R.I.PowerPoint

I've been working on the PowerPoint at the Roving Imp for about a couple of months now. But there is a picture on one of the slides that has never really impacted me until tonight. The picture has 6 members of the Roving Imps (they now go by R I Spectacular) playing what looks like the warm-up of "Where have your fingers been?" This picture was taken a little more than 2 years ago because the people who are in it are the main people who were in the group when I started taking classes. It's now 2 years later and there are only 2 of those members left. I won't go into what I've heard about the reasons why some drop out. I'll just say what I know for sure and the most recent 2 that have left were Nifer who moved to Chicago and Patrick who is spending time...along with a job...at KU. And the first 2 that left, I'm not going to go into. But it's now down to just John and Julie...who had been there since the Imp opened. We do have Justin, Chante', Ashley, Hannah (who will be leaving soon), and myself currently who are members of R I Spectacular. The picture has the main people from when I started hanging out there 2 years ago. It's just something I am forced, by who I am, to be effected by.

Robot Parade

Okay, so tonight was my first Robot Parade show since the last Friday in February. This was because I chose to take ONLY Saturday class for level 2. However, as I said earlier this week or maybe last, the Saturday class has been canceled and everyone who was in the Saturday class had been bumped to Monday night class. This was a difficult transition for a few reasons. I won't go into them because I think I've gone into them before recently. But the Arnold was destroied and the Monday class was (fortunately) very welcoming of us...by us, I mean only 2 of us made it to class. That was myself and Steve. Chris is doing Ottowa University stuff for 8 weeks. Shannon teaches high school. And Marti couldn't even make it to class on Saturday sometimes. Nifer moved to Chicago...but since she was in Level 3, she wouldn't be in class anyway because everyone from Level 3 was told to take only Level 3 so that everyone from Saturday could fit into Monday. The Monday night class consisted of Mary, who was there back when I was still part of it in February, Hannah, who is part of R I Spectacular...but also joined Nifer's class about 10 months or so ago, and Greg, who was also in Nifer's class for a long time.
Anyway, tonight was our show. Thankfully, Steve and I got to perform after having only 2 classes this month...the 7th and the 23rd. This was also Hannah's last Robot Parade show. She's moving to England on the 17th of September for school.
By the way, you know how many people are leaving us lately? Nifer moved to Chicago. Hannah's leaving to go to England. Patrick is offically leaving the Imp to work and study at KU. Patrick came out of the green room at one point and said, "I can't believe you're in R I Spectacular and I'm leaving." I said, "I can't believe you're leaving by your own choice."
Anyway, the show was a lot of fun. I didn't feel confident playing this one game of Fairy Tale News Cast. This was based upon some bad expierences I had during the rehearsals of it.
DISCLAIMER: the bad expierences were probably in my head. So I told John before the show that I felt a lack of confidence in myself in that game. It was a good thing I did. Turns out he had more confidence in me for that game than I did. My lack of confidence didn't change anything.
I wound up being paired with Hannah as one of the news anchors. The fairy tale was Sleeping Beauty. Steve was the "in the field" reporter and Mary was the interviewee. At one point, she told about Sleeping Beauty eating a bite of an apple and falling asleep. The only thing that came into my head was...is Mary confusing Sleeping Beauty and Snow White? When it came back, I said, "This just in: apples are the best way to get girls to sleep."

