Calvinism

C - It's a lot more fun to blame the system than try to fix things.

C- I've decided to stop caring about things. If you care, you just get disappointed all the time. If you DON'T care, nothing matters so you're never upset. From now on, my rallying cry is "So What?!"
H- That's a tough cry to rally around.
C- So What?!


C- I'm a simple man Hobbes.
H- YOU?? Yesterday you wanted a nuclear powered car that could turn into a jet with laser-guided heat-seeking missiles!
C- I'm a simple man with complex tastes

H- I like my smock.
C- Good...OK I'll divide up the clay, here's yours.
H- You can tell the quality of the artist by the quality of his smock.
C- Uh huh.. you have to work this stuff a bit to get it soft.
H- Actually I just like to say smock.
C- See, just knead it like so, and then it can be modelled.
H- Smock, smock, smock, smock, smock, smock!
C- WHAT ON EARTH IS WRONG WITH YOU?!

C- I'm not getting out of bed until it's as warm out there as it is in here.

C- YAAH! DEATH TO OATMEAL!

Inside jokes

"Spring??? Where the deuce did that come from? And what's all this rubbish I keep hearing about it being 2006???"

"So I would work in small, dark room, surrounded by stone walls and sadness; the only people I would ever work with would be people at the hardest times of their lives and all for no pay... but I get to wear a suit right?"

"I will refrain from comment as I tend to have intense personality conflicts with Femenist professors"

"Man, this sliced bread is the best stuff since....uhhh....."

Cheers,

The pot is calling the kettle black....

While reading through a list of "traditional Welsh recipies" I found this comment in a recipe for rarebit: "NOTE: There is an English abomination of this recipe in which beer is used. If you must use beer, keep it for washing your hair!" While jokes about English cooking are absurdly easy to make; the WELSH are the last people on earth to be giving culinary advice.

Here are some *scruptious* recipies for you to think about (link here).
Cawl Haslet - pigs liver, potatoes and a pound of onions.
Brithyll a cig moch - Baked trout and bacon

and many, many more.

Song Lyrics

se bella giu satore
je notre so cafore
je notre si cavore
je la tu la ti la twah

la spinash o la bouchon
cigaretto portobello
si rakish spaghaletto
ti la tu la ti la twah

senora pilasina
voulez-vous le taximeter?
le zionta su la seata
tu la tu la tu la wa

sa montia si n’amora
la sontia so gravora
la zontcha con sora
je la possa ti la twah

je notre so lamina
je notre so cosine
je le se tro savita
je la tossa vi la twah

se motra so la sonta
chi vossa l’otra volta
li zoscha si catonta
tra la la la la la la



"This song describes my life in every way i know. No one knows the tru me...i feel lost in my own body" (insert cheesy wilted MSN rose)

Want to tell yourself that you eat healthy without actually doing anything? Compare your eating habits to some of these treats.



Biddy's Favourite - this is the sub that I get at my regular pub (Biddy Mulligans on Bank Street). This little submarine sandwich is made of ham, bacon, beef and covered with cheese; of course it comes with a heaping pile of french fries just in case there wasn't enough grease.

3 Cheese burger - Another heart stopping delicacy from Biddy Mulligans; the burger itself is pretty average except for the fact that last time I got this

Baseball's Best Burger - This one I haven't tried yet; it makes a steak look like diet food. It's a bacon cheeseburger but instead of that bun which is FAR too healthy, the whole thing is served between a sliced Krispy Kreme glazed donut.

PS. I've got an invitation to the Governor General's Awards in Visual and Media Arts at the National Gallery on the 23rd; I have class that night but if anyone wants to RSVP by the 17th then you're more than welcome to it.

Letter

I just spilled a few drops of port on the letter I'm working on; I'm not sure if I'm more distraught by the fact that I'll have to re-write that whole letter or by the fact that I lost a few drops of port.

Quotes from "Cabaret"

I doubt many of you have seen the movie "Cabaret", apparently watching musical theatre about wermacht Germany's Cabarets isn't considered the "cool" thing anymore. The movie has it's unpleasant bits, but it still is the source of some decent quotes:


Brian- "Aren't you ever gonna stop deluding yourself, hmm? Handling Max? Behaving like some ludicrous little underage femme fatale? You're... you're about as fatale as an afterdinner mint!"

Sally: Well, do you sleep with girls or don't you?
Brian: Sally! You don't ask questions like that!
Sally: I do.

Brian: Sally is rather knowledgeable in these areas.
Fritz: You do what Sally says, you end up I think in prison.

Sally: Mayr tells Kost's fortune every morning, and it's always the same: "You will meet a strange man." Which under the circumstances is a pretty safe bet.

Fritz: Do you know what she has done to me? It's terrible! She has turned me into an honest man.


Cheers,

Lent

Well it's Ash Wednesday the start of lent for Christians around the world. Typically christians "Fast" or give up something for Lent, but there are quite a few out there who can't decide on what to give up. So if you're stuck on what to give up for lent, here are some suggestions:

-Christianity
-Hope
-Going to Church
-Kidnapping orphans (or another such thing you cleary don't do anyways)
-Meat (only for vegetarians)
-Sobriety
-Celibacy
-Reality
-Getting out of bed before noon
-and many more good ideas I'm too lazy to think up
