Earthquake in Asheville

Just another normal night in Asheville. Nice day actually, not too hot. Then it started happening...

Our neighborhood has a lot of dogs. You know, the whole American dream and everything. About 11:45 they all started going crazy. Constant howling, barking, running around out there. I didn't think much of it because I was in the loving arms of two hot 18 year old freshman I had just happened to pick up that night. Then, right as I came for the third time, the ground started vibrating. I thought, damn that was a good one, but the girls started panicking. The sound of explosions filled the air, the sky turned a sickly dark purple.

Dave Bell came bursting into my room, his incredibly long dick glistening in the night air. "Holy Shit! We just had an earthquake!" The girls and I couldn't believe it. We all ran outside to see the neighbors house nothing more than a pile of rubble. Thank God for our sturdy, Greek built house. Water mains had burst all over town, sending up huge plumes of water and making the roads innavigable. The distant sound of sirens and terrified screens filled the night, as we came to grips with what just happened. We all ran into the living room and turned the TV to channel 3. Sure enough, a breaking news story.

The news caster was terrified, tears rolled down her delicate face. The fake wall behind her had fallen over, revealing another stage behind her, and a lot of other studio equipment which was now in pieces. "Ladies and Gentlemen, it appears that Asheville has been hit by an earthquake. We ask you to stay calm and call us to report dead or missing relatives"

Not knowing what to do, we all started calling our relatives to tell them we're ok. Then the four of us had a massive orgy.

*Disclaimer: this story is not true. The girls were Rachel and Scarlett. The earthquake was a 3.8 magnitude in hotsprings, we only felt it for a second.

Chicken George

Think Bill Clinton's scandal was bad? Image a naked Bush, alcohol, cocaine, and a chicken. Yep.

hi-ya fellers

Sup yall, haven't blogged in a while, mostly cause bloggin's for skeezas but thats ok, we're all nerds here. Not a lots been goin on, just workin n shit. We had a pretty kick ass game of sharks and minnows when Travis came into town. Turns out that tall drink of water can throw a sweet flying squirrel. I unfortunately cannot. Got into another tangle with my arch enemy, the first lap lane, the back of my leg is black but we'll meet again, o yes, that lap lane is going down. In other news, the best band to come out in pretty much forever, clap your hands say yeah, is playing carrboro on october 17 and williamsburg oct 18, so we should gather up some fools and try to hit em up at one of those spots. And whats up with sept reunion, send out some dates if that shits really gonna happen, I don't think I'm going to make gauley fest but I'll try to get off a night or two if yall can do some asheville, or maybe DC through the week, I need to go up there and check out the school anyways. Well, let me know and lets plan some shit. lata bitches

My mantra

Its hard to remember. It’s hard to remember we’re alive for the first time. It’s hard to remember. It’s hard to remember we’re a live for the last time. Its hard to remember to live before your die. It’s hard to remember. It’s hard to remember that our lives are such a short time. Its hard to remember. Its hard to remember that it takes such a along time. Its hard to remember…Its hard to remember…. Not much else to say, well except Modest mouse is my Zen Buddhism. And she is gone and I am here. Fallen paintings, broken glass, fucked up technology, just want to be loved. Find me the lucky one.

The Fifth Gift

Awesome 50's style sci fi story.

First Week of med school down... FUCK YA. And now I have an entire weekend of massive loads of studying to do. I just realized as I wrote this that this is about I'll I will have to say for the next two years. Well I will tell ya'll about my cadaver in oct. when we finally get it. I'll try to keep school related bitching to a min.

There are several very hot girls in my class but I havn't talked with them... actually I talked with two of them at a social event last week and they both were really annoying. I've met two cool people here so far. But I wouldn't say I've made any friends. I'm going to a party tonight, it should be cool cuz there won't be any other medical students there. I'm trying to hang out with people outside of the med school which is tough becuase thats who I see for 10 hours everyday. I met some law students last night but they were pretty lame. I also met this guy who was on my baseball team when I was 10, and we play tennis against each other in high school. He turned into and frat boy. I'm not sad. I went on a ride yesterday out in the country, about 35 miles through senic farmland, I'm hoping to start riding consistantly to supplement my literary diet.

of montreal is playing tuesday, hope they don't suck live, I don't have high expectations cuz thier music is super pretentious indy rock.

I hope you fags are doing well and chasin tail.

Ya'll should check out some of my Venezuela pics I'm slowly getting uploaded to this site:

This one in perticular I thought you would enjoy, its Venessa, you may remember her from my emails. We kinda had a thing going. We've been keeping in touch but you know... I gotta learn from Kenny's experiance.

An Alternative Religion

Whenever someone tries to tell you some bullshit about evolution, or abortion, or women's rights, you just point them to the Flying Spaghetti Monster. He in his infinite wisdom will set them straight.

Med School

What up boys,

I'm in class... med school is boring actually its crazy but rather complex. I'll hit ya'll with some more news soon. Had a great time when Dave and Carmin visited then Carmin visited again. Prob. the highlight of my first three weeks in Chapel Hill.

peace,

Ian

John you havn't done much for eternal reflection latly?

I love this article about online gaming, kinda fits in with the whole Singularity Theory

We're rich

at least, thats what this site says

The Singularity

For those who aren't here, the other night I was very drunk and apparently went into a lively discussion with Carmin about something called the singularity.

Here's some stuff about it:

Wikipedia Article

Book: The Age of Spiritual Machines: When Computers Exceed Human Intelligence

The theory's been developing for the last decade or so, and this book

The Singularity is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology

is supposed to sum it up (the other book is only a small piece). I haven't read either of these (especially since the one isn't published yet), so can't tell you how good they are, I only know this stuff from casual reading of postings and articles and shit.

Fuck a John

Yeah John was drunk, well he is drunk. Seven days straight, with tons of exercise, heart all over the place, but back on target. Heading out to Colorado tomorrow for Sierra club trip, not sure where I am but positive where I am going. Keep on living those up and downs are bliss.
