Ok, I came across this guy by the name of Jason Mraz once again on the web and I have to say that I love his style! I need to make this entry fast, so I'm going to type as fast as possible. I think perhaps my interest in his songs come from the fact that I first head Jason's music tied into this video on youtube.com:
The Wong Fu guys are definitely amazing. I'll have to make it a point to meet them sometime. You can find all of their videos here: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=wong+fu&search=Search
And apparently there are also full video's of Jason's concerts up on YouTube! ! I wonder what else you can find on youtube.com if you searched hard enough! Crazyness!

My car just got broken into! Sometime within the last 4 hours, someone opened my door , took all of my change, rummaged through my glove box and took my amplifier in my trunk.
I woke up just now to my roommate pounding on my bedroom door. He said "Alex! Your cars been broken into and the doors are open!"
I tell you, I am so freaking mad right now. These guys broke into my roommates car (through his window) just this last week to. I hope we're not being targeted :)
This is so stupid though. I've spent the last hour thinking of various ways to catch this guy, but legally, I don't think we could do anything! Isn't this considered "small time" theft?
If you wanted to, you could just go around jacking peoples stuff out of their cars and no one could do anything about it.
My roomie and I thought about tazering the guy, but if he's got a gun, we're goners. So that idea went out the door fairly fast. Man. If you even touch the guy, he could sue you!
How To Make Your Own Luck - Fastcompany.com Repost
Here's an interesting article... See? My ADD comes in handy after all!!! ;)
----------------------------------------------------------- "It's better to be lucky than smart." "You make your own luck in life." "Some folks are just born lucky." In an environment marked by rising tensions and diminished expectations, most of us could use a little luck -- at our companies, in our careers, with our investments. Richard Wiseman thinks that he can help you find some.
Road It is when you stop going along with the crowd and start realizing that there are a lot of things about yourself that you didn't know and may or may not like. You start feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two, but then get scared because you barely know where you are now.
You start realizing that people are selfish and that, maybe, those friends that you thought you were so close to aren't exactly the greatest people you have ever met and the people you have lost touch with are some of the most important ones. What you do not realize is that they are realizing that too and are not really cold or catty or mean or insincere, but that they are as confused as you.
You look at your job. It is not even close to what you thought you would be doing or maybe you are looking for one and realizing that you are going to have to start at the bottom and are scared.
You miss the comforts of college, of groups, of socializing with the same people on a constant basis. But then you realize that maybe they weren't so great after all.
You are beginning to understand yourself and what you want and do not want. Your opinions have gotten stronger. You see what others are doing and find yourself judging a bit more than usual because suddenly you realize that you have certain boundaries in your life and add things to your list of what is acceptable and what is not. You are insecure and then secure. You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your life. You feel alone and scared and confused. Suddenly change is the enemy and you try and cling on to the past with dear life but soon realize that the past is drifting further and further away and there is nothing to do but stay where you are or move forward.
You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do such damage to you or you lay in bed and wonder why you can't meet anyone decent enough to get to know better. You love someone but maybe love someone else too and cannot figure out why you are doing this because you are not a bad person.
One night stands and random hook ups start to look cheap and getting wasted and acting like an idiot starts to look pathetic. You go through the same emotions and questions over and over and talk with your friends about the same topics because you cannot seem to make a decision.
You worry about loans and money and the future and making a life for yourself and while wining the race would be great, right now you'd just like to be a contender!
What you may not realize is that everyone reading this relates to it. We are in our best of times and our worst of times, trying as hard as we can to figure this whole thing out.
Here's a posting that's sure to cause a stir. =) I would love to get to your know view points on this (PS Thanks CABRAT22!):
Dear President Bush,
Thank you for doing so much to educate people
regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from you, and try to share that
knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the
homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22
clearly states it to be an abomination...end of debate.
I do need some
advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God's Laws and how to
follow them:
1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both
male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend
of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you
clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?
2. I would like to sell my daughter
into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you
think would be a fair price for her?
3. I know that I am allowed no
contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness
(Lev.15: 19-24). The problem is how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most
women take offense.
4. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I
know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord (Lev.1:9). The problem is my
neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite
them?
5. I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus
35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill
him myself, or should I ask the police to do it?
6. A friend of mine
feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination (Lev. 11:10), it is a
lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this? Are
there 'degrees' of abomination?
7. Lev.21:20 states that I may not
approach the altar of God if I have defect in my sight. I have to admit that I
wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some
wiggle-room here?
8. Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed,
including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden
by Lev. 9:27. How should they die?
9. I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that
touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football
if I wear gloves?
10. My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev.19:19 by
planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing
garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also
tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the
trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them (Lev. 24:10-16)?
Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair, as we do with
people who sleep with their in-laws (Lev. 20:14)?
I know you have studied
these things extensively and thus enjoy considerable expertise in such matters,
so I am confident you can help.
Thank you again for reminding us that
God's word is eternal and unchanging.
