    Even with all the nonsense, I'm still quite happy with my Facebook (and Twitter) experience.

    Had a very funny dream. It was some sort of spontaneous street festival/celebration sort of thing here in the Belgrade main street. I was hanging around with a strange assortment of people I know, some from days long gone, some who I see everyday. Out of nowhere, along comes Darth Tunes who enthusiastically waves at me from across the street and compliments my accent, for some reason. :p I go over and bring a tiny overflowing shot glass for Tunes because "You just gotta try this, man!" when a guy from my elementary school stumbles along and knocks it out of our hands. A brief scuffle then escalates into a full blown riot and I wake up.

    I take this as a sign that we should organize a party at first opportunity.

    'elementary school'... when people say that I just imagine a bunch of kids learning to be Sherlock Holmes.

    I actually ran into that guy I went to school with quite a few times (it's not a big city and you basically grow up with those people, it's from 7 until 15 years old here) and... well. I would certainly not invite him anywhere.

    He deserved what he got, not just for spilling the drink :p

    *pops in, looks around*

    Hi, guys. Wow, still no real 'spoilers' around here, even with filming almost wrapped. :confused:

    Yeah, I know I said I'd be non-spoiled, but I keep Googling Episode 7 and I'm getting bored.

    So how are things going, other than the Monopoly discussion?

    I'm still looking for work, and my most loathed/hated baseball team is representing the National League in this year's World Series... other than that, I'm fine. :p



    A story popped up in my Twitter & Facebook feeds today that affirms why I love living here in La La Land:

    Just to get back to the social media discussion for a minute... I posted this earlier but maybe some missed it: zylch.co

    I had a MySpace page for about a week back during its peak, and then deleted it. I've never had a Facebook account, and I really don't like it, so I don't plan to. Twitter is more of a mixed thing for me; I don't like the way it gets used by some people in a "social" manner, but I like how it can be a quick and direct source of actual news. I have an account there that I use just as a newsfeed, which I may or may not keep for the long term. I don't tweet at all, so I don't use it in a social way. So my online interaction is really similar to what The Hellhammer said; it's just here. I also used to post on a few other discussion forums, but that's stopped now too. As far as "keeping in touch with friends and family" goes... they all know my e-mail address and phone number. :p

    My lawyer I had back in 2005 during Celebration 3 told me... no joke... that a man dressed like a stormtrooper & a man dressed like Vader got into a fight at a Indy hotel over a woman dressed like slave Leia. Apparently Vader was "sleeping" with his own daughter & her stormtrooper boyfriend wasn't having any of that.

    Fair enough, but it's also nice to "keep up" with folks via pictures and other avenues as well that are much easier to access via platforms like facebook IMO. Don't get me wrong, a few of my friends and I actually send hand-written letters to each other as well because we tend to be luddites in a certain sense of the word.

    yeah, except when they start having babies, then it becomes a real snooze fest.

    Except when you've been working since four in the morning and you just want to go to freaking sleep but they won't let you because they want something from you but nothing you give them makes them happy and stops them from crrryyyying and eventually you start crying too because you have to go to work in an hour. Not so cute then. :p
