There we are, Down in the River to Pray from Oh Brother Where are Thou
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the starry crown?
Good Lord show me the way!
O sisters let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
O sisters let's go down
Down in the river to pray
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the robe & crown?
Good Lord show me the way
O brothers let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
Come on brothers, let's go down
Down in the river to pray
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the starry crown?
Good Lord show me the way
O fathers let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
O fathers let's go down
Down in the river to pray
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the robe and crown?
Good Lord show me the way
O mothers let's go down
Come on down, don't you wanna go down?
Come on mothers, let's go down
Down in the river to pray
As I went down in the river to pray
Studding about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the starry crown?
Good Lord show me the way
O sinners, let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
O sinners, let's go down
Down in the river to pray
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the robe and crown?
Good Lord show me the way
It's a gorgeous song.

Hallelujah - Rammstein
He is religious and very sensitive
on his wall is a picture of the Lord
he wipes the spots from the Bible
he gladly distributes the Communion
He loves the boys in the choir
they keep their souls pure
but the tenor worries him
so he must be the closest to him *
on his nightstand, quiet and wordless
a picture of the Lord
he slowly turns it around
When the church clock strikes twice
hallelujah
he folds his hands for prayer
hallelujah
he has remained without a wife
hallelujah
so he must love his neighbor *
hallelujah
The young man is allowed to stay with him
the sin nests above the leg
so he gladly helps to exorcize it
to music and candlelight
When the church clock strikes twice
hallelujah
he folds his hands for prayer
hallelujah
he has remained without a wife
hallelujah
so he must love his neighbor *
hallelujah
When the church clock strikes twice
hallelujah
he takes the boy into his prayers
hallelujah
he is the true Christian
hallelujah
and knows what charity is *
hallelujah
Turn around slowly
Turn around
* There is sort of a pun used in this song. When he loves his neighbor, "seinen Nächsten lieben" it is as if he is giving to charity, which is "Nächstenliebe". When it says that he knows what charity is, it is also as if knows what loving his neighbor is. Closest to, "am nächsten", is also part of this pun because it associates being close with neighbors once again, simply because the same word is used.

Great!
Back when I had an automobile, I had Eat a Peach on cassette and dang if those weren't some nice driving tunes
God owes me 30 cent
He borrowed the other day
Until I get my money
He can just go away
Sat by the window with a clutched dome listenin to shorties cuss long
Young girls with weak minds, but they butt strong
Tried to call, or at least beep the lord, but didnt have a touch-tone:whistle:

You think you've suffered? Well you ain't seen shit yet.
The pain won't set in for a long, long time.
I've fought off angels with my hands behind my back.
I've set the heavens all on fire.
Different song, but great lines.

When I'm walking into a new situation (literally walking there), I listen to Southbound on my iPod and walk to the beat, and it makes me feel more confident about myself for some reason.
My friend's tenant was telling us how he and his friend took home a nurse from a nightclub and proceeded to 'ruin' her; ending with his friend having anal sex out on the balcony and using his girlfriend's body lotion as lube.
And then he's having to prepare to be best man for another friend who's only getting married because he thinks it'll stop him 'whoring around'.
It's a little startling to realise that yes, people do think this way, and no, they're not afraid to tell anyone who will listen.

I've stopped feeling guilty about being really rude to people like that.
There's apparently a pretty big gap between my idea of sexual liberation and everyone else's. Mine doesn't include the concept of 'ruining' someone, for one thing.

It's a tricky little course to navigate in the end, isn't it?

Eh, it's not always worth the fight you'd cause, cuz really they don't give a shit what you think.
Being rude to them at least accomplishes getting across the message, "We're not actually friends, so don't tell me this stuff in the future."

I'm pretty cool if they are talking from a distance. My problem is people who want to rub up against me while telling me stuff like that. I knew this guy who would literally stand 3 inches from me and tell me about his icky exploits.

The other annoying part is that I always assume like at least 50% of it is a lie.
"And then she asked me to get the video camera."
Yeah right, man. You were so fucking drunk you probably don't even remember if you got it up or not. But yeah, that girl who screamed VD -- high five man. Can we talk about video games again now?

You bring me closer to God.
Pretty fucking awesome. I concede.

Great!
Ooh, that is a nice song. I have a recording of Alison Krauss and Union Station singing it live. It's really something else.
the john cale version of that song is only available on itunes bundled with the whole scrubs album. Bah!

ahh if it were only that simple. Also that sound track has the saddest version of "You are my sunshine" ever.
The other night dear
as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
but when I awoke dear
I was mistaken
and I held my head and I cried.
...
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine...

And good night.
I think I may both cook an egg and a fish and stack one on top of the other, as if some sort of hedonistic fetish
the kind that doesn't involve sex
you perverts
The knees are still playing up. I think it's God's way of saying my seminar ppaper tomorrow is going to be crap.
Oh well.
Anything interesting happening?
I'm going to sleep.
Night.
she's gone mad with power!

If by power you mean Sushi (don't cook the fish).

Hooray for them! Being young in Portland is pretty rad at the moment, I reckon.

I told her to get a job and steel herself against the perils of drug addiction. My only Portland reference is Drugstore Cowboy.
