look at the 3rd pic on the left
Khiem: ghost?
Garry: supposedly an apparition caught on thermal imaging
from this show called ghost hunters...
there was nothing in the doorway
Khiem: pretty creepy stuff
Garry: indeed... how "real" it is, i dunno.. but supposedly they caught this earlier in the season of their show... but since it was such a good shot, they saved it for the season finale
which may or may not mean that it's not fake cause otherwise they could've done it anytime
Khiem: well it's good television, that's for sure
Garry: here's a question... what exactly do ghosts wear?
it's obviously not clothes
but it looks like it
Khiem: why can't they wear clothes?
why do they have to walk around naked?
Garry: well, how can they make clothes disappear?
if you dug them up, it'd still be on their body
not like they took it with them
they certainly shouldn't be able to wear clothes
or walk around with chains or swords or shit
Khiem: if you're trying to say that clothes shouldn't appear...neither should their bodies...because essentially clothes and their bodies are made of the same molecules...
ghosts should be formless
just energy
Garry: but bodies i can kind of get cause they used to be living.. attached to the soul
clothes are inanimate
Khiem: maybe the energy of the soul can be shaped to any form
maybe it's being shaped to the memory of that person the last time he/she looked in the mirror
Garry: possible... but still skeptical... haha
i still think they should be naked
haha
Khiem: it'd be pretty embarrassing for them if they saw other ghosts naked
I think I'd be more scared to see a ghost with a hard-on
cuz then he's not here just to scare me...he's here to violate me
Garry: yeah, that would be quite disturbing
how about a horny naked marilyn monroe ghost?
in her prime
Khiem: are you asking if I'd do her?
hard to say...depends if I could get it up after the initial scare
Garry: haha... if you did a ghost, that for sure would leave a stain on your bed...
Khiem: I don't know if I could trust a ghost
she might want to cuddle after s*x
Garry: or steal your soul
either way, it sucks

It’s been awhile and I don’t know where all the time went but I haven’t got much to show for it. I’m actually standing here with my hands open, palms up and shoulders shrugged. If there was an image that would best describe me, that would probably be it and it would be titled "Hey, what happened?" Bewildered by how fast the world is moving and amazed at how far behind I am.

So what’s new?

Recently I went paintballing with a group of 26 friends and acquaintances. One of the biggest adrenaline rushes I’ve had in awhile. The location was at Wasaga Beach and they had a 20+ acre lot with 11 outdoor scenarios to play. Each scenario was very well thought out and the buildings and props in each area were well designed. In 12 games my kill count was around 19 and I was killed about 7-8 times. Of those 7-8 times, I was shot in the head 5 times, once in the jaw under my mask/helmet. Bruise count at the end of the day? – zero. Fun factor on a scale of 1 to 10? – 10. Highly recommended and if you do ever go, please invite me.

Arrested Development episode 4 has been delayed for the last 2 weeks because of the World Series. The only show I watch religiously and it has to take a backseat to a baseball game, COME ON!

My friends and I have started discussions about starting a business. We’ve got some great ideas so far on paper and we’ve started preliminary research. Everyone’s excited about the prospects of working for themselves. I can’t wait for the day I can call myself Mr. Manager. Actually Mr. CEO sounds better. Wait, I don’t care for titles...except Mr. Roboto. Domo.

I started a small contract job recently, designing a database and some forms/reports for a small business in Burlington, ON. So far it has been rather smooth. Some extra income on the side in exchange for longer work days, less personal time and less time blogging. Sounds fair to me except for the blogging part.

I am in love with Emily Haines. Even if she dances like Elaine (from Seinfeld).

I am also in love with Sonia. She doesn’t dance like Elaine but she does one heck of a Lindsy (from AD) chicken dance.

Life is grand.
