That's just the way it is.......

Things will never be the same...

Tupac Shakur, or 2pac.... i used to pay out one of my mates for listening to rap... And the 2 people who will probably read this, hello guys.... will also find it humorous to know that i can sing Changes by 2pac, word for word. pretty much makes me all the much more dorkier.

But after working in a news station for 2 years of my life now, having quite a few major incidents in my life since then, and hearing my friends tell me stories that make me sick inside, kinda makes me think.... when did things get so screwed.

The only note in the song, which has been "changed" is the fact we now have a black president in the US, but alas just like the past few years, i still get asked for 2 dollars my the junkies down at the local station when I'm coming home from shift work, because despite their pockets being full of illicit drugs, they don't have enough money for a cheese burger.

Maybe that's why the overly paid CEO's of MacDonald's decided to make the cheeseburgers 2.15 here in Sydney. so the poor homeless people have to lose more dignity asking for another 15 cents.

It just angers me seeing the shit that doesn't even make it onto the news because its not "interesting" and yet I'll come home to a friend complaining cause her mum wont buy her the shoes she wanted today.

The world is one screwed up place.
But the story about the squirrel that can water ski. (to use a generic example) will still make us put a smile on our dials.

Sorry if i killed your happy interwebs mood.
Next post will be a happier one.

Love and shit,

House Across The River


There's a house across the river
But alas I cannot swim
And a garden of such beauty that the flowers seem to grin
There's a house across the river
But alas I cannot swim
I'll live my life regretting that I never jumped in

Thing's that make you go hmmmm


27th of July
1940 - Bugs Bunny made his official debut in the Warner Bros. animated cartoon "A Wild Hare."

1947 - The World Water Ski Organization was founded in Geneva, Switzerland.

1965 - In the U.S., the Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act was signed into law. The law required health warnings on all cigarette packages.

2003 - It was reported by the BBC (British Broadcasting Corp.) that there was no monster in Loch Ness. The investigation used 600 separate sonar beams and satellite navigation technology to trawl the loch. Reports of sightings of the "Loch Ness Monster" began in the 6th century.

2009 - I started a freaking blog.....


...cool.

I was actually hit my a great deal of sadness to learn science has proven that the Loch Ness Monster is not real, i like to think the things we imagined as children were out there somewhere, but alas.... the world is back to the basics.

why did i start a blog??

No freakin idea.

will anyone even read it?

Probably just my close friends, who will find it sadly humorous.

I'm sure posts after this will include something more personal, or whats grinding my gear's, but more now... i shall back away slowly..... scared of what i have begun....

Peace out and shit,

Nick
