I hate to say it, but it's time someone gathered up all the admin staff from our university, put them in a circle and just shoot them all in the head, one by one. Of course we'd have to tie them up so that they couldn't get away. But it would be slowly, so they could all see what's coming.
Then their immediate family members should be bound and have weights attached to them and then proceed to be dumped in a deep body of water.
Fuckwits, fuckwits, fuckwits, fuckwits, fuckwits!!!
I can sweep pick like mad fiend now (provided, I warm up)!
Enjoy!

All I Know
Just finished The Fountainhead and Angels & Demons before uni started! Hooray! Now that means I should be able to update more often and fit some more guitar in.
The Fountainhead was good, incredibly intellectual to almost a fault. I had to read some passages twice in order to get some proper meaning from it. But it was enjoyable none the less.
Angels & Demons was just SPECTACULAR. Again Dan Brown has shown how to right a novel which rides a climax from start to finish. The twists and turns in it were even crazier than The Da Vinci Code. I can't wait to read more of his books.
But something troubling me is that when I read now, sometimes my eyes trick me and I see words that aren't there for some strange reason. Probably from lack of reading off actual pages for a long time! Hopefully it'll go away.
At the moment I'm trying to pick up Eric Johnson's Cliffs Of Dover. Absolutely stunning song. The hybrid picked intro is pure genius and I'm going to have to steal it now!
Nothing new to report, have a nice day folks!

The Wrong Thing
As you all may well know, I was in Sydney last week. This time we took the train, and it was my first ride on the interstate CountryLink network. It's a great service, the people are friendly, but I really hate that it's so damn slow!! It takes 4.5 hours for a trip that by car can be done in 2.5 hours! If we had a bullet train network, we'd be sitting pretty!
Speaking of, there seem to be a scary number of attractive girls who catch the train, I'd like to know why this is.
Don't ever go to the Labor club! PLEASE! Today was my first visit, and it was PACKED, I've never seen so many booner guys, skanks and girls with humungous fat asses. There were even fat asian girls!! I didn't even know such a thing was possible. I know a lot of asian women who are freakishly skinny by Australian standards, but when they go back home, they get teased by everyone for being "fat". But the women tonight, ewwww! I'd hate to see what happens to them when they go back.
It was a disturbingly surreal experience! It makes me want to vote Liberal, if not SERVE for them, cause the people I saw today were the people I don't want to help! But then again, when you're an elected official, you should serve everyone!
I really should try to become a better person. I should help people more often when I get the chance. Let's see how this pans out...
Have a nice day folks!

Probably won't post much for a bit because I have resolved to finish 2 books before uni starts. My timetable is looking fantastic!
Have a nice day folks!

Stay and breathe
Returned from Sydney a few days ago. It was alright, and stayed in a nice hotel right in the city centre.
I also fear that maybe my "joking" about agoraphobia may be semi true. I don't mind big open spaces, but I hate people and Sydney is a VERY packed place.
The other may be dead! I haven't seen the other online in ages, but he shall return in a few weeks, so there is nothing to fear.
I also fell in love...with a guitar and delay pedal I saw in Sydney. However the store was incredibly upmarket, with brand names and so on, and nothing I wanted was below $3k!! But on my return home, I purchased a Zoom Multi FX pedal, which I just have to say is absolutely amazing. BUTTT...I also purchased a flashy new Yamaha RG model, so yesh it's all space age looking and comes equipped with a Floyd Rose system. I don't know why I bought it, it was hella expensive, and I don't know how I'm going to pay for my school books now! My buyer's remorse is compounded by the fact that I could have had Kaki King's EXACT replica Martinez Electro/Acoustic guitar for damn cheap. But alas, this will give me a chance to practice some whammy bar madness, especially with the delay and what not.
That's it for today, have a nice day folks. What a terrible update! I apologise!

"You Cannot Hide From What's Inside"
Third Watch is really one of the most underrated Dramas to ever grace our television screens. Each episode is well acted, well written and packed full of enough action and tension to last an entire series! I really wish it had been given more credit than it got, but alas, the series has finished and I for one thoroughly enjoyed it (even though I did start late, so I may have to find the old eps).
I watched In The Name Of The Father again, a bit after 10 years since I first saw it actually! I have a new found respect for the movie and the acting. It's probably one of the most powerful films about injustice that you're ever likely to see in your life. Daniel Day Lewis is superb, and I love his acting style. I'd like to use his style of self involvement if I ever become an actor. I must catch more of his films to see this genius at work.
You know friends are usually picked based on looks. It's natural, we're genetically inclined to hang around with those with usually the same level of genetic attractiveness as us. I can't see how that should be right though. Does it give rise to a lack of morals/natural equality on a base genetic ground? You know what that means! That equality is a man-made concept! It's true, while we're still pre-disposed to thinking like that, it shouldn't be the basis of a friendship.
What I've noticed is that in religion it simply isn't enough for all of us to be good. It takes away the concept of good and evil. Someone has to be better than someone else. The saved over the sinners and what not. Humanity takes solace in knowing that some will go to hell, and that's more than a little sickening. There isn't forgiveness for all, so that really makes no sense. There's an ingrained sense of hierarchy, even when all the central tenets of all major religions are removed and it's scary. People should be equal in these kinds of things.
My poor fingers are scratched, ripped, chaffed and dry. Yesh, I have been getting insane amounts of guitar in lately. I've even had a few 10 hour practice sessions and they're a bit of up and down really. Sometimes I'm awesome, sometimes I just plain suck. I decided to put in a bit of flurry here so that I can become a guitar virtuoso sometime soon, just so I can make an instrumental called Joaquin's Trick Bag O' Crap! I have picked up the entire Harmonic Minor scale, and I want to make a classical piece soon. I also picked up Who Did You Think I was, by the John Mayer Trio and I tell you, at first it was quite tough because there are odd rakes and mutes and obscure flat picking/string skipping in places, but now I have it down and I'm happy. It gives me inspiration to write a funk/blues song with a brilliant riff. I've also been trying to learn some advanced Megadeth stuff (Marty's days of course), as well as the sheer insanity that is Cacophony's Speed Metal Symphony and it is not fun, not fun at all!! Neo classical is so cool, we need to add some of those elements to our music I tell you.
As mentioned, the Joaquin rate list has been updated, so for your viewing pleasure, check it out!! http://dropc.blogspot.com/2004/12/great-fun-to-be-around-you.html ! Have a nice day folks!
