At dinner tonight I found out one of my roommate's dad is a Korean diplomat. So my roommate has diplomatic immunity. This just opens up a whole lot of opportunities. He's going with me everywhere from now on.

This picture's hilarious. It's even funnier when you take it in context (scroll down to July 2, 2000).

Wow, I wish I could take pictures like these at Lost America. I was considering buying a print, but they're $295 each!

Another dull Friday night. I'm going to see The Cell in about half an hour, so that'll keep me occupied for a while. I drove around Orange County for 4 hours today and I almost finished a roll of film. I was sort of depressed cause everything looks the same and there wasn't anything interesting to see. Same mini-malls, industrial parks, farmlands, and streets.

I've only lived in 2 cities my entire life, Pasadena and Irvine. And, to me anyway, they're fairly different. So maybe I was naive expecting other cities to have more character. Maybe it's not necessarily the rest of America that looks so homogenized, but LA sure as hell is.

My god, work is so boring. I was sleeping for the last half hour.

The Onion presents: Lawn-and-Garden Tips.

• Mowing a pentagram into your lawn not only looks cool; it will also increase your dark powers.
• If your family has been suffering a string of lawn-related injuries, consider installing natural grass.

My apartment's being fumigated today, so I can't go back until 4:00. It's just as well, I guess, cause I need to shoot a roll of film for my photo class. I think I'll just drive around town today.

It feels like the weekend. I'm already as bored as I am on the weekends, so I'm halfway there. I just need to dread Monday also and then today could just as well be Saturday night. I need a girlfriend or something. Watched Fight Club again tonight. Man I love that movie. Ewwww...one of my roommate's uses balls of wax for earplugs. I'm just rambling here.

Brap.dk has a lot of pictures of Skinny Puppy from the Doomsday Festival in Germany last Sunday. Velvet Acid Christ's page also has pics of Skinny Puppy, as well of pics of VAC themselves. Damn, I wish I could've been there. Luckily Nettwerk is releasing a live album of this performance, so those of us who couldn't go can still experience it.

Damn, I have a 5 page paper due tomorrow and I only have 1 and a half pages so far. Why the hell did I have to watch Survivor tonight after avoiding it for the last 2 months?

Everyone's heard of Cox Communications, the cable TV company, right? Their pay-per-view service is called iNDemand (or some other similar silly capitalization scheme).

Heh heh, Cox iNDemand. I'm in a Beavis and Butthead mood right now.

Well, I had an interesting night. Saw about 10 minutes of Space Cowboys (plus 5 or 6 previews) and then the power in the theater goes out. This is after wandering around outside for 45 minutes cause we got there too early. Yay.

For some reason the USC football team is having football camp or whatever here at my school. So now there's a bunch of football jocks walking around campus. What the hell are they doing here? Don't they have their own school to practice at? What, is it warmer in Irvine than in LA? I really hope UCI didn't donate the practice space to USC.
