Update

Looking back I realized that I've written posts which end in phrases like 'I'll keep you posted' or 'more on this in future posts' and then never updated them at all. Thus, I would like to take this opportunity to tie up any lose ends that might be plaguing you, my readers.

1) I still work at Rogers.
2) My bike is definately gone.
3) . . .

And I've lost interest in this post . . .

A Mighty, Mighty Good Man!

Dearest readers,

Today I offer a challenge to you all. Using the site provided draw your own picture of your hero. Using the ‘print screen’ key save a copy of the picture and post it on your blog/website/whatever, and leave a link to it in the comments section of this post. The ‘contest’ ends April 1st and the winning entry will be posted for all to see here on ColourCircus.
My own entry is LeVar Burton because he is one cool dude and it’s he that hosts ‘Reading Rainbow’ and it was the site for said show where I discovered this ‘Hero and Hopes’ machine. Kudos LeVar, keep up the good work!

Sincerely
Mano Chullo

Things were better back then . . .

How oft’ as a child did I dream of smoking cigarettes with a rooster? How oft’ was I denied gratification? How oft’ has this denial replayed in my head sapping my confidence and chipping away at my soul? Thank God young Henri Groulx will never know the shame that has haunted me all these years.

Was there ever a doubt?

Not as flattering a description as I could have hoped for, but in many ways it’s accurate.

You Are a Bright Star Soul

Like a shining star, you have no trouble being the center of attention
In fact, you often feel a bit hurt when all eyes aren't on you
You need to be number one in everything, no matter how trivial
And it's this ego that both hurts your confidence and helps you acheive

You're dramatic and a powerhouse of pure energy
You posess a divine quality or uniqueness that's hard to define
A natural performer, it's likely you'll become famous in some circles.
Just learn not to take everyone's reaction to you so personally!

Souls you are most compatible with: Newborn Soul and Prophet Soul

St. Patrick's

St. Patrick’s Eve was fantastic, as was St. Patrick’s day. My only compliant, regarding this March 17th’s festivities, is that despite attending two different parties and a bar, I only heard two ‘Irish-esk’ songs. For the rest of the night the music was of a decidedly ‘bland’ nature. I got a parking ticket St. Pat’s Eve from parking in the student centre parking lot, and then went home to find I had movies overdue from the library. I plan to pay both debts posthaste before I spend all my money and can’t. Speaking of money, I really could use a new way of earning it. This mall gig has MOST DEFINITELY run its course.
