FOXSports.com - Elite company: Bonds blasts 700th home run
it's only a matter of time now... make the bay area proud, bonds!
just finished the CONDENSED book "the runaway jury"... not bad... not bad... nice twists and turns... the only bad part about reading a book that turned into a film is that everytime i see the main character while reading the book(haven't watched the film yet), i see john kusack's face, and the antagonist looks like gene hackman with a goatee. in the end though, i'm somehow not surprised; i haven't read a lotta books where there is a bad ending stuck in. EVER. when's the last time you saw a book where evil won? oh yea; satan's bible.
before that, i finished "letters from a skeptic..." LONG overdue to finish that... i am reminded of one of the same concepts i read from "the case for christ" concerning God and hell; God never gives up on us til death finally ends our life... it's then that he gives us what we want.
"12 stones - the way i feel" has to officially be my favorite rock song; i NEVER get tired of listening to it... it's 12 stones at its best.

i have a new cell phone number, so ask me about it on aim or in person.
GGXX #R - Milia's stage has some of THE best background music i've heard in a video game. it's rich with electric guitar riffs. i get chills listening to it.
norcal college fball this weekend pretty much ROLLED over everyone... well, actually, maybe the entire cal state; ucla got into the mix, and usc had an amazing 49-0 exhibition. just ridiculous.
ever noticed how every new technology invented to make life easier only results in us becoming even more soft? somebody should shoot the idiot who invented sliced bread :D our modern-day society is run amuck with instant gratification. that's all everybody wants; nobody wants to work for our stuff anymore. some examples? lemme run down a few of my fave hobbies and how even these are degrading:
-video games; the dying of fighters shows that no one wants to invest their time to make something better
-modern rock; you want to tell me this 1 power chord a minute stuff for mainstream noise is really music?
-nba; streetball; nuff said
of course, these are arguable; for instance, ppl who play cs usually devote a lot of time to getting better at it, but IMO, ppl who play fighters devote a LOT more time to it, especially when they're using low tier characters. then you have to know framestats in some games too. modern rock has its redeeming sides at times, but i'm talking about what you hear about 70% of the times. punk rock is not that good. the d in the nba is starting to be on the rise a bit, but when did we start concentrating upon image so much that we forgot how to drop a bucket against a defender who's sticking upon you like glue? as i once heard somewhere, "you'll never get that shot off in the nba, cause it's counterfeit" the and1 team (to my delight) got frikking owned when they toured oakland, cause all those guys just dropped shots and played d.
