Hi Ho Silver Away!

Ah, Coming back from vacation is never fun or easy to do. JD and I went to Seattle for four days and it was amazing. We ate all sorts of Asian foods, that are absent for some odd reason in Chicago. We also discovered there are a lot of crazy crazy people there! Chicago has lots of homeless people, but they generally keep to themselves when not begging for money. In Seattle, they were screaming at the sky, they were wearing 15 scrunchies and getting in the way in general, they were passing out on the bus and dropping their Mickies bottles at 10 am. It was nuts!
Here is your essay homework, If you were a mayor of a city, how would you deal with your homeless population? Or how crazy are the homeless in your city?
Thank you.

New Jobby job

Yay! I started my new job and so far so good! My boss seems very cool and my coworkers don't seem to be jerks. So far so good! The work seems like it's going to be different, all these new applications I need to learn and stuff. But it does seem like there is going to be plenty of room for me to grow. So I'm excited about that too.
I work at the John Hancock building. 20 floors below where Chris Farley died. It's where Jerry Springer lives. Across the street from Jennifer Aniston and Oprah Winfrey. It's preeettty coooOOL.
I'm still in training and learning about the business. It's pretty cool. It's a Real estate bank. they buy and sell properties and manage some properties. I'm still not sure as to why there's trading done inside though... I guess in due time I'll figure out the business just like at Pharmingen. I'm so excited about this job. hopefully it'll be good.

Worst Movie Ever....!

No, i didn't have the displeasure of seeing MI3 (or MIIII as i like to refer to it) this weekend and, in fact, I was happy to hear it did worse than expected. I kept hearing from people that they weren't going to see it "'cause Tom Cruise is nuts". But I did manage to sit through Hostel and ugh. Ugh with a capital UG! I'm pretty sure i've got better ideas for a movie. In fact, how about one where backpackers get slaughtered in a hostel by soome traveling lunatic. That would be scarier than this piece of garbage. The premise was retarded, and the acting (esp in the beginning) was atrocious. Am i expecting too much from a horror flick? I don't think so. I want that hour of my life back!, oh, i'd just waste it anyway.
Recent movie recap:
Capote - Yay!
Velocity of Gary - Booooo!
Hostel - Booooo!
Donny Darco - Yay!
Charlie's Angels (first half) - Meh.
Lost (series) - Yay!
Stepford Wives - Meh.
Brazil - Yay!

Now get back to work!

Blowing up schools a la Myspace

I found out some other kid put a plan to blow up his school on his myspace account. Why don't I see these myspace pages? The only ones I see are ones asking for people to comment on their pictures, and fill out surveys starting with what's your favorite color, etc. I once saw a slam book, does anyone remember those from Junior high? god I loved those. I even made one. Anyway, my point, Why are the criminal minded using Myspace to glorify their crimes?
