Movie, request and startling things

Posted on by

Went out and saw Ocean’s Eleven with Jared and Tony, and I have to say that it’s a good movie. Go see it, it’s worth your $6.50. Hell, invite me along and I’ll see it again 😉 Went and got coffee afterwards, and saw a bunch of phs peepz … see paragraph 3 for this part. Then chilled downtown for a while before Tony got cold and everyone left. It was a good night.

Request time: I need a few things from the many, many people who read my site so often [cough]. First off, I’d like a nice, shiney new top banner. Busy is bad in this case, sleek and cool is very good. Help? Secondly, I would like people to submit articles. Anything. Any old peice of rubbish is perfectly fine — send it to me, and if it doesn’t suck, it will go up. And, to top of those two, a few miscellaneous things that have been bugging me: my name has 1 ‘L’, I am not a religion-practicing person of any sort, no, I can’t help with your dial-up situation, no, latency isn’t part of service level agreements, no, your website will be slow as shit because of all the crap you want, yes, I’m a terrible law-breaking driver and I’m losing my license, and finally, yes, a bigger paycheck would kick ass. Ahh, much better.

Last but not least, I found a couple things out. I am not Randal. I am Janelle’s ex-boyfriend. What a shitty label. How does one escape such a thing? Oh that’s right, as long as I’m me, and somebody knows us both, that’s the instant connotation. That sucks ass, I tell you. Please talk to me, not her ex-boyfriend, okay? kthnxbye. I really like 8 pt tahoma … it’s a tasty font. Also, TheFascistRag has a good update — although I almost want to be one of the people he hates, minus the whole soul-destroying thing.

Update: I found this hilarious flash animation running around on the net, and thought I’d share it :: check the diplomacy goodness. Also, having 21″ of monitor loving is amazing.

i think the real question here is: "who doesn’t want to be known as janelle’s ex-boyfriend?" also, if tore visited the old IBU posts, it is greatness. i am laughing. i think i have glass in my leg. two weeks til semester is over! i’m so fucked. love you
2001-12-08 05:24:52 – Burnz
Hey, guy with the site or whatever. Do you still talk to Janelle? I mean she had one hell of an ass. Put in a good word for me woud you? It would really be helping a brother out. Oh, and let me know if she gave all the jewelry you bought for her back. I ain’t an indian giver or nuthin’ but I don’t spend 8.50 on Wal-Mart earring so some bitch can just pocket them after she mashes and/or blends my heart with a hand potato smasher / a mixer set to "pussy whip" / or a blender with adjustable speeds including "puree" "thrash" and "utterly mangle until it is unrecognizable as a man". Any tips you have for the bedroom would be appreciated as well, I am sure you could guarantee me the big O with a few pointers and some colored graphs. You’re a pal there Riddle or whatever you’re name is. And this whole web thing is cute.
2001-12-08 10:39:08 – realbighead
yes, I have visited the old IBU posts… they are dumb, yet funny. I was a weird fuck back in the day. one week till semester is over! I so rock.
2001-12-08 12:57:42 – rand0m
Hahahaaha, you guys are a trip. Glass? From the riot? Burnz … first off, I hope your kidding, but here goes … no, not much. Yes, she did. no, I won’t, brother. No, she didnt: they were [i]gifts[/i] … [clutches chest, falls to the ground groaning]. No bedroom tips either :: I am fairly sure that I failed miserably there. And thanks, I like the web thing 😛 Tore, I wuv you. Despite your inane bullshit on the IBu, which is long past, I still like ya 😉 Oh yea … does anybody have any idea what the first incarnation of the IBu looked like? I can’t find it :-/
2001-12-08 14:56:50 – Burnz
Of course I am fucking kidding. Good god brother.

memory lane

Posted on by

I’ve been on a weird tangent recently, trying to dig up all the old stuff that used to be my webpage. Well, here is one of the original layouts: http://www.hpi.net/~ibu/archives.html. I think it looks pretty sharp. Reading through the source code makes my heart bleed [partially because of all the <-- comments --> ] … I was talking to Matt about it, and it boiled down to this:

TheFascistRag: you know, no offence, but your subject matter doesn’t variate a helluva lot
rand0m:: yea, i know.
rand0m:: girls
rand0m:: shitty life
rand0m:: truck
rand0m:: job
TheFascistRag: family
rand0m:: oh yea, shitty family in there too
TheFascistRag: you being “evil” “devil incarnate”
TheFascistRag: just funny that you could have cut a couple of these posts and they would have almost matched some from a couple of weeks ago
TheFascistRag: you are stagnating!!
rand0m:: HAAHAHHAA
TheFascistRag: your life is going nowhere!!
TheFascistRag: you are evil!!

