*fumes*



Damn...that dragon is hot.

From A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy:
"The story so far: In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move. Many races believe that it was created by some sort of god, though the Jatravartid people of Viltvodle VI believe that the entire Universe was in fact sneezed out of the nose of a being called the Great Green Arkleseizure. (dudes...i SERIOUSLY just sneezed...freaky) The Jatravartids, who live in perpetual fear of the time they call The Coming of the Great White Hankerchief, are small blue creatures with more than fifty arms each, who are therefore unique in being the only race in history to have invented the aerosol deodorant before the wheel.

....And this computer, which was called the Earth, was so large that it was frequently mistaken for a planet- especially by the strange apelike beings who ramed its surface, totally unaware that they were simply part of a gigantic computer program. And this is very odd, because without that fairly simple and obvious piece of knowledge, nothing that ever happened on the Earth could possibly make the slightest bit of sense."

And o man, this doesn't make any sense, but I realized that friendship means more than anything. If it weren't for friends, we'd die trying to explain our lives to our parents, the difficulty level of which is similar to disproving the existance of The Great Green Arkleseizure to the Jatravartid's.

Friendship is when you can make fun of the person in front of you, and they respond with equal, and in some cases, even more brutality. And then we kill each other. :)

What a happy ending.

That dragon is actually a character from a book series that I own but unfortunately do not have with me here at school. I haven't read them since high school however, so I can't even recall the names. :( I do remember that certain characters had the abilities to transform into dragons--which is a gift I would sure like to have. Getting back to Kalamazoo would be a breeze!

Haha. Pun intended.