By the way, back when I was doing graphic designs for shows, I did this picture (which took me a long time to put everything together too by the way) for Robot Parade. It's only fitting to put it up for the blog entry dedicated to it:


Anyway, I updated my facebook status about the show saying that I "would change nothing about Robot Parade tonight; except for it would've been nice if someone was in the audiance who couldn't be. But I wouldn't change anything about the show itself. I'm quite happy about it."
Tell me, does it look like I'm refering to someone inparticular here. If it is, I've got a feeling that nobody is going to know who it is I was thinking about when I typed it. I hesitated posting it because I had the feeling that everyone might think I was refering to someone else...then again, the only people I invited who were able to make it were my mom and grandma. I did however get a call this morning from a friend who said they wouldn't be able to make it. I very much appriciated them calling to tell me they couldn't. It was as though they cared enough about my feelings and how I feel/think of them to let me know ahead of time as opposed to just not show up.
I was actually kind of refering to her. I wanted her to show up. She couldn't and she let me know, but I still wish she could have. But in the meantime, I'm not really JUST limiting it to her. I wish others could have been there tonight also who couldn't show up because stuff like can't find a babysitter, or they live to far away, or any number of reasons that they didn't have when they said they would. But oh well. I've got more of a show on the 18th and they get to participate in the jam that night if they want to.

George Washington is THE TERMINATOR

So I got this dollar bill about a week ago in change and it had been ripped at George Washington's eye. Therefore, I couldn't help but do the following:

Genius: The Best of Warren Zevon

This is the third Warren Zevon album to carry a Greatest Hits name with it. The first 2 were "A Quiet Normal Life" and "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead (An Anthology)" "A Quiet Normal Life" can barely be called a greatest hits because it's limited by the fact that it came out in 1986 and only has 5 studio albums out of 14 to pull from. Yes, I'm including The Wind in that total even though all greatest hits were out before The Wind was released. "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead (An Anthology)" is bigger and pulls from not just 12 albums, but previously unreleased material and some TV programs that Warren Zevon sang for the opening credits. Genius is purely a Greatest Hits compilation that pulls from 11 albums. It doesn't pull from any live albums and, unfortunately, pales when it comes to some albums. But it's a sampling of the Warren Zevon library leading upto 2002 (the same year as My Ride's Here came out) put onto 1 CD. And it was also the 2nd Warren Zevon album I ever got. The first was The Wind. I would listen to this album a lot my first semester commuting back and forth to KU during the week. To be completely honest, I would have been happy if there were some previously unreleased songs on it. But at the time I got it, it was one of the most intriging albums I ever listened to and it has brought me hours of entertainment.

Texting

So, I've been a little happy lately. I've been sad also. I had a good day today but a horrible night last night. I had gotten to sleep around 10:45pm. This is early for me by 4-7 hours or so. But then, I woke up around 1:30am and couldn't get back to sleep...that was until 7:30am when I finished a text message I was revising all night. I was sending a text message because time had run out to see the person I wanted to say something to and also, I just didn't want to send the message through facebook. That seems to be a jerk thing to do. So I worked with a text. And re-worked it. Then I re-worked it again. Wanting to get everything said when you're limited to 160 charicters (which just has to include spaces) is really nerve racking. It reminded me of a project we had in an improv class back at the beginning of the month that consisted of two word lines. The objective was to get rid of everything with the exception of the MOST IMPORTANT WORDS.
Unfortunately, texting doesn't make that easy. I could say, "I hope to see you soon!" That uses 23 of the 160 charicter limit. If I were to say "Hey, let me know when you are leaving for the show tonight," I just used 58 charicters. I can shorten that down by saying, "Hey, let me no when u r leaving 4 the show 2nite," and I have it down to about 48. That only removes 10 charicters. You can get "hey" down to "Ha" but then it might read like "HA!" like you're laughing. Texting charicters is like moments spent with a loved one. Every charicter should count. Unfortunately, shortening all the important stuff to fit 160 charicters can caused the reader to read it a different way than you intended.
Now for the sake of my purpose in writing this text, I'll say that this is what happened. I tried to send a text around 8:50 the night before. Dealing with the 160 charicter limit, I shortened it so that just the most important stuff stood out. Unfortunately, the "most important stuff" didn't even scratch at the surface of what I wanted to say...or it came out sounding weird or creepy to the reader. Therefore, I never received a text back which I was hoping for some comment.
After working on it from about 2am in the morning to about 7:30am, I had reworded it to the point that it didn't say anything about what I was wanting but said everything about why I was wanting it. Anyway who reads this blog on a regular basis who doesn't come here following a Warren Zevon video link from YouTube might know who I'm talking about with this text. For those who don't, I felt like I lost a friend last week in a they're dead type of way. They didn't die, wrather they suddenly moved away and never bothered to say bye or anything. I finally got a reply back about 7:30 after sending it when I said what I felt like and then, I was happy. I didn't get to do what I wanted to do, but they did know I cared. And then, I was happy enough so I was able to sleep.