Pretty scary that he’s right … I haven’t really gone anywhere, or changed much. I’m still me … yup, I went through my phases, but deep down, I’m still me. I would hope that’s a good thing 🙂 The not-so-hot part is the fact that I am in a rut. That’s pretty disappointing, to be honest. I hope things change soon. Wait. I mean, I hope things change for the better, soon.

On another note, there is a version of my website that is previous to the one that it linked above. I completely forgot what it looks like, so if you could oblige with a sample drawing or something, it’ll help. I just might start pulling things off of tape here @ hpi to see if we maybe have it, but I’m doubting it. That basically means that all the news posts and everything prior to 06/21/2000 are toasty. Yes, sad news indeed. However, if you want to reminisce about high school bullshit again, try out this: 10/11/99 IBu Topica List. Craziness.

web.dev deal

Posted on by

Well, first off, I big woohoo! Things were going south on the web.dev deal, but Jack, a co-hort here at hpi, called up the customer and set everything straight :: it looks like everything is on track, and the draconian development schedule has been eased. score!

In other news, here is a funny picture of me. Don’t ask me why it’s funny, it just is. And if you don’t think it is, there is obviously something very, very wrong with you. BEER GOOD. And, another quick update — the court date for me to lose my license has been moved to January 9th :: they saw that 12/29/01 is a saturday and moved it. I don’t know if that is good or bad.

I was going to post something else, but I forgot what it was. hrmm … if it comes to me, I’ll update.

Update: In speaking with a bunch of people via KaZaa & Limewire, I have found that my spanish skills have deteriorated. Might as well put those in the bucket along with history, math and science [doh].

hrmm…that picture is like the poster for why not to breed 🙂 (goes back to last post) also, knowing me, if i were speaking of friends, would the majority be male or female? i don’t think tore wants play from boys. also, the two girls going with us are gay, so, that leave me, the one straight girl…and no! i don’t know how many people, tore, prolly more than your room can hold, but they’re all cool. also, i have the flu, feel free to send money, or nice things 🙂
2001-12-05 00:15:49 – tony
any of you all read burnz’s website, at, burnz.ipfox.com… well, i just figured out something… if you look at the post from friday about abandoned children, and you then look at his latest post about a single mother and his interest for you, you could perhaps draw some conclusions… as in, he wants to eliminate this young mother’s baby, so that he can imagine having his way with her, without having the baby crawl in like some automoton crying momma, momma… but, i wouldn’t draw those conclusions, cuz, that would be like, gay or something…

a) i’m bored with my life, will someone please let me know of their own life, so i can live vicariously through them. b)some drunk guy was walking around the halls naked tonight. it ends up i know him. he’s cute too. c) boy advice? you people are all male. uh, i like some guy. we’re pretty good friends, but i’m apprehensive, and don’t like to fuck shit up…hrmmm…i know it’s annoying but i suck at getting boys for more than a night or so. d) who’s the craziest person we knew from back in the day? someone here wanted to know, and i can’t think of anyone. maybe it was me..haha
2001-12-06 05:32:45 – Burnz
Do I count as back in the day people? I didn’t know you kids until later really, but if it is any consolation I never liked any of you. And you can live vicariously through me if you want however I don’t know why anyone’s life would be sad enough that they could get gratification hearing daily masturbatory updates. Time, place, porn used, frequency, lube. But hell, it is there if you are really jonesin’. MTV sucks, pink and gwen stephani have nice abs but still need to be dangled in an inverted manner until either they get a wee bit more blood to the mind or whatever lower body fat they have slides into their ta-tas (never used that term…don’t think I like it)….I just noticed my old site linked to on here… huh.

weekend and some [deep] thoughts

Posted on by

I had a pretty good weekend. Plans on friday night fell through so I did absolutely nothing. [sarcasm] That was super-great. [/sarcasm]. Saturday, however, was much better. I went out with Steve and Dave to the mall, bought Wolfenstein [sweet game, w0o!], and then went back to his place and watched a couple videos, one of which was an “In Depth Documentary” called “Startup.com”. Most people would scoff at the movie, and think that it sucked, but I enjoyed it — it was a very good introspect on the life of the e-entrepeneur. Today wasn’t as good. Oh, and I got a copy of G.Orwell’s 1984, so I’m reading that [finished Rand’s Atlas Shrugged a while ago]. Oh yea, one more thing … CU Boulder won the Big 12 conference. Go CU 🙂 Woke up at god-awful 8:15am to go to church. Apparently there are people staying at my house [The Lawsons] … I don’t know for how long. Anywho, church, then food, and then another church thing at 6. I really don’t like church. Too much in one day makes me want to get violent. And now on to the three or four good things, instead of this rubbish …

The first of these things is something inspired by Janelle. Now, as we all know, I go out of my way to avoid talking about her, but this was pretty Thought Provoking. This summarizes her thinking: in this moment, why give a fuck about other people, and how your action might affect them? Well, you know, she’s got a point. Everything you do *always* affects other people, no matter how much you may not want it to. I abhore to use it, but it’s like a social responsibility, the whole looking at how you effect others thing. I hate that, too :: how can I be a selfish, pro-me-only person bent only on my own gratification when I always have to be aware of everybody else? Not a simple question to answer, and not one that I am conscious of — what I *am* conscious, of however, is what is keeping me in shangrala, and what is not.

