Not a whole lot has been shaking, and nothing's been baking, so I don't have a whole lot to go over today. It's a Friday, I've got just a measly physics final and a music theory test to get through, and the semester will be over. I'll start creative writing, and many things will be forgotten.

I've had ephemereal thoughts of learning to play the guitar now that I have experience with stringed instruments and chords, but they're mostly fantastical. How's that for dumb Shakespeare words? And I've mostly been reading LOTR because I have nothing better to do without a gaming console (only temporary, folks). I read some of the appendices, namely the history of the witch-king and the story of arwen and aragorn. I feel pathetic, but I suppose that's what I get.

Nobody seems to be posting. So here's a toast to Barr, the only one who cares.

I dislike two things in life: whining and people who apparently lack any sense of orginization and must order all of their arguments with sentence prefixes such as "First of all," "Lastly," etc. This is why Ben's shoutout struck such a dissonant tone with me. Everything about it screamed "jew." So let me reiterate: Yang DID bring the candy for our sale, you just didn't have any auuthority over the proceedings, nor were the candy + provider meaningful at the moment. So they stagnated. And about your "creative writing," which you have supposedly been granted via a semester of creative writing- let's face it, that's bullshit. The only thing you get out of that class is arts credit (similair things could be said of most of Uni's classes) and even that is effort wasted. For about half the time you could get the same amount of credit in orchestra/chorus. But I suppose that those without rythm must seek alternative routes to graduation.

I've gone off on a tangent. My bad.

No, the point that pertains to the topic at hand is that if you guys just keep the development to creative writing, it won't go anywhere. Delving into your fantastical creative writing skills you may be coming up with humorous scenarios involving many movie characters, but without the limiting factors a la Posse, we won't be filming any of it because it's all implausible. So cut the shit and feed it to Ludmila: if the Posse isn't involved, you don't have a film crew.

Hey, I just scraped a post off of a measly Jewish shout out. How implausible is that?

People complained to me about the lack of detail in my post regarding the sleepover. I don't really think I left a whole lot out, and besides- if you're going to talk about it at school, I don't think we need to actually say what we did on the web.

But enough. I didn't come here to complain about you guys bitching, I came to discuss our opportunities.

I suppose that most of our ideas are usually intended for the humor of the moment and never are implemented full-scale, but a lot of these relics of 2003 can be used if we actually try. I know we have a bad record of implementation, but I think the Posse is up to anything it really wants to do, with a big plus if nobody needs to pay for anything. Macgyver club was created as a front for our plans. So far we've only succeeded in watching Hebrew Hammer. So, what ideas could we actually pursue?

The idea of a candy sale is not quite as feasible as our other ideas; only Yang even tried to bring anything and that didn't work. Things that aren't free usually don't go very far with us as a group; I was surprised to see people actually TRY for Jerry's Uni-verse fund (which ended up hilariously- this just goes to show that a small amount of money can go very far). Nonetheless, if we have a sort of investment scheme where the person who supplies the candy (or for that matter, any sort of food) gets the profits minus a macgyver commission, we can actually encourage others to participate. We'll call it the Macgyver Bizzarre Bazaar. The sale will be held on a wednesday, with the people signing up the week beforehand. Trust me, it will work. And in the end, Macgyver club will make money. Once we get enough, we can start pizza sales. Or something.

Our Gay Baby project is floating dead in the water. We need to revive it. Ben and Jerry have been hoarding the script-process to themselves as a way of spending their time in creative writing, but I think we should have a day put aside for a get together dedicated to it. We will also need to seriously consider the filming process, and what we can't or won't film. This is an easier idea to implement, but it may end up as a disaster. To avoid the wrath of Kovacs and others, we may need to avoid an AVC showing or must simply plan not to release it.

We talked semi-sincerely about this one before, and as Macgyver club we can hold an event where a bunch of us get together after school to hold medeival combat sessions. It's going to have to be after school or we won't have enough time during lunch, and weekend sessions usually have low turnouts. If the knights (seniors) disagree, they can go shove a pole up their ass, we don't have to listen to them. If they want to join, that's fine because we need their crappy swords anyways.

That's enough for now, I suppose; take things beyond what I've said if you want to.

There was a sleepover just last night at Max's house. It involved an unprecedented amount of 5 member of the posse (being Jerry, Max, Barr, Ben, and me) and was by far a lot more exciting than usual. I'm still in conflict as to what I should be posting about it and what I shouldn't, so for now my content will remain mild.

We began with pizza, as is the norm. Then we played ping-pong, and watched "But I'm a Cheerleader." Very interesting movie indeed. More interesting was the truth-or-dare session, which involved never-nude strip ping-pong, Barr pole dancing, Jerry sliding down the stairs in a most public manner, nude strip jenga in the dark, and raw egg consumption. I suppose that if you're reading here you already know how we act together, so there's no need for me to try and justify all of this. Then we watched Scarface-- excellent movie-- and slept for a few hours before leaving.

This time's Gay ratings were slightly twisted- this time we had couples facing off against eachother. In the end Drew and Brad triumphed, in a great voting spectacle.

CONGRATULATIONS TO DREW AND BRAD
HONORABLE MENTIONS GO TO AGGIE AND AYESHA
