I finally bought the album Take Everything by Seventh Day Slumber. I went to Scott's Christian Parable twice and listened to the album. If you have listened to this album, you might think that these are just worship songs. Yes, they are. But they some of the songs you have heard of before are done in a way that makes them different and unique thus enjoyable to listen to.
They cover the song called "Famous One" and they arrange the intro and pre-verse different than you would hear from your typical praise and worship artist. I dig this album, plus I am trying to get into more Christian Rock. I recommend this album. If nothing else, give this album a listen. I dug it the first time I listened to it. Listening it a second time is what got me to buy it. I hope you enjoy the album as much as I do.
I haven't really had much to say. Is that a good thing? Some might say so, but others would say not. I guess I will touch up on some stuff that I have been thinking about lately. But right now, just thought I would stop in and make a little post.
We all know that Michael Jackson has passed away. But Perez Hilton chose to be the douche bag that he is and make a tasteless joke. The following is what Perez Hilton is posted on his website before it was taken down due to complaints.
Perez Hilton is known for being a douche bag by slagging on people by doing stuff such as the above pic. That is why Perez Hilton is a douche. One good thing is the fact that Perez got his ass kicked by the manager of the Black Eyes Peas.
My one status on Facebook: "still thinks Perez Hilton is douche bag" got three thumbs up and a ton of comments on it. People just don't like him. Perez Hilton can fall off the face of the earth and nobody would mind. I certainly wouldn't. Maybe we can get The Black Eyed Peas' manager to beat his ass again...
Unless you have been living under a rock or shut off all forms of media, than you will know that "The King of Pop" Michael Jackson has passed away. He suffered cardiac arrest (heart attack) and was taken to hospital where he slipped into coma, than passed away. He was only 50 years old.
Jackson did revolutionize the music industry more than we can comprehend. Sure he has bad press over the last number of years, but that doesn't diminish the influence he had over many of today's acts in the music industry. A lot people use his style in their dance style in music videos and probably don't even realize they are doing so.
It is a shock that Michael Jackson passed away and at 50. A lot of people are dying younger and younger it seems. But some people go hard in the prime of their life and die young. In all honesty, what do we have to be sad about? Sure its sad that Michael Jackson passed away, but he did have a full life and a great career. He rose from seemingly nothing into a major international superstar. He touched the lives of so many. We should celebrate the good things about Jackson instead of dwelling on the fact that he is dead. Again, don't get me wrong about his death not being sad and tragic because it is.
Cherish his contributions to music because one innovative man has died. Some people may not care, but R.I.P. Michael Jackson.
I haven't been posting much. I haven't really had anything to post about. Someone give me something to write about. Or not. You don't have. Thought I would make another post for the hell of it. I hate having writers block. Don't you? Anyways, later peeps.
So I am officially 26 years of age. I don't feel much different when I did when I turned 25. Sure it is good to go and celebrate your birthday, but it is just another day in a sense. Some people use this as an excuse to get drunk. But not me. I don't put much stalk into birthdays and haven't for a long ass time. So happy birthday to me. Prepared to reply to everyone who wishes me an impressonal Facebook birthday greeting.
As I promised, my thoughts on a Baptist Priest getting tased.
Reading comments on YouTube or wherever, a lot of people seem to think this all the fault of Pastor Steven Anderson. That just makes me sick! People go along with what police do because police can do no wrong. FUCK OFF! That is a bullshit way to look at things. Police uphold the law yes, but above the law no. I respect what the police try to do. But then a bunch of corrupt cops ruin it for the rest who try to uphold the law.
It took seven or eight cops to take down one man who wasn't even resisting arrest. All Steven Anderson did was ask why he was being put under arrest. The one cop couldn't even use his pea brain to think of a half intelligent response in answer to his question. So immediately they assume he is resisting arrest. But look at the video evidence. It there in black and white. If you are as ignorant as those cops, than I am not surprised how you could surmise that Pastor Anderson was resisting arrest.
Pastor Anderson was within his rights to ask why he was being put under arrest. But again, that cop couldn't come up with a valid reason so they had to resort tasing him. They didn't even read him his rights. If Pastor Anderson was fighting out of being handcuffed while his rights were read to him than I would say yes he was resisting arrest. He was not handcuffed and he was not read his rights. He was not even asked for his license and registration. Where in the video do you ever see Pastor Anderson resisting arrest? It even shows Pastor Anderson asking for that dog to be brought back out because the dog was alerted to his car. But again they couldn't grant that request because they know they are in the wrong and putting him under wrongful arrest. They didn't want admit they were wrong. So what do they do? They tase him because they are not man enough to admit when they are wrong.
Why do a portion of cops feel the need tase or beat down someone when it is not necessary? With Pastor Steve Anderson its another example. Another example is that Polish man in Vancouver International Airport who apprently had a stapler and a chair was taken down by four cops, tased, and died from being tased. Is this world coming to a state where we can't feel safe around cops? The United States seems to be heading in this direction.
Case in point is the following:
The cops used force where force wasn't needed. The person surrendered after reaching a dead end. I guess the cop was going off adrenaline and still decided to kick him in the end and knock him out. Another cop came and give him a few good shots with his nightstick. Than they high five and pat each other on the back. Real good job cops. I bet you feel big.
Reading comments on the Pastor Steven Anderson story, people seem to be ignorant based on him being very right wing. Who FUCKING cares? That is no reason to say he deserved it. Nobody deserves it and I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy.
