You're right to give it time, good luck with the whole situation.

Yeah, look up Mitch Hedberg, he's hysterical. Basically his comedy is a series of one liners: "Last week I helped my friend stay put. It's a lot easier'n helpin' 'em move. I just went over to his house and made sure that he did not start to load stuff into a truck."

I've heard of Russell Peters but don't know his material that well, actor or stand up?

What's "naco" mean?

[Just read your post about the letters.] If that's how you feel, put your cards on the table, albeit as delicately as possible. If you don't call him and try to be friends, will you expect him to take the first step?

Do you think you were "in the right" in that situation? Or do you wish you had handled it differently? Understand that first and then get in touch with him, perhaps another email?

Okay, enough preaching from me, sorry for that little diddy. I'm doing well, got the new Mitch Hedberg comedy CD which is pretty cool.

You should send it or at least somehow get across how you're feeling, no?

Well, why'd it reach that point if you were such good friends?

Based on what you're saying it sounds like if you put yourself out there he'll respond in a similar manner.

New roommate and I get along, we actually don't see each other much. I thought living with someone I didn't know beforehand would be scary but it's actually not that bad 'cause we're both fairly independent, quiet, and respectful of one another.

Good luck with your friend, what happened if I may ask?

New place has a roommate who has some stuff there already, but little of it is useful on a day to day basis.

A new community for artists and creative minds - and a new Internet series from Marshall Herskovitz and Edward Zwick, the creative minds behind "My So-Called Life" and "Blood Diamond."

I can easily regurgitate what you want to hear...

Sep 30, 2008

but I chose to write my paper with my own opinion. My prof gave me a D on my paper, not because I didn't have enough evidence to support my thesis, but because I had a difference of opinion. It's such bullshit! I called out a character for being an ignorant piece of shit in my paper and my prof tells me that I didn't understand the story. If you read Cathedral by Raymond Carver. I'm sure you'd agree with me. This character was so fucking narrow minded and in my paper i bashed and tore his character apart and I had evidence to back up what i was saying.
