Sinisterinos! (must eat their beeforino?) I've realized something rather odd today. Only a year ago, i would stand at the bus stop and drop verses from the likes of Ol' Dirty Bastards first album, but now i find myself singing the boy done wrong again, as well as i can, even when old ladies walk by and look at me funny. Just a thought when walking home from work: Does using McDonalds as an ultimatum make you a lazy and uninspired parent? I hate that establishment, and will never bring my children there. While on the subject, is it ever too early to think about how you're going to raise your children? Specifically, education. I don't really know how public schooling is in other countries, but i can say, with at least a little authority, having attended both city and private institutions, that schools in America are beyond help. In the words of Dose One*: "Brainwashing is educational, we the school board, the church, and the State, acting on behalf of our sponsors are here to protect you, all of you!, from drugs, and the slightest knowledge of soul purpose." How true is this? I didn't want to pledge of allegiance to the flag, but fuck all if i was going to sit in a corner for not doing it. Me and children are a long way off, but still, public schools are only going to get worse, and really good private schools are only going to get more expensive. So i wonder, who can teach my children better than myself and my future life partner?, and i inevitably come to the conclusion that no one can. The Answer? Home School. What do you think of this concept? This idea has been rapidly spreading throughout the U.S. in the past decade or so. I like it. I just wonder if any of you do aswell. *Dose One is one of those Anticon kids, who just may very well be the dopest lyricist on the planet. Any one up for some Avant-Hip-Hop; as indie as you can get. Brier: are you from the Bay Area? That's where these guys are from. For some reason, i could see you digging them. them is a name of one of the groups. Who's on first? Continuing on down the education path. . . I have spent the last week contemplating dropping out of university. This place is really doing nothing for me. In addition, i have an opportunity to start making a lot of cash as a *gulp* insurance broker. Being that i've already decided that the job i get after i graduate doesn't matter, because whatever it turns out to be, it will only be a crutch to save up money to start a record/bookstore/recording studio/radio station (one step at a time of course)with two of my best friends. Why not start saving now, rather than three years from now? All it would take is a couple of night courses and the patience to put up with a god awful job for 3 or 4 years. Do i think i've made a life decision this time? Not quite, just thoughts and considerations that are forcing peter pan to grow up. Are you happier when you don't have time to think about falling in love? Are you more likely to fall in love when you're not always thinking about it and wishing that it would hurry up and happen to you? Round-a-bout Content in the form of a quote: "Having had a stab at a career, Miranda left Ned and went to shop in the food section of Marks and Spencer's. She never bothered queue-guessing since she always ended up in the worst queue; the one with the dimwit assistant who got stuck on a particular item or the costomer who paid in pennies slothfully withdrawn from several pockets. . . Meanwhile, she saw Stuart turning tables round from the corner of her eye. She thought to herself that he was a nice enough chap, and went over to say hello. Maybe she could get him to knock off early, and come back to her place. She doubted it, though, with all his talk of being a sinner lately. The last four people she had made the proposition to had all been strangers, and had equally thought her to be disease ridden. However, she was only lonely and seeking companionship, and clean as a whistle, in fact. Stuart, he is rather cute, isn't he, she thought. I do wonder how he is in. . . .
