Sacrifice the chocolate rabbit!
A group of Christian protestors disrupted a pagans' spring equinox ceremony in Lancaster, Calif., in March by blasting their car stereos to drown out the songs and chants of 300 witches and warlocks. What apparently really set off the Christians was the pagans' merry attempt at "animal sacrifice,"which they accomplish by fonduing a candy bunny. When a pagan leader yelled "Sacrifice the chocolate rabbit," the Christians leaped from their cars and advanced on them, but violence was averted. [CNN-Reuters, 5-2-02]

so when you die, you can be cremated, buried, tossed to sea (if you die on a pirate ship), or turned into a diamond. Could you imagine a proposal: "honey, will you marry me?" he hands her a blue diamond ring and as she gazes at it he says, "the diamond was made from my grandmother's remains" that kinda kills the moment...

i found an interesting freelance job here i think i may go for it, it's a "Home Reader on PRN, Miss Cleo's Network: -Largest in the Nation -Operating for over 10 years -Psychic experience preferred -Psychic training available -$9.00-$13.80 per talk hour" "Requirements: Must be able to provide a telephone psychic and/or tarot card reading (training provided at no charge)". how does one document psychic experience? and how do they train you in it? that's great. proof that it's all a scam (as if that wasn't clear already). you mean when i call, i don't get to speak with Miss Cleo, herself? :)

so i guess in thailand people own giant cockroaches as pets. Eww. that's just gross. i guess they get up to 4 inches long. eww. but now officials in that country want to ban them 'cause if they got out they could spread disease. ok, eww. could you imagine, sitting down to dinner somewhere and a 4 inch cockroach crawls past your table? they said in the article that if pet-owners would like to get rid of their roach they should call the department of livestock. eww, a bug that's so big, the livestock department has to handle it. and what do they do? come to people's houses and stomp on them for them?

so becky and i went to crossgates last night and saw signs. i enjoyed it. we were freaking out the whole time because we heard that it was a real scary movie, but it turns out that we didn't have to freak out that much. we kept wispering "i'm gonna scream" to eachother and putting down the popcorn lest we throw it... soyeah the movie is pretty good, it's not what you expected if you went to see a scary movie, but it's better than expected. it's more about the people in the movie when it's all said and done... i liked it. i will most likely purchase it on dvd when it's available previously viewed at hollywood video.
soyeah, when we got back to my apartment we just bummed around and talked for a bit. the conversation turned towards ex-boyfriends and i expressed dissappointment in the fact that i'd wasted a lot of time on tim. if i'd have known that he was a cheater ahead of time, i wouldn't have gone out with him. once they cheat, they'll do it again (sounds like we're talking about dogs or cattle). becky said that cheaters should have to register, like sex-offenders have to. then i said, yeah, we should make a website where women can go to it and search through a database to find out if the guy she's considering dating is a cheater or some sort of other huge asshole. we laughed about it and realized that even though a site like that would be useful and probably sucessful, it would also probably open us up to lawsuits... i threw together this mock site cause i thought it was funny :)

YAY! I have road runner :) but i'm still not hosting my page from my apartment, cause i don't want to leave my computer on all the time and suck my electricity.... so where it will end up remains to be seen. butyeah, i'm hella excited that i have internet access from my place :)
school starts next week, and i can't wait. I feel like such a freak, but i'm so bored not going to school. i have an orientation night this wednesday. i'm not sure exactly what they'll be doing. 'hi, welcome to gradschool. buy your books and get your parking permits' but i don't plan on buying my books there, and i've been informed that you don't really need to get a parking permit at st rose so... ah well..
i should have gotten cable at the same time. if i had, i would have been able to watch trading spaces today. but i thought that i'd go without cause i don't need cable. i have a feeling that i'll be calling timewarner back by the end of the week and that same cable guy will be here next monday to install cable for me and i'll feel like a freak. ah well. i wish i could just subscribe to one channel, for like $5 a month or something. all i really want is tlc. then i'd have trading spaces and all their other nifty daytime shows (a makeover story, a wedding story, a baby story etc) and then all of their medical detectives-type shows at night...
