Happy Easter

News tidbits...

Ok, so I get why NYC is promoting circumcision. What I do not get, is how they conducted those tests to see whether circumcision really does reduce the risk of HIV. Any theories?

Another thing I do not get is why, after ALL the warnings we get concerning global warming, people do not listen and still think it is a joke. It is going to get worse. Brace yourselves. Check it out here.

Faithless: Insomnia

deep in the bosom of the gentle night,
Is where i search for the light,
Pick up my pen and start to write,
I struggle a fight,
Dark forces in the clear moonlight without fear,
Insomnia.

I can't get no sleep.

I used to worry,
Thought i was going mad in a hurry,
Getting stressed, making excess
Mess in darkness. no electricity,
Something's all over me, greasy.
Insomnia please release me,
And let me dream of making mad love to my girl on the heath,
Tearing off tights with my teeth.
But there's no release, no peace,
I toss and turn without cease.
Like a curse,
I open my eyes and rise like yeast.

At least,
A couple of weeks since i last slept.
Kept taking sleepers,
But now i keep myself pepped
Deeper still,
The night, i write by candle light,
I find in sight
Fundamental movement.

So when it's black
This insomniac
Take an original tack
Keep the beast in my nature under ceaseless attack.
I gets no sleep.

I can't get no sleep.

The end?

Well, the mirage is no longer there. It has completely disappeared and has been replaced with nothing but... nothing. That is what it as been replaced with. A hollow and deep nothingness. You know, all those thoughts and images I had? Well, turns out, all those are nothing now. Nothing.

Nothing.

nothing.

nothing...zero... vacuum...

Quote of the day

Read, every day, something no one else is reading. Think, every day, something no one else is thinking. Do, every day, something no one else would be silly enough to do. It is bad for the mind to be always part of unanimity. - Christopher Morley

Wrong...

You know when you start the day and you have this feeling that it is all wrong? The way you wake up, the way you look, the way you are seen, the way you look at things, everything, and I mean everything, is wrong. Well, today is that day. It is wrong.

yaaaaaaay stem-cell research!!!

They are growing heart tissue from stem cells here. I think it is great what technology could help us attain.

I also read something about changing blood types to O so that everyone is a universal donor. Amaaaazing.

=)

I am drained,

tired, fed up, unhappy and confused. I also hate my period, have I ever mentioned that before? It turns me into this walking hormone-machine. It sucks.

I just watched episodes 1-17 of season 3 of Grey's Anatomy. Very dramatic, wonder what else they have in order for them to create a season 4. Seems to me that anything that could ever happen, has already happened. Unless, of course, the chief turns gay or something because his wife doesn't want him, his mistress died, and the "ladies" don't look his way. Something to look forward to knowing, I guess.

I went to a poetry reading by Mahmoud Darwish tonight. It wasn't as good as I expected it to be. He also presented himself as someone who is full of it, so I did not like him. Too bad, he has great poems.

Another thing I hate...

... how people you cut out of your life keep finding a way back in, and INDIRECTLY too.

So annoying.

meh...
