So I was about to fall asleep watching Monty Python last night so I just turned it off 20 mintues into it and ended up watching it today. It was a disappointment overall. Now I still need to watch Who Framed Roger Rabbit sometime and I can probably finish the fight club book tonight if I wanted to. On tap for tomorrow? Nothing, save for one long-assed post (as long as I’m feeling up to it at least). And who knows, if I’m in a good mood I might update the useless information too while I’m at it.

Welp, like well. Not a little child of an animal welp, but saying well like a redneck. Welp, my shockbox has been put together for about 3 days and it still doesn’t work. I have messed around with it, burnt myself with the soldering iron 7 times (those things are…you know, real hot.). It hurt like hell (ha ha..hell…fiery hell..ha ha…). I figured out that I had the power connections in backwards, and two lights caught on fire. So I fixed that. I switched two resistors around, and a transistor around, so now the relay and lights work. One problem: When I turn it on, it shocks, but not very much. Only about 2 volts. The lights stay on after you turn it off, as well. Have no fear though: Right at the end of class, me and Ulsenheimer (my electronics teacher.) was enlightened that the transformer was in backwards. What does a transformer do? It steps up the voltage. It changes the 18 volts total of two nine volt batteries into 120 volts. 120 volts…that’s a shitlode. Well, if you have a transformer in backwards…well, it steps the voltage down. 2 volts. That’s why it doesn’t shock good, and may be the reason why the lights stay on after I turn the switch off. Anyway…Kenneth got his shock box working today…I wanted to pick it up…so I did. Be afraid. Be very afraid. When I picked it up, It sent 120 volts through me…it hurt like HELL. I could feel it run up my arm, around my neck, and back through the other arm. It hurt worse than being shocked from an electrical outlet (yes…I’ve did that many times.). It was awesome, though. To show Ulsenheimer that your shock box works, you have to demonstrate it…on yourself. So on Monday, when I have enough time to switch the transformer, I will get the shit shocked out of me again. I can’t wait… And Matt….quit yer whining. I make $6.65 per hour, but my average paycheck November through March is about $70-$150 bucks. Usually $90. You think you’re low on money? Me too…it sucks. Soon, I’ll be working more, so I’ll get more money…but remember, you’re not the only one. And yeah, King is the “king” of food jobs…I hate food. But it’s really the only plentiful job open that’s easy to get hired with, so we gotta ride it out. I’ll try to take a picture of my shockbox, by the way…or perhaps a movie with the digital camera. You’ll get to watch me, David, and Jeremy shock the shit out of each other on camera. Woo-hoo! Goodnight and Godspeed.

oh nevermind. the only time i am up and at them, i cant get to the computer. its really taking time away from my usual computer activitys, but it will be resolved in a few days. what do you do when someone keeps stealing your things? you have told this person to stop. and it happens agai.. bwahahahaha.. well thats funny. i just went to get my door and there are two jahova’s witnesses there. its funny because its someing ive seen on tv(usally being made fun of) and it happened in real life. thats funny. oh what was i saying? oh never you mind. let me leave you with this silly web pagedisplaying the barnical on the ship that is the internet

and a haircut. I finally got a haircut again. It had been two or so months since the last one (which was two or so months from the one before that) so needless to say I was really needing it. I have found that my hair grows at roughly 1/2″ a month, so it was an inch or so longer than I like it when I got it cut. If I had long hair, that wouldn’t matter much, but with short hair it is really noticable. Now since it is a lot shorter, I think I may spike it up sometimes just to see how I like it, but in any case. It is 10:15 and I still need to watch two movies tonight. I have borrowed Monty Python and the Holy Grail DVD from Nick and also have borrowed the VHS of Who Framed Rodger Rabbit from Jeremy. I figure I’ll watch Monty Python first and then lug the VCR from the living room into my room to watch the other one. I hate watching movies in the den/living room/whatever the hell it is techincally called. And I remembered to register for the SAT, also. And my dog killed two baby rabbits yesterday, but that story is for another day. Oh yeah, and they finally kicked off the most hated person on Survivor tonight. Took them damn long enough.

Matt, I must congradulate you, you managed to write a rambling, longer than normal (for you) post! Now granted, it doesn’t come anywhere near what some of the other posts we’ve been writing lately, but still, he gave it a shot. Keep trying matt, maybe you’ll be able to write a 10k word post like me one day. However first, probably saturday, I’m going to ahve to match ben’s 10k post to regain dignity after he trumped my trump card post by almost doubling the word count. Till later.
