Indigo Children

Watched CSI tonight, quite interesting... It was about this 12-year old genius kid committed a murder and then covered it up so that it looked like her brother did it only to then say she did it at his trial so in essence they both got off Scott free...

In the show they called the genius girl an "Indigo Child" I of course wanted to know what exactly those are.... So here's info:

"The Indigo phenomenon has been recognized as one of the most exciting changes in human nature ever documented in society. The Indigo label describes the energy pattern of human behavior which exists in over 95% of the children born in the last 10 years Â… This phenomena is happening globally and eventually the Indigos will replace all other colors. As small children, IndigoÂ’s are easy to recognize by their unusually large, clear eyes. Extremely bright, precocious children with an amazing memory and a strong desire to live instinctively, these children of the next millennium are sensitive, gifted souls with an evolved consciousness who have come here to help change the vibrations of our lives and create one land, one globe and one species. They are our bridge to the future." - Nancy Ann Tappe (psychic)

" What is an indigo Child?
As a summary, here are the ten attributes that best describe this new kind of child, the Indigo Child (named by those who predicted it).
1. They come into the world with a feeling of royalty (and often act like it)
2. They have a feeling of "deserving to be here," and are surprised when others don't share that.
3. Self-worth is not a big issue. They often tell the parents "who they are."
4. They have difficulty with absolute authority (authority without explanation or choice).
5. They simply will not do certain things; for example, waiting in line is difficult for them.
6. They get frustrated with systems that are ritually oriented and don't require creative thought.
7. They often see better ways of doing things, both at home and in school, which makes them seem like "system busters" (nonconforming to any system).
8. They seem antisocial unless they are with their own kind. If there are no others of like consciousness around them, they often turn inward, feeling like no other human understands them. School is often extremely difficult for them socially.
9. They will not respond to "guilt" discipline ("Wait till your father gets home and finds out what you did").
10. They are not shy in letting you know what they need. "

Dad's Root Beer Bottles

Today at work Micheal had some Dad's root beer he got from Costco, being Micheal he'd bought a huge case of it so he had like three of them at work. By the time I'd gotten over to his desk he'd drank one and pulled the label off it, now Dad's root beer bottles bear a striking resemblance to beer bottles when stripped of their labels and un-capped.

I of course decided to take the "beer" bottle over to Chad's desk and left it there, hoping that he would at least get a weird look from a TL... Alas it was not so. He said he left it there for the remainder of his shift with no reprocautions. :( How tragic!

Song of the Week

"Baby Got Back" (I Like Big Butts) - Sir Mix Alot


[Intro]
Oh, my, god. Becky, look at her butt.
It is so big. *scoff* She looks like,
one of those rap guys' girlfriends.
But, y'know, who understands those rap guys? *scoff*
They only talk to her, because,
she looks like a total prostitute, 'kay?
I mean, her butt, is just so big. *scoff*
I can't believe it's just so round, it's like,
out there, I mean - gross. Look!
She's just so ... black!

[Sir Mix-a-Lot]
I like big butts and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung, wanna pull out your tough
'Cause you notice that butt was stuffed
Deep in the jeans she's wearing
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring
Oh baby, I wanna get wit'cha
And take your picture
My homeboys tried to warn me
But with that butt you got makes me feel so horny
Ooh, Rump-o'-smooth-skin
You say you wanna get in my Benz?
Well, use me, use me
'Cause you ain't that average groupy
I've seen them dancin'
The hell with romancin'
She's sweat, wet,
Got it goin' like a turbo 'Vette
I'm tired of magazines
Sayin' flat butts are the thing
Take the average black man and ask him that
She gotta pack much back
So, fellas! (Yeah!) Fellas! (Yeah!)
Has your girlfriend got the butt? (Hell yeah!)
Tell 'em to shake it! (Shake it!) Shake it! (Shake it!)
Shake that healthy butt!
Baby got back!

(LA face with Oakland booty)
Baby got back!

[Sir Mix-a-Lot]
I like 'em round, and big
And when I'm throwin' a gig
I just can't help myself, I'm actin' like an animal
Now here's my scandal
I wanna get you home
And ugh, double-up, ugh, ugh
I ain't talkin' bout Playboy
'Cause silicone parts are made for toys
I want 'em real thick and juicy
So find that juicy double
Mix-a-Lot's in trouble
Beggin' for a piece of that bubble
So I'm lookin' at rock videos
Knock-kneeded bimbos walkin' like hoes
You can have them bimbos
I'll keep my women like Flo Jo
A word to the thick soul sistas, I wanna get with ya
I won't cuss or hit ya
But I gotta be straight when I say I wanna *fuck*
Til the break of dawn
Baby got it goin' on
A lot of simps won't like this song
'Cause them punks like to hit it and quit it
And I'd rather stay and play
'Cause I'm long, and I'm strong
And I'm down to get the friction on
So, ladies! {Yeah!} Ladies! {Yeah}
If you wanna role in my Mercedes {Yeah!}
Then turn around! Stick it out!
Even white boys got to shout
Baby got back!

