Stop This Train - John Mayer

If you haven't already noticed I placed a mp3 player on the right. Try it out.

This is a song off of his new album Continuum.
Here are the lyrics in case you are deaf ;)

No, I'm not colorblind
I know the world is black and white
I try to keep an open mind
But I just can't sleep on this tonight

Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?

Don't know how else to say it
I don't want to see my parents go
One generation's length away
From fighting life out on my own

Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?

So scared of getting older
I'm only good at being young
So I play the numbers game
To find a way to say that life has just begun

Had a talk with my old man
Said "help me understand"
He said "turn sixty-eight
You renegotiate"

"Don't stop this train
Don't for a minute change the place you're in
Don't think I couldn't ever understand
I tried my hand
John, honestly we'll never stop this train"

Once in awhile, when it's good
It'll feel like it should
And they're all still around
And you're still safe and sound
And you don't miss a thing
Till you cry when you're driving away in the dark
Singing

Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
Cause now I see I will never stop this train

Disillusioned

I have said what I needed to say. That is all.

Uh Oh.

If this guy ever takes power we are in allot of trouble. If he does I would suggest fake baking to look as dark as possible.

Frank the Tank.

This weekend I got drunk a total of three times (for the record I’m not proud of it). Friday after school, then again Friday night, and Saturday night albeit ad hoc, kind of a spur the moment thing. Today is Sunday and I feel like a sack of rubbish. However I am still in a very good mood. My head, back, and ego hurts a little bit after making an ass out of myself Saturday night. I guess we are all entitled to have those weekends sooner or later.

I would like to thank Dana for giving me a ride home, because I’m pretty sure he could have dropped me off at some random house and I would have thought it was my own. I then probably would have attempted to break in to that house then get arrested and end up in drunk tank for the night with a large black/native man named bubba/flying bear moccasin rabbit too too. Luckily this was not the case.

Details to Entirety.

Have you ever stopped to think about inanimate objects; although lifeless they are yet still in some way connected to another human being at the other end of the scope. For example the clothes you wear the car you drive all were in one way linked to a man, woman or even child who put their work into making these objects so they can feed themselves or perhaps their family. I wonder what stories they have to tell or experiences they’ve been through.

It is very upsetting to hear about the thousands of rapes and deaths in Africa but I can only imagine it is truly horrific to personally experience something like that first hand. After all these are men, women and children that are suffering they are not just statistics, they are human beings just like us who feel pain in the same way we do. I was watching a CNN program a little while ago about the brutality that goes on against women in Congo. They had said hundreds of new rapes occur every week, but only 10 soldiers and militants have been convicted of rape since 2002. That’s because it is the soldiers that are committing these selfish acts, they are the ones with the authority, the guns.

I think most of us will agree that the emotions we can feel as humans will always seem to be immense at the time and feel larger and more important than anything else in the world. Maybe sometimes we need to take a step back and look at ourselves in a more holistic fashion, that way ever little crack in our life’s won’t seem so big in comparison to others who have suffered far worse.

Some might say does any one of us really matter in the grand scheme of the universe. However small we might be in this universe we do have purpose, and that purpose is dependent in those others that depend on you. We live for each other, our families, friends, and that special someone who loves you as much as you them.

Sometimes life can be overwhelming and at times disheartening, but I know goodness will never be outweighed.

Funny Dutch Commercial.

Since I am a crazy dutch bastard, I thought it would be appropriate posting a dutch commercial.

Family guy is Awesome.

If you don't laugh in the first 2 minutes I will buy you an Ice cream cone. Seriously.

New York New York!

This summer me, my brother, mom and dad went on a vacation of two weeks to Southern Ontario, Manchester NH, Boston MA, the Cape RI and of course New York New York. It was a blast and a great experience. We took lots of pictures so I figured I would share some of them. Enjoy :)

Surrounding area flying in to Boston airport from Toronto.














Boston Logan Airport FYI-(the airport that terrorists boarded and crashed the planes into the WTC's.














New Hampshire Roads. Exciting.













My dad wanted to see the ocean so we drove for about and hour thru smaller towns like this one.




























We went to the coast twice. This was the first time. Later was on the Cape.














We took the bus from Manchester NH to Providence RI. Rented a SUV and drove to Cape Cod.










































That erect monument you see is the 'Pilgrim monument' we got to climb to the top ‘Piece of cake really’. Also that monument is located in the town called Provincetown and it’s pretty much the gayest town in the world no joke. There are butches and bitches everywhere. I ask my brother what’s gayer then two men in bright clothing flying a kite? He replied ‘what?’ I said ‘Five men licking ice cream viciously in an ice cream shop’ I was actually scarred, they were raping me with their eyes.

OMG! a Polar Bear.














So we drove back to Providence droped of our SUV then jumped on the train to New York City.














This is a picture of our hotel lobby the "Park Central Hotel'' we stayed there for 3 nights.














After we checked in. We walked to and around Central Park. It was Beautiful.

I know I'm a perve but actually the funny thing is my dad pointed her out, I just took the picture.














My rents standing on the famous 'Bow Bridge' it's used in all the romantic movies like 'You've got mail' and so many others.














My bro wanted to see the 'Straberry Fields' tribute to John Lennon so we did.














After walking everywhere in the park we went to a space dome show (pretty impressive) at the science centre just outside of central park.














My bro doing a Donald Trump 'you're fired' impression in front of the Trump towers. On the right me trying the same thing but I ended up just choking on the harsh New York air, litterally.














That night we went and walked around time square. Lots and Lots of plp on the sidewalks, but after a while you just get used to it.














I dunno who this guy was weird... First up close glimpse of the Empire State Build.














Oh Snap! the 50 and his horse.














The next day we got to stand in line for about and 1 1/2 hours to go up the Empire state building. It was worth it.















On the left is the Chrysler building and the right the U.N building.

Here's Mr. Gorilla, more like Mr. I need to wear deodorant on a hot day, because he stunk something fierce.








Visibility was not the best that day bust you can still make out central park in the distance.









The World Trade Centres would have been smack dab in the middle of this picture. FYI that is the buisiness district of NYC.









We then took a cab to the WTC grounds it was pretty sad.
On the left is a picture of a steel cross left standing after the buildings went down.









We then walked over to and on to the Brooklyn Bridge.























The church where John F Kennedy Jr. was married and had his funeral service.





















Some pictures from the Staton Island ferry.














Self Eplanatory.














We left New York by train and arrived in Niagra Falls 14 hours later.














The rest of our trip we visted my dads family in Ontario who we rarely see, that was for me and I know my dad equally as fun as all the other th
ings we had done on the trip.
