Hatred

I hate that I missed Tuesday Hatred over at AdamKotsco.com.

I hate that i never ever see plus sized women in hot-pink or powder blue panties anymore. (Where did the 80s go?) Seriously, I still remember an add in a catalog that had a curvy black woman with a cutsie fro in a powder blue bra and pantied ensemble. Her skin was perfect, and her hair sort of teased at her big brown eyes. I need a moment...

I hate that you cannot get anesthesia over the counter. I'd never be conscious again, baby.

I hate no longer being able to drink real pop. Gad-Zukes! I'm jonesin' for a soda.

I hate not feeling guilty for cruising for porn in any non-relative sense. The only thing to prevent said ogling is my wife's dislike for the behavior. That's enough, but shouldn't there be more?

I hate never agreeing with anything that I hear at church - ever. "No room for gray in religion," says he. "My ASS!" says I. (Well said, Joe.) What planet are these people from?

Mmmmmm...... Powder Blue.....

I don't need no arms around me ...

I don't need no drugs to calm me...
I have seen the writing on the wall.

Don't think I need anything at all.

NO! Don't think I need anything at all!

Crash - Dave Matthews

Definitely one of the best songs of all times.

Specifically, it reminds me of a time in my life.
- A time when I dreamed of Amy and Michelle and Sherry and Jill and Lisa. Especailly Lisa.
- A time in my life when glancing over at Launa in her revealing sunday best could could give me the sort of problem that makes a fellow need to find an excuse to remain seated, even though paster says please stand.
- A tim in my life when the most amaizing experience I'd had was one encountered alone in my room after Lisa had touched me that day. Even more real than the real thing.
- A time in my life when watching a woman through a window was not some insipid act of purile hedonistic indulgence to be avoided lest I be labelled or worse, but a rare and mighty gift from God - a truly cosmic moment when i glimpsed what I still only hoped I would someday encounter.

"Hike up your skirt a little more, and show the world to me ... in a boy's deam..."

Songs like this are both good music and good poetry. If only there were more of them.

Dicrocoelium dendriticum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wow - I must admin that this is the kind of thing that makes me doubt both evolution and creation, for differing reasons.

Dicrocoelium dendriticum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Dicrocoelium dendriticum) is a parasite which lives its life in three animals.

First stage: D. dendriticum starts life as eggs found in the dung of cattle. This dung is fed upon by snails which allow the eggs to enter the snail's intestine. Once inside, the eggs hatch and burrow into the digestive gland of the snail. The flukes reproduce in this gland and are expelled from the snail in slime trails.

Second Stage: Ants happen upon the slime and consume it as a source of moisture thus taking the new flukes into their system. Once inside the parasite shows an interesting tactic. By controlling nerve centers of the ant they are able to control its behaviour. When the sun sets and temperatures drop the ant is compelled to attach itself to a tall blade of grass by its mandibles. Here it lies in wait to be ingested by some grazing animal. If the ant survives the night the sun prompts it to return to the colony and live its life normally, until the next night. Eventually the ant is eaten by some grazing animal.

Final Stage: Flukes living within ants are eaten by cattle while grazing. The flukes will enter the digestive system and force their way into the cow's liver, here they will continue to grow to adults capable of producing eggs."
