Alright - today's blog is brought to you by Heather. The idea is to fill in the blanks with song titles of a band - I have chosen the almighty Five Iron Frenzy. Here we go.
i love ARNOLD AND WILLIS AND MR DRUMMOND
i hate HURRICANES
i feel COOL ENOUGH FOR YOU
i see myself as SPARTAN
i see my past as SOMETHING LIKE LAUGHTER
my future looks like THE GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD
i think THE PHANTOM MULLET is attractive.
my slogan should be AT LEAST I'M NOT LIKE ALL THOSE OTHER OLD GUYS
don't ever CANNONBALL
i consider DANDILIONS to be ALL THAT IS GOOD
And now, the lyrics to....
The Phantom Mullet - Five Iron Frenzy
Cruisin downtown in your Camaro
REO Speedwagon on the stereo
It's kind of catchy, kind of a virus
Cutting your hair like Billy Ray Cyrus
You're probably bummed, you probably cried
You're probably sad that the guy from Lynyrd Skynyrd died
You're probably singing "oh oh oh"
All night long
Feel the power of the PHANTOM MULLET
Tremble and cower from the PHANTOM MULLET
White metal burn of the PHANTOM MULLET
Combed straight or permed, it's the PHANTOM MULLET
And you, cutting it short on top
I want that for me
Growing it long in the back
So savage and so free
Drop into first you're taking it slow
You're such a rock star
You could never know
I wish I was singing "oh oh oh"
All night long
Betcha didn't believe there was a song about a mullet didja?

Wow... i just realized how seldom I've been posting lately... but that's expected - do you know why, faithful reader? Owen will tell you. You see, for 8 months, I have been living in a two bedroom appartment. Why, you ask? Because this house that we're renovating was a piece of crap. I use the term "was" for a very specific reason however. Because now my computer is IN my house. How EXCITING!!! Well... I'm not exactly living here yet... but it's all coming together. I get carpet in my room on tuesday - THEN i get all my stuff in my room.... and hopefully living permanently soon after - JOY!!
Well now I'm not sure what to say. Maybe it's time for some words of wisdom from yours truly. Todays words of wisdom are brought to you by: "the Princess Bride." "The most well known, is never get involved in a land war in Asia!! But only slightly less well known is this - never go up against a Cecilian when death is on the line!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA--- *thud*" Wow. Just... wow. Vizzini, you are truly a wise man. Too bad Wesley killed you.
Well I thought I'd put this up kuz it's just plain hilarious.
I was thinking really hard recently on what I would say if someone asked me what my favourite song was. I picked this one. It's simple, but about the most meaningful song I've ever heard.
Who Is This? - The Insyderz
Who is this that appears like the dawn?
Fairer than the moon, brighter than the sun
You're the Lover of my soul
Draw me into You
Draw me into You
Who is this that beckons me to come close?
Beauty beyond words surrounds me when You're near
You're the Lover of my soul
Draw me into You
Draw me into You
We will run, we will fly, we will be together
We will laugh, we will cry, we will be together
Who is this that wipes the tears from my eyes?
Just one glimpse of You steals my heart away
You're the Lover of my soul
Draw me into You
Draw me into You

It's been awhile, since I've been here...
so what have I been doing all week you ask? Building house. (stupid house) So what have you been doing, faithful reader? Relaxing over the marvelous march break? As surprising as it is, I'm quite happy for you. Cheers.
That reminds me - does anyone know why people clink glasses and say "cheers"? I'll tell you... years ago, back in the middle ages, people would each exchange a little wine from their glasses with one another... just to show that no one had poisoned anyone else's drink. How fascinating.
And that reminds me of the princess bride - BEST MOVIE EVER - the awesomeness brings me to write down various hilarious quotes.
"Hey Fezzek - are there rocks ahead?"
"If there are, we'll all be dead"
"No more rhymes now - I mean it"
"Anybody want a peanut?"
"INCONCEIVABLE!!!!"
"There's something I should probably tell you - I'm not left handed either ;)"
"Fezzek... you finally did something right"
Alas poor poor fezzek.... died before the sequel could be produced.... stupid sequel
Which brings me to my next point - don't smoke crack
Wilderness - The Supertones
The rain falls on the righteous and the wicked
Mine is not to reason why this is
In this I rest, in this I find my refuge
That my thoughts and ways are not His
I spend my life on looking up the answers
It's rare that I can't find a reason why
But reasons fail at children without mothers
His plan is more than I can know
Have you ever held in doubt
What this life is all about
Have you questioned all these things
That seem important to us
Do you really wanna know
Or are you a little scared
You're afraid that God is not exactly
What you'd had Him be
What should I hold to and what should I do
How do I know if anything's true
I'm somewhere in between Canaan and Egypt
A place called the wilderness
I'm not one who always trusts their feelings
I don't believe in what you'd call blind faith
But faith that you can do all that you promised
And you said it all works for good
It's safe to say I don't see the big picture
I can't see the forest for the trees
And if five hundred lives
Were mine to get to know You
All could be spent on just this
God, do you really understand
What it's like to be a man
Have You ever felt the weight
Of loving all the things you hate
Have You struggled, have You worried
How can You sympathize?
I have spoken much too soon
Put my hand over my mouth
I can't contend with You
Your ways are so much higher
And we pass through the fire
That Christ endured before us
When You were in the wilderness