Bottom line, if someone moves away or otherwise you won't see them again but they're still alive, sending a message over facebook is like when Sprint laid off their workers through e-mail a few years ago. It's better if you can see them. But if that's not do-able, then texting can allow you to say what you want said...provided you can say it in 160 charicters or less. But for this purpose, I don't REALLY like texting either.

Now one last thing, in a round about way, this is related: I had my first show with R. I. Spectacular last Saturday night. The Saturday afternoon class has been shut down due to scheduleings and a lack of instructors at the Roving Imp. This Saturday class was the ONLY improv class 2 years ago when I joined. (This weekend would be my 2 year anniversary class show). Now, it's no more and everyone from class who can make it is now in the Monday night class. This was heartbreaking but at the same time, releaving because as I found out before the show that night, I had a lot of energy.
Also, it was nice because I finally got to be in a show with Hannah again before she moves to England for school next month. It was bittersweet because it was also the first night of shows that Nifer was 100% gone. She has moved to Chicago and we will see her no more except for once a month starting in October. In fact, speaking of improv friends moving, a friend of mine from high school who I've been seeing a few times in Stitch Tactics is officially moving to upstate New York and never coming back. I was fortunate enough to see her last show before she left to tell her fairwell personally. If you couldn't tell by my first few paragraphs, the ability to actually say bye to someone personally is important to me.

Anyway, I don't want to end this on a sad note. So I'm going to post some pics from Saturday's show:

Okay, that was more entertaining than my last survey. I hope you enjoied it.

Karma

Okay, so I don't really know much about Karma or how it works. But someone told me recently that I had built up some good Karma for myself for the things I've been doing for others (like giving rides to those whos' cars won't work). I'm waiting for that good Karma to kick in. It seems things have been becoming suckier and suckier and so either that good Karma has been put away in a Karma bank or, in the process of giving rides, I injured the earth more so the Karma balanced out. If I did save any up, I'd like to know where it is. And if it's merely waiting for me to take some kind of action, I don't know what that is. So, if anything, if it would be worth it, I think I'd like to hand it over to someone who desperately needs some good Karma because it doesn't seem to be doing anything for me and if I can pass it off to someone who can use it, I'd rather do that.
Or maybe I used it up in July...what with Hitchhicker's Guide getting picked for reading and getting in R.I.Spectacular.
I've also been treated like a jerk lately around people or something. There were at least 3 times I commented on someone's status on facebook...not anything offencive...and it would get deleted. So maybe I've been a jerk also and therefore, I've got normal Karma that's balanced out.
But I don't know if that's how it works because I don't know how Karma works.

100 Post

I had my 100th post last night. I wish I could have given it the pomp&circumstance it could have possably deserved. Unfortunately, there were more pressing matters to type about. So in light of that, let me grant some pomp&circumstance to my 101st blog entry.
Unfortunately, I went to YouTube and couldn't find a video of a rocking version of Pomp&Circumstance that I actually liked. Not really feeling in the mood to go looking for one I do like, I decided to post a guitar version of a tune I do like. Here you go:

You Know What's Annoying? 002

You know what's annoying? Rumors.
A rumor, or rumour if you don't know how to spell right, is a lie that get's started out of jeliousy, boredom, an over active imagination, or the plane and simple desire to be cruel or to be stupid. Likewise, the person who blindly believes a rumor without any proof is also pretty dimwhitted and stupid.
Here's an example of a rumor:

Actor Hugh Jackman was seen running into actress Dakota Fanning on the sidewalk yesterday. Us at the hoity toity celebraty magazine thinks that Dakota Fanning is far too young to be ran into by Hugh Jackman because Hugh Jackman is an adult. But they are both in movies so they will probably get married.

