Yes I did take it, last month, we got a storm (rarity here in Phx or Scottsdale)...and thinking whether or not to go see Avenged Sevenfold..the 3 other bands suck...Buckcherry, Papa Roach, and Saving Abel...Blah

nice pic Chris. What scares you that way???

oh.. ok, I'm watching Greese. I turned my brain off..

Good night guys. Ttyl

Hahaha


well.. Greese is the perfect chick flick, plus it's a classic. A no brainer. But cute. And travolta was wearing tight black jeans. So right now, it's him. Later, it'll be spike.

And you have intelligent things to say too...More than me, cuz I can't explain the full mammalian digestive tract tonight, or how protozoans came to rule the earth in low tidal zones and created the breathable athmosphere... Well I can, but I don't feel like it.

DAILY HOROSCOPES:frm yahoo
Aries (3/21-4/19)
Your resources are feeling a bit pinched lately. But your creativity is still fully fleshed out. And powerful! So if you're feeling strapped for cash, simply apply your ingenuity to the situation. Why not barter if you don't have the money? Talk them into giving it to you for free? You can think of a new way to get what you want without giving up more than you have. People are willing to work with you on this, so ask them how you can make it work.

Taurus (4/20-5/20)
You might have to perform a tricky negotiation with someone who rubs you the wrong way today, but you'll do well with it -- and your confidence will send a very powerful signal to some very powerful people! Being more compromising will put you in a much more powerful position than you'd ever be in if you pushed and pushed to get your own way. You're starting to understand how to get more of what you want out of life by giving up something to other people every once in a while.

Gemini (5/21-6/21)
There is nothing to fear from trying something that you have never tried before -- foreign influences are having a very strong and very positive impact on your life right now, so be open to them. It's a wonderful day for exploring a culture that is strange or unusual to you. Learn about its customs, foods, traditions and music. Get an education on how another type of people live. This education will inspire you to continue to move beyond your comfort zone and take more risk.

Cancer (6/22-7/22)
You will get a lot further if you connect with other people today than if you stick to yourself. Do not be aloof, because it could give you a reputation for being difficult to work with or even rude -- and that's not you. Open yourself up to other people as much as you can and don't be afraid to give your honest opinion about things, even if you think it will create a ruckus. You need to realize that sometimes, people like a rabble-rouser who tells it like it is.

Leo (7/23-8/22)
You are feeling more open to new things than ever before, so this is a great day to explore a new physical exercise like Pilates, yoga or even swing dancing. You'll be able to get the hang of any new physical actions in no time, and you just might find the next great obsession in your life. You are moving toward a more movement-oriented phase of life, when the greatest joy you'll experience comes from getting your blood pumping and your body sweating!

Virgo (8/23-9/22)
People are going to be extra sensitive to whatever you say today, so do your best to offer constructive criticism instead of being just plain critical. While you don't relish the idea of walking around on eggshells all day long, you will be glad you did. The extra effort will prevent them from getting bent out of shape and creating some drama that you just don't need right now. Give these touchy people lots of space throughout the day. Avoid interacting with them altogether if you can.

Libra (9/23-10/22)
Today you'll have an unexpected hole punched into the middle of your day -- these free hours will offer you a very good excuse for deep thought and contemplation about a recent conflict you had with a friend or coworker. Your subconscious has been mulling this conversation over for a while, but today you should get your conscious mind involved. Think it through and examine where you may have gone wrong. Be prepared to make an apology -- or ask for one, depending on what you discover.

Scorpio (10/23-11/21)
It's time to finish up some unfinished business with one of your old relatives. Whether you forgot someone's birthday, still need to buy someone a wedding gift, or have left a conversation unfinished, today is the day to make up for it. Whoever is waiting to hear from you has a longer memory than you do, but they also have a huge heart. So don't worry about anger or hurt feelings. There's no need to be embarrassed because everyone procrastinates.

Sagittarius (11/22-12/21)
You need to start celebrating your uniqueness and stop comparing yourself to others! You have your own personality and it's wonderful -- so what if it prevents you from clicking with every single person you meet? It's no fun to always get along with everyone, anyway. Conflict is part of life, and having a preference for who you want to spend time with shows that you have taste. And the people who are in your circle of friends know how special they are. That's what matters.

Capricorn (12/22-1/19)
Changing your daily routine sounds a lot easier than it is, there is no doubt about that! But the efforts you are putting forth to find a better way of doing things will definitely be worth it. Not only will they make your life more interesting, but they will also keep a certain someone more interested in finding out what your next move might be! Every once in a while you have to do something to ensure that you are not getting stuck in a rut, and right now is a perfect time to do it!


Aquarius (1/20-2/18)
As happy as you are to be going where you are going right now, not everyone is right there on the same page with you. While you must be aware of it and make adjustments accordingly, you don't have to completely change your path -- that will only cause you to feel resentment. Just tone things down a bit. Spend and act more modestly, and don't be too outgoing with your energy. You could end up overwhelming those folks who still need some time to catch up with you.

Pisces (2/19-3/20)
Your analytical side and your intuitive side are in conflict right now -- and right now you have to balance the two or else you won't be able to get anything done today! So acknowledge that while you really do feel strongly about something you have no evidence for, you need to get the facts before you can make any kind of commitment. It's not wise to make choices based on your feelings right now. You need cold, hard facts or else it will be too hard to focus clearly.

^^^Just to realize that is a huge step in succeeding!

There's an old prayer that goes:
"God, grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
and wisdom to know the difference."

I'm not religious, but I always liked that one, and what you said reminded me of it.

Mine was pretty accurate! Libra. I had a fight with my mom yesterday. We didn't talk about it yet, but... I guess i'm gonna have to eventually sometimes tonight..

