Could somebody please tell me what the 'Kottenmouth Kings' have to do with TSOL?! I just found out that these lyrics are in a 'kottonmouth kings' song called 'peace not greed':
"Abolish government means nothing to me,
Forget about god, he's not here to see,
We live by a system, a perfect mold,
People perfect people who are poor and old,
Lies were spent on a sad defense,
They said we're lookin for a method in this world,
Presidents are named,
Presidents are labeled highest man on the government table,
America, land of the free,
Free to the power of the people in uniform"
Recognize em? Oh, and these lyrics are later in the song:
"You're caught up in the headlights of my V-Dub bus,
TSOL and the Kings about to even things up"
I'm so confused. If anybody has an explanation for this strange, strange happening, email me.

I can't help letting the paranoid side of me think about things from time to time. You know those stupid commercials about 'being aware of your kids'? The ones that say "you invaded my privacy. i hated my life. i hated you.... thank you". I hate those, they actually got to my mom and she has been wanting to know every little detail of what i am doing during the week... I dont even know that! I can't help thinking that those type of commercials are just there to keep crime down and save some money on the police. If all the kids were kept at home, there would be less crime outside caused by kids, obviously. Most kids wouldn't commit crimes, but that doesn't matter. As long as SOME of them have the POTENTIAL to, it's best to try and keep all of them at home. Who cares if it weakens family relationships? Who cares if it stops people from living or doing what they want? As long as it saves the police system some cash. It seems like just about anything has some sort of economic interest behind it. Such as the 'buckle-up laws', I don't have anything against them, but I don't think they are there for our protection as much as another way to fine people and make some more cash. A good example of hidden economic interests is when somebody robs a bank and the police are called. Almost always, the cost of the police is higher than the money the robber took from the bank. The robber drives fast, the police drive faster, the robber drives faster; a high speed chase ensues. Civilian cars, police cars and things like street signs, these are often demolished in the process of the chase, adding to the overall cost for the tax payers. Oh, did I mention the extreme danger for any average person who happens to be around? There have been children killed in these chases that happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. Why is all this happeneing if it doesn't have to? Because if the police didn't come to the 'rescue', the banking buisness would be in jepordy, and that is something that can NOT happen in a capitalist society such as this, regardless of the chaos, money, and danger involved. - God Bless America

Around the late 1800s, farmers had to take a gamble to try and get by. The gamble was getting loans from banks for the farming supplies they would need for the year hoping that their crops would do good enough to repay the banks, farmers were always poor and didn't have enough cash to get the supplies straight up. It was their only choice and it was damn hard to repay those banks. The time being post-Civil war, there was a lot of expansion industry wise, which lead to expansion population wise, which lead to expansion money wise (pennywise). This made the worth of the dollar grow constantly. On top of the bank charging interest, there was the natural interest (if you could call it that) of having to pay the bank even more than they borrowed, since the dollar was worth so much more.

Atmosphere came to my town and I would have gone to it if I wasn't at warped tour that night. Well, the show was mentioned in the newspaper when I got back home. Apparently at the show, a girl was raped and murdered by a worker there. The killer hid her body in a room at the Sunshine Theater and pushed a vending machine in front of the door. The police didn't find her body until days later. It's weird that that happened at a place I attend shows often, and at a show that I almost went to. You can read about it (although it's a half-assed report) here: http://krqe.com/crime/expanded1.asp?RECORD_KEY%5BBigLocal%5D=ID&ID%5BBigLocal%5D=980

AHH, I havn't posted in forever. Well, I was at warped tour for awhile, and aparently I'm lazier now. OK, I'm pretty tired right now and I just woke up. I plan on posting later tonight, but I just wanted to at least get SOMETHING posted just in case. Right now I don't have anything important to say except for that I acquired this mysterious perfect rectangle sunburn on my back. That was kinda weird.

OK all the sins are over. Now it's time for me to go on about really deep theories and such. Such as this: Which came first, the chicken or the egg? ha, jk. But if you really want to know the answer, I can tell you. The gdamn egg of course. Where else would a chicken come from? It's obvious it came from an egg, hence the egg was first. Now before you go off and whine about how there had to be a chicken to lay this egg, remember that thing they taught you in school called evolution? (By the way, any hardcore conservitive christians out there should stop reading at this point). No chicken laid this egg, but the last animal of the chicken's ancestors did. The animal had DNA just a tiny little bit off from being considered a chicken, but its baby was. There you have it. But for serious, I will try to explain some theories I have soon. Go in peace.

LAST SIN!!!!
PRIDE
1. What one thing have you done that you're most proud of? Today Kevin through a pea pod seed thing at me and I caught it in between my fingers without even looking. I swear.
2. What one thing have you done that your parents are most proud of? Probably that thing I just told you about.
3. What thing would you like to accomplish in your life? I think I peaked at that pea pod thing, but if I were to do something else, maybe I'd finish reading the 'people's history of the united states'. Damn, I've been reading that for like a year.
4. Do you get annoyed by coming in second place? Socially, I do. Aside from that, I'm to lazy to enter anything like sports.
5. Have you ever entered a contest of skill, knowing you were of much higher skill than all the other competitors? Only once when I entered a being cool contest.
6. Have you ever cheated on something to get a higher score? Of course. This is America! Get with the program.
7. What did you do today that you're proud of? Damn it. How many times must I explain the pea pod story?

GREED
1. How many credit cards do you own? None, the bank told me that I need money first.
2. What's your guilty pleasure store? um... the Domanatrix Hut... wait, what kind of guilty pleasure are we talking about?
3. If you had one million dollars, what would you do with it? Lobby for George Bush to wear a clown nose at his next speech.
4. Would you rather be rich, or famous? you mean more famous that I already am? being the former drummer of 'Stereotypes', I usually have to wear shades and a wig just to go in public and keep the public off my back.
5. Would you accept a boring job if it meant you would make megabucks? Of course, I'm already accepting boring jobs to make the microbucks!
6. Have you ever stolen anything? yes, a tiny seashel (who buys seashells, really)
7. How many MP3s are on your hard drive? Almost 6,000. Although, I don't see how that has to do with greed, it's not like I'm hoarding them all to myself or anything (but that DOES give me an idea..)

ENVY
1. What item (or person) of your friends' would you most want to have for your own? It's too hard to say which 'person' of my friends i would like to have. Choosing a slave takes time you know.
2. Who would you want to go on "Trading Spaces" with? What, is that like a TV show?
3. If you could be anyone else in the world, who would you be? The Robot.
4. Have you ever been cheated on? Probably. I do know that I was 'with' this girl (she even said we were 'together'), though it wasn't "official", but she was also dating another guy at the same time. So, probably.
5. Have you ever wished you had a physical feature different from your own? Yeah, somtimes I wish I had a gadjet copter that came out of my head.
6. What inborn trait do you see in others that you wish you had for yourself? To see into the future when disasters are going to happen, like Fertility Hollis or some shit.
7. Do you wish you'd come up with this survey? Is that the best question you could think of? Not now I don't!

You know, me just sitting looking at a small child or a cat or something, and it starts to look like a chicken leg or steak or something.
