The reason why I am still single…
I know it’s sad, but ill look up sumn on wiki, then see how many links I can click on to get to another topic. Say I could google “Charlie Chaplin wiki”. Get onto wiki and see how I can bring that around to Pi (3.14). So as I read about Chaplin, I could see a link that I think could get me closer to my goal (pi)** etc, etc, etc…
I hit up my boy, so we started a new game, but it’s played on youtube (and IM)
First time we did it we started at Kenny Rogers’s song the gambler, object was to see who would get to A Tribe Called Quests song "Scenario" first.
I went thru the version of Kenny Rodgers “gambler” got to his song “Aint No Sunshine” , Stings "Aint no sunshine", Bill Withers "Aint No Sunshine", DMX "Aint No Sunshine"… was trying to work to A Tribe Called Quest.
I lost! Words of wisdom I got from my dude…
E-Jey says (9:51 PM):
Those booty shakers will have hip-hop in there somewhere
E-Jey says (9:52 PM):
from hip hop just find an artist that will link you to the right place
E-Jey says (9:52 PM):
I started from missy
E-Jey says (9:53 PM):
Then Busta, then got you all in check
E-Jey says (9:54 PM):
then tribe
E-Jey says (9:54 PM):
and it was there”
Moral of the story is, there is no moral…but its fun! ****
Any1 wana challenge me??
* I don’t really like the guy, but he is one of my best friends cus our older brothers where best friends, and so we both grew up on that old school hip hop
** between me and u (well both of u) I have a fascination with 3.14 right now- odd- considering I am not into math’s***
*** If i was a serious blogger id be writing about circles etc, maybe another lifetime.
**** Well also black people like booty

Deep Thought
I thought id take that concept a step further, in high school I was inspired by a concept from the Society of Jesus, I learnt in high school ( I went to a Jesuit Mission School*).. Where at the end of each night Jesuit Priests, reflect on the day that has just passed.
A personal reflection, where one can consider the thoughts that go through ones head. In interactions and situations faced throughout the day. How one thinks in certain situations and how one may have reacted to whatever stimuli they may have encountered throughout the day. The mistakes one has made, the things one did right, etc, and how one may use this knowledge in the days to come… To help make one a better person! It is in essence similar to how Muslims "strive for perfection"
I am not sure if I am doing it quite right! At the end of the night in reflection, here is a typical sample of the things that go through my head, during the day…
“I bought a big box of chocolates, a week or two ago, for some reason there are no Twix candy bars, left!”… (Later in the day)… “Why is my apartment filled with Twix wrappers???”
“Dammit another salad is tormenting me”... (a little later)…”Why does my fridge smell??”
“Maybe I should have taken a shower last week”… (A little later)…. “Why am I still single?”
Maybe one day I will figure this whole life thing out...**
* For all intensive purposes it really was/is
** Or just read the Hitch Hikers guide to the galaxy

A star is born
Somehow sneaking more than 11 items into express lanes at the supermarket isn’t doing it for me anymore. As devious as that is, I don’t think, it will get me remembered.
After some thought. I have come up with a 2-point action plan*:
1. Fire Tendai as my hype man, engineer, and consultant.
2. Lie
Steven Colbert coined the term “truthiness”; History is what we make it (depending on who won, or which “truth” appeals more to you/us)
If it’s on Wikipedia then it must be true…
By the time u finish reading this (if u can see this entry), according to Wikipedia.
Eating Tuna will be a sign of worshiping the Big Tuna... the hole in Pandaves door will not be really there… Oprah eats Tuna everyday… New York state law will allow the stealing of beer glasses… Okra will be illegal in 52 states, Singapore, and Hatfield!
Hillary stopped eating Tuna (thus the loss)... the tomatonation will be a recognized state… And in a statement by the surgeon general the nutritional value of Sierra Nevada, will be acknowledged and recommended that the American work force have one or two before work, and have one at half hour intervals every Tu's day (Thursday, Monday, wedensday, Friday), and at 15 minutes intervals for those that have to work weekends!**
* Anything past 3 will confuse my readers***
**This is not to imply the practice is not currently being employed by individuals who appreciate the grandness of Sierra Nevada
*** Ironically, there are only Tu****
**** One of which, wont let me see their blog!

Pinky: Hey, here’s a quote for you
"there;s one good thing about music: when it hits, you feel no pain" - bob marley
Tunga: i disagree
Pinky: i do
Tunga: music for me, can be harmful
Pinky: really?
Tunga: yeah

Pinky: it does... but i find it doesn't make me hurt. it echoes my own pain but doesn't create more
Tunga: i guess
but it can also amplify
Pinky: true
Tunga: cherish the day
wont go astray
breathe again, breathe again....
Pinky: my shoulder hurts

New Roomate…
The problem with living by yourself, Is that without roommates one may forget to do certain things, like say pay electricity bills, or cable bills…*
After being inspired by a close friend… I have decided I am going to have an imaginary friend/roommate. At some point, the line about the lights being off, because I feel its more romantic is going to stop working.
At least now, when I walk into the apartment with a friend I can be like “Dammit, I gave this guy money to pay the bills and he still hasn’t, I hate that guy!”
Show how irresponsible, he is leaving MY clothes on the floor** show how he eats all my food, Never buys any food, leaves my fridge empty, but somehow always manages to keep it packed with nothing but beer, beer, beer, and even more beer. How he visits and bookmarks dubious websites on my computer. Leaves dirty dishes in the kitchen, empty beer cans in the bathroom, living room, kitchen, windowsill and pantry***
And just for kicks, I figured id call the guy Tendai****
I see so much potential… When I go out for Dinner, and suddenly cant find, my credit cards, I will recall how I had my wallet last night, left it in the living room, when I got home, and the only person, who has been home is…..*****
* This is not to imply that I am currently sitting home alone in the dark, stealing internet access from my neighbors wifi, wondering how much longer the battery power on my computer is gona last me while frantically trying to come up with an excuse for delaying the impending arrival of some mates from work, who are coming to watch TV
**Yes pinky just like the bright lime green shirt.
***SO truth be told it’s a studio/loft thingy going on, there is no room for a cutting board in the kitchen let alone a pantry. But I felt I needed to put in one more “and”, so pantry
Was the next best thing
****This way, when I say ohh he was at the club, 3 weeks ago (and there Is always gona be a Tendai who was at the club three weeks ago), it just makes my story sound more believable. When she says which Tendai was that, ill act all offended and be like, hw come u don’t remember my friends.
***** Come come now pinky, its not rocket science

Cool like that…
I have come to the conclusion that my apartment…actually likes being messy..
Spent the whole of yesterday cleaning, and today it is all messed up. I think it just likes being messy. I am not one for confrontation, so I wont mess* with it.
Then again…. Maybe it just wants me to stay single
* No pun intended
