Lest we forget.

"Those heroes that shed their blood
and lost their lives;
You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country.
Therefore rest in peace.
There is no difference between the Johnnies
and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side
here in this country of ours.
You, the mothers,
who sent their sons from far away countries,
wipe away your tears;
your sons are now lying in our bosom
and are in peace.
After having lost their lives on this land they have
become our sons as well."

-- Ataturk 1934


Futility

Move him into the sun--
Gently its touch awoke him once,
At home, whispering of fields unsown.
Always it woke him, even in France,
Until this morning and this snow.
If anything might rouse him now
The kind old sun will know.

Think how it wakes the seeds,--
Woke, once, the clays of a cold star.
Are limbs, so dear-achieved, are sides,
Full-nerved-- still warm,-- too hard to stir?
Was it for this the clay grew tall?
-- O what made fatuous sunbeams toil
To break earth's sleep at all?
-- Wilfred Owen

I WANT PHOTOSHOP RIGHT NOW.

*crying* isn't it even remotely possible that someone at this Hall needs PSP for a legitimate purpose? Waaaaah.

I can't even d/l trial versions because you're not allowed to load new programs on- this is also why I'm using this really hideous crappy web-based version of MSN.

Mutter, mutter, grumble, mutter.

Also, because I have to mention this:

As some of you may know, my venerable (and I choose that word because it sounds a lot like venereal...) first email account, birdheadnzNOSPAM@hotmail.com, broke approximately eight months ago. I mean it was totally stuffed; the inbox overflowed but I couldn't see anything to delete it (it was getting kind of a lot of spam, as well, because it was just that old.) I couldn't do anything to it, although I could MSN through it, which I continue to do.

I accidentally logged in to that account when I was trying to check my email today and.... it has returned from the dead. This is like a rebirth, I am not kidding: I even have the "Welcome to Hotmail" message in my inbox.

o.O O.o Hotmail, my darling, you totally and utterly suck.

*sigh*