Meant to Live - Switchfoot
Fumbling his confidence
And wondering why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he’s meant for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly, fly
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Dreaming about Providence
And whether mice or men have second tries
Maybe we’ve been livin with our eyes half open
Maybe we’re bent and broken, broken
We want more than this world’s got to offer
We want more than this world’s got to offer
We want more than the wars of our fathers
And everything inside screams for second life

Did You Feel the Mountains Tremble - Delerious
Did you feel the mountains tremble?
Did you hear the oceans roar?
When the people rose to sing of
Jesus Christ the risen One
Did you feel the people tremble?
Did you hear the singers roar?
When the lost began to sing of
Jesus Christ the saving One
And we can see that, God, You're moving
A mighty river through the nations
And young and old return to Jesus
Fling wide, you heavenly gates
Prepare the way of the risen Lord
Open up the doors and let the music play
Let the streets resound with singing
Songs that bring your hope
Songs that bring your joy
Dancers who dance upon injustice
Do you feel the darkness tremble
When all the saints join in one song?
And all the streams flow as one river
To wash away our brokeness
And here we see that, God, You're moving
A time of jubilee is coming
When young and old return to Jesus
Fling wide, you heavenly gates
Prepare the way of the risen Lord
Did you feel the mountains tremble?
Did you hear the oceans roar?
When the people rose to sing of
Jesus Christ the risen One
Did you feel the people tremble?
Did you hear the singers roar?
When the lost began to sing of
Jesus Christ the saving One
And we can see that, God, You're moving
A mighty river through the nations
And young and old return to Jesus
Fling wide, you heavenly gates
Prepare the way of the risen Lord
Open up the doors and let the music play
Let the streets resound with singing
Songs that bring your hope
Songs that bring your joy
Dancers who dance upon injustice
Do you feel the darkness tremble
When all the saints join in one song?
And all the streams flow as one river
To wash away our brokeness
And here we see that, God, You're moving
A time of jubilee is coming
When young and old return to Jesus
Fling wide, you heavenly gates
Prepare the way of the risen Lord
so here i am, yet again
Where is "here" you ask? Well, it's not my house. But it WILL be my house. Eventually. Stupid house. So how are you enjoying YOUR house, oh faithful reader? Large and spacious, right??? CHERISH IT!!!
Ummm... ambulances are fun.... especially the sirens...
Word of the day: Psycho - it has such a weird spelling... and its quite the fun word to say
And yes, it is once again time for.... TUNE OF THE DAY (or so)
Shut Up and Play - The Supertones
Religious fanatic, that's what they say
True, I may be on the brink
I hear them yell at us, "shut up and play"
Well, who asked what you think?
No time for mediocrity, convenience, or practicality
He went all out for us, say what you will
I'll answer to my God
I'm a freak, they say I've lost my mind
But I know, I've never seen so clearly
When I speak, they say I've gone too far this time
Which lets me know that I have not gone nearly
Bible thumpin' reactionist
And I'm proud to bear the name
Take out music, take away our lives
Jesus still remains
I wonder what will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus freak
Where is "here" you ask? Well, it's not my house. But it WILL be my house. Eventually. Stupid house. So how are you enjoying YOUR house, oh faithful reader? Large and spacious, right??? CHERISH IT!!!
Ummm... ambulances are fun.... especially the sirens...
Word of the day: Psycho - it has such a weird spelling... and its quite the fun word to say
And yes, it is once again time for.... TUNE OF THE DAY (or so)
Shut Up and Play - The Supertones
Religious fanatic, that's what they say
True, I may be on the brink
I hear them yell at us, "shut up and play"
Well, who asked what you think?
No time for mediocrity, convenience, or practicality
He went all out for us, say what you will
I'll answer to my God
I'm a freak, they say I've lost my mind
But I know, I've never seen so clearly
When I speak, they say I've gone too far this time
Which lets me know that I have not gone nearly
Bible thumpin' reactionist
And I'm proud to bear the name
Take out music, take away our lives
Jesus still remains
I wonder what will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus freak

This one, he wants to buy you rockets
Ain't in his head, now
This one, he got a princely racket
That's what I said, now
Got some big seal upon his jacket
Ain't in his head, now
You Marry him, your father will condone you
How bout that, now
You Marry me, your father will disown you
He'll eat his hat, now
Marry him or marry me,
I'm the one that loves you baby can't you see?
I ain't got no future or a family tree,
But I know what a prince and lover ought to be,
I know what a prince and lover ought to be....

