:( How sad...
warning - two towers spoiler if you haven't read the book...its not a huge surprise or anything like that, just a bit of dialogue towards the end.
"The Storm has burst at last" he thought, "This great array of spears and swords is going to Osgiliath. Will Faramir get across in time? He guessed it, but did he know the hour? And who can now hold the fords when the King of the Nine Riders comes? And other armies will come. I am too late. all is lost. I tarried on the way. All is lost. Even if my errand is performed, no one will ever know. there will be no one I can tell. It will be in vain". Overcome with weakness he wept. And still the host of Morgul crossed the bridge. -- Frodo's bit of a panic attack before the stairs of cirith ungol in The Two Towers.
how sad is that? he sees an army of orcs come out of the gates and they freak him out...:(

HEHE! I went to go see Austin Powers with Amanda, Cayce, Nick, Bre, Heather and Andrea and it was AWESOME! During the previews I was thinking "lord of the rings you fools!"..I kept waiting for it to say "new line cinema"..but it was always mgm or warner brothers..but THE LAST ONE! You know, its one thing to watch the trailer on amazingly high resolution on your computer, its quite different to see it HUGE AND LOUD! I can't wait for that. I so have to finish that book tonite! I can't wait till the dvd comes out, I'm gonna end up getting it too, I know I won't be able to wait till November. So anyway, I was all flipped out over that when the movie starts and the movie was HILARIOUS! LOL!! There were a ton of surprises that were really good. I loved it. After the movie we went to the mall and we reminiced by the pizza cutters and then Bre bought a can of corn (inside joke) which will be our sacred corn for this school year. I official own the corn and Bre is the current keeper, but you can buy a share of the corn and become a keeper. Hehe. The lady at the checkout asked if we were going to the movies.."I never heard of anyone bringing corn to the movies!". LOL! As we left Bre walked into all the signs...LOL. I think that our get together as we watch LOTR will be so great...can't wait :)

Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down
when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching n
uts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers.

Cayce just wrote something interesting in her journal about strangers. I want to comment on it.
What is up with girls in their early teens these days? They feel this strange need to show off their bodies and make themselves look as cheap as possible. If you say something to them, they just assume you're jealous. Jealous of *what*? Lately there have been a ton of abductions. They have all been young girls, mostly abducted, raped, killed and dumped somewhere. They just found another one today. Girls that flaunt themselves tastelessly are just targets. I talk to a lot of people on the Moby boards, and all of the people on there are my age or older, and intelligent. One discussion asked 'is the whole little clothing as possible trend good?'. All the guys (and the girls too, some are lesbians on there) said that showing the skin wasn't sexy. The more covered up, the sexier because more is left to the imagination. I think younger teenage girls are beginning to discover their sexuality and they don't understand the concept of less is more. The more natural your beauty, the better it looks. You can't walk the streets everyday looking like a cheap prostitute searching for meaningless glances and comments. If you do, you'll get the wrong reputation. "Nobodys gonna buy the whole friggin ice cream truck when you're handing out the popsicles for free."

When I should be editing video, I made a little experimental commercial. At this rate I'll never get this stuff done. When you get the cd and watch it, you'll prolly be like 'why did it take you so long'.shut up, ive never done it before! lol..its taking me long because ive never done any of this before, it takes forever to capture, i always play with the video instead of editting it, and i usually only do it late at night. but it will be a very nice little memento from 9th grade. ill do one each year. anyway, back to the commercial..i wanted to play with circus music, so i did.

