Well, this is probably the final entry.

Not that I won't read yours anymore if you have one, I just doubt this will be updated for a while.

Check Myspace if you really want to know what's going down

Until then this is what you need to know

The new Third Element is avaliable

However there are only 50 copies up for grabs and they are $5

I'm in Florida again for the summer unit leading food service, who really saw that coming?

I've also put 2000 miles on my car this week.

Other than that, any more updates will be on myspace, sorry xanga, there's just no time for you.

Someone asked me the other day what part of Boston I was from.

Had I not been working in the Starbucks drive thru, homicide might have ensued.

I seem to operating on the edge of my breaking point, but that's just how I roll.

Third Element's new EP should be avaliable two weeks from today.

In other words, make sure you have $7 ready to spend by May 30th

In the meantime camp is bearing down on me, and its only a matter or time before I'm gone.

The hour is coming and now is, that a new Third Element should be captured on audio. Next week seems like a good time, since its kinda like a spring break of sorts (two classes end today and the next three don't start until the 1st).

There's nothing quite like the feeling after a good workout first thing in the morning. It far surpasses the feeling of having to go to work shortly after. But at least I work with cool people, and thoroughly enjoy what I do.

I'm learning more and more how to manipulate my body to achieve what I want to. That sounds odd at first, but in reality that's how it works. My mind has its own agenda, and fairly often my body disagrees. Quite possibly this was what the apostle Paul was referring to when he talked about bringing his body into submission. Too many people go the other way and just follow wherever their desires lead them, or as John called them, the lusts of the flesh. I quite honestly believe that when the word flesh is used throughout the NT, its not necessarily referring to our old sin nature or some metaphysical entity, it should be taken literally to mean just what it says, your actual flesh and physical self. Hopefully this casts a new light on some passages, but if not, that's alright.

Should someone be allowed to enjoy life this much? It seems like everything brings some measure of fulfillment and excitement. Maybe I just see things differently, but it seems at times, especially recently, I see beauty in everything, and enjoy things way more than I used to. Just driving around with the windows listening to Saves the Day, or the Mars Volta, borders on a spiritual experience. Or reading a book out on the porch, watching ginormous bees deflower all the spring virgins. Anyway, I hope this doesn't run out and me, and I can carry it over into the summer, maybe infect some of my guys with it.

Time for my ritual cleansing.

I worked with a guy at camp a few years back that kept running lists of people. He had the lists ranked, from gold (being the highest), to white (which most everyone was on), to red (which wasn't too good), to black (which wasn't good at all), to the ring of fire, which basically only included Satan, Adolf Hitler, and Dr Jim (camp director, long story, but turns out my friend was right on)

He also was obsessed with Dr. Who, and wanted to British, so much so that he kept a framed 8x10 of the queen by his bed. Anyway...

This is my current gold list, of things though, not people, because that might not go over so well. I mean I have a top 8 already*, which may or may not be arbitrary (you'll never know, now will you?) 

1. Marturo (always #1, even if its not in any particular order)

2. Between the Heart and the Synapse by The Receiving End of Sirens

3. Quad Espressos with a pinch of nonfat and your choice of syrup

4. Downloadable sermons by John Piper on biblicalpreaching.com

5. Alaska by Between the Buried and Me

6. Salsaritas (large quesadillas and nachos)

7. Any of the Doorway Papers by Arthur Custance (deeply theological)

8. The Colbert Report

9. Yahoo Music Engine

10. Philosophy class (well, not so much the actual class)

I'm sure this will change at some point. But for now, there you go

Bad news for those of you planning to hunt eggs on Sunday.

Apparently this guy caught the Easter bunny over in Germany, so start making other plans for Easter, like maybe something important.

The Receiving End of Sirens is amazing. There, you've been warned.
