Life is like pistachio nut where you open the shell and it turns out to be empty and since you weren’t paying attention (you were watching Colbert or something) you can’t tell if you somehow just had an empty shell or maybe you dropped the nut as you were opening it. So you’re looking around on your lap but you don’t see anything and you can’t see anything on the floor and in the end you have no answers so you just have to move onto the next pistachio and hope that it’ll all work itself out.

If nothing else, I suppose this website should be a journal of my encounters with the law. From now on, every encounter with the police that I have shall be on here.

Tonight, about half an hour ago I was getting a ride home with a co-worker when we were pulled over for speeding I guess. As the one cop was dealing with the driver, his partner came to my side and asked for my identification as well. I don’t know if that is standard procedure or if my suspicious-looking demeanor brought it on, but it made me feel like part of the experience. I was informed that I have changed a bit since the photo was taken and this is correct, because I have not shaved in quite some. We also made small talk about the weather. So that’s my experience with the police for just now. Not as cool as the one last Summer when I was clearly suspected of being an evil man prowling the night. I guess cars make a difference.

In other news, apparently the current food crisis in the world has caused a raise in the price of rice to an extent that stores mentioned on the Daily Show and Colbert have been limiting the amount of rice that people can buy at any given time. It’s like a rice price crisis. And since I eat rice about four times a week I feel justified in saying this is potentially the Worst Thing Happening on this planet at this moment (I apologize to everyone being murdered right now. You’ll just have to do better next time). Of course, as believer in a world without currency I would like to see it solved by providing rice farmers with all they need to survive so that they can grow rice without having to worry about profits and all that. That might could help keep rice prices nice.

I’d also apply that logic to pretty much every food grower, service provider and good manufacturer you could name. If we all give everybody our stuff for free, they won’t need to charge us for theirs.

Sure, systems based on human decency seem like they’d never work, but you have to admit it would be nice.

There’s a Mansheep now? Holy chimps! We’re screwed. I saw on the Colbert Report that scientists have created a hybrid man/sheep. That’s freaky. Although now it occurs to me that humanity is largely a bunch of sheep anyhow. I did a quick look at CNN.com to see if I could find a link, but couldn’t, so I’ll just leave it to your imaginations, because that will be worse for you.

But I can say that if we keep along this line of genetic experimentation. It’s only a matter of time.

And finally, Contains2 is still not working. I… really don’t know what to do about that. I’m not happy.

Well, now I can say that I have watched the Star Wars Holiday Special. It’s one of those things accomplished not because it was good to do, but because it simply had to be done. Some people climb mountains…

Here’s the part where I complain about work. Usually I don’t work on Tuesdays, but today I did. And then when I went home I fell immediately asleep and woke up thinking it was the next morning and I was gonna be late for work and all that. And now I’m awake but will have to try to get a few more hours of sleep before I go to work again. On the plus side, I’m gonna go watch the Daily Show and the Colbert Report.