this is a great story lol
I was sitting at my desk when I remembered a telephone call that I had to make. I found the number and dialed it. A man answered nicely saying, "Hello?"
I politely said, "This is Patrick Hanifin and may I please speak to Robin Carter?" Suddenly the phone was slammed down on me! I couldn't believe that anyone could be that rude. I tracked down Robin's correct number and called her. She had transposed the last two digits.
After I hung up with Robin, I spotted the wrong number still laying on my desk. I decided to call it again. When the same person once more answered, I yelled, "You're a jackass!" and hung up. Next to his phone number I wrote the word "jackass" and put it in my desk drawer. Every couple of weeks when I was paying bills or had a really bad day, I'd call him up. He would answer and I'd yell, "You're a jackass!" It always cheered me up.
Later in the year the phone company introduced caller ID. This was a real disappointment for me. I would have to stop calling the jackass. Then one day I had an idea. I dialed his number and heard his voice. "Hello?"
I made up a name. "Hi. This is the sales office of the telephone company and I'm just calling to see if you're familiar with our new caller ID program." He answered, "No!" and slammed down the receiver. I quickly called him back and said, "That's because you're a jackass!"
The reason I'm taking the time to tell you this story is to show you how if there's ever anything bothering you, you can do something about it. Just dial 555-1212.
(Keep reading, it gets better.)
One day an old lady at the mall was really taking her time pulling out of her parking space. I didn't think she was ever going to leave. Finally, her car began to move ever so slowly and she began backing out. I backed up a little more to give her plenty of room. Great, I thought, she's finally leaving. All of a sudden this black Camero came flying up the parking aisle in the wrong direction and pulled into her space. I started honking my horn and yelling, "You can't do that, buddy! I was here first!"
The guy got out of his Camero completely ignoring me. He walked toward the mall as if he didn't even hear me. I thought to myself, this guy is a jackass. There sure are a lot of jackasses in this world. I noticed he had a "For Sale" sign in the back window of his car. I wrote down the number. Then I hunted for another place to park.
The next day I was at home sitting at my desk. I had just gotten off the phone after calling 555-1212 and yelling, "You're a jackass!" (It's really easy to call him now since I have his number on speed dial.) Then I noticed the phone number of the guy with the black Camaro and decided to call him too. After a couple of rings someone answered the phone. I asked, "Are you the man with the black Camaro for sale?"
"Yes."
"Can you tell me where I can see it?"
"Yes, I live at 1802 West 34th Street. It's a yellow house and the car is parked right out front."
I asked, "What's your name?"
"My name is Don Hansen."
"When's a good time to catch you, Don?"
"I'm home in the evenings."
"Listen, Don, can I tell you something?"
"Sure."
"Don, you're a jackass!" And I slammed the phone down.
After I hung up I added Don's number to my speed dialer. Now I had two jackasses to call whenever I had a bad day. However this wasn't as much fun as it used to be. So I thought about it and came up with a solution.
First, I had my phone dial jackass #1. The man answered nicely and I yelled, "You're a jackass!" But I didn't hang up.
The jackass said, "Are you still there?"
I said, "Yeah."
He said, "Stop calling me."
I said, "No!"
He said, "What's your name, pal?"
I said, "Don Hansen."
He said, "Where do you live?"
"1802 West 34th Street. It's a yellow house and my black Camaro is parked out front."
"I'm coming over right now, Don. You'd better start saying your prayers."
"Yeah, like I'm really scared, Jackass!" And I hung up.
Then I called Jackass #2. He answered, "Hello."
I said, "Hello, jackass!"
He said, "If I ever find out who you are..."
"You'll what?"
"I'll kick your butt."
"Well, here's your chance. I'm coming over right now, jackass!"
And I hung up. Then I picked up the phone and called the police. I told them I was at 1802 West 34th Street and that I was going to kill my gay lover as soon as he got home. Another quick call to Channel 13 news about the gang war going down on West 34th Street. After that I climbed into my car and headed over to 34th Street to watch the whole thing. Glorious!
I watched two jackasses kicking the crap out of each other in front of 6 squad cars and a police helicopter I also taped it off the evening news!

What the heck!
The ISO standards body will take the unprecedented step of withdrawing the JPEG image format as a formal standard if Forgent Networks, a small Texan company, continues to demand royalties on a seventeen-year old patent.
The Register has spoken to representatives of both the JPEG committee and Forgent Networks this week.
According to Richard Clark, JPEG committee member and JPEG.org webmaster, Forgent's royalty grab - coming after two decades of royalty-free use - means that ISO is obliged to withdraw the specification.
"Under ISO terms, formally you can only have a standard you can implement on free or RAND terms. "Reasonable and non discriminatory (RAND) terms are typically published, and the same for everyone. It's clear that Forgent's claims are not RAND. $15 million doesn't sound like free to me, and Forgent is not publishing the terms of their licensing.
"ISO will withdraw the standard: JPEG will be no more," he told us. However, ISO itself cannot formally take a stance on the patent, he added.
"JPEG have traditionally tried to make it available for free; there is no JPEG LA, like the MPEG LA," he pointed out.
"Our current assumption is that the patent is not valid," said Clark. However Clark says that since the patent becomes invalid in 2004 (under the old rules, seventeen years after filing, rather than twenty years after a grant) there is little incentive for manufacturers to bow to Forgent's terms.
A spokesperson for Forgent declined to rule out litigating against manufacturers who decline to pay Forgent royalties on the claim.

HATFIELD, Pa. (AP) -- A candy factory worker died after being submerged in a 1,200-gallon vat of liquefied chocolate, police said.
Yoni Cordon, 19, of Philadelphia, was discovered in the vat by co-workers at the Kargher Corporation on Tuesday, authorities said.
Police said they believe Cordon had been working on a platform near the opening of the vat, which is used for mixing and melting chocolate.
Nobody saw Cordon fall and it was unknown how long he was submerged before he was found, Hatfield Township police detective Patrick M. Hanrahan said.
Hanrahan said foul play was not suspected and the death was being investigated as an accident.

