I made a biiiig mistake today. i mean Big with a capital B. like i forgot to drink cofee before i meet the world. so im slumping in my desk trying to prop my eyebrows open and my teacher is laughing because he can't figure out why i stayed up till 11 o'clock watching The Fiddler on the Roof. (obtw its a weird play but it has a good moral :) I still cant figure out why i did it myself. but anyway...

two things NOONE believes about my ancestors:
thing #1: My great great monkey uncle walked around the world. And i dont know how many greats there were or if it was an uncle or a grandpa BUT IT HAPPENED SOMEWHERE ALONG THE LINE PEOPLE!!!

thing #2: One of my great great great (i dont know how many greats i should use) granpas created perpetual motion machines but smashed it with a sledge because he thought the wourld wasnt ready for it yet. whatta guy.

i told the guys at school this and they laughed me out of town. :) They claimed they finally knew now where i get my crazy ideas. so it does seem weird, maybe a bit far-fetched, BUT ITS TRUE!!! an i'm proud of those guys way back there that were stupid enough to do something so smart. :)

til next time,

this is what conrad does in church instead of taking notes.

blue skies... i love it

joke of the day:
A customer at work came up to me and asked my 60-year old aunt if i was her brother... LOL!! We looked at each other and laughed cuz we thought he was joking but he was dead serious. When he saw that we were laughing he mumbled something about having trouble with his head... poor feller. :)

oh yeah...

What Conrad Does When He Is Bored in School

i was coming up with this formula in school to find the area of a circle without using pi. i want to get the ratio of the area of a square to the area of a circle encrypted in the square to form a decimal with which i can find the area of the square and multiply times the decimal I found to get the pure area of a circle.

ok so thats a little thick for my pea-brain. and don't ask me how I thought of it cuz i have nooooo idea.

and a variant formula for the surface area of a circle:
2(d squared) + 4 (dh) (.785)

however the .785 is based off of pi and thats what i want to get rid of.

This is what i do when i get bored of Pre-Algebra
weird... i'm sounding like a geek and that stinks!!!

rustic stone house... its owners were on the back porch drinkin their beers so i decided to keep my distance.

My empty dreams and restless thoughts
All search for something more.
The writhing nature of my soul
Needs hope worth fighting for.

My spirit's inward song of life
Can't seem to find a way
To break the wall of Spirit World.
And capture endless day.

It screems for voice and pleads for ways
To break free from its cell.
To find a language deep enough
To burst the gates of hell.

something tells me that I'm not writing these words...
someone else is....
its kinda freeky....
but its amazing.

A sham to hide a devlish face
A castle in the cloud.
The prison cell for Beast in Me.
The rotting bodies shroud.

I use this wall to keep my soul
From outside scrutiny
And everything that tries to choke
The life-blood out of me.

I use a masquerade of peace
To hide my inward pain.
this part of me that I despise
Is driving me insane.

i had to write a poem and read it for speech class.
i'm scared cuz noone in my class understands what i write-- i dont know what they think.
so i hope it goes well

later,
conrad
