Sinister: we met when we were in school, never took no s*** from no one, we weren't fools

[Matthew Henderson]

Sometimes life teaches us bad lessons.  I had a paper on the book Hope 
Against History due today for my Irish History final.  I started reading at 
around midnight last night, read until 9 am (with a bit of goofing around in 
between), emailed my professor, then dozed off until 1:45.  I had to take my 
Ethics of Cyberpunk exam at 3:30, so I sat down at the computer and hammered 
out an eight page paper (with quotations) in 45 minutes.  I turned it in, 
took the cyberpunk exam (which was complete crap) and picked up the 10 page 
cyberpunk paper I had turned in about 2 weeks ago.  Now the cyberpunk paper 
which I worried about most of the semester, took me about 6 hours to sling 
together (that includes research) once I just stopped caring.  So I made an 
A-, without even a full bibliography.  Why does this happen?  I got an A+ on 
my cyberpunk midterm earlier in the year, without studying or reading the 
material.  This shouldn't be the way things are.  But they are.  Another 
successful procrastination.  I'll never learn at this rate.

Al Franken is on Conan O'brien, and I must wonder, why does he get "You Can 
Call me Al" as his theme music?

The world is full of cute girls.  I mean, REALLY cute girls.  I've never 
really noticed before, but the past few months, I have noticed them in 
DROVES.  Maybe it's because it's spring, a time when a young man's flight 
turns to fancy.  Or maybe I just hang out in a coffee shop too much.  Either 
way, they're all probably after Ken Chu anyway, so I'm not going to bother 
attempting to talk to them.  Or look at them.  Or stand near them.  Or be in 
the same room with them.  Maybe Benedict had it right by jumping into a 
bushel of thorns whenever a woman came by.

Belle and Sebastian on the Scottish Parliament sounds like a great idea!  
Maybe the band can supply the Scottish motto, if there isn't one already.  
Can't you just imagine a great seal, with St. Andrew's cross and the phrase 
"Scotland:  She's on the Rag"

Then again, maybe that wouldn't work.  I love Scotland though, really.

going to get his ass kicked next time he's in Scotland