Okay, here’s #2. What the hell is up with super-flirty girls? Man, you know, they sure are nice and everything, and they smell good, and you just want to grab onto them and man, it’s really great to have a girl like you even if she’s a complete airhead, but * Come On *. I think they think it’s some kind of sick game to see how ensnared they can get a guy. Case in point … I meet this girl today, and she’s really nice, but she’s dumb. [Note to self: that’s the first sign of doom. run away!] Sure, she was all nice, and kept doing all the typical girl-style “I like you signals” … like lots of eye contact, smiling, touching, brushing against, the whole shabang. But, of course, she’s just a super-flirt, and it all went nowhere. [irritation here].

Okay, and now to the tough parts. Sorry to be long winded, just a bit of things to say. The main crux of some stress right now is the whole web development thing. There’s a guy who wants an e.commerce site, and is ready and willing to pay $9,000 straight up for it. Problem, though, is that he keeps redoing front end designs, keeps scrutinizing the contract, keeps stalling. That’s what it seems like to me, at least. The main problem is that he wants it functional by 01/01/02. There’s a couple problems here … first off, there is almost no way to get a site up and running from scratch in less than a month. Especially when it’s December, and everyone is travelling for holidays [or in jail (gulp)]. I’m a pretty amazing guy, granted, but I just don’t think it can be done unless there is A) a lot more money, B) more people working on it or C) it is not from scratch. I’m really in a bind, because it’s almost to the point where the contract *can’t* get fulfilled on my side, mostly due to his delaying. But, both HPI and I need the money. I have big, big fines coming my way

2001-12-02 23:08:52 – Burnz
Can’t help you with anything but the sweater question. You have a kinda thick neck, sweaters look good on a guy like that. So that is the biggest solution you seem to need. Oh and you like to be warm because you live in frostbite Colorado.

GO BUFFS! Fight CU down the field, CU must win Fight, fight for victory, CU knows no defeat So roll up a mighty score, never give in Shoulder to shoulder we will fight, fight, fight fight fight! To answer Master Ha-Reed’s question from the previous post…of course i fucking rioted? it was fucking great. better than sex. tear gas in your eyes, running with thousands of other people down the main street. amazing. We fucking rock…my god! I’ll tell you my whole story sometime (it’s too long to type). Three light poles went down, a car was almost flipped, there were cops with shields everywhere, people got hit in the face with rubber bullets, there were at least 20 canisters of tear gas fired. we had so much fucking fun. i wish you all could have been here. after the riot, i went and got fabulously drunk.
2001-12-03 15:35:47 – cosmosmoon
Answers: Girls do not suck, we are goddesses. You are a retard because that is the most popular and easiest way to be these days. You have shitty life-sized problems because how else can your life story be turned into a made for TV special? Sweaters are warm and fuzzy. Muscle is heavier than fat. And, you’re a lazy bum.
2001-12-03 15:41:16 – Laura
Amen to that, my sista! And, Randal, gorls don’t suck. If you really believed that, you would be gay. You’re a retard? i had no idea. You bring your problems on yourself. Most people would run from them, though, so at least you’re dealing with them…hehe.
2001-12-03 16:01:35 – rand0m
sometiiiimes I feel I’ve got to [uh uh] run away, i’ve got to [uh uh] get away … 😉 And I didn’t say all girls suck. Just the leading-on type ones. They really suck. Yes, I do bring them on me, cuz I’m a goddamn retard. And I like sweaters. yummm, sweaters. And I’m not lazy. I’m a very motivated young man, aspiring to greatness [cough].
2001-12-03 16:37:01 – anthony_j_anzelmo
Hey, sounds like you’ve got quite the predicament. Since the holidays are usually stressful when staying at relatives, might i suggest this: take your laptop with you to utah, along with you cell phone… work your ass off on the contract along with the help of someone that knows ASP and SQL, (I know I’d work for some extra cash), and that way, you’re so busy working, you don’t notice any other stress, and at the end of the month, you’ve got mad cash to pay off all your bills, and the problems to go along with it. As far as the contract goes, just be up front with the guy, say, yeah, I can do it in a month, but at 160 hours, full time, that’s gonna be more than 3 large! That will tell you if he is serious about the contract! Make sure you get at least half down payment, in cash or check.
2001-12-03 16:49:51 – rand0m
yea, I plan on taking my laptop with me … only problem is that it’s not powerful enough to be a complete web.dev solution :: can’t run IIS & SQL on it with any sort of performance. I’d like to break up the project so that it’s able to be worked on by multiple people, but it just can’t happen – the whole thing is so interrelated, it would be impossible to code it and make everything work together. As for payment, assuming that it goes right, it’s 1/3 up front, 1/3 half way, and 1/3 on completion. Assuming that the whole thing actually goes through, and he stops delaying and signs the damn contract. I could *really really really* use $2k.
2001-12-03 16:55:34 – Master Ha-reed
in this moment, why give a fuck about other people, and how your action might affect them? that question seems to be ‘Thought Provoking’ IMHO because humans are naturally social animals, and thus have to deal with the pitfalls of benefits of being social seriously, if you could be someone who could do that (not caring about others) 24/7, w/o regard to anyone else, in a fuck the rest of the world – sort of way, you would transcend humanity – becoming more like a robot and a god than any human and therefore, the rest of us pitiful little humans have to deal with things such as conscience and the need for acceptance, the need to feel loved, etc. etc. blah blah blah and we try to make a balance between having a sense of self-esteem, self-confidence and independence, and being loved and accepted and all the rest

