from a post-it note,
to a poem that wrote,
nuts and butts.
defensed me like a moat.

out i lashed.
friendships i crashed.
thought twice of my vice,
and to the offense i dashed.

made a public apology,
on some web technology.
so dear and sincere,
should've majored in psychology.

coming to you now,
with a raised brow.
in all seriousness,
what now?

dear luke,

sorry for falsely accusing you of wrong doing.  please forgive me.

sincerely,
langdon.

     i forgot to mention that i played some golf this weekend at ocean view golf course in norfolk.  it's a decent public course and i did pretty well until it got too dark to play around the 16th.  we started off the round at 3pm.  it was a nice day, the sun was shining, the birds were singing, and we're waiting by our first shots on the first hole for the group ahead of us to get off the green.  all of a sudden we hear a thud behind us.  the next thing we know, ben gets hit in the back by a bouncing ball.  he wasn't hurt, though needless to say the morons behind us just shouldn't have been hitting.  so we stomped their ball into the ground just to spite them for being such idiots, and not even alerting us to an incoming ball.

     so continuing on our round, we play a few more holes and make it to the 5th or 6th hole.  it's my 2nd or 3rd shot sitting on the right side of the fairway.  there's water to the right, a good 30 yards of it, and the 18th hole beyond that.  i hop out of the cart, grab my club, and step up to the ball to take some practice swings.  all of a sudden i hear "FORE".  now, when you're on a golf course and you hear the word "fore" yelled, you typically don't get too frantic.  only because of the fact that the chance of a ball actually hitting you is slim to none.  so i took a look back at the tee of the hole i'm standing on, and there's no one there.  slightly confused, i look right, then left.  and i see it.  on the 18th hole, about 3 guys are standing there, one waving his arms, but all three staring straight at me and ben.  i get a little worried, and sort of take a few steps toward the cart and kind of cringe/duck.  all of a sudden -- WHAM.  a friggin' ball hits me right on the back from at least 150 yards away.  it was a little painful, but didn't hinder my golf playing abilities any.  but honestly.  get a little bit of freaking skill before you go out on the course and hook the ball onto the next freaking hole and hit someone.  i need to join some private club where there aren't a bunch of idiots hitting people every few holes.

let's say you went to a restaurant.
let's say the service sucked.
let's say everyone that you were with was completely unhappy about:

  a) the waiter or waitress
  b) the cook
  c) the air temperature

taking all of this into consideration, do you think that the standard 10% tip was well earned?  you might think so.  perhaps because the cook and the air temperature wasn't the fault of the waiter or waitress.  however.  let's assume the restaurant works off a tip-share basis.  this is where the waiters and waitresses make a little more per hour, but at the end of the night all tips are thrown into a bucket and then split up evenly between cooks, bartenders, waiters, waitresses, hosts, and hostesses.  do you think the standard 10% tip is deserved in that case?  i  d o n ' t.  therefore, i will tip what was well deserved by all contributing members of the restaurant.

if someone has a problem with that.  perhaps they shouldn't stoop to such levels as to post it on their web site that i help them host.  and perhaps they shouldn't be redundant in what they say, when they call someone "self-conceited".  because hey...  let's break down the words here.

  self: pertaining to one's own self
  conceit: a favorable and especially unduly high opinion of one's own abilities or worth.

hmm.  thanks for being a friend, assface.

new pics.

new slideshow stuff.

langdon X.
breakin necks.
by flexin' pecks.
bigger than tex.
got more green than gex.
k?  so hit the decks.

i tried to do it.  tried to clean up the site of all the wtc coverage.  it's not good to dwell on it.  not good at all.  but i had to comment on this.

could anyone be much more of a big fat, ignorant, naive, moronic, and down-right stupid asshole?

i sincerely doubt it.

who brings you atowers unreleased designs?  who else but langdonx.

1. www.atowers.com/flamer.gif

     the first design deviates from the typical atowers shit you normally see.  while it's very good, i'm not sure i would use it as a web site design.

2. www.atowers.com/atowers9

     the second design is the atowers that you would normally see on a day-to-day basis.  lots of traffic going on in it and you got the crosshairs in the center to add a little touch.  this is truly a master piece and could be a great web site if he would only take the time to add some navigation.

3. www.atowers.com/new6

     this one is complete.  and very nice.  great colors.  great use of shapes.  simple navigation.  i could stand to see the background of the orange blocks differ a bit.  the circular, eye-like graphic is repeated in 1024x768.

