Another idea I had was poetry readings. No seriously, I think it would be neat…until we get bored of it and move on to something else. For example, wouldn’t you like to hear me read Lovecraft’s The Fungi From Yuggoth? Or wouldn’t you? I imagine there is somewhere in town you could go for this, but I wonder if it would be as fun. And every time we could have it at a different place.
Yet another thing I don’t have time for…
I think it would be neat to have a weekly or bi-weekly (which means I have sex with both kinds of weeks) “tv series” events. People would come over and we’d start the first night with a bunch of first episodes - first episode of Buffy, first episode of X-Men Evolution, first episode of Futurama, etc…maybe 2 hours of that. Then the second time we have the event, we watch the second episodes. Third night, third episodes. You get the idea. Good idea or waste of over-ambitious claptrap?
I admit it.
I recently (Monday) learned that Jean Chretien is not our prime minister. This is indicative of my fondness for (and attentiveness to) politics, or lack thereof. And we’ve got an election coming up. Driving through Coquitlame, you see signs all over the place. I haven’t seen any such signs around my usual haunts (Fairview, downtown). So uh…yeah. I’m registered to vote (last time I checked) so I will now be soliciting suggestions & arguments as to how I should vote. I usually vote Green. Now, I understand that doing so may split the vote for another candidate who could otherwise possibly beat a less desirable candidate, but I wonder how long will that go on for? If nobody ever votes for the party they actually want to win the election because of that fear, how will that party actually ever win the election?
I’m bored.
