So I was wondering a little earlier: If I found $33,000 in the back of MY taxi, would I give it back? Or would I keep it? Or would I scream "What the HELL is GOING ON HERE?!? I don't have a cab!! I've NEVER had a cab! Where the hell did this cab COME FROM???"

On a less dated note, you may have noticed that this page doesn't have any fancy background, or colored text, or even pictures. Well, I suppose it has my back button, but we all know and love my back button. That doesn't count.
Anyway, this page is plain normal text because colored text and tiled backgrounds are not official HTML, they're Netscape add-ons, and I'm protesting the Government's cover-up of the alien spacecraft crash at Roswell. These two facts have, as far as I know, no connection to each other at all. But at the moment I think they're both true, so isn't that what REALLY matters?

Probably not.

There's a great big thunderstorm going on right now. It's got strong wind, and heavy rain, and even hailstones! And yes, fans of the Weather Channel, the hail is "golf-ball sized." It's one of those nights where everyone should be asleep inside under a warm blanket, so naturally I went out and picked raspberries. The lightning was constant enough that it was possible to find the raspberries, but not easy. Storms are really cool. My trenchcoat is happy now.

This isn't nearly as entertaining as the last thing I wrote for this page, a few words about summer jobs, is it? I bet that's because I haven't said (wrote?) the magic word yet. Monkey.
monkey monkey monkey monkey monkey monkey monkey

I just love cut & paste. I also am quite fond of ampersands, but mainly only for pairs of words that are so commonly associated that it's almost like they were really just one word. Like Laurel & Hardy.
Thunder & lightning. Dungeons & Dragons. Beer & Pretzels.
Bert & Ernie. Cake & Sodomy. Crash & burn.
Sex, drugs & Rock 'n' Roll.

I have two (2) comments about that last one. First, I don't really like the use of "'n'". (Though it looks cool with quotes around it.) I don't know why, I just don't like it. I am, however, quite fond of o' instead o' of. (Whee! That sentence is fun!)
Second, since 'n' is short for and, it should be
Sex, drugs, rock, & roll. Though I think that some people DO say it that way, so I can't really complain. Now I feel stupid.

But now it's tomorrow, so I don't feel stupid anymore. Or wet. That's real nice, because when I was writing most of this stuff I was still pretty wet from the storm. It was fun, though.

Everybody gives movies shit for being unrealistic or unbelievable, but that's really unfair. I think reality is unrealistic. How many times have you been watching a movie and seen this:

Two people meet and flirt during a very brief conversation, then seperate without getting each other's phone numbers. You immediately think to yourself (and to those around you, if you're rude): Those two are going to fall in love and wind up together by the end of the movie.
And it happens, right? Not always, but usually. The BELIEVABLE outcome happened. It's obviously believable, because you knew it was going to happen even before it did. That outcome is clearly the most sensible, realistic, and believable outcome, because we all believed it would happen through the entire movie.

On the other hand, when two people meet & flirt in "real life" and they don't get each other's phone numbers or some way that one can locate the other, they hardly ever run into each other later on, fall in love, and wind up together. Thus the REALISTIC and BELIEVABLE outcome did not happen outside of the movies, in "reality."

So there.