This is the typical celebraty gossip that can be turned around into a rumor with no proof. Hugh Jackman, in this scenerio, running into a child actress on the street would not lead to wedding bells. I'm sorry very stupid celebraty magazines. They just don't work that way. They only thing in this that would have been a fact if it were true, would be the running into eachother randomly. However, I just made it all up...all of it...so it is, in fact a rumor and has no basis in reality.
Now, sometimes, rumors can also lead to the demise of someone. In this article, yes it's from Wikipedia, but since it's about rumors, it's okay if the info isn't exactly accurate, we read how rumors lead to the downfall and very small upcline of actor/commidian Fatty Arbuckle:

In 1921 Arbuckle threw a party during Labor Day weekend. Bit player Virginia Rappe became ill at the party and died days later. Soon Arbuckle was accused of raping and accidentally killing Rappe, enduring three widely publicized trials for manslaughter. His films were subsequently banned, his career was ruined, and he was publicly ostracized. Though he was acquitted by a jury and received a written apology, the trial's scandal has mostly overshadowed his legacy as a pioneering comedian.[1] Though the ban on his films was eventually lifted, Arbuckle only worked sparingly through the 1920s. In 1932 he began a successful comeback, which he briefly enjoyed before his death in 1933.

Now, the reason that rumors are annoying (I say annoying because phrases I want to use might not be family friendly) is because they are started by cowards, believed by idiots, tarnish the reputation of people involved and, believe it or not, effect those who either aren't involved or are involved by proxy.

I heard about a real rumor, one I will not repeat here, a while back that at the time, was old and I assumed was dead. Apparently, this rumor has been resurected. The people who are involved are hurt.
Rumors can be summed up with the following:

rumors are answers for the weak.

rumors are also weapons of the cowardly and believed by the stupid. Anyone who believes rumors blindly without proof are idiots

It's because rumors are "secret" that they have power.

"How do rumors get started, they're started by the jealous people...."

A rumor is only a rumor because it's not true. If it were true, it wouldn't be a rumor. My logic migh...t be off somewhere but the fact that it's a rumor makes it not true.

A few of these are mine but not all. My reason for posting these is because I personally feel like, if people don't realize what a rumor is, then the rumor has power and assumed to be true. If you can recognize when a rumor is a rumor, then you can recognize when the jerk-off who's starting it IS in fact the jerk-off starting it or the idiot follower is the idiot follower. Always remember that your turth lies with you and if you have that truth, it can't be taken away by a jerk-off with more speaking power.

The past couple of days

For starters, I'm going to say that on Wednesday morning, I got my laundry done and I also finished reading the book I'LL SLEEP WHEN I'M DEAD: THE DIRTY LIFE AND TIMES OF WARREN ZEVON. Other than that, Wednesday was a slow day. Wednesday night, I went to the Roving Imp to work on the Powerpoint and to read this book called SINGULARITY.

Thursday, I had to do some shopping for my grandma...like get milk and what not. She also needed to know what time Bank Of America closed. Yes, the Bank of America pictured here. She called up the bank but all she got was a recording in which she had to provide her social security number (well, last 4 digits anyway), and the zip code to her house. All she wanted to do was have a human tell her what time the bank closed. But Bank of America is loaded with idiots who probably don't even know what time they close themselves.
By the way, can Bank Of America get mad at me for saying this about them. Sure. But I don't care. They've screwed Americans over enough. They begged for a big bail out and then just blew that money on a personal jet. Would I be going too far to say they should be called Bank of Alcida? Okay, maybe. I'll just end my Bank of America bashing by calling them idiots.
Anyway, I went there and drove by the bank's front door/window to get a glimps of their closing time. It's 5pm on weekdays. Do they know that? I don't know, they're loaded with idiots. But I'm passed that rant. I parked the car and called my grandma to notify her of the closing time. This took an extra 15 minutes of driving and calling time I wouldn't have had to do if they weren't...I'm past that rant. Anyway, it was 106 or something and I was sitting in my car trying to call my grandma to notify her of the time that they closed.

