dream?
Friday, November 26, 2004 at 11:41PM i'm in my bed
eyes open as i try to rock my brain to slumber
c.s. pops out of the wardrobe smoking a pipe
"don't worry lad
pain is God's megaphone"
t.s. crawls out from under the bed.
"all meaningful relationships end in pain."
"that's a really cheerful thought, mr. elliott."
i said respectfully.
dylan opens my bedroom window
obviously returning from the pub.
breath reeking of rum.
"gently
do not go
gently" he slurred.
good night! i said.
and he meekly closed the window
but he continued to stare in pity.
nosed pressed against the glass.
t.s. and c.s. ogled
as if i had invited them
into some cerebral slumber party
suddenly a dark figure appeared
towering over the moonlight
"chesterton..." i whispered
chesterton stood like a giant, finishing a hotdog.
he swallowed and said,
as brushed the crumbs from his gigantic coat,
"Indeed that is why the saint is often a martyr;
he is mistaken for a poison because he is an antidote."
what am i supposed to say?
c.s. loves a good fight
and chesterton could write in his sleep and probably did.
t.s. could think his way out of quicksand
dylan is passed out in the front of my house.
alarm
5:15 am
time to shower.
another day

What do you think? Holographic technology is still fairly new but there are scientists out there who believe we've only begun to tap into it.
There are also people working on holographic based cloaking devices for use in combat. In 10 years we could be looking back on the technology of today and laughing.
Thoughts?
What diets have you done that actually worked for you?
How long did you keep it up? (Yes I'm assuming you gave up at some point)
I've done many diets in my life and each time I gave up keeping it going for various reasons.
One does stand out though and that's the cabbage soup diet. It is meant to cleanse your body of all the bad foods you've had and should only be done for one week since it is not a diet for life. I can say it really worked. My mum and I did it (I think 10 years ago) She lost about 3 kg in that week and looked no different in her appearance. I, on the other hand lost nothing, yet I looked great.
In a nut shell the diet consists of having a certain recipe for cabbage soup which you can eat as much as you want the entire week, and every day you eat something else (can't remember the list though..)
How about you?
