Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

Isn't Canada almost twice as large than Europe?

Europe?

no way, y'all don't even have trees. :lol:

Texas baybie! we don't freeze our asses off all the damn time, we actually have air conditioners in our homes. and green grass in febuary.
Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.


Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.

Size doesn't matter - it's what you do with it 8-)
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.


And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

Hmmm........I started this topic then didn't come back forever. Woops.....

First......I am not a big Texas fan. My roomie is from Texas, she agrees. Luckily, there are 50 (!!!!!!) states, so we can all live where we want.

Not everyone moves to Vermont because its sorta hard living. Things aren't 5 minutes away. We only have about 2 (I actually only know of 1) Starbucks in the state. School and the grocery store are 25 minutes from my house.

Vermont is so cool because not everyone lives there. :mrgreen:

When I step outside, all I hear is the brook. I live on a dirt road. There are no street lights. At night, all you can see are 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 stars.

I live in Los Angeles now. I can get ANYTHING within 5 minutes. Everything is close. Blah blah blah. I love both worlds, both have cool stuff to offer. However.....I'm going back when I'm done with school. Its just REAL there.

As for Bush. Damn, I wanted to stay out, but hearing someone who supports Bush is like sticking a hot poker in my eye. Hehe.....kidding, don't get all pissed. I just like to hear the view, because I completely don't understand it.

Adding to the past list of why I don't support Bush........
All his programs are severely underplanned and underfunded, but have cool names. No Child Left Behind.......ooooo, I don't want any children left behind!! Oh wait.......they don't invest time or money in it, so it actually allows for lower standards and more class division in education......

The Patriot Act! Coool!!! I'm patriotic! oh, wait.........you mean they can take away my civil liberties and create even more targeting of minorities?

The Clean Air Act!!! Even better, I LOVE clean air!!!!! Oh, wait....it actually has nothing to do with clean air? Its just a cover to protect big businesses so that they can pollute without repurcussions then make big donations to Bush???

hmmmmmmmmmmmm.........I won't EVEN start on the bully complex....

Haha, I waited for weeks on end for him to make that announcement. I was hoping for something a little greater........like........he's just going to engage in good ole' fashioned hand to hand combat in a battle for the White House...but thats cool too.

Basically, his greatness never ends. I miss Dean :cry:

Ahh.......but I can't be so selfish. I got him for most of my growing up life :mrgreen:
