	  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I am often asked how I find time to update this website, what stars direct my faith.  Its not really hard.  A focused mind can find anything.  There is so much bueaty in the world.  All that it requires is a little time to write it down, separate the clutter.  At the base of it all, every song is a love song.  Its all a matter of perspective, how you look at it or listen to it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
As I&#039;m eating my calalloo rice out of a Styrofoam cup takes a very long time to decompose in the environment and has been documented to cause starvation in birds and other marine wildlife.  If I had the time, a whole lot a money or if luck was a lady; I would rent a whole floor of the pan caribbean building - don&#039;t ask me why.  When you live by the day, pay by the hour, and sleep on the weekends, you tend to lay in the bed that you made, die by what you live by.   Passion is a curse.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
I spent all of last week thinking up new application concepts and watching wild ants eat babies on Discovery - not really - they were eating chickens.  Babies taste like chicken?  I ask cause I&#039;m not sure.  I learn fast, so you don&#039;t really have to go into the details.  Photographic memory tends to be a curse when you remember odd little details about everything and yet absolute nothing about others.  It does wear me down at times, like a caged animal.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;By owen on Logbook&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;!-- &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.owensoft.net/v4/item/1054/#comment&quot;&gt;make a comment&lt;/a&gt; --&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

	  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I&#039;ve been watching african movies on dvd since my cable company&#039;s feed was hyjacked by the latest monopoly - cream and bastards.  I&#039;m hooked on them like a baby on a well endowed milk machine - a monkey on a swing.  There is no hesitation in these films for men to head butt women, jealous sisters marrying there dead sister&#039;s husbands, women fighting over men in supermarkets - its not the typical regurgitant I am accustomed to seeing on american cable or on profile for the last twenty one years.  Cinderella gets her fair share of bad treatment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
African films live on a whole different set of rules; women typically stay at home, have babies and then get murdered or betrayed in some unusually conniving way.  Only to return as ghosts to set things right.  There are also a lot less curse word and they place a lot of emphasis on morals and ethics.   Cursing is replaced with long sensitions of crying, well bawling would be a better word to describe the river of H2O that percipitates when anyone dies or gets slapped - did I mention how they like to slap alot?  One girl got headbutted once, shot, burned with acided, given a letal injection and slapped at least once by every character in the movie, all because she was in love with the dude that president&#039;s &lt;a rel=&#039;external&#039; href=&#039;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nadia_Buari&#039; title=&#039;daughter&#039;&gt;daughter&lt;/a&gt; wanted.  It was very painful to watch - I loved it - pure drama.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
The films I&#039;ve been watching seem to be from Ghana.  Which may explain why the director keeps using the same actors over and over again - not that I&#039;m complaining cause there apparently is no shortage of leading ladies with healthy backend support, thickness, camera crews, etc.  Hair extentions are abundant but not quite as annoying as the fact that EVERY MOVIE IS A TWO PART SERIES.  It is as if they can never finish slapping anybody in a hour and a half.  Nothing is worst than watching part 1 and having the possiblity of NEVER SEEING THE CONCLUSION!  I am enjoying still, if not only to see who will get murdered or slapped next,  how and when the father will catch the son sleeping with his mistress who happens to be his wife&#039;s sister.  The plot is never the same, which is good.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;By owen on Logbook&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;!-- &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.owensoft.net/v4/item/1048/#comment&quot;&gt;make a comment&lt;/a&gt; --&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

As usual I&#039;m late on the uptake when it come to movies but its a rediculously funny movie with english accents that starts out slow and ends with a bang. 9 out of 10 near perfect.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;By owen on Movies&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;!-- &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.owensoft.net/v4/item/1042/#comment&quot;&gt;make a comment&lt;/a&gt; --&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <link>http://www.owensoft.net/v4/item/1039/</link>		
	  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I haven&#039;t been the same since I went to that beach, far, far away.  The hot sand beneat my feet, wind in my hair.  It started to get to me, prudence was never my clean suit, I had to get out.  Cream and bastards.  I am at the point where people keep asking what makes me special, what stars direct my faith, the circle on which I run about.  Wanting me to sell myself like a lady of the night.  Quixotic about this thing called reality.  Malcontent, a ghost in a shell.  Truth is, I really never saw myself as special in anyway, I enjoy the madness, we are all the same, just doing enough to get by.  I see myself as a product of my environment, the fifth car in a train wreak.  Hey Jude.  Each person I know bringing me closer an closer to perfection. Each being a part of my puzzle, having a specific purpose.  I am never the same unless you are there.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
I love my mother.  She brings forth the supplication.  I went to the dentist, only because it will give me pain, something to write about.  Last time I was there 6 years ago, he left my teeth in a state of unrest.  I&#039;ll be fine as long as somebody takes me home - everynow and then.  The price doubled to 4000 JMD and the pain somewhat reduced to random miscalculations of her air powered tool of pain.  Now the student had become the teacher.  The feeling like I had a stroke as I lost control of my jaw muscles, a combination of water and saliva ran down my cheeks, unto my neck as she pressed my head against her breast.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
Its hard for me to define myself.  I&#039;m somewhere between unsure and a hundred.  Its like asking a tomato why its red or why the sun shines and then explodes.  There is only some many words we can say; hello, goodbye.  You asking me will my love grow?  I don&#039;t know, I don&#039;t know.  I&#039;m a revolving door.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;By owen on Logbook&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;!-- &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.owensoft.net/v4/item/1039/#comment&quot;&gt;make a comment&lt;/a&gt; --&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
