Writings From the Margin
It was during my first semester back at college after the Army. I found my self observing my fellow classmates and daydreaming about other things in my classes. I began to write little "notes" in the margins of my notebooks. This did not happen often, but here are the results of when it did happen.
There were only 4 pieces written during that time.

Lungfish
One of my all time favorite bands that are still around... A few of their tracks popped up right in a row while my iTunes was running random selection.
Here is a description stolen from Wikipedia:
Lungfish (band)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Lungfish
Origin Baltimore, Maryland
Country United States
Years active 1988 – Present
Labels Dischord, Simple Machines
Members Daniel Higgs, Asa Osborne, Mitchell Feldstein, Sean Meadows
Now operating in its 17th year, Lungfish is a punk band based in Baltimore, Maryland. All of their music has been released by the Washington, D.C. punk label Dischord except for their first LP, Necklace of Heads which was released by Simple Machines (it was later added to the CD release of Talking Songs for Walking by Dischord). While seemingly mundane on the surface, Lungfish remains one of the most intense, strange, and dedicated bands in the music world, constantly repeating similar ideas over and over.
Their line-up as of 2005 consists of Daniel Higgs (vocals), Asa Osborne (guitar), Sean Meadows (bass), and Mitchell Feldstein (drums). Previous bass players are John Chriest and Nathan Bell.
Their albums feature compelling guitar-based repetitions with Daniel Higgs' prophetic and cryptic lyrics. Among their most prominent early works are the albums Talking Songs for Walking and Rainbows from Atoms, which feature the band's original bassist. More recent works include The Unanimous Hour, Love is Love and Feral Hymns.

Star Trek Motivational Posters
I jut ran across this site Star Trek Motivational Posters. It has some funny stuff on there, one of may favorites:
Ghost Writing
Now that i had some time I have added more to the Blackout Writings blog.
Originally this collection of works (under the label B.O.W.) were the only ones I had under the "Blackout Writing" title until I created the new blog.
These essentially were writings that I could never categorize in anyway. Friends have stated that these could be considered a form of "Ghost Writing" as the term goes. I would just put pen to paper and let the words flow out with out with out thought to whether they made sense or not. To me they are like external dreams.
Feel free to read and interpret them as you will.

So I took a little test...
In it there were a few ways I could of gone with a few questions... but from what i pick for answers this is what I got:
Your Ideal Relationship is Friends Only |
Honestly, you're not really ready for a relationship right now. And you prefer to keep things platonic, for now. That's not to say that one of your friends could be dating material. You're just taking a break for now. |

Internet Law #2
Aranuir's 2nd Law of the Internet (known in some quarters as Rule #34) states specifically and unequivocally: There is porn of it, whatever IT is.
Think about it.... scary... isn't it.

Ok this sucks
Especially since I missed the announcement last November...
One of my favorite bands has broken up. I know a lot of bands I listen too come and go often, but this was one of my favorites that I have met and got to know a little.
Goodbye Rainer Maria your music was just as awesome as you were as human beings.
