I have a sixteen year old boy, at the rate he's going, I will not allow him to reach seventeen. I was perusing my readers digest when an ad caught my eye.
"Defiant Child?" Then it goes on to promise how they can help you get control of your child, home, etc. I was interested, until I read the name. "TOTAL TRANSFORMATION PROGRAM" Doesn't that sound a little, um, stepfordish? Kinda like a cultish, brainwashing scheme.
Of course it is. With a little electroshock therapy your son will be a model citizen in no time. ;)
Fatespinner is making a 'Gauntlet' videogame joke. "Wizard needs food...badly."Bingo.
In that game, you got to choose a color and a class. If I remember correctly, the colors were blue, green, yellow, and red and the classes were warrior, valkyrie, wizard, and... I dunno the other one. There were four.
When I was 11 me and my friend saved up 20 bucks and went down to the arcade one saturday and totally won Gauntlet. It took us a couple of hours but it was so worth it. I was the Yellow Wizard and my mate was the Green Warrior.
THROW A POTION!! THROW A POTION!!

Sorta like Home Eugenics Kits? Or maybe a Transmogrifier? Does it contain teratogenic substances? Nanites? Dead bugs?
Huh?

I knew a guy named Trey that was frikkin' ADDICTED to Gauntlet. He'd spend that much in an average WEEK.
Lat night, I was lying in bed, listening to Ronnie James Dio's 'Rainbow in the Dark' when I saw something odd outside my window. I looked outside, and saw about a thousand fireflies blinking on and off in the darkness. That, coupled with the music, made for a truly surreal experience.
You want surreal, Shiny. Those weren't actually fireflies... they were a coven of blinking christmas trees dancing about during their bizarre Last in Line cult ritual.
The first time I tried to sing metal at age 16, a guitar player laughed when I attempted Living After Midnight.
"What?"
"You've got a great voice."
"But?"
"No... it just sounded like Brian Adams singing Judas Priest. Could you toughen that up a bit."
And toughen it up I did. He didn't mean that I had a gritty quality, just that I was singing it with a pop sensibility. A girl back then also said that I Aerosmith like a country singer.
\o
/O say whaaaaaaaaaaaaa?

I had just shut down everything for the night(1 am, couple days ago) and was hitting the last light downstairs so I could go up to be. *CLICK*. 2 evil yellowish/green eyes are staring at me through the window.....they close......they open.....I assume a proper martial stance and approach the window......2 fireflys about 6" apart blinking in perfect unison. Friggin' nature.

I got a weird voice, too. Sorta like a bizarre cross between Peter Mulvey (of Redbird) and Brent Hinds (of Mastodon) with a little Marilyn Manson and Jesse Lacey (of Brand New) thrown in. I can stay on pitch, but the grating, buzzing sound tends to make people cringe.

Sounds interesting actually. You're a singularity, Shiny. I can only imagine that everything you do has a very specific and inspired footprint.
I've actually developed a great singing voice, if I do say so myself and I did so I guess I does. In most of its guises it has a quality that everyone likes and has won me small measures of meaningless acclaim. That and a buck fifty'll get me a ride on the subway.
HOLY DIVER, YOU'VE BEEN DOWN TOO LONG IN THE MIDNIGHT SEA, OH CAN'T YOU SEE WHAT I MEAN...between the velvet lies,
there's a truth as hard as steel.
The vision never dies,
life's a neverending wheel...
or something.
RRRIDE THE TIGER, YOU CAN SEE HIS STRIPES BUT YOU KNOW HE'S MEAN!
I think that's what it says. Sounds like something RJD would say anyway.

I'm a singularity? You mean I can bend light towards myself? And suck up galaxies? Dude...
I'm a singularity? You mean I can bend light towards myself? And suck up galaxies? Dude...The next Hollywood blockbuster will thus be The Fantastic Four and the ascent of Mister Shiny. But who should play the galaxy-devouring, raspy-voiced mega-villain? Stay tuned...

I was at Busch Gardens in Tampa. There was a herd of 10 elephants there. I got up on a plastic escarpment/boulder and did the Tarzan yell. They all lifted up their trunks and started trumpeting at me. It was awesome. I never knew they would do that.
Everybody thought it was part of the show. I guess it was.
Last time I was at Busch Gardens in Tampa, I was standing in front of the herd of elephants exhibit and suddenly I heard someone doing the Tarzan yell. I looked up, and it was a guy standing up on the skyride, doing the tarzan so everyone would look up.
Then he dropped trow and mooned the entire park, including the elephants. Sometimes rides and free beer do not mix well.

A little over a week ago, my friend called me and wanted to form a band. Just a little something something in the garage, screwing around, nothing serious.
We talked about other people we knew that we could get over on a semi-regular basis to play with.
Then the subject of what we would call ourselves came up.
My friend suggested we name our little group "Dr. Coleslaw"
. . .
I had second thoughts about forming Dr. Coleslaw. I still have not played with my friend. I don't see it happening in the near future.

Another time when I was at Busch Gardens, my two year old daughter and I were standing at the Lion exhibit when an ibis flew into the enclosure. The lioness pounced and the next thing you know there were blood soaked feathers everywhere. The young ladies at the glass wall all freaked out, screaming and crying like it was their mom in there. My daughter just looked at me and said matter-of-factly, 'Lion eat pink birdie'. It was an awesome display of feline prowess.

That wasn't me, man.

When you've gone about things all wrong,
Bury them here,
With the lifetime you would never regret.
In savoring sleep,
What do you mean I toss and turn everywhere?
I'll miss you when you're gone,
In pretending that you meant the world to me.
With that you'd call me a liar,
And in the making mistakes,
You'll rest incomplete.
I'll be home in graver mistakes,
Dear mom and dad,
I'll write you in this letter,
"I'll be moving on".
That states when the new day's begun,
Forget your son when he's out on his own.
When the hand reads 7:30,
And your night begins to sink in the short but faster fall.
Anxious but calm retort to a mirror that frames your face,
Baring the finest swell.
When the day begins to break,
Like the tears that run across your cheek.
Stand straight and imagine you then,
In the things and the way they could have been,
When the thoughts they race across your chin,
Here in the Neverend.
I'll be home in graver mistakes,
Dear mom and dad,
I'll write you in this letter,
"I'll be moving on".
That states when the new day's begun,
Forget your son when he's out on his own.
Point your gun in another direction,
Now that you've cried yourself to sleep.
Point your gun in another direction,
Now that you've cried yourself to sleep,
Here in there after the fire.
Before you walk home, peace and figuring will he be home again?
Signal loss and stereo with wide open windows,
Will she be waiting for you, the sounds surround the overpass,
With severed arm placement when the day's dark, old and dead?
A dead man against you, we'll write her a letter with long time passing.
I'll be home in graver mistakes,
Dear mom and dad,
I'll write you in this letter,
"I'll be moving on".
That states when the new day's begun,
Forget your son when he's out on his own.
Point your gun in another direction,
Now that you've cried yourself to sleep.
Point your gun in another direction,
Now that you've cried yourself to sleep,
Here in there after the fire.
After the fire...
I'll be home to say I love you, and I'll be moving on.