Here's what I said on facebook:

David spyed on a bank today. His mission: Find for his grandma the time they closed. Information she couldn't get from the recorded humans when she called. He feels like such a bad boy...a bad, sweaty boy.
Some comments I got:
Chris said: :\
Jeremy said: This makes me want to delete my Facebook account. And my brain.
Tom said: LOL @ David and Jeremy both.
I finally replied: All I can say is that everyone has their reasons for disliking Bank of America. This being the bank that my grandma was wanting to find out when they closed but had to provide her social security number and house zip code and still couldn't talk to a person to find out the time the bank closed is her reason for hating Bank Of America.

I came home, showered, shaved, headed to pick my friend Zach up for a ride to his grandma's place...his car is broken down. But first, he got me a meal from his job at Los Cabos at the Legends.

Then I headed to the Roving Imp for Coma rehearsal. Then I stayed to watch the rehearsal of the new, reformatted Dimensional Rift. Then, for Biblioclast tomorrow (well, tonight anyway), we watched Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Then a few of us who were still left went up to the roof and watched the meteor shower. Then after awhile, we all dispersed, I got home, took care of some business on here and typed this. Now that I'm up-to-date on this and I don't want a weird moment like in the movie Spaceballs after they had fast forwarded, I'll go ahead, post this, and log off.

July

Okay, well, this is August and I haven't really given an overview of the month of July yet. So here it goes:
1) Forth of July, we started the watching of Star Trek Enterprise (season 1 so technically just ENTERPRISE) at the Roving Imp Theater.
2) Finished reading the Harry Potter series. I had started The Deathly Hallows June 30th and was finished reading it by the 6th or 7th of July.
3) Had the last Dimensional Rift show I will be in. It's not the last D.R. but John is switching things up. But I did make it into R. I. Spectacular! Yea!
4) I finally got my friend from StitchTactics to come see my show on the 31st. I almost didn't get her because she's moving to New York in less than a month.
5) I got my oil changed in the car.
6) I got my book choice read...Hitchhicker's Guide To The Galaxy...on read out loud Wednesday.
7) I finished the album overview for Warren Zevon's Mr. Bad Example.
8) I started giving Steve a ride from his place to the theater due to the fact that his car has been in the shop and the actual owner hasn't been taking care of it.
9) I saw the Vagina Monologues at the Barn Players. Denise, that's John's wife, was in it and invited us all to see it.

I can't remember much else, so I'll leave it at that.

Quantum Trek

So, I found out tonight that an iMac and an Apple are not the same thing. I thought they were like saying that a Chevrolet and a Chevy were the same thing. As it turns out, it's like saying that a Chevy and a Malibu are the same thing. In reality, Apple is the company and iMac was the product.
By the way, I'm very much a PC.

Oh, and in honor of watching Star Trek Enterprise at the Roving Imp on Sundays now, here's an Enterprise/Quantum Leap mesh I found at YouTube.

Survey 002

Okay, so I decided to post another survey. This is a wind down before I go to bed. I had a horrible Sunday and I'll be taking it out on this Survey. I hope you find it ammusing. If not, I hope you find yourself better off than I am.

This survey gets a little personal; can you handle it?
I've had more personal ones. Truely. You should have seen some that I did on MySpace.

If you married the last person you texted, what would your last name be?
I'm a guy. No matter who I texted, my last name would be the same.

