"Now say your lesson, Bumblebee, and be true."
The words fell from his lips like small chunks of frozen energon. His right hand trembled lightly against his chest like an idling engine.
"I do not aim with my hand; he who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his maker."
"I aim with my optical sensors."
"Good."
"I do not shoot with my hand; he who shoots with his hand has forgotten the face of his maker."
"I shoot with my processor."
"So it has ever been, Bumblebee."
"I do not kill with my gun; he who kills with his gun has forgotten the face of his maker."
"I kill with my laser-core."
"Then KILL them, for your maker's sake!" Optimus shouted. "KILL THEM ALL!"
The moon, still and cold
is unreachable tonight,
as far away as
Your face,
pale and blue
glowing by the light from the
Television
left on to spout it's nonsense
into our subconscious minds
as we
Sleep, and dream
of the days when light,
dancing on rough waters
spilled from
The moon, still and cold
is unreachable tonight,
as far away as...
Welcome to 2010.
Why isn't the future the future?
Meet the new year, same as the old year.....
Oh well, at least it's no worse...yet.
Have I learned anything yet in 2010? Let's see:
1. Working with Saturday and Sundays off is a mixed blessing at best
2. I am lazy and have yet to actually use most of my Christmas presents
3. Quitting smoking sounds like more fun the farther away your quit day is
4. Even in The Future your friends will still come to your house and put your toys in sexually explicit positions.
Yeah, that's it.
Oh No! That baby is going to eat that planet!!!! Is this what fate has in store for us?
"Oh, well happy new year's baby
We could probably fix it if we clean it up all day
Or we could simply pack our bags
And catch a plane to Barcelona 'cause this city's a drag"

Well it's the end of the year, the end of the decade and the start of a whole new thing....
...or it's just another day. I guess it's how you look at it.
I'm off to work until 4 in the morning to make sure all the drunks in Toronto get home safe, so no parties for me tonight. But everyone have a safe and happy day! And a great new decade, too!
Take a little time out to think about where you were back in 1999. Worried about Y2K? Well, it's been ten years and I guess the sky hasn't fallen yet. What's changed and what's stayed the same? And where will the next 10 years take us all? It's interesting, if ultimately futile, to consider.
Well, good riddance 2009. Have a great 2010 everybody!
