Yurkos song of the day: Runnin' Down a Dream -
by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
"No one sends the Tick anywhere. Fate is my only master. Destiny signs my checks"
Yeah so why am i putting up a post at 12:18 in the morning after pulling an all-nighter finishing off a formal bio lab? Not sure really, the concept of owing you guys a new post floated around for a bit but then i realised im not one to bullshit on the internet considering its such a bastion of truth and accurate fact and all. Needless to say its moreso the fact that i tire of looking at the last post, but meh what are you going to do? It did have a quality quote which dissapoints me that no one commented on it. Life does press on though so i might as well.
Damn and blast organic chem/english 112; or the one-two sucker punch to my GPA as i like to call them (ok so i just came up with that now but i assure you that ill call it that from now on... of course i will... how will you know if i dont? Huh? punkass? yeah thats what i thought) Granted i have more or less already stated my extreme hatred for the two courses and why that is so i best not get into that again. All i will say is that ive got an essay due in a week (news to me up until today) and after that crap ass midterm i really have to work my sorry butt off to get a good mark in org. Not that you care but then again i dont care that you dont care so it all works out nicely.
Ahh dodgeball, what a blast especially now that we have the kick ass designs on the backs of our oh so ackward purple shirts (its a random selection of colours ok? plus ive heard that is a royal colour or something like that...). If any of you want to see the oh so great design (which i co-designed, esp the usage of the doom logo) here be a fancy little link:
Chubby Chicken of DOOM
yeah so enjoy, although i doubt anyone will understand but meh there is a little slice of the rez life for Yurko. If they ever get around to posting some of the many pictures etc up on the internet as planned ill be sure to make a link so you can observe that which is Henday Hall; Lister. Too bad we have to dismantle the Beeramid, a shame really we almost had the base built; so much promise...
What else, hmm provincial elections coming up. Cannot vote due to the fact that i havent lived here long enough to be a member of this riding and i missed the deadline to get an absentee ballot. Life goes on, its not like provincial elections really matter a great deal in Alberta right now. As long as oil prices stay up the PC will stay in power, thats just the way its going to be. Personally i dont really care either way, hooray voter apathy (oh man what a hypocrite i am, how many times have i raged about voter apathy?).
Ill comment on some comments and then wrap this up because although my brain says yes, my body says no and my lower left leg says cheese and who is going to argue with that? Not I thats for sure, only a foolish man disagrees with his lower left leg. I correct myself Neil it is moreso the creative part of my brain that refuses to put in any input most of the time, not so much the rest of the old thinker. (you disgress eh? if your going to mock my spelling at least try to keep yours up to par eh?) It would appear that we were talking about the exact same thing Jackie, you are thinking of part 2 of Another Brick in the Wall with the "you cant have any pudding until you eat meat" such and so forth. Part 3 is pretty much the general chorus of part 2 but sung (sung? im pretty sure thats wrong but word is all the way over there, to far to check the spelling) entirely by the lead singer of pink floyd whos name has slipped my mind at this point in time. Good guitar licks in part 3 but well nothing can compare to the goodness that is part 2.
Actually Keith the majority of the stuff you mentioned i have seen and played so no i dont restrict myself to just the good old GCN. The smaller PS2 is pretty slick looking, and after seeing screenshots of MGS:3 (its like the old school metal gear 2...drool) i am really tempted to pick one up. San Andreas ill wait for the PC release though, cause it is a great game even on the PS2 but oh how i miss my mouse aim/custom radio stations. Halo 2 is the biggest over-rated piece of crap this side of the spiderman movies. Man the game started off so damn promising too, that urban warfare portion was so slick and fun that a game based soley on the invasion of earth would have been a classic guaranteed. Yet no they had to go and leave earth for...another Halo filled with the same attacks by the flood in the exact same bland repetitive hallways. Oh wait! you get to do it all again but as the covenant this time! So much could have been done with the game, and yes the cutscenes are well done etc but your dropping 60 bucks for a good gameplay experience not a movie. Ah well i am sure you and neil will now reply with a "oh how foolish/wrong/biased you are chris" comment or something to that extent but whatever i have my opinion and the ability to duel wield weapons, fancy new textures on the vehicles and giving master chief a voice isnt going to change it. Prime 2 just came out although sadly i probably wont get a copy for christmas... alas theres always the summer. Cant wait till the DS/PSP release, good times should be had there. Oh has anyone played Half Life 2 yet cause i am probably gonna have to pick it up by the end of the month. Considering that the World's of Warcraft beta has now ended I am left with no games upon my computer to pass the time with. Well ok there is Doom 3 but honestly that really isnt a game that screams to be replayed, what with its incredibly varied action and never repetitive events and all that. Sigh i really need a good first person violence fix (note the good part I dont want any comments about go play Halo 2 from you guys, well moreso cause im talking about my computer and not one of the various x-boxes on the floor)
Yes well thats enough for one night, one final parting comment i came across a rather amusing web-comic (yes im a geek but i could care less) that is like Penny-Arcade (sometimes quite a bit funnier) and its Canadian! Great fun for all, and by all i mean well Neil and Keith. Regardless here be a link to it, enjoy and have a good one:
