And now the return of Derek's Pointless Commentary Please Please Please stop using the phrase "Time before Genre". It is a game and we had fun then just like we are having fun now. And to be perfectly honest, some of the players I meet now aren't a fourth of some of the players we had then. Anyway. Thats my rant and I needed to say it. Derek's Pointless Commentary is brought to you today by Six Flags Great America. You know why. |

Read me.
Derek's Pointless Commentary Presents....... Some words to think on.....if you know these words...it never hurts to read them again. "I can believe things that are true and I can believe things that aren't true and I can believe things where nobody knows if they're true or not. I can believe in Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny and Marilyn Monroe and the Beatles and Elvis and Mister Ed. Listen–I believe that people are perfectible, that knowledge is infinite, that the world is run by secret banking cartels and is visited by aliens on a regular basis, nice ones who look like wrinkledy lemurs and bad ones who mutilate cattle and want our water and our women. I believe that the future sucks and I believe that the future rocks and I believe that one day White Buffalo Woman is going to come back and kick everyone's ass. I believe that all men are just overgrown boys with deep problems communicating and that the decline of good sex in America is coincident with the decline in drive-in movie theaters from state to state. I believe that all politicians are unprincipled crooks and I still believe that they are better than the alternative. I believe that California is going to sink into the sea when the big one comes, while Florida is going to dissolve into madness and alligators and toxic waste. I believe that antibacterial soap is destroying our resistance to dirt and disease so that one day we'll all be wiped out by the common cold like the Martians in War of The Worlds. I believe that the greatest poets of the last century were Edith Sitwell and Don Marquis, that jade is dried dragon sperm, and that thousands of years ago in a former life I was a one-armed Siberian shaman. I believe that mankind's destiny lies in the stars. I believe that candy really did taste better when I was a kid, that it's aerodynamically impossible for a bumblebee to fly, that light is a wave and a particle, that there's a cat in a box somewhere who's alive and dead at the same time (although if they don't ever open the box to feed it it'll eventually just be two different kinds of dead), and that there are stars in the universe billions of years older than the universe itself. I believe in a personal god who cares about me and worries and oversees everything I do. I believe in an impersonal god who set the universe in motion and went off to hang with her girlfriends and doesn't even know that I'm alive. I believe in an empty and godless universe of causal chaos, background noise, and sheer blind luck. I believe that anyone who says that sex is overrated just hasn't done it properly. I believe that anyone who claims to know what's going on will lie about the little things too. I believe in absolute honesty and sensible social lies too. I believe in a woman's right to choose, a baby's right to live, that while all human life is sacred there's nothing wrong with the death penalty if you can trust the legal system implicitly, and that no one but a moron would ever trust the legal system. I believe that life is a game, that life is a cruel joke, and that life is what happens when you're alive and that you might as well lie back and enjoy it. " Happy Tuesday. Derek's Pointless Commentary is brought to you today by October.......It's his turn in the chair you know...... |

A moment of Silence
Derek's Pointless Commentary presents:
A decidedly pointed message.
For those of you that do not know, I work with children ranging from K-2nd grade.
One of the kids at the school went to bed Friday night.
He did not wake up Saturday morning.
They do not yet know what happened.
so..I am asking for a moment of silence from each of you.
His name was Evan Allen. He was 5 years old.
Thank you. Current Mood:  numb |

My Birthday Request...
Yes it's that time again. Derek's Pointless Commentary. Brought to you today by the 27 years I've been on this planet. (We aren't counting all the years on other planets.)
So I've had a lot of time alone to think on my birthday today. I did some musing on what have done thus far with the past 27 years.
Unfortunately I cannot find the proper words at this time. So for your humble approval I submit this following in my defense:
And now, the end is here
And so I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full
I traveled each and ev'ry highway
And more, much more than this, I did it my way
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do and saw it through without exemption
I planned each charted course, each careful step along the byway
And more, much more than this, I did it my way
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fill, my share of losing
And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way,
"Oh, no, oh, no, not me, I did it my way"
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels and not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows and did it my way!
Yes, it was my way
Thank you, Frank.
A bit melodramatic, I know.
I have a request for all of you, however.
Think about what you have done with your years.
And now, LJers, I return you to your separate days.
Make them count.

Request
I was talking with some local friends here recently and the topic came up about how many famous or well respected individuals get candlelight vigils when they die and whatnot where the average joe as far as fame goes sometimes gets nothing. These people are sometime the most important people in our lives so..... Light a candle for someone you loved/respected and lost..... Take 5 minutes and just ponder their impact... I now return you to your regularly scheduled rants about god knows what D. |
