Isn’t life shit. The thing I fucking despise the most is the thing we can’t escape and it’s getting worse fast - Adverfuckingtising! No wonder people go round shooting people, I feel like a shooting rampage sometimes when I have been bombarded with CRAP I don’t want. The whole thing stinks, very little advertising of a product is about the merits of that product, it’s all lowlife trickery, getting us to subconsciously like something using sex, or lies, or fuckogg. (weird. I could swear I had a more recent post in ctrl-v) ---

The Grass was wet and there were Puddles of Mud everywhere. Well you Guessed it … I was running for the rope … I could see it in my sights … And as the rope started turning, I turned with it and jumped for it. Straight into the BIGGEST pile of Mud, you have ever seen. The Whole school was there to have a look. I was covered from Head to toe in Mud … The funny thing is thou… it was only on one side of my body … The other side was perfectly clean. > As it turns out the school had to ring my parents for new clothes. But they were unable to reach them. So they then rang the next of kin … Which at the time happened to be my dads mate Wayne … He had 2 kids of his own … So he ended up bring down some clothes. It was a track suit which happen to be 2 size 2 small. It was Grey and red and came only half way up my Arms and Legs … And for the rest of the day The kids had another chance to have a laugh at me .!!! Ah yes, a recent entry from [**Stuckey** ’s blog](http://copyone.blogspot.com). Why that resides in my clipboard, I do not know. F\_X ---

I don’t think you will get sick and die if you leave the stick of butter out. My French class got into a discussion about this once. The teacher said that leaving it out was a “Canadian” thing, and that she thought that out custom of putting it in the refrigerator was silly.
