New Stuff, Really!

This has been an odd year so far. I'm doing better in school. I think I've finally got my rhythm down. That's all it took I guess. The only stump in that road is that I've missed class all this week because of my stupid headaches. I've awoken to one every morning. I went braindead yesterday and actually set my alarm to make me late for work. I've never done that shit! Why would I start now? Who knows. I would love to blame it on the aliens, but I think they're getting pissed off at me. Better than being pissed on by them. I've heard their urine can eat through a cow on steroids. Wouldn't want to be under that waterfall, no way! Anyway, I think the whole reason that I haven't written in awhile is that I'm so damn busy. What a surprise! I just thought you all would like to hear that. Many of you think that I make going to school and going to work full-time look easy. Well, I do, but it's finally taking a toll on me. I really need this summer to come as soon as possible. I think I might have a panic attack if it doesn't. Other than that, I think I'm doing okay.

On to more interesting things. A month ago I was searching on eBay for my beloved television series "Brimstone". It aired on Fox at the turn of the century. I absolutely loved the show. It was so dark and depressing and cool. So, I promptly ordered it when I found the complete season. When I recieved it, I noticed several things. First, the DVD's were purple. Second, the rating on it was "Canada-14". This rating was printed on the inside of a Maple Leaf. Third, it was not DVD quality at all, but recorded from a "Sci-Fi" like channel in Canada called "Space". As wierd as that all sounds, it didn't effect my love for the series again. It's about a cop whose wife gets raped. The rapist gets off on some stupid technicality. The cop finds the rapist and kills him. A few months later, he dies, and because he killed a man in cold blood, he goes to hell. Well, after 15 years, 113 of the most vile demons escape from Hell. The Devil commissions the cop to go after them. He tatoo's the names of demons on the cop's body in some rune language. Then he tells him that if he can round up all the demons, he'll get another chance at life on Earth. The series starts there. It only had 13 episodes. I watched them too fast. Now, I need to end the series for myself. If I can do that, I think I'll be happy. If anyone wants to watch this masterpiece, please ask and then maybe you too can help me finish this saga set in motion a century ago.
