[random thoughts]

just read a news headline announcing that another 7 us soldiers were killed in iraq, and it dawned on me how asymmetrical the conflict actually was: normally to make headlines, you'd need either a very unexpected conflict, or massive numbers of casualties, far more than just 7. but the headlines never mention the number of iraqis killed. im sure it's usually higher, but the world just doesn't care. life is cheap in some places, sure, but this brings numbers into the equation: one american life is worth 10, maybe more, iraqi ones. life has never seemed more unfair.

'holidays' have started: thats about the time i start getting to work. :/

kinda left off updating the blog for a real long time - lab project is squeezing the life out of me, so there's no time for the long, ruminating posts that i so adore. no siree, just a quick wave *hello!* and to say that i've got myself a fancy new phone (Nokia N73) with a crazy unlimited internet plan that allows me to use skype, msn, stream net radio, listen to podcasts and surf on my phone. if you see me on skype or msn, say hello :) i might well be on my phone! :)

Babyshambles - **** Forever

---

What I'm saying, what I'm saying
What's the use between death and glory?
I can't tell between death and glory
Happy endings, they never bored me
Happy endings, they still don't bore me
But they, they have a way
They have a way to make you pay
And to make you toe the line
Sever the ties
Oh I'm so clever
But clever ain't wise

**** forever
If you don't mind
Oh can we **** forever?
Good pal of mine, of mine, of mine, of mine, of mine

Oh whats to tell between death and glory?
Whats to tell between death and glory?
New lab-our and Tory
Pergatory and no happy families

Oh, so what I'm saying
What I'm saying
No, it's not the same
It's not supposed to be the same
Oh, I'll tell you about the way
The way they make you pay
And to make you toe the line
Sever the ties
Oh, you're so clever, oh yeah
But you're not very nice

So I say **** forever
If you don't mind
Cause I'm stuck forever
Stuck in your mind, your mind, your mind,
Do you mind?

Oh they have a way
A way to make you pay
And a way to make you toe the line
Sever the ties
Oh so clever
And so very wise

So **** forever
If you don't mind
I'm stuck forever
In your mind, your mind, your mind,
Do you mind?
