| Stevie Starr has had a myspace account for a year, I think.
How can someone so behind the times be so ahead of me?
Well, it's all about to change, folks.
Stay tuned.

| So I had a great idea today...
Someone should invent a quasicolon. It is two commas on top of each other instead of a period on top of a comma.
Grammatical context?
None.
Its sole purpose would be for use in emoticons by Asians.
Every time I come up with these things, someone steals them from me.
Like that time I said, "Why don't they make rollerskates with all their wheels in a row. They could be called Rollerskate Revolutions."
And then I saw two girls with my invention strapped to their feet. Rollerblades? That was my idea. I wish I had gotten a patent.
Also, the pot that has a strainer on top... geez.
And that other time that me and my good buddy Al Gore invented the internet (just tin can phones connected by pipes instead of cord, so you could send important papers through them).
I wrote a play today. It's a one act. No title as of yet.
Don't steal it from me. I already got it copyrighted.
Here goes:
James says: I am going to ressurrect the xanga.
Xanga says: I never died.
James says: You were dead to me.
Xanga says: You know what, you fickle piece of...
Friendster says: Stop fighting, guys! Can't we all be friends?
James and Xanga say: You're right friendster. See you on myspace.
(Friendster sighs)
I might call it "Friendster is Retarded".
That's not nice though...
How about "Friendster drools a lot and gives uncomfortably long hugs"
I learned to do a metal sign/devil sign (I don't know what to call it) with type.
it goes like this:
\m/
Metal is a joke.
Unless it's Korn. Then it's awesome.
Ok, I am done.

| Hey guys.
I only post with bad things...so in the vein of being unpredictable...here's how good my life is:
1. I just got this amazing job at a place called the supergroup doing what I love (design) and hanging out with 5 cool guys all day long.
2. I have some of the best friends in the world. It's funny how little things can show you that more than anything.
3. On a materialistic note, I just got an ipod. It's great...to quote my man Ferris Bueler -"If you have the means, I highly suggest picking one up."
4. I am still at Trinity Vineyard, the best church in the world. I bet you thought your church was the best. One word, baby: BOOYAH! Nuff said. Seriously though, I love my church, although I am in a tiny rut right now with doing stuff I know I shouldn't be doing and asking for forgiveness later. For those of you who don't know what that's like...it sucks. But I am a firm believer that you cannot receive all the awesome gifts God has for you until you truly repent of your sins (sin seperates you from God...no doiky). So I am on the uphill train ride called obedience. It can be tough, but man, it's worth it.
On that last note... I feel like God has blessed me beyond anything I could possibly deserve...and that makes me feel like I'm going to lose it all any second. Is that something anyone else has a problem with? My friend Jason Campbell said, "Just be comfortable in (everything god has given you) because it may not last, but be thankful while it does." I thought that was good advice. Nothing but God is infinate, but it doesn't mean you have to anticipate the end of all earthly things. God gave them to you as a gift, and he can take them away at any moment (it's not indian giving when you're God).
So I guess that's it. I don't think I have anything left to say.
Love you guys,

| i was fishing once and saw this dude catch a fish at least four time with the same bait. it was a horrible purple color with glitter, and didn't even look like a real worm, but for some reason this fish just kept going for it. It was the same fish every time, too. You could tell because this fish was beautiful.
Just in case you couldn't tell, this is an analogy.
And just in case you are wondering, there are plenty of fish in the sea.
I love you,
James | | |
| Hah!
Bet you guys thought I was done with this now!
Wrong. In a few months, myspace will totally be the out thing and xanga will be so retro that everyone will be posting again... right.
I figured stevie starr has a myspace site, james will stick to xanga.
So i'm moving from atlanta, which sucks hardcore.
This sucks because I will be 40 minutes away from atlanta, which isn't too far, but isn't two seconds away from my best friend's house, like I am currently.
If I try and turn it into something positive, I can say that it will only be more motivation for me to get my design portfolio together and get an awesome job.
"I always wanted a COOL job, now I got one! As a heating and air conditioning specialist thanks to the training I recieved at (podunk college here)."
I guess it sucks to feel this young compared to most of my friends who don't have anything figured out, and to know exactly what I want to do, but to not be able to do it.
I used to say that if it were up to me, I'd jump in my time machine and be married and settled into the perfect job. But isn't the fun part trying to figure that stuff out? Not that I'm dying to get married (actually, my opinion has changed a lot since I used to say that)
or to be rich, but I just used to think that's what it was about.
Am I even making sense?
Now I tend to look at things a little differently. I think the struggle is what is so cool, but what kind of sucks about it is I feel like I'm about to have to start al over.
feel free to comment.
i know that god has a plan for me and that I just have to stick it out and trust in him and things will be cool. but powder springs?
just kidding.
i love you guys...if you guys are still there.
