Against the wall with no expression
There I stood, against the wall of foils, stone-faced. You either go to Denny's to get food poisoning or get into a fight. I know I filled my breadbasket more often than not. Several years ago, for example, the local health department entered and administered cold milk and puzzles to the children. They were exhausted and malnourished. Then there was the guy with the suspected "rock" in his leftern pocket. The crack pipe was later found in the bathroom sink. Hashbrowns have an affinity for biological material. Another time, in the parking lot, a rotted ham core was used as an instrument of blunt trauma on an elderly man. An ant problem also existed near the west edge of the parking lot near the sidewalk that sent one overweight local to the emergency ward with inflictions of the ankle.
That was from the news today. Now I have a shitload of work to do for this class I'm taking. It's beginning to kill my soul (thanks for the Shield of Thadiux B.O.R.T., it protects the soul just as you promised). The good news is that I'm not paying for the class, but my professor said he could give me credit next semester for free. That's good, but it means I have to try my "best" now, just like my mom told me too. And that's really all one can ask for right? Needless to say, my other projections and projects have been currently on hold, so don't shout in my general direction just yet. If only other people would contribute kindly.... (not aimed towards the readers of this site, neccessarily). Good day for now.

The news has finally become more and more oriented toward fulfilling my needs for surrealism.
Reminds me of how I went on an ambulance ride last night -- for educational purposes, you see -- and the first call was for a "man down" under a bus bench in from of Bobby and Steve's Auto World. When we got there, he was already coming to, drunk and sweaty, pants nearly down, shoes inexplicably off and atop the bench (in an effort to cool off perhaps, although he was also wearing all-black and wool socks).
Of course, he was a bit angry, not wanting to go to the hospital. "I'm fine, just gotta go get some water," he said shakily. When the cop came, then the guy got all indignant: "You just here cuz I'm a NIGGER sleeping under that bench!" Cop: "OK." Guy: "I'm fine! Get out my face! Just cuz of my skin color y'all gonna try to harass me here! Cuz I'm a nigger!" Cop (moving in tighter): "You need to settle down." Guy: "I'm gonna just walk home now, to St. Paul." Cop (right up in the guy's face): "All right, let's see how you walk."
Guy crosses street, walking halfway normally, towards B.O.R.T.'s neightborhood; cop walks other way, done with job.
So what I observed was that the guy only pulled out this "I'm a nigger" business when the cop came up. It was kinda like an Eddie Murphy bit, especially reinforced by the fact that "Trading Places" was a movie we watched at a Fire Station later in the evening (unedited version, much funnier that earlier incident at BSAW).
Anyway, with all your hard work, you might not have time to check this out, but it's worth it, as it's not available through other means.
Good story... I have a test this afternoon and I've managed mostly to sleep for a long time. Anyway, just wanted to let you know that your link was input incorrectly. You probably forgot to put in the whole address instead of just teh actual document.html.
I guess you did that on purpose? Thanks?
