So, as I asked Mrs Lincoln after the show; did I miss anything?

What's been happening? Not much.. Same shit different day..

I kind of feel like 'Hard Harry' from Pump up the volume not knowing (or caring) if anyone is reading this.

Anywho, I've gotten myself, for some strange reason, a crackberry, which I'm very attached, and thought if I can't seem to email people with it, and I'm now one of the few without a Facebook anymore, that I'd just waffle away on a blog. There will be some intresting readings over time I promise.

Starting with; The Internet
Don't you love how you can say what you want? Yeeeahh that's what I thought.. Someone somewhere will read what you wrote, crack the shits and all hell will break loose. Forget internet censors, we've got family, friends, wives, husbands to do that.

Useless info, was bored at lunch..

Alternate Alien 3

"We open in a wooden cathedral. We think it's the middle ages. There are monks working behind the scenes, going upstairs through alcoves, then up ladders through attics and lofts. We follow one monk, who emerges through a gantry and looks out through a trap door across the encrusted surface of his enviroment, a little plain that curves, with a lagoon and a shallow atmosphere. The monk sees a star in the East. It gets closer and closer. Other monks come up the ladder and more people join them over a period of days and weeks. And the star gets closer, until it smashes into the lagoon. The monks believe it is some sort of omen, that it is going to save them in some way. Of course, we know it is something quite different."

"The monk we first see, John, goes over to the crashed spaceship in a coracle, this ancient little vessel made of hide. Everything is destroyed inside. He and the other monks find bedchambers with the glass broken. They find trails of blood. There's no sign of Newt, and they find Ripley. She's asleep, but the shield to her sleeping chamber is broken. They take her by coracle and by ladder down to where the senior bishop is. He's kind of a real reactionary, and rules with an iron rod. The bishops and the monks interrogate her, and she only has one ally, this monk called John, who's a little more open than the rest. There's a weird physical frisson between him and Ripley. Then things start going wrong."

"There are these monastic toilets. Six or eight long-drop toilets with dividers between each closet. Here the monks catch up on the local gossip. But the Alien - which has come from the spaceship and then down into the wooden vessel - is circling through their sewerage system. One guy is in the middle of a conversation, then whoosh! The Alien gets him from below. One by one, the Alien sucks them down into the sewage."

"The monks ecome frightened. Ripley, as a woman, has become to them a kind of evil presence. She is sent down to a cell, where she starts to hallucinate. It's kind of morning sickness. She has been inpregnated by the Alien. The hallucinations are very much likeBosch visions, apocalyptic visions of fire and death. The Alien attempts to taunt her, and they achieve this strange intimacy. And Ripley can't tell what's real and what's not real."

"It's a year or two later. The flames have been put out. The wheatfields have grown back. You see a line of monks, wearing their cowls and habits, and they are working away, stripping the plants for the weat. We move down the line and you see one face, and then another, and then your realise that one of the monks is now Ripley. You just see this lean face that has been through all these things. And she has finally found her own sense of community through thses men and this isolated place. She's found her own sense of peace."

This was the original Alien 3 story by Vincent Ward. Which he's said "I still have this film in my head, I can still see it really strongly. Who knows? we may still see it yet"

So here's my second posting. Not sure what to write exactly.. I do have a couple of thing to mention though..

I have this one friend who kind beats up on 'there' self (trying not to be gender specific) about getting stuff done. I guess it's kind of hard not to say to much with out giving away the identity. But anyway, they are really good at what they do, REALLY good, and i guess they just need some reassuring sometimes. But we all do, don't we? Like i'm going to be a father and i'm really not sure if and how i will cope. Not so much as a father directly, the outside factors like bills, work, one day we will HAVE to move from our place (rented), stuff like that. And i guess sometimes it would be nice to be told "it's going to be alright".

Another point i want to discuss with my maybe 2 readers. Why is it we don't seem to be allowed to be happy? I've had a few things in the past that would make my day, but lately it's just been getting my arse to Alaska to see this bus before it dissolves into the either.. But with a kid coming thats not going to happen anytime soon. I mean i had my chance to just head off, but i didn't and it eats me up so badly that i mightn't have that chance again.. And i'm not blaming anyone for this, i just wish things had worked out differently.. Just the thought of getting state side and seeing my friends, hanging out, having fun, seeing the bus, i can not think of anything that would make me happier, seriously.. I'm not sure how to explain it more specifically..

On another note.. thank goodness for the spell checker on here.. lol

"Everything decent's been done. All the great themes have been used up. Turned into theme parks. So I don't really find it exactly cheerful to be living in the middle of a totally, like, exhausted decade where there's nothing to look forward to and no one to look up to."

Bit dramatic i know, but hey, it's true..

Welcome to my first blog...

Not sure if or when people will be reading this. I have a few faithful fans on my Fakebook account, but i'm a 'nobody' on here so we'll see what happens.

Think i'll see the general reaction (if any) to start to see if i can blog properly or have to censor this too..