Baby got back!
Yeah, baby ... when it comes to females, Cosmo ain't got nothin'
to do with my selection. 36-24-36? Ha ha, only if she's 5'3".

[Sir Mix-a-Lot]
So your girlfriend rolls a Honda, playin' workout tapes by Fonda
But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda
My anaconda don't want none
Unless you've got buns, hun
You can do side bends or sit-ups,
But please don't lose that butt
Some brothers wanna play that "hard" role
And tell you that the butt ain't gold
So they toss it and leave it
And I pull up quick to retrieve it
So Cosmo says you're fat
Well I ain't down with that!
'Cause your waist is small and your curves are kickin'
And I'm thinkin' bout stickin'
To the beanpole dames in the magazines:
You ain't it, Miss Thing!
Give me a sista, I can't resist her
Red beans and rice didn't miss her
Some knucklehead tried to dis
'Cause his girls are on my list
He had game but he chose to hit 'em
And I pull up quick to get wit 'em
So ladies, if the butt is round,
And you want a triple X throw down,
Dial 1-900-MIXALOT
And kick them nasty thoughts
Baby got back!

(Little in the middle but she got much back) [4x]

Back to Work!

So I went back to work today after over three months off. It was a weird learning curve, thankfully though the tool I needed to use and the password I had assigned to me back in the beginning weren't jiving so I got to slack off today and catch-up on all I missed! WOOT for invalid passwords! LOL

Starbucks

So I finally got a different "The Way I See It" on my Starbucks cup today. Not a new one mind you, but at least it was different. If I got that stupid "generation gap" one more time I was seriously going to lose it on the barista. LOL

"The Way I See It #62
The living ocean contains 97% of the Earth's water, provides home for 97% of Earth's life, shapes climate and weather, governs temperature and planetary chemistry, generates oxygen, absorbs carbon dioxide and otherwise makes this planet a hospitable place for mankind. We should explore and take care of the ocean as if our very lives depended on it. Because they do."

Song of the Week

"Emo Kid" - Adam & Andrew


"Dear diary,


mood; Apathetic


my life is spiraling downwards,
I could'nt get enough money to go to the 'blood fed romance' and 'Suffocate me dry' concert.
it sucks cause they play some of my favourite songs, like 'Stab my heart coz i love you' and 'Rip apart my soul' and of course 'Stab me rip stab stab.'
And it doesn't help that I couldn't get my hair to do that flippy thingy either,
like that guy from that band can do.
Some days.....


I'm an Emo kid,
non conformist as can be,
you'd be non conformist to if you looked just like me.
I have paint on my nails and make-up on my face.
I'm almost Emo enough to start shaving my legs.
Coz i feel real deep when I'm dressing in drag,
Some call it 'freedom of expression' most just call me a fag.
Coz our dudes look like chicks and our chicks look like dykes, because Emo is one step below transvestite.


[chorus]
Stop my breathing and slit my throat,
I must be Emo.
I don't jump around when I go to shows,
I must be emo.


I'm dark, insensitive with low self esteem,
the way i dress makes everyday feel like halloween.
I have no real problems but i like to make believe,
I stole my sisters mascara so I'm grounded for a week.
Sulking and writing poetry are my hobbies,
I can't get through a Hawthorne heights album without sobbing.
Girls keep breaking up with me, it isn't any fun,
they say they already have a pussy, they don't need another one.


[chorus]


Dye my hair and polish on my toes,
I must be Emo
I play guitar and write suicide notes,
I must be Emo


My life is just a black abeyss,
you know, it's so dark and it's suffocating me.
Grabbing hold of me and tightening it's grip, tighter than a pair of my little sisters jeans, which look great on me by the way.


When i get depressed i cut my wrists in every direction,
hearig songs 'bout getting dumped give me an erection.
I write in a live journal and wear thick rim glasses,
i tell my friends i bleed black and cry during classes.
I'm just a bad, cheap imatation of God,
You can read me Catcher in the Rye, and watch me jack off.
I wear skin tight clothes,
while hating my life.
If i said i liked girls,
I'd only be half right.


I look like I'm dead and dress like a homo,
I must be emo
Screw XBOX I play old school Nintendo,
I must be emo
I like to whine and hate my parentals,
I must be emo
Me and my friends all look like clones,
I must be emo


My parents just don't get me you know. They think I'm gay just because they saw me kiss a guy. Well, a couple of guys. But I mean, it's the 2000s. Can't 2-or 4-dudes make-out with each other without being gay. I mean, chicks dig that kind of thing anyways. I don't know diary, sometimes I think you're the only one that gets me, you're my best friend. . . . I feel like tacos"

SNOW!!!

