What Movie Are You In?

Written by: MichaelNYC, on 2/23/2010

You’ve probably heard the expression “The ends justify the means”. It pops up a lot in action movies with a “rage against the machine” connotation. The hard-boiled cop with a heart of gold is arguing with the police chief about how to handle a case. The police chief – probably a bit overweight and definitely a stickler for regulations – insists that they handle this “by the book”. Our hero angrily (or with an eerie sense of calm, depending on the character) places his shield and gun on the desk and walks out. He knows the only way he’ll crack this case is to capture and torture the perp and he can only do that out from under the oppressive thumb of the establishment. Even though he secretly deplores the horrible things he’ll have to do to get justice, he WILL do them and he WILL ge... Read More

30 is the new 30

Written by: aclassicdisposition, on 1/19/2010


So, I’ve been putting off writing this (aka procrastinating) because I made yet another major move in my life and felt I should gain some posterity before it was possible for me to comment on life at all.

I’m 29 ½, which means staring 30 dead in the face. Though most of my friends have already passed this major milestone, some are in my shoes exactly. Which shoes are those exactly? Well we are somewhere between Vans and Manolos, we know we must put on that more serious shoe and face the world, grow up and get ourselves a SERIOUS career, but we still really love our Vans, they are cute, comfy, chic in any situation and versatile, we like versatile, we love change and Manolo’s symbolize staying power, commitment, financial stability and maturity.

Here we are... Read More

Fate Blows Hardest On A Bleeding Heart

Posted by: Kahlerm, on 2/23/2010

Sorrow, a wretched scorn
Tortures my weak heart.
isolation, prolonged captivity,
My suffering is endless.
My soul, afraid and alone
Wanders the frozen corridors
In this evil dungeon.
Oh, how I long for the
Warmth of firey Hell.
For this jail is far worse
Than the eternal fire.

Love is the cause of my torture.
Its sensual kiss, bringing me joy
Until it abandoned my caring arms;
Betraying my callow mirth and
Serpentining its craven attack.

Now I wallow with an empty soul,
cracked and broken by past happiness.
Exiled from my loving home,
I drag myself through the worst of man.
I honored this love with my life
Only to be thrown to the wolves.

My hollow sanctuary, an ... Read More

UNANSWERABLE

Posted by: ragzbuthappy, on 2/23/2010

I love my GOD, but there are so many questions that no one can answer for me. My dad is a Pastor, so I've been raised in church my whole life. Even he can't find the answers. In no way am I doubting Him, but if you really think about it how DID the world start. How did he do it? He's been here forever and will be here for eternity, but it hurts my brain when I try to answer it myself haha. I think there are some things in the Bible God did'nt include which may have been the answers I'm looking for. But in time, I will still strongly believe in Him. He is my Savior and is always there.... Read More
