pet peeve

Oh wow.. I should really be more consistant with blogs shouldn't I??


Pet peeve...
Recent Sympatico Video delcared "Tiger Woods Yacht Sets Sail"

.....

There are no sails on motor boats. Why do people continue to say a motor boat is setting sail??
I mean I suppose I understand historically the reason to say that. But come on, there are no sails. As a sailer, that for some reason annoys me. Because motor boats suck.

GQ

After typing out what I considered a very inspired question and comment letter on your 'general question form' I was crushed by the current maintenance and my message deleted.
I'm going to reply summarized by emailing you directly.
I was interested in knowing if in the future GQ magazine will be stretching is content and contests to Canada, or perhaps you could focus on my city of Toronto.
I truly enjoy reading all material within the GQ magazine I receive monthly, but am always saddened when ever contests come up and find out that like most magazines the offer is limited to the United States. More recently the Taylor Lautner Aramoni Exchange offer.
I've heard that GQ had branches in the UK and even South Korea. I can only hope that a Canadian version is released in the future, though this seems unlikely as I know of the history of magazine in Canada.
As I do enjoy reading GQ many things apply to American's alone. This I fully understand, GQ's targeted audience is the whole of the United States. It's just sad thinking that Toronto really isn't far and you think with free trade agreements like NAFTA magazines could open options for other North American residences. Once again I do understand the audience is American, and GQ is certainly not the only, nor the first magazine I have wondered this question about.
Bulk of the articles are still applicable: clothing, style, sex, health, fitness, dinning, and more are and can be used world wide. Other articles that have sent me on a mad hunt for fresh cappuccino beans so I might try making my own brew have led me to an annoyance to today's coffee world and a search for small non-corporate cafes that might sell a cappuccino as worthy as those listed in the November Issue of GQ (which were all U.S. locations).
I'm am guessing international issues of GQ focus on those locations where they are released. Anyway of attaining these other issues? Particularly South Korea.
Thanks for the good reads!

Roomates..

Last night I mentioned to my roommate that another house member should remove a pot of water and chicken from the stove and she replied with "why is it bugging you?".
Though I did deny it's annoyance of seeing this vat of partially repeated, heated and cooled chicken in water fuming god only knows what type of pestilence it has been a weak. I withheld the temptation of reminding her that she grumbled and complained to me only two days after it's appearance.
I think a week is fair time to mention something my dear roommate. I can't even pretend to say sorry if its mentioning bothered you.

I can only hope roommate who left the chicken, let's call her shorts, doesn't decide to come home and eat or drink anything in that pot. Even if shorts boils the water high and long there is no doubt in my mind she'll come down with some sickness.

Please shorts lol do not eat anything in that pot. I'm tossing it with the garbage for sure tonight.


*I'll try and remember to post a picture later ^^

Pertaining Circumstances

"Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin."

Carpe Diem, seize the day. So we've heard countless times during our once only lifetime. Is it worth is though? Consider that you do live once, there isn't anyone there to deny it. You've not going to enter a cheat code into life that'll give you endless chances. Not with today's reality anyways. Give the sciences behind Dollhouse and other such shows and maybe, just maybe one day we'll have that extra chance. But, who's to say we should take those chances??
I mean you live once, you take that chance once and you fuck it up. Great, you know the end story, but what did you have to lose just to find out? It can't always be worth it.
Surely there must be a way to measure up the risk facture in taking that chance before hand.
Ask a friend, ask a shrink, google it even???!

I'll likely get about 50/50 results in answers. I'm being perfectly honest I googled the question =P

Of course some said yes some said no. There is no good answer for these questions. Seizing the day can most certainly ruin the day. And if you ruin your last day where is the happiness.

Holding onto the past is sad, but it can help distract you from the future.

lol really.. no good answer

blaarg

Blarg. It can be use for anything really. Oh so says Urban Dictionary and I fully intend on trusting every bit of fact on that website.

Well It has certainly been a while since my last thought. Last published one anyway.
A slight computer black out resulting from a falty power cable and laziness resulted in my delay and thus I attempted to use anothers computer. Which decided to freeze near the end of my final thoughts and thus, sadly, that blog was lost in the restart of the computer.

Guy Fawkes Day

Remember remember the fifth of November, The gunpower plot and treason. I see of no reason why the gunpowder treason should ever be forgot.

That's right. I remember how it goes. Of course this is because the small amount of British in me wishes to emerge in the event of Holidays where you get to have a huge fire and light fireworks. But alas.. being in Waterloo where everone is asian, and for some reason thinks the holiday is nothing more then a bit of fiction created by the 2005 film V for Vendetta, no one is willing to celebrate it.
Now normally on the 5th of November the typical way to celebrate would be by having a fire in the backyard and to have fireworks. I know.. this isn't going to happen in Waterloo, but you think we could get together and watch V for Vendetta. That's at least something. Ohh how many times I heard the excuse "Oh I've already seen it before" when I asked people if they'd like to watch it.
I get it.. you've seen it. Guess what? So have I.. like 5 times... Can people only watch a movie once?? I mean I understand if you saw it within the last few weeks, though it's never stopped me from watching a movie 4 times in 3 days lol.
Needless to say... Here I am. Not doing anything, because apparently more than one friend sleeps at 10. Waaay early!!
And the other... have seen it in the last 4 years.. A-durr LOL

What can I do? Another boring night in Waterloo.

Oh yay! My one roommate will watch now!

Off I go ^^


On a side note....

haha what more could one ask for.

But it's kind of terrible.. it really shouldn't be funny...

Reaching for the stars

“Loving someone that doesn't love you is like reaching for a star. You know you'll never reach it, but you just got to keep trying.”
