Growing up is hard to do.

So I have this full time job, I've been working here like three weeks or so and I really enjoy it. It's tons of fun and they pay me to be here so who could ask for anything more right. Well this morning they passed around a card for everyone to sign for the C.E.O's assistant or something cause she has cancer. I have never met the lady but they wanted me to write her a message and sign her card. I sat there thinking about what I could possibly write to a person I've never met and still try to be sincere. Out of nowhere one of those crazy ideas came to mind, you know the kind, the ones where you think it is really funny but it is so socially unacceptable that you dismiss it immediately.

But then I couldn't think of anything else to write and the thought kept coming back to me. So I sat there really really wanting to write on this lady's card "Don't get F#@*ED by cancer!" and then sign my name. I even had to stand up and walk away from my desk and think about whether or not it was worth losing my job (as I almost certainly would have). In the end I decided that I should just write some pleasant little "hope you get well soon" garbage (garbage because it's totally meaningless, I don't hope she gets well soon. How can I, I don't know her. For all I know she is not even real) and signed my name illegibly because I was ashamed I put my name on something like that.

But I realized that I am becoming more responsible. I am growing up. I am losing my identity because it's more important for me to keep this job than it is for me to express myself in my own way. (Actually for me this is probably a much more positive thing than I just made it sound) My only consolation is that I can blog this and tell you all what I almost did instead of actually doing it.

I Google Image Search-ed "tightrope walking music" and I guess the question is would you rather be a lion in a cage or a lion on a tightrope.

JUST SOME GUY'S HOT TIP #3

Human beings take a drastic toll on the environment through their everyday actions. From releasing CO2 and other green house gases that are raising the earth's temperature, to ocean pollution and deforestation, the negative effects of humans on the earths delicate ecosystem can no longer be ignored.

The good news is that I have figured out a way to solve all of the environments problems in one easy step. If everyone on the earth were to take the life of just one other human being than the human threat to the environment would be completely neutralized.

Sounds to good to be true doesn't it? But it is, all that it would take to save our planet once and for all is for each of us to kill just one other person. Of course in many instances this will require some planning and careful timing, but together we can make a difference. Remember, the time for action is now! Stab your neighbor, Save the world!

Here is an email I received recently

Dear Sir/Ma,

I am the only Daughter of my late parents Mr.and Mrs. Linus. My father was a highly reputable business magnet who operated in the capital of cote D' Ivoire during his days. It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one of his business trips abroad year 12th Febuary 2004.Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been masterminded by an uncle of his who travelled with him at that time. But God knows the truth! My mother died when I was just 6 years old and since then my father took me so special.

Before his death on Febuary 12 2004 he called the secretary who accompanied him to the hospital and told him that he has the sum of fifteen million, seven hundred thousand United State Dollar (USD$15.700,000)left in a box called consignment in one of the leading Security company in Africa. He further told him deposit that he deposited the money with my name, and finally issued a written instruction to his lawyer who he said is in possession of all the
necessary but legal documents to this fund and the bank. I am just a university undergraduate and really don't know what to do now. And also I am a deaf girl.

I need urgent assistant were this box funds will be delivered to you then you will deposit the whole money into your bank account after retriving the box money from the security company and after the transaction I will come and live with .This is because I have suffered alot of set backs as a result of incessant political crisis here in Cote d' Ivoire. The death of my father actually brought sorrow to my life and i wished to invested under your care please. I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistant in this regards.

Your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded. Now permit me to
ask this few questions:-
{1} Can you honestly help me .
{2} Can I completely trust ? .

you after the money is in your account while i finalies my education?.

This is my reply

Dear Deaf Girl,

I could possibly be sorry for your predicament. Please send a head shot and at least 2 full body shots from different angles so that I can determine whether or not I care.

I guess I just believe in balance

So I was thinking that there ought to be organizations opposed to PETA. I don't mean like cattle ranchers or chicken farmers, I mean people who want to kill animals as much as PETA wants to save them. Not to eat them, not to hunt them, but to eradicate them because they hate them. I tried to find such an organization by google searching "extermination of all animals" and "animal genocide" but I couldn't find anything so then I posted this thread on a craigslist discussion board.I don't really hate animals, in fact I really like cats and some dogs once I get to know them. But I am just thinking that if there are people out there who want to exterminate blacks and say they are no better than monkeys, were are all the people who are trying to exterminate monkeys?
