Visceraman1 - Joshua Lopez

(Ed. I was going to publish another anti-community, anti-kid article but when I looked up and saw the image of Christ in the dust covering the ceiling fan blade.....well.....WWKD?

The holidays are nearly over. Or, depending how you look at them, just beginning. I used to dislike New Years quite a bit. Too pretentious, too "Las Vegasy", (which for those readers who haven't had the opportunity to see Tucsonans act "Vegasy", well....you really are lucky. )

My New Years activity has been the same for the last few years now. Each year I look forward to it more and more. I make practical resolutions: leave Tucson, go horseback riding, hope for a raise, play as many games as possible, eat lots of fried and fatty foods, check out Sugarhill, learn lots of anatomy, have fun dissecting, be a good friend (which, is much easier now that the list has narrowed itself down considerably, and most importantly, remember to love and value the wife every day.

Yes, Jeri and Dr. Brooks would both say "Um....that's fine, but what about your medicine?"

Kerry would say "Sugarhill's fine, but what about the burro?"

New Year's is the only holiday that Jeri and I have any traditions yet. Those are:

• Game and craft independently
• Game together
• Eat like Christ is coming in the morning
• Drink champagne and dance, dance, dance

My neglect of the visceraman1 community this last week, has not been because I don't like them, rather I've had nothing to say, and when staring at the page, I realize I hate the layout. There's just something about the layout that I don't like, I'm not sure what exactly I don't like about it, but I don't like it. (I should bring this up at the next meeting with my psychiatrist:

I've decided I really don't like my new layout, and because of that can't be bothered to write anything."

"Oh?"

"Right, I don't like it"

"So you don't like your new layout then?"

"Right."

"Why do you think that is?"

"I uh really have no idea, there's just something about it."

"I see. What don't you like about it?"

"I can't put my finger on it, there's just something wrong with it."

"Oh?"

"What are you writing?"

"So, you don' like your layout, but you're not sure what it is you don't like?"

"Right"

"Why do you think that is?"

"Huh?"

"What do you think is wrong with it?"

"Can I color in the book again?"

So long story short, there will be something new in the works over the next couple of weeks. Meanwhile, I will turn the story writing over to Kerry, who has offered to share his translation of Rudyard Kipling's, "The Just So Stories" with you.

Granted, I should have just waited until the weekend to start making my changes but no, I thought I would go ahead and give things a go. Which reminds me....earlier in the week I mentioned to K-Dog, that I was going to be making some changes, and said something along the lines of "that really just means I'm going to fuck things up". And yes, things are a bit fucked up around here. Things were finally starting to come together, until I cracked open Internet Explorer to see how things were shaping up in that piss poor but highly prevalent browser. Internet Explorer, need I say more? Back to the drawing board for a bit. Please be patient.

**Updated: Ok so Internet Explorer 7.0, does support the image swap I needed. Fine. But....how many people are going to have updated?

And furthermore, what does K-Dog run on that Commodore of his....I saw him slip something into the tape drive once, and it was NOT QBert.