hmm… it appears that either randal is using the htmlspecialchars function be4 displaying this text… or a string replace function to get rid of tags… cuz when i put in [rant] and [/rant] w/ normal tags (i.e. "")… they dissappear…. grrrr
2001-12-03 18:11:45 – rand0m
well, this is borderline theoligical, but you can easily transcend that whole human emotion thing by clamping down on emotion, and only allowing one’s own personal joy be the the only thing of any worth. $.02. Oh, and I’m not using htmlspecialchars, I’m using striptags() which kills everything inside < and > … it’s like that so you whores can’t destroy my comments section. However, a list of alternate [] tags will be up sometime.

2001-12-04 00:14:51 – realbighead
go the Stoic route. Just don’t care about anything which isn’t in your sphere of choice. Since it’s not your choice anyways, there’s no point in worrying about it. This actually does tend to narrow down your list significantly, although you do become a fatalistic bastard in doing so and stand a good chance of simply going altogether apathetic. It’s got upsides, it’s got downsides, it’s just like every other philosophy ever. Although, like everything else, the benefits simply won’t show unless you are truly core about it. That’s my nickel, since my thought is obviously more valuable than all you $.02 wenches.
2001-12-04 01:56:14 – Laura
hrmm…girl scout cookies, cheez shit and crackers, mountain dew…the good shit….indeed. tore, tore, tore. my friends and i may be road-trippin to santa fe at some point in the near future…i would like to see you. also, stay with you because we’re poor. will it work? who knows.
2001-12-04 03:28:25 – Burnz
Ha-Reed- Whoa there buddy. A little more thinking than was really required. I didn’t know we had degraded to the level of coffee-shop analysis on the State of the Human Condition and other nonsense. Tore- Same basic thing except with the insertion of the phrase "Motherfucker". rand0m- escape into chemicals or sex or work or some other addiction. Feeding a fix = much easier than real living. Try steroids, then you can lose weight and gain muscle mass while you in turn become nothing but a walking gland that is cut in an oh so foxy way. That is right, one paragraph, I don’t need to follow the parameters of this "English" bullshit that is so popular with the kids.
2001-12-04 08:30:53 – realbighead
I figured randal’s smack habit meant that he already tried that method… I was pulling at strings to figure out another way to fix him. Motherfucker. How many friends, Laura? and when?
2001-12-04 08:43:14 – The Disco X
Randall is such a troll 🙂 Tore, I say you make Laura put out in order to stay with you. If you are going to have annoying women near you, you might as well get something out of it.
2001-12-04 10:25:58 – rand0m
I’m a troll!? wtf? Oh, and the steroids route is cost prohibitive — I’ve already looked into it, and I just can’t afford it. Meth, however, is looking like a better and better option. As for escaping … I do that with work [see next post]. I’m with Disco on the putting out part. Especially if they’re all hottt college chicks. 😀
2001-12-04 17:08:42 – Master Ha-reed
Burnz, I dont know exactly what you mean by ‘coffee-shop analysis’ – granted that isnt going to win any philosophy prizes nor is my $.02 worth close to anything when it comes to a question that has been dealt with by a great deal many more people that r way smarter than i am. Regardless, I think there is a valid point there – do you know anyone who could truly act in such a only I matter non-social world their entire life?

Oakenfold etc.

So yesterday, I’m chilling here at work doing my thing, and Emily IMs me and says have fun at the concert. I’m thinking ‘the concert isn’t until saturday … [?]’ … well … it turns out that the concert was last night, and not saturday. So I rang up Tony and met up over at his place and then headed to Denver.