No, I decided against it..50 dollars to see 4 bands...3 of them I do not like...In my opinion, they suck...I'm not gonna stand there a couple hours wasting time...Avenged is good but I'm not a diehard fan

I want to wait for something bigger, like NIN for example...just being optimistic If not NIN, I'm sure there will be other big shows...

Where is everyone tonight?..oh wait, it is late on the east coast or the "maritimes" or early in Europe?

I'm being patient...and I see...

HOROSCOPES:
Aries (3/21-4/19)
Seek out conflict today -- it might sound crazy, but only friction with another intellectual equal will give you the burst of energy you need so much. Besides, you could use one more practice round at stating your case and pushing your side of an argument. The future holds some even bigger battles for you, so you should use today to get in fighting shape! You will be always be able to see the problems at hand, but you should develop more skills around doing something about them.

Taurus (4/20-5/20)
Do not be afraid to get dirty today -- the hard workload ahead of you requires some sweat, and you have all the energy you need to jump in and get some stuff done! It's important to get as active as you can as quickly as you can -- if you act too conservatively or take too long to get going, you will only waste time and waste a good opportunity. This is a day that is chock full of potential, so if you want to achieve some major goals, it's time to roll up your sleeves and get going!

Gemini (5/21-6/21)
A mellow friend has some advice for you -- they want you to slow down and just let the rat race go by, for a while. And you should listen to them, for once! Their influence in your life is good, so you should welcome their input and give it a try. It might be uncomfortable for a while, but soon enough you will discover how going slower in your life is actually a great way to get greater contentment. It's time to enjoy the people you are with, not try to beat them.

Cancer (6/22-7/22)
Your gut instincts might be an invaluable asset when you're trying to figure out what to order for dinner or what movie to go to, but it's not going to help you out when it comes to your money! Research and facts are what you need to get a handle on your finances -- and getting a handle on your finances should be top on your priority list. Do a detailed review of what money you have -- and more importantly, what money you owe. You will catch things just in time if you act now.

Leo (7/23-8/22)
Everyone will be laughing at something that you don't think is all that funny today, but try not to get grumpy about it. If you feel like you're missing out on the joke, don't let it unnerve you or weaken your self-confidence. You're just a bit out of synch with other people right now, mostly because you've been so wrapped up in your own stuff -- and rightly so. It's just going to take a little bit more time to get back into the swing of things, so be patient with yourself.

Virgo (8/23-9/22)
You won't need thunder and lightening to indicate when you've come upon a huge revelation today! All you have to do is to be open-minded and watch for signs to appear. Keep in mind that they might not look like what you expected -- a new person could indicate a new opportunity, an unexpected delay might set you up to be in the right place at the right time, and bad weather might send you a message you've been waiting for. There is no telling how an answer will be communicated.

Libra (9/23-10/22)
Money is going to be on your mind right now, but it is also on the mind of a dear friend. They've got some serious debt troubles and could be turning to you for help today. While you should try to understand what others are going through right now, you should avoid talking too long about financial issues with anyone today -- especially someone you care so much about. Your generosity could get you into trouble. Lend them your ear, but do not lend them any money!

Scorpio (10/23-11/21)
The time for new experiences and new ideas has come -- so be open to exploring new places! It's a great time to plan a trip to a foreign country, or to a place closer to home that you're not so familiar with. Take your blinders off and look at the world through fresh eyes to see how things are for a different culture. You'll gain some insights that will help you get along a lot better with a new person in your life. You are opening your mind to new ways of living.

Sagittarius (11/22-12/21)
The higher your hopes, the farther you could fall if they are not realized. Just be cautious right now and admit that while you want things to go well, you can't ensure that they will. Keep an open mind and be prepared to accept whatever happens. Take each hour as it comes and do not try to control the day. If you do, you will only end up getting frustrated -- and probably frustrating other people in the process. Focus on collaboration, not on having total control.

Capricorn (12/22-1/19)
There is no time like the present to get started on your future! Someone close to you is excited about something new in their life, so talk to them and find out how you can get your own new adventure off on the right foot. They have that little bit of insight (and a whole lot of encouragement) that will help you hit the ground running on your own goals. Whether it's beginning a diet, revising your resume, or just planning your next vacation, today's a great day to start something super.

Aquarius (1/20-2/18)
Your social life is going to start getting a lot hotter a lot sooner than you had anticipated, so get ready! Dedicate some of your time today to getting a few boring errands out of the way. If you have been putting off cleaning the house, today is the day to get it out of the way. Soon enough, you will not have a moment to spare for such household tasks. If you get chores out of the way quickly, you will be all the more relaxed and able to enjoy the good stuff that's coming!

Pisces (2/19-3/20)
You are so busy getting new things started today that it will incredibly difficult for you to step back and relax. But you need to quiet things down before your energy gets too drained. So give yourself a break later in the day -- make sure there's time to just sit around and do nothing. Resist the urge to fill up your free time for the sake of getting further ahead on a project. You're doing fine on your current timetable, so don't get carried away.

You'll get your Nin show!

I got called for an interview. The job is cool, starts at $120 per day. 40 hrs/week.

Thing is: the interview is 12 bus hours away from my place... I'll go there, have a 2 hours long interview, then hit the road again for another 12 hours. It's about as far from where I live than China's house!!! And the job starts in March, so no NIN tour!

Then again... Am I to miss a good job opportunity to see NIN??? I'm thinking no... The again i'm thinking yes... Then I think about my debt... and it's definitely no...

Awesome news!

When's the interview? Wait and see what you think of the place before you go making any rash decisions like missing a NIN tour... besides, if you like the job and get offered it, then put some money away when you start, if you can, so that you can travel down and catch at least one show. After you made that thread, you might have gathered together a bunch of people who could join up with you on a road trip. Then you can get both
