If I were wise

Some-times I die.
Deep in my heart
I don't know why.

Some-times you cry.
If I new what
If I only new why


All...
vows that you make
All..
hearts that you break
All ...
these games that you play.
All ...
these lies that you say.


Now...
If I were wise
I'd see past the pain
I'd see past the lies

But...
of friendship and trust
The promise of love
Its really not just

So...
We fail in this dance
We get caught in the web
We end up discarded

News: French hate self more than American hate them.

Apparently the French hate themselves more than Americans hate them. Ah, those wacky French and their comedic self loathing.

Snakes in a hallway.

I found a two foot long Back Racer snake in the physics building. It was relaxing, curled up on the floor in the middle of the first floor hallway. I was walking in and saw it just a whole troop of boy scouts were walking in as part of a tour. The poor thing almost got trampled, but I was able to save it. I scooped it into my backpack and then released it outside.

Baptism by fire.

In the cold
and the rain
Into heat
you've come again

And cruel death
rose all around
from the sky
down to the ground

And the fire
kept coming from the sky
And the fire
kept raining from on high

streaks of light
all lit up
I don't wanna
drink this cup


on we fight
in death's ground
in his sight

And the fire
kept coming from the sky
And the fire
kept raining from on high

alone we go in
but out we come
as brothers

In moonlight (part 1)

Draped in moonlight, she was standing there
little shadows on her face from her hair
in the dim white light, I could see
she was only looking right at me

In still silence, I could just hear
her softly breathing in my ear
quietly from somewhere, far away
violin music now starts to play

Surprise Surprise: Women and men see sexual harassment differently.

Apparently women and men tend to see sexual harassment differently. Men tended to see sexual harassment as an abuse of power, meaning sexual harassment was something people with power did. Women tended to see sexual harassment as an attempt to gain power.

"So if a man thinks that sexual harassment only comes from a supervisor, he may feel free to make sexual comments to a female coworker. The female coworker is likely to see the sexual comments as a quest for power and label it as sexual harassment."

Study shows: Leanest teens tend to eat the most.

A recent study found that amoung teens, the leanest ones tended to also eat the most and also burned the most energy.


Then another study finds that dieting actually may lead to long term weight gain! I think the message is clear, eat when you are hungry and lead an active lifestyle!