Showed up right at 8, parked, and stood in line for 20 minutes waiting to get in. Not as bad as the Sasha & Digweed willcall line, but still annoying. Got in, and it was bumpin. It was a completely different crowd than the S&D concert here in the springs :: Much more nightclub-ish, zero rave-ish. There were a *TON* of older & married couples there, which was a little freaky. Anywho, the music was decent — I think Oakenfold is overrated; he didn’t seem to have any insane abilities, and he didn’t mix anything that didn’t sound out-of-this-world spectacular. His style of tek is way, way different than Sasha & Digweed’s: a *whole bunch* of melody on top of a medium bassbeat. Different strokes, different folks. I had a good time, and I would definitely go again.

At the concert, Tony found Laura and her crew from CU. That was pretty cool. She brought along Matt Hix, Brook, Garret [sp?] and Jeanne McCartney. It was hella weird seeing Jeanne there — I don’t picture her at this kind of event at all; she said the same thing about me, though, so I guess we all have hidden goodness 🙂 After the concert was over, we met up at the Denver Diner and chilled out till ~ 1:15, in which time I noticed that A) Matt isn’t so bad [;-)] B) Garret is quite smart and C) our waitress had a very annoying laugh 😛 I think everybody had a good time. Got home and passed out around 3:30, then woke up at 7 to pick up Ben Chapin [Denver Steve’s brother] and take him to school because he had no other ride. So, here’s me on little sleep. Here’s to a good day 😀

Update: My left ankle is tender again [sigh], and my back is sore. Also, just found out that the tentative xmas plans in Utah are 12/15 to 01/03 … two and a half weeks? No fucking way — Especially not with a web.dev contract in there.

2001-11-28 13:35:37 – Laura
my opinion on oakenfold: i wasn’t looking forward to the concert due to lack of intoxicants. we get in there, and some dude buys me a drink and the people behind up let us have some weed, and it was a fucking amazing concert. then again, most techno sucks unless you’re fucked up. Also, Garrett fucking rocks, but you spelled his name wrong and Brooke’s name has an e 🙂 Garrett is also fucking gorgeous . alright, i’m going back to sleep, damnit.

and why it’s a good weekend

Posted on by

okay … wow, you know what? I start a lot of posts with either “so” or “okay” … right, onto business. Okay, friday night … did … I don’t know. Oh, that’s right, I stayed at home and posted on my website [duh]. Okay, so fast forward to saturday. Saturday was good. I spent the day with Steve [from Denver]. We went and saw Spy Game, which is a good movie, and then went over to his place and watched Firebirds :: a helicopter version of Top Gun.

So then I went downtown, and met up with Tore. And lo and behold, who was there!? Annie! Yup, that short little adorable blonde-haired blue eyed gal was at the perk. So Tore and Annie and I chilled downtown, and I finally got up the nuts to call up Emily and have her come look at Tore’s sexy body. And she did! We checked out that new coffee shop [next to Tequila’s], it was decent. Saw Laura and Matt [oakenfold-tix guy] in there too, which was cool. I got tooled when Janelle called my cell phone to talk to Tore … you know, she’s a great girl, but come on. Mad Gay. So, then after the coffee thing, Tore went home, and we [Emily, Annie, Laura, Matt & I] all went up to the Garden of the Gods Village Inn. Had a good time, and Laura got free pie! Score! We all left around … 2am? Drove Annie to her place up by the Chapel Hills Mall [which is a really, really nice place], and then got to enjoy a drive with Emily back to her place 😀 Dropped her off and headed home.

Woke up bright and early at 9am today, after a whopping 6 hours of sleep. Promptly ditched church and met up with Steve [yup, Denver Steve] and had a simply wonderful afternoon. Drank some coffee, talked a lot, chilled at my office [where I strutted my phat computer skillz ;-)], then went and got some amazing food over at The Ritz. It hit me again that Steve is not only a really, really great guy to be around, but he is also one of those valuable quality people.

While I’m thinking about it, I think I’ll put up some older articles, and maybe put in the archives section. Also, look for an updated sidebar, including the mp3otw, as well as maybe some other nifty stuff. Oh! And one last thing :: if anyone knows any kickass traffic lawyers, hook me up — I spent like 4 hours going through every possible loophole I could find, and only came up with a few small things. Hope everyone’s week is off at a good clip, starting sunday night 😀

