wow… interesting way to generate hits. 374 hits in 3 minutes.
had my entry hit with a spambot, so I’ve edited it and am posting the information here for future reference. I’m also reporting it to abuse at the ISP level. 5.5 megs of spam in 3 minutes warrants that.
As a result, I’ll screenning any anonymous comments now, at least for a bit.

Interesting… my journal is in the lj top 40. (according to Google‘s page-ranking methods) found here. I don’t know if that’s good, bad, or neither.
a few neat things on
Can’t seem to get to sleep… things weighing on my mind, both good and bad. ah well, I guess that’s what my books are for.. Escape, and a natural tranquilizer.
Positives, The There-crew, esp. DN. The Golden Egg trophy by the way is very pretty, and will look stunning on the mantle at the lighthouse.
Evil Thought.
If I was a psycho serial killer, I’d drain the blood from my victims, put it in ketchup packets, and leave them in public-access condiment containers.
I wonder how long blood would remain fresh, vacuum sealed at room temperature?
Man, now I’m afraid to eat french fries.
I’m glad I’m not a psycho serial killer.
420 dude!… Always look on the bright side of life…

(53-63) -just on the edge
You have an above average ability for understanding how people feel and responding appropriately. You know how to treat people with care and sensitivity. On Average, most women score about 47, and most men about 42.
Well, that’s something. Even If I’m very analytical, I can still catch a vibe.
According to the Baron-Cohen brain type chart, I have a balanced brain between male and female stylings, even though I got close to the edge of being a type E. So much for a manifestation of autism.
Folks still haven’t gotten the pod mind mapped yet, I guess.


Back from the bike ride… I saw a few places that have for rent signs up… I catalogued them for future reference come mid-may. Summertime is the best time to seek a place to stay in Florida, and the worst time to move. There was absolutely no sign of rain, and precious few clouds for that matter. I need to remember to bring my ball cap to spare my nose a scalding. Hasn’t happened yet, but I know I’ll burn if I’m not protected.

Brother seems to be doing fairly well, and I’m happy for that.
The FMM gang are having an Unreal tournament tonight at 9pm… I have to set a note to remind me, otherwise I’ll be sitting out front reading or something.
travel update
Looks like it might be a bit rainy. Keeping the bike route to areas with cover.
Trysi, one of my baby vampires has taken 67 pints of blood already! Who are you, Trysi?
Found all 30 Easter eggs… Josie gave me an adventure quest T-shirt for good sportsmanship and enthusiasm. 🙂 Egg 23 was a beast to find!
I joined the Adventure Quest club in There… I may design a little adventure with clues along the way myself sometime. I know it might help get me back into writing short stories.
I’ve met a great little crew in There. DeirdreNox, Chiasmodus, Whimsy, Sluggo & Josie are all wonderfully social people, and appreciate a pod’s sensibilities and humor. I even got to see my
sis in there briefly on Thursday. I think we’re five out of ten folks that found all the Easter eggs, and we were complimented for working as a team, and for all of us wearing bunny slippers as part of the hunt.
Now, I just have to plan out some little quest or adventure. Maybe a murder mystery with clues and such laying around… or something silly but fun. I’m sure I could get a few of the gang to help me out.
Meantime, I think a bicycle ride would be lovely. Until later, dear journal.
What do John Dillinger, Montgomery Clift, Frank Sinatra, and the driver of the car that killed James Dean at the crossroads have in common? The stockade at Schofield Barracks.
Note that even if you were alive before one of these people died, the spirit realm has a different concept of time. Who do you identify with, and why? Multiple answers are possible, even probable.
life is a succession of moments
Friday… Not too shabby.
Passover, Good Friday, Good day to catch a movie.
I’m going to skip House of 1000 corpses, even if it has a Clown ringmaster named Captain Spaulding. That’s something you go to see with a group to mock it. Same with Bulletproof Monk. Eek.. Looking at what’s playing, I may have to consult the nearby art theatre. Nothing mainstream is piquing my interest. [Update: Nothing interesting to Scotto is playing there either!] Am I just more discerning now? There was a time for about 2 years that I would hit a movie every week, somewhere. Of course that was when I had connections there, and could just walk in for free, fill up a brown lunch bag with theatre corn, and kick back. I think I got to see Ghost Dog five times that way.
Brother brought me over some goodies of his that he didn’t want bulking him down anymore while he’s relocating to a new home. Most worth mentioning are a rotisserie oven and a high-powered squirt gun.
Got sniped out of my n50 at the last moment, so I’m placing a bid on a new one…. d’oh!
Dan called me the other day and mentioned that he thought if I put a link in my lj asking for money, even if I didn’t give a reason, people would give it to me. The problem being of course… I wouldn’t want to bilk nice people. So a fun service might be instead a variant of the national star registry… the Scotto hair registry. For the low introductory price of $10, a hair will be plucked, sealed in a protective container, and catalogued. The buyer will receive a certificate of authenticity and a note about the hair’s native region. For a gold membership of $25, the patron will be allowed to choose a region from which the hair is gathered, and a day pass to visit the storage facility during normal operating hours. Possibly a chance to meet Scotto himself!
Of course, that’s just a gag. I wouldn’t want to set up all the licenses and tax stuff to run a business like that.

Participating in an Easter egg hunt at there.com
Out on walkabout. Saw some lovely sailboats, got a special free box of the new Kellogg’s smorez cereal. Looks like a decent snack, better for me that that mildly sweet bowl of death I picked up last test market.
Some things seen…. this drawing is different with a thin 1-pixel line than my usual marker school.

Down by the water….

I think I’m going to walk along riverfront and just soak up some atmosphere. Sure, now that I’ve got a good job lined up, 3 other good jobs call me for interviews. Sorry, guys, I signed papers. Call me back in 90 days, after my review comes in, guys!
