A new blog for my rants

well, I'm starting a new blog. Note: this doesn't replace this one. This will still be my primary. Blog 9 From Outer Space (B9FOS.blogspot.com) will be a site for talking about bad movies and other crap works of fiction. I shall post my first rant to it when I time to watch something worth heckling. I shall keep you posted.

This post goes out to the fairest. Hail Eris!

AAAAARRRRGGGGHHH!!!

Well, I suppose if I fail bio-chem, I can always fall back on my alternate life plan: hobo.

"A glassite axle towers from stem to stem
Containing the machineries of hell
(Where Blake might lead a skeptic angel if
He would impose his vision on that spirit),
Whose function is to suck in through the intake
The planetary gas and comet-dusts
With an electric funnel twelve miles wide,
And, like a ramjet, burn this vaporous fuel
And turn its nuclear substance into light;
Light whose reaction mass indeed is small
But whose velocity, and thus momentum,
Could scarcely be improved on by an angel.
The incandescent torch the vessel wields
Is wing and sword at once, a drive or weapon;
And harnessed to an asteroid or comet
Becomes a miner's pick or welder's arc.
The forrard lobe is full of windowlight;
Part from the radiance of ancient Sol,
Part from the fusion furnaces behind
The glasswall of the axle at the core."

Holy living fuck! Honours students can take 800 - level cources with permission in 4th year! Graduate level ecology and animal behaviour, here I come!

A realization

Having a nervous breakdown the night before you have to get up at 6:30 to work is probably not the best plan in the world. I shall endevour to schedule these things better.

Also, after hearing much bitching (well, from Kelly and Swambo. I think TJ was possitively joyful that I quit blogging) I guess I'll give blogging another shot. Let's see if I can actually start posting semi-regularly again.