hey randal, thanks for calling saturday, not go fuck yourself
2001-11-26 01:22:48 – rand0m
now now, sweetums. we all know the following: tony + tore = not a good time I value seeing Tore a lot because I don’t see him very often at all. I see you often. Consequently, I don’t mind if I don’t see you for a day. Besides, don’t we have a date for saturday? *kisses*
2001-11-26 02:19:21 – The Disco X
man, jumping on me wasn’t exciting enough to mention?
2001-11-26 04:08:42 – Burnz
Tony, it would help if you didn’t suck. Sucking = no one calls you. Randal…you jumped on Disco? *shakes head in shame*. You coud do better man. I mean we all saw it coming but….Disco? Why not Hix? He is into that. Hell is had a whole fucking room dedicated to that. I like homosexuals that I doubt I will ever meet. Gay burning time!!!!!!!!
2001-11-26 11:45:13 – kurty
Randal, give Dan Kay a call, (719) 635-3611. He should be able to help you with your ticket trouble. I’m going to be giving him a call about my 98 MPH in a 65 MPH here pretty soon (thank goodness my snow-tires were keeping me below 100 MPH that day).
2001-11-26 23:38:19 – Laura
the hottest boy in my dorm is now asleep in my bed…of only rape was legal…hehe. also, randal, the oakenfold concert is tomorrow night (tuesday), so that means you need to go to denver tomorrow. also, i suggest someone else drive because you don’t want to have wasted all that ticket money when you get arrested.

and why the trip didn’t work.

Okay … since I’m lazy as shit, I’m going to just post what happened via this aim conversation I had. Names changed to protect the innocent [or not]. … … prepare to laugh at me for being a dumbass.
rand0m:so I’m driving down to Santa Fe
anonymous:um hum
rand0m:and I’m just outside of Aguilar
rand0m:when all of a sudden the honda’s engine catches on fire
rand0m:so I was like “oh shit!”
anonymous:on fire?!?
rand0m:so I slammed on the brakes
rand0m:but was losing control of the car ….
rand0m:so I popped open the door and jumped out.
rand0m:which was okay for me
rand0m:problem is, the honda kept going, and sailed right off a bridge.
rand0m:onto the road beneath … :-/
rand0m:where this chick in like a buick [not sure on this] hit it.
rand0m:so … she wrecked her shit with my already-wrecked shit
rand0m:and I went down there [down the embankment] and made sure she was okay and blah blah blah
rand0m:then the cops showed up
rand0m:of course
anonymous:oh my god!!!!
anonymous:that’s a bit serious
rand0m:so the cops are like “well son, you’re fucked”
rand0m:so I go in for questioning, and the cop writes me this fat ticket
anonymous:and you technically weren’t in the car at the time…

2001-11-24 09:42:01 – realbighead
I knew I shoulda picked up the police scanner to find you… anyways, dude, don’t worry about it, it’s chill. My dad needed an excuse to get out of the house anyways, what with my mom’s dinner-preparation-insanity. And I was back here before 7, so I wasn’t even really late. Oh yeah, and good luckwith court and stuff… hope there’s no hard time involved…gimme a call if you’re bored today for any reason (this includes everyone), cuz I go back tomorrow.
2001-11-24 19:38:26 – laughing-n-NY
Just to share in the family joy of torturing you…..Ha ha ha ha ha. God, I am soooo very glad that I am not the only fuck-up. I can just see the disapproval from the ‘rents, and do you smell smoke from rapid wild-fire-like spread of this new "gossip" to the family? Ha ha ha ha. Also…I ask….why where you heading there anyways? Gina does burn a decent turk. Oh, I suggest moving. Far, far, far away.
2001-11-24 20:19:34 – The Disco X
So when is your sister visiting Randall? I like her already.
2001-11-24 21:43:48 – red5
OK, you scared the shit outa me. Anyway, "moving downtown" Does that mean downtown Denver or Downtown Colo Sprngs, cause if its Denver, Fuck yeah! We can get drunk together all of the time, OR im looking for a place, so we could live together, but you don’t like me all that much, so n/m. Sorry bout all the shit dood…The judge will be nice…Im sure……um….
2001-11-25 03:15:34 – rand0m
… sadly enough, my sister is right :: the news has already spread half-way around the globe, and everyone already knows and blah blah blah. But … ya know, I just don’t care. I was heading to Santa Fe to pick up Tore and bring him back to the springs so he could have Thanksgiving with his family [he lives here in co.springs, goes to school in santa fe]. As for moving … it’s a possibility. And sorry mark … I’m probably staying in the springs – denver is waaay to big to live in without a car. and I’m doubting any judge-niceness. :-/
2001-11-25 13:08:31 – tony
my last run in with judge boba fett went like this…. judge fett: three tickets in one year! how do you explain this? dumas (that’s me, pronounced, dumb-ass): i got caught?!?
2001-11-25 15:02:23 – realbighead
ooh, what a surprise, Tony’s rehashing other peoples’ bad jokes as his own. And it’s only Judge B. Fett… no one knows whether he is actually an intergalactic bounty hunter. Besides, all he does is read out loud whatever the legal counsel wrote… And while we’re at it, what does your sister have against Turks… admittedly, they’re a-rabs, but jeez, is burning really the answer?

hey tore, go fuck yourself

Santa Fe road trip

Posted on by

So I’m headed off to Santa Fe either tonight or tomorrow, depending on if anybody wants to come. Road tripping alone kinda sucks … so … if you have the desire to go to Santa Fe tonight, get completely trashed and come back home tomorrow night, let me know. Otherwise, if you want to go down early tomorrow morning and skip the getting bombed part and then come home tomorrow night, likewise, lemme know.

