Hello all out there in Internet land, this be my 14th postage!
Sorry about the rather sizeable gap in between posts as of late but ive been a tad on the busy side and it will probably only get worse. I will say though that these posts will come as often as i can and if its not good enough for you well all i have to say is "waffles". Hrmm yes well anyways on to the post.
Whats going on in my life? Well semseters coming to a close, hopefully on a good note especially due to the exams and junk ive been writing lately. Not looking forward to that big old chem exam coming up but hey theres nothing i can do about it (well minus studying and such). So yeah thats that as they say.
A friend of mine just sent me probably one of the most unexpected things ive seen online in a good while, be sure to check it out and have sound cause its no fun without http://www.badgerbadgerbadger.com/

Hmm yes, well ive been doing a fair chunk of reading latley; mostly for fun now that i dont have to touch that damn self help book with a ten foot pole (damn you Zig Ziglar and you ways to reach sucess, DAMN YOOOUUU...) I must reccomend to anyone who enjoys a good laugh (and is ok with a few pokes at the church) the book "Small Gods" by Terry Pratchett, if you can find it, read it cause its really quite good.
The other thing that ive been doing latley, cant rember if ive mentioned it or not but ive been attempting to find this Def Leppard book full of all the songs from their second and third albums. Its a really good book and really rare appearantly, stupid ebay though; me and my lack of attention paying missed the fact that the auction ended in like 10min so i missed out on buying it. Ah well as mad as i am im sure ill find it somewhere.
Best song ive ever heard in a while though its Switch 625 by Def Leppard, if you like 80's rock i wholeheartedly reccomend getting it. This of course brings me to my current gripe, the quality of todays music. now you compare say todays punk rock to what was being played back in the day and the actual mechanics and technique are light years apart. All most groups nowadays do is just drop tune to D and play some power cords, those who dont know much about guitars ill tell you that doing that is nothing special, no real skill to it and its not all that intersting. Now im not saying that the 80's had the best musicians ever or something or that all of todays stuff stinks but older music did have much deeper guitar riffs to it, just look at some of the stuff by Van Halen and you'll know what i mean (granted Eddie was a genious but still). Yeah so dissapointed i are about music today, the world really needs some good writers of music again.
The current situation with the whole beef thing really gets my goat. Mostly due to the fact that America's just trying to pass the buck on us so that their own people dont look to their faulty protection system that allowed the infected cow to even get to slaughter, whereas in canada the cow was caught beforehand and no meat was ever tainted. And then youve got the great job that martins doing, not much better than waht chretien did but thats the point; its not like either of them did or has done a huge deal to try to fix this rather large issue but of course they wont, because it doesnt affect the mighty land of Ontario; stupid ottawa.
Well thats enough talk about politics and junk, now on to wahts going on in the liff of El Yurko. What really, really sucks is when you go through a load of crap in your life that you would really want to forget. Eventually you move on in life and after a few years you start to foget about it all, and life is good. But then along comes some crap that just happily digs up all those old thoughts and feelings that were happily buried away in parts of the mind that were better left alone. So now after going though a couple of years of not worrying about this particular crap, not dealing with it ect. its back in full force in my stupid old mind and i havent even dealt with this "thing" in a hell of along while. What really bugs me is that there isnt really any reason at all for me to care about whats happend dealing with this "thing" but my good old brain thinks that i should so i start caring again, getting pissed about stuff that i really shouldnt, and generally caring about what i shouldnt. This really angers me because it wasnt really a happy time, and its something that when looking back on, i really really could have done without. So yeah, thats basically the downside of life right now, mostly because of the fact that im caring/getting jealous over crap that isnt there, all in my mind or stuff that after this long i should even give a damn about.
Hmm well tahts basically it, that and ive repeated myself a few times i think so thats all for today. Ill probably add another section to the story tomorrow seeing as how ive got to go do some homework so till next time.
The Amazing Boring Yurko
