Classic DF – 10/20/02

October 20, 2002: [•] Monkey? [•] How about cow instead? [•] Prepare to laugh: Christina Aguilera’s new video, Dirrty, features posters that promote the Thai underage sex industry. [•] How do you defend your country from an impending invasion? Release all your criminals onto the street! Don’t worry Saddam the US can respond in kind: We’ll send over both the Bloods and the Crypts to jack your ass. 🙂 [•] Had another night of mayhem with V. Ran into my old friend Vampire Craig. Hadn’t seen him in over two years. Caught up on old times and hopefully we’re going to going hang out soon. Should be… dangerous. LOL Speaking of danger: Remember that Dr. Pepper soda and a keyboard don’t mix well. AIGHT!

Classic DF – 10/19/02


October 19, 2002: [•] This morning was a very tea only morning. Damn you acid reflux! Last night over at V’s I watched part of Comedy Central‘s “first original” movie Porn N’ Chicken (which basically isn’t very original, but anyhow) and I thought there was one interesting thing. During the movie the main characters, whose names escape me (it was just that good of a movie), decide to make a porno film to buck the establishment (cause God knows that when the Bay of Pigs happened in Cuba the first thing they did was make a gang bang movie after overthrowing the government). They named the porno film The Staxxx and that is oddly close to Immy‘s Stack Ups!. I just found that very interesting; I don’t know why. Maybe it was ironic or maybe… naw, I was just up too late last night again LOL. 🙂 Other than that life has been good overall. I’m in a great mood once again. I might as well enjoy it while it lasts. My apartment needs to be cleaned, but that will wait until Tuesday when I get the day off. Tonight I get an oil change, so that’s cool. It’s the little things that are making the Focus run better. I can’t wait to do some REAL mods though. I’m itching here people! Turbo! Turbo! Chant with me: Turbo! Turbo! 🙂 I’m done now.

Classic DF – 8/2/02

August 02, 2002: [•] Two sheriff’s deputies located two kidnapped teenage girls and shot their kidnapper minutes before he planned to execute the girls. [•] Ziad Jarrah, one of the 9/11 terrorists, was being watched by the CIA at one point. [•] Israel has begun retaliation for the bombing of a school cafeteria two days ago. [•] Mystery blobs are appearing on sidewalks in Camden, NJ. [•] Iraq is considering allowing arms inspections to resume. [•] 20 people are dead after fighting in Kashmir. [•] A kidnapped German has been released in Sudan. [•] A man arrested in Zambia has admitted to practicing black magic and even more disturbing was authorities found him in possession of a human heart wrapped in a cloth. [•] Fighting has broken out in Afghanistan between Tajiks and Pashtuns. [•] An ex-cop was killed in a shoot-out with his former coworkers after they tried to arrest him on suspicion of killing his wife. [•] A girl has turned up missing in San Francisco. [•] For once and all I’d to put the rumors to rest that my wife and I are getting divorced. Yes, we’ve had our arguments; but nothing out of the ordinary for any married couple to disagree over. Melissa and I have honestly never been happier and we are more committed to each other than ever before. Despite arguments, personal differences, and opinions that differ we are still together. This will be for the foreseeable future. While I appreciate the concern of friends I’m a little confused about motives nevertheless. My marriage is not based on staying together for my daughter alone. It is based on Melissa and my mutual need to love each other. We respect each other and we have made great strides to over come every personal issue we have encountered. Certainly, we are like no married couple and unlike 50% of couples today we have managed to have our marriage last 3 years. If we didn’t want to be with each other believe me we would have already made that choice. Divorce is a choice made by couples who cannot fix their indifferences. It is not caused by simply fighting and in some instances it is caused by lack there in of. Without communication and interaction a marriage is doomed to fail. What some see as a troubled marriage is actually a healthy one in many aspects. People may not be able to handle our frank handling of matters and our openness to discuss issues in heated conversation. However, this does not designate my marriage as a failure. Our relationship has always been built on commitment and with such it will continue to be. Last night when I embraced my wife and for the billionth time told her that I loved her it meant just as much, if not more than, as the first day I said those words. I love you wife (and daughter too) and I know you feel the same about me. 🙂