Had one of those real conversations with Emily last night … wow. Boy, that sure felt good … like, not being stupid or being techy, but just talking about stuff that’s important [to me] and just getting through it. I don’t know what she thought of it, but hey, I enjoyed it. Also, I was talking to Craig last night, and we have come to the realization that MSN Messenger rocks. That’s some fat shit: application sharing, whiteboard, all kinds of stuff. And while we were at it, I realized that I really, really, really suck at math now. Simple calculus proved quite daunting. In fact, I looked over one of my higher level math portfolios and wanted to cry. I am dumb now, and it hurts to know that I have fallen intellectually. [sigh] I used to think that doing copious amounts of math homework was waay better than any english essay, but now, I’d write a full length essay instead of doing 1 hardcore calc problem. At least I know I can write. Oddly enough, I can program really well, I can write really well, but I can’t do math anymore. :-/ Well, that’s that. Let me know if you want to trip to see Tore!

Update: Fine then, you whores, don’t post any comments! On another note, I got those Paul Oakenfold Tickets from matt. Thanks matt! w0o!

2001-11-21 00:19:25 – tony
boy oh wooo hooo, i’m drunk
2001-11-21 00:22:44 – tony
seriously folks, i am drunk it’s about 1:15 am here in waco texas, just got back from drinking with cousins here and i am tired… unfortunately, not too tired to care about what randal spoke about. you see, i too felt what randal mentioned, and that is why i signed back up for college! no lie, i signed back up for college because i felt my mental powers slipping away. insert your ass hearted comments here you low grade excuses for college plebians! anywho, i think as one of the visitors of this here website i commend randal for being forthwrite here, and i suggest randal pursue college! yes indeedy! (belchhhh) now where’s that bud light (belchhhh)
2001-11-21 00:27:31 – Tony’s Fucking Alarm Clock
4:00 am in Tony’s Room beep…. Beep…. BEep… BEEp…. BEEP…. BEEP… BEEP (*SMASH*) Carlos: Well that makes me feel way better! Clock Disabled JP: Burn baby burn John: What the shit? Jean: THANK GOD… two days straight can make Carlos even go mad!
2001-11-21 03:27:14 – Burnz
As the other drunken poster…or person that posts on this site I must say that there are things to be learned before you lock yourself into college. While I can’t seem to come up with any but the most remedial sentences I say that before you can fully throw yourself into braincell development, you have to kill more than a few. The difference between knowledge and wisdom is experience. Now dance little monkys dance for me….
2001-11-21 03:29:40 – Burnz
Oh and good for the thing with Emily. You have found the other thing women are good for…they know how to listen…and some of them (the ones I will alllow to live) can cook. So that is nearly three useful aspects, good for that gender. I mean really, gold star!!
2001-11-21 16:40:54 – The Disco X
Lol, just noticed the "Y-pie" thing up top.
2001-11-21 21:41:29 – boredladyM

2001-11-21 22:39:28 – The Disco X
Gonna tell us anything or are you gonna let us worry?

Yesterday was Saturday, and it was also the day that I attended my first rave. I can’t accurately describe to you how amazing it was. The non-stop rhythm combined with a sea of dancing people in a friendly, no stress, everyone-is-happy environment made it an event that I don’t think I will ever forget. I lost Tony pretty quickly once we got in (after waiting in the willcall line for an hour :-/). From there on out, it was me, the music and the crowd. I had a simply unbelievably good time. Carbon is this weekend, but I don’t think I’ll go; Oakenfold is in Denver on the 27th.

My body is just flat wore out … I feel like curling up and watching a video and doing nothing. I heard that it’s supposed to snow pretty hard tonight — that would definitely be cool. FYI, I don’t know exactly when we’re coming back :: I think wednesday afternoon / night is on the schedule. I hope everybody has a nice, relaxing, not intense sunday.

Update: Okay, so now that I’ve been awake a while and moved around, I have noticed a few things. 1) I’m mildly sore all over … not too bad. 2) I have a pounding headache. 3) I jacked my ankle somehow. It hurts like a motherfucker whenever I rotate it counter-clockwise. ouch. 4) My feet have a couple places that hurt :: this one’s obviously from the dancing, no biggie. Send your sympathy and love my way 🙂