4. http://www.atowers.com/newartcasts/

     this design was to be used for artcasts.  back in the day, artcasts was a bad ass site that atowers and i put together.  it let people submit two graphics that they created and then visitors would vote and say which one is better.  there was some other stuff too, but i forget.  anyhow.  the design is aight.  if you notice, the center red/orange graphic is actually atower's face.  /<3v/|_ huh ???

national day of prayer.  separation of church and state?

repeated media coverage.  dehumanizing the whole event?

brink of war.  unnecessary?

still unbelievable.

http://www.time.com/time/photoessays/shattered/index.html

hi.  tired.  late.  why do i stay up?  it's for the love of the game.  why else?  anyhow.  wedding pictures here (for a short time).  and today's virginian pilot.

i heard today that the pentagon plane was originally headed for the whitehouse.  duhh.  how exactly would they know that?  they say they have evidence that proves it.  yeah?  try sharing it with others.

the media pisses me off (not drewmedia, i promise).

in ad 2001.
war was beginning.
how are you gentlemen?
all your twin towers are belong to us.

http://air.leshii.net/index.php?readold=90 

and in case you don't have a television, but you do have the internet, or you're just bored.  click here.

twin towers collapsed.  portion of pentagon collapsed.  people died.  insanity.  this is all i will say.  if i said what i felt, i'd probaby offend people.  that's not the goal here.

say a prayer.

so my sister got married.  i now have a brother-in-law.  i've worn my $800 suit once.  i got a little toasted.  but still aint nothin' changed.  i still have to get up early tomorrow.  still gotta goto work.  as if i didn't have to do that enough last week.  or last month.  or even last year.

i swear to god one of these weeknds won't be just an ordinary weekend.  something will change.  something awesome.  i'll suddenly be independently wealthy.  my days will be great.  i'll get up whenever.  play some cs in the morning.  play some ff9 in the afternoon.  goto the beach.  take some pictures.  go see sharon.  see how her day was.  make her dinner.  watch a movie.  make out.  goto sleep.  and repeat.  life will be easy.

what more could i ask for?

i have been up for 32 hours.  tonight, when i am about to goto sleep finally, it will be more like 40 hours.  i'm not sure how i've made it this far.  or how i will get through a 2 hour drive to richmond.  but somehow it will happen.  pray for me.

www.fstreamz.com has a log of events, which could tell you why i have been up for this long.  although, i never stop thinking that at least 50% of the reason could be acredited to this.  play on dog, play on.

i am going to a wedding in richmond now.  my sister's gettin hitched.  pretty cool.  hopefully i will be able to get a street sign with my name on it while i am there.  we will see.  enjoy the new pics pics and slideshow pics while i am gone.  i will have plenty more when i return.

my dog luke deserves an oscar for his latest on-screen performance.  he not only starred in it, but he wrote it as well.  i of course was the director of this little independent film.  enjoy the show.

and if you haven't seen my others movies, please check my archives.

as for new things today.  there's a new song.  a new log.  pics section has a new navigation.  it's much easier now since you can click a picture and then press prev/next ... instead of closing the window and clicking another entry.  i'm sure it will be ripped off.  but hey, that's life.  what would windows be without macOS?

drewmedia.com turned twenty-one yesterday.  so sunday night we take him out to crocodile rocks.  luckily for us the door guy was too much of a moron to realize that it was the 2nd still, so there was no problem getting inside.  it was me, ashley/laura, ben, drew, drew, jeff, and sharon.  we were partyin out, and having a good time for a good portion of the night.  but you know how birthdays go.  one thing leads to another, and one drink turns into about 10.  and this is how we end up.  good times.  good times.  happy birthday dog.  the present is on its way.

and as per an earlier news entry for today.  i think a three pound bag should do the trick.

Dear Drivers,

     When you are attempting to park in a large parking lot, here are some good tips to help you along your way.  Please adhere to all my advice, as it will make parking go a lot more smoothly.

     Tip #1 - When finding a spot, do not aimlessly drive up and down the lanes in the lot looking for the best spot possible.  This only causes you to clog up traffic in the parking lot, and further piss off other drives whose way you get in.  In a typical case, time spent driving around is greater than that of walking your fat lazy ass to the door from a further distance.
     Tip #2 - If you find someone who is walking to their car, do not follow them and stop your car in the middle of the lane.  This tends to create traffic within the lot.  As if drivers didn't have to endure enough of that on the drive over.
     Tip #3 - Put the shopping carts into the shopping cart corrals.  The last fucking thing I need is another dent in my door due to the fact that your fat lazy ass cannot follow the rules.

Thank You ,
Langdon X

why is it that i have nothing useful to say...ever?  nothing that will provide anything for anyone.  nothing that someone could take in their virtual hand and place in their virtual pocket to one day recollect and use in some useful manner.  i want to write a thought provoking daily entry, which may provide readers with insight into my deep down personal thoughts and feelings.  instead i'll just write something stupid with no substance at all, and throw in some stupid url.

sucks being a moron.

just kidding.  there's nothing new.  except a huge dent in my wallet from weddings, tickets, and trips to seattle.  i plan on the winning the lottery soon.  that or knocking off a bank.  i have to figure out which is easier.

atowers says i need more content.  how's this for content.  i think it's probably the best prank call in history.  i dare you to find a better one.