Were you happy when you woke up today?
Of course. I was an f'ng rainbow this morning. Okay, no I take that back. I was actually happier this morning.

What were you doing yesterday?
Improv...the only thing I find myself happy doing.

What's the last thing you put in your mouth?
Maybe water. That's my best guess.

When were you on the phone last? And with who?
I have no idea right now. Friday, I called home to get help finding a location. This afternoon, Zach called me to help him out with something on Facebook.

Have a best friend?
Believe it or not, yes.

Are you scared to fall in love?
Seriously, what is with this question? It always asks if someone is scared to fall in love but I've never seen one that asks if anyone is scared of rejection. That would be the more logical question to ask. And by the way, to that question, yes.

Do you think teenagers can be in love?
I don't doubt anyone's capacity to love. What I doubt is a person's capacity to know what to do about it. I don't think teenagers are mature enough to really know how to handle being in love. But I don't doubt their capacity to be in love.

Last person you wanted to punch in the face?
I plead the 1st. Oh wait, that would be telling. I plead the fifth.

What time is it right this second?
3:07 and 40 seconds.

What do you want right now?
for it to be an hour earlier.

Who was the last person you took a picture with?
Hilary. She was at the Roving Imp last night.

Are you single/taken/heartbroken/or confused?
Something like that.

When was the last time you cried?
I almost cried during Denise's part in The Vagina Monologues.

Do you have a good relationship with your parents?
At times

Do you find it hard to trust others?
I don't like to admit it but I sometimes do.

How fast does your mind change?
I give up. How fast?

I bet you miss somebody right now?
Okay, you know what. This is another one of those questions you ask over and over and over, survey question asker. Why does it matter if I miss somebody right now. I miss a lot of people. What's the big deal to ask a survey question about it?

Can you honestly say you're okay right now?
No! I wouldn't be doing this survey if I were okay right now. I said I'm using it to unwind. I guess I should have looked at the questions better.

Why do you think so many people cheat?
Some because they think they're actually all that but in reality they just want to take what they already have for granted as though they're always going to have it so what's wrong with a little more on the side type of attitude.

Tell me what's on your mind?
Tell you what's on my mind? I don't even know what's on my mind. If I were to take what's on my mind and put it down here, it's just going to be gibberish for the reader and that's not the way I'm personally used to playing chain-death-murder.

What are you looking forward to in the three months?
Halloween is coming up in about 3 months. Before that, there is the KC Improv Festival. There is also an improv jam coming up in September. And before too aweful long, I'll be in an R. I. Spectacular show.

Something around 100 or so. I'm guessing.

When is your next road trip?

Do you have someone of the opposite sex you can tell anything to?
I wish. Everytime I think I do, I never hear from them again or they would just rather not hear my voice.

How's your heart?
It's probably clogged from all the cholesterol I've had in my life. I don't eat as much as I used to eat so hopefully it's improving. Now, you want to hear how my spleen is doing?

I don't know. I was hoping it would relax me so I could go to sleep but it's not doing the trick.

Boxer shorts and a tee-shirt.

Not really if I can help it.

I was returning to the Roving Imp after returning Steve home after the shows.

When was the last time you laughed really hard?
Last night during the improv shows.

Would you marry someone 8 years older than you?
I don't know. I've always been interested in younger girls. Not in a sick perverted teenager way (except for when I was a teenager that is). That's just how I always understood it is that the guy marries women who are younger than him.

Can you go in public looking like you do?
No. I'm in my underpants.

Yeah, actually

Will tomorrow be better than today?
Only if we can get 4 people for Trivia.

Does it bother you when someone lies to you?
Off stage, yes. On stage it doesn't matter because it's just a part.

Is there anyone who understands your relationship status?
Yes. It's "single." What part of "single" would anyone have trouble understanding.

Are you a naturally happy person? Or is your happiness forced?
Do I look f**king happy? Man, I think I was happier before I took this survey...if that was even possable.
I'm through with this now. Good night!
