THE GOLDEN COMPASS (PLEASE READ OR YOUR BRAIN WILL ASSPLODE!)

Ok I was going to let this slide, be tolerant and not say anything. But this is the third time I've recieved this and honestly I'm about to go out of my skull.

Yes this book was written by an atheist, Phillip Pullman. No it wasn't written as a rebuttal to C.S. Lewis's Narnia series. Yes Pullman did not care for Lewis's take on fantasy. You know who else didn't? J.R.R Tolkein. OOOOooooo. Yes Pullman does involve religious zealouts and a "Church" like order as the main villians of the sto… Continue

"Becalmed" . . . or "The fight last night"

A breeze picked up the afternoon before. It rustled the sails in a way to warn the captain that a storm approached. Dark clouds on the horizon appeared; the enemy marched on the vessel. Tempest was that general, a mad fiend, bent on havoc and self destruction. No quarter was to be given, no prisoners to take, a simple chaotic force to assail the captain and his crew. Dark and ugly it brewed that afternoon, promising a night of terror and defiance.

Kit

He was our "mysterious" Uncle. He was WWII fighter pilot. Toured Europe and traveled Spain seeking our family heritage. He was a drinker, a smoker, a gambler and a womanizer. He was the man all the little homies wanted to be like. He was an adventurer and he lived life. He really lived it. As I spoke to my father about him and he told me all the stories he heard and saw. This was a person I probably should have got to know, so that I could learn to live my life a little like him. Last year my

On meeting celebrities.

Recently surfing the myspace or the "verse" as the case was in this, I found myself wanting to have a celebrity for a "friend".


Here's what I wrote. I'm just so damn impressed with myself but will get to that in a bit.


"Sitting here trying to come up with some witty; clever little trifle to humor you enough to be genuinely interested in a request from me to be your "friend" whatever. We're not friends, I don't know you intimatley or otherwise, but I would like to be added on you

I really find that I don't fare well with the kick-in-the-pants thing. I really have to coax myself like my psyche is a frightened bunny or something. I tried many years of kick-in-the-pants and only recently started getting results with the coaxing-bunny approach.

Just a personal observation, but I find that if I'm trying to encourage myself to be productive and achieve the things I want or plan, yelling at myself is distinctly counterproductive. Maybe this sort of cheesy sensitive shit is frowned upon in a Warren Ellis community, but I must say that being gentle and accepting of myself, and taking small achievements one at a time, actually causes me to come closer to the level of productivity that I want to see in myself.

Just an observation.

Hah, I always feel like the rebel when I speak kindly in Warren Ellis communities, because people here seem to like ALL CAPS and including "fucking" whenever something seems too sentimental.

Really? That blog post was meant to be funny? Because it seems dead serious to me.

I was just checking out your blog posts after receiving your friend request and it was like, "HEY YOU! FUCK YOU!" and I was like, emmm... if you say so.

So, uh... so you seem like a... like a pretty angry person. So uh... how does it feel to be a pretty angry person?

What an awesomely great start to our budding friendship here on Telephoning.

haha, which is my sister.

That's funny, instead I feel unimpressed and slightly irritated at being told how I should feel about your hypocrisy.

Would that "similar interest" happen to be Warren Ellis' writing? Because in that case... everyone here fits that ticket.
