DUMB LUCK
yesterday i had my amp and speakers installed into my new car (i got a new car by the way... prrt). for the tech heads, the installer didn't bridge the amp, so i had to rewire the shit. it also turns out that one of my subs has been blown for a while now.

no problem, i got them for 5 bucks each at fry's.

however, getting to the amp was a new problem, since it meant taking out my front seat. i was working on it last night and got everything changed, system bumpin' all gravy right.

so i started cleaning up, took my backpack out and stuck it on top of the car, put tools away etc. the guy left a mess in the back seat also so i had 2 deal with that. then i decide to go for a test drive.

so i drive around the neighborhood for at least 15 minutes. mind you, i'm on busy streets but im just chillin, trying different settings on my radio and shit. the system passes with flying colors, i get it to a point where i'm cool with it.

i come home and put the car in the garage, get out and am shocked to see my backpack still on the roof.

i just look at it for about a good minute or two. i can't move. can't believe i left the shit on the roof. my LAPTOP was in there! so the first thing i check to see was if the bag was zipped up.

check.

is my computer ok?

check.

the bag is cold from being out on the roof. i start crackin' up at my stupidity. pull the bag off the roof and go inside. i call sunshine and she's laughing for at least a good 10 minutes. so was i. you can't help but laugh at shit like that.

JELLY
i have added to my vernacular the notorious "seattle pally" slang word "jelly."

the term 'jelly' is short for "jealous"

normally i do not partake in borrowing idioms from others. i prefer to use my own terminology (or make up my own shit like E40... btw, he lost me after 'mustard & mayonaisse' which is utterly asinine in my opinion.)

anyway, the reason why i had brought this up today is because i am currently attending a 2 day grant writing training.

i'm using the powerbook g4 to take notes. to my far left is an indiviudual on a big ass dell laptop.

it reminded me of a few times when i was around pc laptop users, proud of their shit. then i pull my mac 12" out and they're like...

"dayam"

sleek, streamlined and powerful. not to mention dead sexy

i've gotten a lot of positive comments on my laptop.

i guess i'm being a computer snob today. perhaps this is for all the years mac users had 2 deal with bullshit pc user shit talking. haha

JUST DON'T GET IT AWARDS 2004
i was watching bush's "victory" speech on tv the other day. was it just me or did he sound like he was trying to wing it. i'm more eloquent than him in this blog. and that's with bad words! wtf. anyway, i digress. don't want 2 start my day off by shit talkin. i'll save that for mid-morning.

so yeh i'm gonna give myself the "just don't get it" award for 2004. i don't understand what this vote for bush means. all i know is that we're a nation divided; the dumb and the dumber.

i had seen this suv with 2 bumperstickers; the one on top was the bush/chaney sticker and underneath was a sticker with the american flag and the words "the sleeping giant awakes" i'm gonna go out on a limb and assume that this means that after 9/11, the US has been awaken or whatever...

what i wanted to do was get a sharpie and add the word "retarded" in front of giant. however i don't want to offend people with down's syndrome. nowadays, they're better than your average run of the mill american. but i can't think of a better word to describe america's own over-confidence and self-centeredness.

then again can we blame the people for swallowing the bullshit our gov't and our media feeds it?

here at KSB we sure can! i feel like the US has become a pig farm. a bunch of people being fed their own shit, the farmer telling the pigs it's filet mignon. er, actually, pigs eat their own shit because they want to. hmmm, maybe that's a bad analogy... but you get my point, right?

i equate this vote for bush with a vote for safety. i've talked 2 a few bush supporters and the main theme that recurrs in their perspective is that the US needs to have a strong presence so that "no one will fuck with us" (i paraphrased myself there). i imagine many people are scared and would rather feel safe than vote for a "wishy-washy" president who fought for peace after vietnam. basically bush was telling everyone "he's not a monger like i am! i'll whoop some ass for you america! who's coming with me?"

admittedly, i felt like bush was gonna win. people are eating his shit like krispy kreme before atkins. it's almost prophecy filling for him to be in power right now. shit has 2 get real bad before it gets good. OR if bush does squash the terrorists, the whole cycle will repeat and the US will remain on top. i'm thinking that's Bush's goal. what i'm afraid of is this...

what if Bin Laden wants Bush in power?

done and done.

oh and a close runner up to me was the author of this book. i just thought it was funny because the title can be read 2 entirely different ways. if you put that book at any barnes & noble at your local suburban strip mall, it would be "why men love vindictive women." if you put that book in the hood it would be read as "why men love hoes"

a woman wrote this book? wtf.

HAVE NO FEAR
ok so i'm back to reality for a sec. bush? well i figured so. lot of "dumb" people in our country voted for bush according to this. but you know, i feel that diagram is too judgemental. i know for a fact that there are a lot of dumb people here in california too.

i prefer this instead. it saves me a move to canada and i don't have to convert my dough to canadian currency.

holler!

I LOVE YOU TOO
today's quote of the day...

"dangit, i fuckin love you. =)"
           -sunshine (via email)

you had me at "fuck"...

if any of ya'll know me and my penchant for a sailor's vernacular, that there is a woman worth keeping.

so yes, normally i would write about the interesting political turn of events we americans fondly refer to as our "election." but i am above the clouds on this one. i got a few emails from friends expressing disgust and their desire to move to canada.

recall my "bold predictions" from october 6, 2004...

bold predictions
1. osama bin laden will be captured either sometime before election or sometime after bush gets inaugurated.

2. remember the threat thermometer thing? the orange, yellow, alert thingie? i predict something "big" may happen in our country, which triggers the alert system to rise.

i really hope these things don't happen. i don't want to be right, people. because that means i have to move to canada like i said previously... then again.. victoria b.c. is nice this time of year. and it's not that far from seattle


ok so maybe vancouver might be better. when i was nine, i went 2 victoria b.c. by way of ferry. that shit had me sicker than john kerry during his concession call to the big dubya...

i digress. for i wish to not spoil my mood.

AN EXERCISE IN RISK TAKING
i opened up to someone this weekend. expressed true emotions to the core. even though i wasn't really sure what was going on. i was compelled 2 share my inner sanctum of emotions and put it all out there like i was "all in" at the wsop final table.

it wasn't easy yet sunshine made it easy to do so.

wow. i don't know what to say really. i just know that i'm happy and feel good about what's goin on. so yeh, i guess i'll just leave it at that for now.