Even though it's March 19th we got snow today, just when I was thinking of pulling out my bike and getting it all ready for another season I wake up to a regular dump of snow overnight. :( I'm not very impressed! Someone needs to tell Jack Frost that spring is due in like 3 days!

Quote of the Day

Rufus: "He still digs humanity, but it bothers Him to see the shit that gets carried out in His name - wars, bigotry, but especially the factioning of all the religions. He said humanity took a good idea and, like always, built a belief structure on it. "
Bethany: "Having beliefs isn't good?"
Rufus: "I think it's better to have ideas. You can change an idea. Changing a belief is trickier. Life should malleable and progressive; working from idea to idea permits that. Beliefs anchor you to certain points and limit growth; new ideas can't generate. Life becomes stagnant." - Dogma

St. Patrick's Day

Do you remember back in the day when McDonalds served green milkshakes on St. Patrick's Day? This was back in the before-time, before the milkshakes were more likened to milkshakes and not to wallpaper paste as they are now. They were green in colour and tasted like mint, they were the yummiest milkshakes, every year I anxiously awaited St. Patrick's Day just for the green milkshakes, but alas it is not so anymore, now gone are the days of the green milshakes, the McDonalds pizzas and the toys that were un-crappy. But I guess that is progress for yah! :P

Hamsters Part 9

C.C. & G.P had another litter today, 6 in this one. So far so good, no babies are eaten, so that is very, very good news. She seems to be feeding these ones more and taking better care of them, so that is hopefully a good sign.

Thankfully I changed their cages on Wednesday night, I bought this cool new bedding that is made from pulp like for paper and has no cedar, pine, dyes, oils, etc, etc. in it so it's very good for the pets and for me, or so they say. But it's good I changed it as I can't touch the cage for two weeks after the babies are born.

So if anyone wants a baby dwarf hamster let me know and you can have one in about a month! LOL

KFC

So I've figured out the absolute hardest number in Lethbridge to get. You'd think it would be for like the mayor or the head of the RCMP or something... But no! The hardest number in Lethbridge to get is the number for the West-side KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken)!

I wanted to call and see what time they closed tonight, easy enough right? No! Not even close! First I checked muchmenus for the Lethbridge menu listings, it wasn't on there, then to the phone book, the brand-new phone book, and it wasn't there either! So I go online to Canada 411 and do you think it's listed there? Of course not! That'd be WAY too easy! They have listings for 41 KFC's in Alberta, not a one of them in Lethbridge!

I finally gave in and called directory assistance on my cell phone ''cuz bloody Vonage woulda charged me like $1 for 411 service so Rogers directory assistance gave me the number for the KFC on Mayor McGrath, we then called that one and they finally gave us the number for the West-side one, which we called, only to find out they were already closed!!! ARGHHHH!

Oh and BTW the number for KFC West-side is 381-0244 !!! The secret is out!! LOL

Pass the Butter

Here's a fwd I got, I don't know if it's all true, but it's interesting:

Margarine was originally manufactured to fatten turkeys. When it killed the turkeys, the people who had put all the money into the research wanted a payback so they put their heads together to figure out what to do with this product to get their money back. It was a white substance with no food appeal so they added the yellow coloring and sold it to people to use in place of butter. How do you like it? They have come out with some clever new flavorings.

DO YOU KNOW...the difference between margarine and butter?
* Both have the same amount of calories.
* Butter is slightly higher in saturated fats at 8 grams compared to 5 grams.
* Eating margarine can increase heart disease in women by 53% over eating the same amount of butter, according to a recent Harvard Medical Study.
* Eating butter increases the absorption of many other nutrients in other foods.
* Butter has many nutritional benefits where margarine has a few only because they are added!
* Butter tastes much better than margarine and it can enhance the flavors of other foods.
* Butter has been around for centuries where margarine has been around for less than 100 years.

And now, for Margarine..
* Very high in trans fatty acids.
* Triple risk of coronary heart disease.
* Increases total cholesterol and LDL (this is the bad cholesterol) and lowers HDL cholesterol, (the good cholesterol)
* creases the risk of cancers up to five fold.
* Lowers quality of breast milk.
* Decreases immune response.
* Decreases insulin response.

And here's the most disturbing fact....
* Margarine is but ONE MOLECULE away from being PLASTIC..

You can try this yourself: Purchase a tub of margarine and leave it in your garage or shaded area. Within a couple of days you will note a couple of things:
* no flies, not even those pesky fruit flies will go near it (that should tell you something)
* it does not rot or smell differently because it has no nutritional value; nothing will grow on it Even those teeny weeny microorganisms will not a find a home to grow.


Why? Because it is nearly plastic. Would you melt your Tupperware and spread that on your toast?

March

In March the wind blows down the door and spill my soup upon the floor.
It laps it up and roars for more.
Blowing once, blowing twice, blowing chicken soup with rice.