2001-11-18 17:36:06 – Laura
do you have dyed hair now, lots of neon jewelry, and are addicted to ecstacy?
2001-11-18 18:34:19 – rand0m
Fortunately, none of the above :: I guess I’m not a very good raver, huh? It was really weird … lots of people would walk by me uttering single word questions, like "Pills?" or "Acid?" or "X?" … and there were a lot of places where a group of people would just sit down in the middle of the floor. Quite odd. Whatever floats your boat — I had a good time.
2001-11-18 20:06:52 – Burnz
Sounds like everyone is dry these days. /me sets to turning the whole of northern Colorado upside-down looking for drugs. And you get used to the huge sit-ins and people making out all over the place, handing you beads or glow-sticks or lollipops randomly. You will however never adjust to having glitter thrown on you, and if you can get the name of one of those dumb bitches that always gets it in my eye I would pay dearly for the information so that I can wait outside her home with a bat and no ball.
2001-11-18 22:40:19 – marla
rand, I have the hookup. this is an interesting cyber-world you’ve created. Stop making fun of the geekpad.
2001-11-19 01:13:17 – The Disco X
who is marla, and why should we listen to her? btw randall, I had fun on my birthday, you should of been there, even keith got laid.
2001-11-19 08:55:42 – rand0m
marla is my sister in new york … I didn’t think she read my page, but hey, what the hell 😉 As for your birthday … umm … I very seriously doubt that it was as good as the rave on saturday night. It was fucking crazy.
2001-11-19 09:30:51 – The Disco X
Getting Laid > Raving.
2001-11-19 10:00:18 – Burnz
HELLLLLLLLOOOOO marla. Do you have a enormous mouth also? And your mp3 OTW is old rand0m.
2001-11-19 12:03:54 – Laura
yo sista got the m4d hookup? shiiiiiitttttt….hehe. hello, randal’s sister. in the tradition of your mom, you should promptly believe that i am everything evil. proceed 🙂
2001-11-19 12:45:42 – rand0m
I updated the sidebar with a new mp3otw and some links and other nifty stuff. and laura … sadly enough, too true :: you and my sister would probably get along pretty well — you evil satan worshippers bent on the destruction of all that is good are all the same 😉
2001-11-19 14:20:43 – Laura
Shake that ass, Randal! Also, CU is going to kick Nebraska’s ass on Friday (knocks on wood).
2001-11-19 18:49:17 – dopey dawg
listen up children! all you that think cu will beat nebraska, raise your hands………………………………………………………………………… alright then! booya!
2001-11-19 20:35:54 – LadyM
Yep, I would agree that the yapper is equally if not larger than Rands. And yes, All of us "hellion’s" are hell-bent on destroying all morality, and then contemplating it while high. I must agree with the getting laid > rave. oh yea, never ever equate me with the monsterous mother. So, much info on you rand…you better keep me happy.
2001-11-19 21:18:04 – rand0m
yikes! [runs to the nearest corner and sits down moaning ‘nooo, nOooo!’]
2001-11-19 21:41:41 – The Disco X
Randall, is your sister good looking? And visiting soon? Please? I have a new tongue piercing I’m dying to try out.
2001-11-20 00:15:52 – Laura
dear god, james…i just threw up.
2001-11-20 04:18:47 – Burnz
Sounds like sis got all the good genes computer boy. And Disco, imagine a woman with a maw that is by her own admission as large if not larger than rand0m’s. It would be like dating a jack-o-lantern for fucks sake.
2001-11-20 07:14:29 – The Disco X
That’s a good thing, maybe she can take it all, laura always just chokes and throws up.
2001-11-20 10:33:55 – rand0m
you guys are some sick fucks.

movie, concert and more!

Posted on by

Sooo … I can’t believe I did it, but I went out last night and saw “Harry Potter and the Sorceror’s Stone” … Laura invited me along [thanks laura!] and since I had nada else to do, I went. I am glad I did … it was a pretty good move, though I don’t know if it was worth my $8. Janelle and all of her friends were there, and I spoke to her for a minute; it isn’t so hot that the heartache returns so quickly [sigh]. She looks fantastic, if a little worn/tired, and was pretty nice … heh, I wonder what she thought of me and my lame-attempt at facial hair combined with a my monstrous mouth. Huh. … makes me wonder what anyone thinks of it 😛

On the menu today is … maybe go get some grub from not at home, chill downtown for a while, and then attend the Sasha & Digweed concert with Tony and Mike. If you’re interested, you should most definitely come; I hear it’s gonna rock.

2001-11-17 15:51:55 – realbighead
hey randal, wanna implement checking on the e-mail addy so that we don’t get as much immense retardation as in that last thread? Anyone who wants to hang out while I’m in the springs, gimme a call sometime between Wednesday night and Sunday morning; I’ll probably go insane if I have too much family time, so please try to help me escape. Oh, and randal, shoot me an e-mail or IM if you want my number down here (or directions). Wurd, b’s.
2001-11-17 20:59:36 – Laura
tore, i’m hanging out with you sometime…that’s a fucking order.
2001-11-18 01:59:04 – GrooveMan
Man.. I just got back from seeing Harry Potter. I loved it… it was so good. The movie rocked… and so did the book. So go see and read this great Story!! God, I can wait for Lord of the Rings 😉