Now I wanna watch deep impact
Asteroid May Hit Earth, But Don't Panic - Expert
By Kate Kelland
LONDON (Reuters) - A massive asteroid could hit Earth in just 17 years' time, destroying life as we know it, a British space expert said on Wednesday.
The asteroid -- the most threatening object ever detected in space -- is two km (1.2 miles) wide and apparently on a direct collision course with Earth.
"Objects of this size only hit the Earth every one or two million years," said Dr Benny Peiser, an asteroid expert at Liverpool John Moore's University in northern England.
"In the worst case scenario, a disaster of this size would be global in its extent, would create a meltdown of our economic and social life, and would reduce us to dark age conditions," he told Reuters.
But Peiser and other space experts say they are pretty confident this nightmare scenario will not come about.
"This thing is the highest threat that has been catalogd, but the scale in terms of the threat keeps changing," said Peter Bond, spokesman for the Royal Astronomical Society.
"If it did hit the Earth it would cause a continental-size explosion...but it is a fairly remote possibility."
The asteroid -- named 2002 NT7 -- was first detected earlier this month by the United States Linear sky survey program.
Since then, Peiser said scientists at the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) near-Earth objects team and at Pisa University in Italy have carried out orbit calculations to work out the probability and potential date of impact to define the risk it poses.
Their calculations show it could hit the earth on February 1, 2019.
"The impact probability is below one in a million, but because the first impact date is so early -- only 17 years from now -- and the object is very large, it's been rated on the impact risk Palermo Scale as a positive," Peiser said. "It is the first object which has ever hit a positive rating."
Scientists warn, however, that the risk rating has not been reviewed by the International Astronomical Union, which is the main international body responsible for announcing such risks.
Peiser said 2002 NT7 would continue to be monitored by space experts across the world, and that over time, these observations would probably erase the threat posed by it.
"In all likelihood, in a couple of months additional observations will eliminate this object from the list of potential impacts," he said. "I am very confident that additional observations over time will...show that it is actually not on a collision course with Earth."
But he warned that the world should take this as wake-up call and set about preparing for the reality of an asteroid hit in the future.
"Sooner or later -- and no one can really tell us which it will be -- we will find an object that is on a collision course. That is as certain as "Amen" in church. And eventually we will have to deflect an object from its collision course," he said.
At the moment, he added, scientists fear it could take at least 30 years for the world to be able to devise and set up a mission to deal with such a threat -- a timescale which would be woefully inadequate if the 2019 strike were to happen.

eh, oh well. im not worried at all..by then our technology should be enough to save us, and theres nothing I can do to stop it anyway. Don't they bring something like this up every few years?

< begin strange prose paragraph since other people enjoy reading them >
You say you aren't a follower or a poser. You say you wear what you want and what makes you comfortable.
Do you really?
You are just as much of a follower as the next person. You chose a stereotype and followed it. Who are you to say if thats bad? Maybe we are all supposed to fit in somewhere. In a way, we are all followers..someone started a group and got followers, its the way the world works. Christians, Preps, Democrats or Goths. It all works out eventually.
Perfect worlds do not exist. War can only end in peace, arguments are forgotten. Enjoy life while you can instead of talking about followers and posers.

I'm back in indiana now. We came back a day earlier than we were supposed to cuz it was like 50 degrees all the sudden. Yesterday was a good beach day and we went to the lake and got washed around a lot. IT was really rough compared to what it usually is cuz of a storm..but the storm never actually hit. We went to the breakwall in port austin too :-D And this big rock mom used to climb on, cayce climbed on top of it...I couldn't figure out how, so I got on a smaller rock. It was slippery. Me and cayce got a bunch of rocks and shells from the lake too. I got breanne's sand and water for her :) It sucks that the one time that I actually go to michigan, it rains and gets cold. FIGURES! Oh ya...we watched now and then, dumb and dumber and a couple x-files..trust no 1 and requiem. And we took lots of pictures...those will be in an album asap. Now its back to capturing and editing video : P . I'm sick of that...lol. I only have a little more to do though.
Now a suggestion to readers of my blog..all zero and a half of you. On the long trip from michigan to this place I call home, I was thinking of possible videos and things I could make...at mtv.com they have a contest..use their music clips and make a 10 second video and send it to them. If they like it enough, they'll play it...I need an idea or 5 for that! Its gotta be really spiffy though. I would really love to have amanda do foot breaking tap dancing for 10 seconds, that would be awesome lol. Maybe I'll ask her to. That's one suggestion..I was listening to songs too, thinking how it would be fun to make a music video. Download All is Full of Love by Bjork and come up with a video concept for that..or any song. I wanna do one. You know what else I gotta do soon? Nick's commercial for his bonfire. Hehe. So...gimme fun ideas..yay.
