the taliban claims this, the taliban says that.... blah! why are the taliban still kickin? ok, here's my beef. if america is so strong and agile and smart, how come the taliban have not been detained yet? bomb after bomb after bomb. "we hit key targets" --- oh yeah??? how come they have the ability to comment about it? key, huh? detain those mf's already! no excuses. incidentally, off topic for a sec, how come tupac's and biggie's slayers have yet been identified. i think we gave the police we love so much, enough time for that excuse of an investigation.

sorry about the delays... there is a re-design in the works. what else is new? plus the crazy little puppy is draining me of all my energy. how can something so little pee so much in one day? this is insanity.

downloaded prince's latest piece of brilliance, the rainbow children, off of npg music club's premium service a month before its scheduled release. its a fantastic piece in what has become a brilliant career for the diminutive one. much props to prince for kicking butt again. ok... enough propping up.

sorry the blogs have been completely absent of late... kriheli's apartment 9X has been invaded by a new inhabitant. 3 months old and completely nuts, is little shakespeare - don't let the innocent face fool you. he is anything but!

big shout out to theseduction747 : HAPPY BIRTHDAY girl! just four days after mine. have a wonderful day and party-till-dawn, woman! i wish i can do that, but frankly i am not in the mood, and i also have a ballgame to play tomorrow morning. blah. cynthia dropped by last night to hook me up with my first damn microwave. its purple. i love it. people used to freak out asking how is it that a man lived by himself without a microwave? that part has now been solved. but that doesn't mean i am going to give up on cooking. =)

much props to: allegra, andrea, angela, cassandra, cathy, crazy sara, cynthia, dalila, danny, dave, deb, derek, eric, irene, katy, laura, lela, liana, marcia, maria, matthew, paulie, sasini, seduction747, tonia, yvette, zaheer and my family for all throwing shouts at me yesterday for my birthday.... kriheli extra-special awards go out to ms. samantha sarakanti for calling at the stroke of midnight, and chinh for emailing at midnight. not to mention shag & his wife, as well as my mother doing their awful renditions of "happy birthday to you" over the phone. love you all.

27. blah. happy birthday to me. derek says i am roughly 128 in dog years. ancient kriheli. thanks to all of you who sent me cards and ecards and instant messages. you all rule. incidentally, fantomas ruled last night at madison square garden, opening up for tool (i didn't really stick around for tool).

my sister got me scratchoff lottery tickets! 20 of them. i won $19. haha. this rocks. i guess that will go towards something off my gift page, or perhaps something else. help me out. first suggestion to be emailed to me will be the final choice. Also... pre-props to robyn parks and allegra porchia for sending me cards, although they are early. love you all. you guys are awesome.