And if you like to tell me maybe
Just go ahead, now
And If you wanna buy me flowers

And if you like to talk for hours
Just go ahead, now

I'll Carry You - Rebecca St. James
I know that look in your eyes
I see the pain behind your smile
Please don't hold it all inside
Together we can run
To the finish line
And when you are tired
I'll carry you
I can't walk this road without you
You cannot go it alone
We were never meant to make it on our own
When the load becomes heavy
And your feet too tired to walk
I will carry you and we'll be carried on
Share your burden now
I will listen
And when I'm weak
Will you hold me to the truth
That we can go on, for we are carried
Three strands of cord
Cannot be easily torn...
I can't walk this road without you
You cannot go it alone
We were never meant to make it on our own
When the load becomes heavy
And your feet too tired to walk
I will carry you and we'll be carried on
God will carry you
Before I say one more word
Hear me say I love You
My love comes from a heart that overflows
With love Who fills me
Comforts me
Comforts you,
With arms stretched out He said,
"I'll carry you"
I can't walk this road without you
You cannot go it alone
We were never meant to make it on our own
When the load becomes heavy
And your feet too tired to walk
I will carry you and we'll be carried on
I know that look in your eyes
I see the pain behind your smile
Please don't hold it all inside
Together we can run
To the finish line
And when you are tired
I'll carry you
I can't walk this road without you
You cannot go it alone
We were never meant to make it on our own
When the load becomes heavy
And your feet too tired to walk
I will carry you and we'll be carried on
Share your burden now
I will listen
And when I'm weak
Will you hold me to the truth
That we can go on, for we are carried
Three strands of cord
Cannot be easily torn...
I can't walk this road without you
You cannot go it alone
We were never meant to make it on our own
When the load becomes heavy
And your feet too tired to walk
I will carry you and we'll be carried on
God will carry you
Before I say one more word
Hear me say I love You
My love comes from a heart that overflows
With love Who fills me
Comforts me
Comforts you,
With arms stretched out He said,
"I'll carry you"
I can't walk this road without you
You cannot go it alone
We were never meant to make it on our own
When the load becomes heavy
And your feet too tired to walk
I will carry you and we'll be carried on

well it seems that its just about time for something more philosophical....
is it true what people say - that money is the root of all evil? Or is it how a person handles the money? It would seem that gaining money causes the "gainer" to gain more..... so if someones making 1 million a year, would they have a higher drive to get more money than someone making $30 000 per year? And if someones making $30 000 per year, do they have a higher drive than someone that lives on the street? Or is it just the culture we live in? Is everyone here just so engrossed in making money so that they can be the next big "success" that we don't realize what it is we're doing? We're a greedy, greedy country, peoples..... So i was watching a movie called "gods must be crazy" - it describes a small, isolated tribe living in a desert. The only things they have are the trees and grass and dirt. They didn't know feelings of hate, fear, or anger. Then one of those "very noisy birds" (airplanes) flew over them and dropped this thing (a coke bottle) - they took it as a gift from the gods - it was the hardest thing they had ever found, it could carry water, it could cure snake skin, etc.... but soon, a problem came up - there was only one of them. They had never before had something that they needed more of. Is this how the world works? That all our technology is leading us backwards? It seems like technology has made more problems than it's solved. But it's not like our world is going back now - oh no - we like our technology and money too much. Whats wrong with this picture people??? Were humans really meant to chase after health and wealth?
anyways.... now that ive got that out of my system......
i wrote a song today - its about heather's soup!!!
chicken soup on heather
can you feel the weather?
closed up in your crazy jar
do you even own a car?
Not exactly an instant classic.... but it's growing on me

wow... it's a year today that my grandmother died... on the couch behind me. So, out of my personal favourites, here's my song for the day:
Goodbye - Plankeye
It's difficult to say goodbye
After only one life
The rain will fall down replenishing
All of our broken dreams
And this burning tree
That's withering will bloom again
Would you believe
Goodbye, goodbye
Walk away, it's time to say goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Walk away, it's hard to say goodbye
Now all that's left
Pictures on the walls
Memories and stories
That are told
The more often told
The bigger they get
Create a legacy
Lest we forget
Goodbye, goodbye
Walk away, it's time to say goodbye
No longer can I hold onto this defeated change in heart, I swear
It's time to sing "fare thee well" to life as we know it
My voice it will be, you know I will be, yes it will be still
Something woke me up in the midst of
Dream and fantasy, halfway there
But He always fills my cup
And He lifts me up
Oh how He lifts me up
Goodbye, goodbye
Walk away, it's time to say goodbye
I never took the time
To stop and realize
That death takes many forms
Even while alive
Goodbye - Plankeye
It's difficult to say goodbye
After only one life
The rain will fall down replenishing
All of our broken dreams
And this burning tree
That's withering will bloom again
Would you believe
Goodbye, goodbye
Walk away, it's time to say goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Walk away, it's hard to say goodbye
Now all that's left
Pictures on the walls
Memories and stories
That are told
The more often told
The bigger they get
Create a legacy
Lest we forget
Goodbye, goodbye
Walk away, it's time to say goodbye
No longer can I hold onto this defeated change in heart, I swear
It's time to sing "fare thee well" to life as we know it
My voice it will be, you know I will be, yes it will be still
Something woke me up in the midst of
Dream and fantasy, halfway there
But He always fills my cup
And He lifts me up
Oh how He lifts me up
Goodbye, goodbye
Walk away, it's time to say goodbye
I never took the time
To stop and realize
That death takes many forms
Even while alive
