (April 3) - A jury on Saturday began deliberating whether a homemaker was insane when she used rocks to bludgeon two of her sons to death and severely injure a third after receiving what she claimed were orders from God.

Deanna Laney, sitting several feet away from a poster-sized portrait of her three children, wept uncontrollably as prosecutors portrayed the killings last Mother's Day weekend as deceptively planned and coldly executed.

"It was graphic, it was horrific and it was brutal," prosecutor Matt Bingham told the jury during closing arguments earlier Saturday.

Laney, 39, has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity to murder in the deaths of 8-year-old Joshua and 6-year-old Luke, and serious injury to a child for the beating of Aaron, now 2.

Bingham pounded his fist in his hand as he recounted Joshua's killing: "He got strike after strike after strike on his head to the point that his brains were coming out of his head like liquid."

Defense attorney Tonda Curry began her argument by asking the jury why a deeply religious woman known as a loving, devoted mother who homeschooled her children would kill two of her children and maim another without so much as a tear.

"There was no crying," Curry said. "She was insane. There is no other answer."

She recalled a tape of Laney calling 911 after midnight on May 10, calmly reporting the murders and directing authorities to her home.

"Do you remember that voice?" Curry asked the jurors, who sat solemn faced, some appearing pensive. "Have you ever heard a voice like that, so empty of emotion?"


About three hours into deliberations, the jury asked Judge Cynthia Kent for the 911 tape, the transcript of that call and the testimony of Laney's husband, Keith. The judge agreed to give jurors only the tape, saying the transcript had not been admitted as evidence and that jurors could review Keith Laney's testimony only if they cite a specific disagreement over it.

Curry stressed that five psychiatric experts, including one hired by the judge and two by the prosecution, concluded that a severe mental illness caused psychotic delusions and made Laney incapable of knowing right from wrong during the killings - the standard in Texas for insanity.

"We have five consistent medical opinions that say she's insane and none to the contrary," Curry said.

If Laney is found innocent by reason of insanity, she would be committed to a hospital for treatment. Medical evaluations would dictate when she would be released.

If convicted of capital murder, she would be sentenced to life in prison, with the possibility of parole in 40 years. If convicted of serious injury to a child, a first-degree felony, the sentence could range from five years to 99 years or life.

Laney, who home-schooled her children in the tiny town of New Chapel Hill, 100 miles southeast of Dallas, was convinced she was divinely chosen by God to kill her children last Mother's Day weekend, psychiatrists testified.

Subject:still reeling.
Security:Public

i'm still recovering from this weekend. my god, converge is the most amazing band ever. the whole trip was so amazing, but nothing will compare to that forty five minutes or so where i screamed out all the things that have been hurting me this last year. it wasn't a show, it wasn't a band, it was a religious experience. yeah, maybe i am a bit obsessed, but i'm sure everyone here has that one thing that made them so emotional that they completely broke down and lost their minds for a few minutes, and that is what that band is for me.

and one more thing. fuck you you fucking lying bitch. i hope you fucking burn for what you've done. as of now, you are officially erased from me.

"Were it all had meaning, were we fell in love for the first time
It erupts in nights like this, tangled in the simplicity of...
Some far off distant evening with hearts filled to the brim
with good intentions and the sweetest of tragedy
I hope you hear me coming, I hope you turn your head
Arms spread wide like Jesus, without the heart
or cowardice, or mouthful of easy answers
Headlong we pace into the killing fields
Born of fevers and the brooding night sweats
and the war about to be waged
Stop crying, just give me the keys
I hope you hear me coming, I hope you turn your head
Stop crying, just give me the fucking keys
Headlong into the killing fields
These days I am becoming bulletproof
The bells are ringing, it's the end of the line
I'm becoming your fears
I'm becoming every broken heart
I hope you hear me coming, I hope you turn your head"

justin made an attempt at playing matchmaker for me last night. that kid knows me WAY too well. she is a card, and i hope to be seeing a lot more of her soon.

i never have a goddamn thing to say on here. i just talk about metal, whine about girls, and proclaim my nerdiness whenever i start typing on here. god i suck.

oh yeah. i got a 3.0 this semester. thats a first for me in college. dont make fun of me for being a dumbass. im very proud of myself.

new years this year was a blast. that was the drunkest i have ever been. sorry for anyone i offended and thank you meggan and sarah for putting up with me on the ride home.

highlights of year:

the best/worst relationship i have ever been in. i learned a lot from you jen. although we don't talk much anymore, i wish we did. thank you.

march trip to omaha for songs: ohia. thank you lyndsey for going with and being a great friend.
amd thanks to jason molina for being a huge inpiration on me and drinking a beer with me, and making me feel like a friend for a couple of hours.

broke my foot drunken dancing and didnt have to work for 9 months or so.

became amazing friends with justin sludgekowski. i love him so much. and i love that fact that i converted him to the gloriousness of metal. yes folks, it was all my doing.

discovered the joys of marijuana. and stoner metal.

saw radiohead

went to illinois for a couple weeks, realized that the friends i had there are amazing because i can be gone for three years and come back and its like i never even left.

had my first "friends with benefits." i still dont know how i feel about this.

met the love of my life. unfortunately her heart is not all there when it comes to me, but i have grown incredibly patient with people in this last year. this chapter in my life will not be closed for some time. i have a feeling you and i will make history soon my dear, whether you like it or not.

got sweet new tattoos

got fat.

anyways, im sure there was more badass things that happened to me, but i dont feel like thinking very hard about it right now.

top 5 albums of 2003:
radiohead-hail to the thief
examination of the...-the whitest of elephants
songs: ohia-the magnolia electric co.
(smog)-supper
mastodon-remission ( i think this came out in 02 but whatever, i bought it this year.)
