Hurt

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

The Device Has Been Modified

High Point, New Jersey

Here are a couple of shots I took while up at High Point in New Jersey last year; proof that New Jersey isn't all smoke stacks and mini malls.

Cape Cod

Here are a couple shots I took some time back on my last trip to Cape Cod. I actually have a ton of images similar to these all taken on the same day, but the crappiness of my camera and the constant overcast washed out the color in the photos.

Halloween is Going to Suck

Get ready folks... It's coming... Be prepared for a million Jokers this Holloween. Oh shit. I can already imagine the annoyances of it all.

Anyone remember when Brandon Lee's depiction of the Crow was bastardized all Halloween back in 1994? Yeah, for those of you old enough know exactly what I'm talking about, well here we are again 14 years later. Take a good look at this face, because you're about to see a million of them come October... sweet Jeebus. Can we make this a law or something? Disturbing the peace? Something? God damn... this is going to suck.

People... Just stop it!

A Picture of a Tree... Impressed Yet?

Computer Repair cont.

Well it hasn't been a good few days. As you are already aware, I've been updating the hardware in my computer for the past few days with some bad results. I was attempting to replace my motherboard with a newer and "better" and more up-to-date model of what I was already using. So, I bought an MSI G33M, and frankly, it stinks. Nothing but problems from day one. Windows updates were littered with failures and errors. Even SP1 was not willing to make the trip into the hellhole that is my computer. I'm not sure if it was a compatability issue, or a defect in the board, but every thing I did produced nothing but errors. Now, I know what you're thinking; "But you're installing Vista! No wonder you have errors!"

Well, sorry, but try again. I took out the G33M and went back to my old MSI 945P Neo3 and, guess what? No problems. Vista went in smooth and flawlessly. Programs are getting installed with no errors. Everything is fine. But the question still remains; What the hell was wrong with that G33M?

Whatever the case, that is now two separate devices I purchased, both not working properly. The other was a new Seagate hard drive. Yeah, you guessed it. It did not work. I found it peculiar, almost impossible, that two different components, from two different manufacturers, both failed.

In case you are curious, the Seagate simply didn't want to spin up.

Well, at least I have a machine that runs now... still need a new hard drive though... damnit.
