Just got Brian's Song off Amazon. Watched it, and cried like a hungry angry baby for about half an hour. Oh god. I am still shaking. And on a side note, is it wrong that Sean Maher is still sexy even when he has cancer? Oh my oh my oh my....

I've been cruising Neatorama.com recently, and today they had a paragraph about Joost. Apparently you can only get it if you're invited as it's still in beta. One of the contributors to Neatorama has it and at my request sent an invite to me. After I signed up, I sent him a minimal gift for his time and he wrote back. We exchanged several emails,our interests on books, places and computers. He sent me a link to a site and his profile there. Bear with me, almost there! He likes scifi, guerrila marketing and studied Mandarin Chinese! See a pattern here? I asked him if perchance he might be a browncoat. He wrote back saying he had to look it up, but funny thing is he went to school with Ben Edlund! I've written to him again, providing a link to versaphile for the eps and to youtube for the Blaze of Glory vid by Fayleigh. Now waiting for the magic to grab him!!!!

Title aside, I did not get mind-tricked into performing it. :wink: But I did get home a little while ago and reread everybody's comments on my last blog. First of all - [b]yinyang,[/b] your apology is gladly accepted and tucked safely into the inside pocket of my brown coat. I think what's needed here, though, is a little bit of clarification on why I said what I said. Yeah, look, here's what it is: Every time I post something like that, whether it's here or on LJ or Myspace, whether it's a blog entry or a community post, somebody always pops up and says, Don't give up! Ever am I embroiled in trying to drill it into my own brain pan that whatever happens happens and a much greater being than myself has control over it. At the same time though, logic and experience vie to influence my perception of the future. Logic says, You shouldn't give up, you should sit back, concentrate on something else and let it take its course. Experience says, For-fucking-get about it, you're just setting yourself up for more misery if you ever try again. More often than not, it's the voice of experience that gets amplified by such an occurrence as being rejected out of hand (sometimes just because I'm a virgin!), seeing my sister's happy family, or really, almost any time I cross paths with a happy couple. I always say that life has to be balanced - hurt with happiness, the strait of life before the peace of death. Still looking for the answer to why the hurt/happiness scale insists on tilting so sharply in the former direction. So I hope that clarifies things a little. Now I'm gonna go do something else, like write....
