joseph goebbels would be proud

the video that's just been released of nasrallah is extremely interesting. if you repeat a lie enough... and he repeats himself non-stop... people will believe it. it's unbelievable how much crap that man talks.

back to my reality: just after yogi left, spot arrived. i'd reached a dead-end at work, so i spent the evening learning some basics of DSP, reading the uhh, and of course, keeping up with moonflake's linkage. penn and teller are great.

we left about 2am (12 hours at work), and walked through to the russian bar. we had a good game of doubles pool, we scared the crap out of our opponents. unfortunately, sinking the black with a fantastic shot wasn't a good idea - i managed to drop one of their balls as well. dammit.

we then went off to the zamir, for an excellent few hours of hard, hard rock. as we walked in, i asked the dj if i could start my night with slipknot (i've been silently screaming along for weeks); he obliged, and i began the night with a healthy release.

a naval captain from our base recognized me, and hopped over to give me a hug and show me a "magic trick" with a raver-toy flashy-light thingy. i wasn't too impressed, but he was obviously off his bracket, so i obligingly gave him two-thumbs-up and carried on head-banging. seeing him tomorrow morning will be amusing.

the dj gave me a ride home in the morning, and i crashed on arrival. when i woke up around 3pm, i showered, missioned for a cup o' coffee and to draw cash, and then took a cab to spot's. crashed another meal - his grandmother was unimpressed as usual - and then we assisted her with moving a bed before rushing off to ra'anana.

training started off on a negative note. i went straight in to work on the punching bag... i did some serious damage, and got good release, but my lungs were horrified and didn't respond well after that.

having said that, it was a really good training session. i feel good, and i know that i'll be complaining with a smile in the morning.

we sprinted to catch the bus back to ta, then sat down for coffee and solid sandwiches for supper. i'm at work to catch up on the news: my word, this is all totally disturbing and frustrating. i don't think i really want to know.

did anyone else see the clip of the car crashing into the crowd on cnn?
