Amazon Commisions Program

I am a human. As I human living in America today, I want money. And since I have a blog and no life, I figure "Why not start here?" And so I stumbled on this little Amazon Deal.

Basically, I post products in my blog, and they pay me a commision when someone follows the link from my blog and buys it. I'm still considering it, but I figure it's less annoying than AdSense. Since I'm going to be reviewing stuff anyway, and I was probably going to post Amazon links anyway, I may as well earn a buck or two off it.

But here's the one problem I have: I have no readers!

None, nada, zip! I'm basically wasting part of the internet posting nonsense no one will read! But if I can attract some of my twitter followers, some local friends, or maybe some members of the Rare Witch Project to come and read it on a regular basis, I can maybe earn a quick buck advertising things people already want! Selfish? Yes. Desperate? YES! But I'm going to have to wait, get some permissions and whatnot, and work through it. Keep expecting ramblings and such, this is just an idea.

Anyhoo, still no GIMP! Dang that system administrator!

Barbeque Chicken or Crispos for lunch. I'm definately leaning for the Crispos. Beef is delicious! Chicken is too, just not with BBQ sauce in my opinion.

There is something deeper drilling on my mind, but I don't feel I will mention it.

Buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo

Did you know that "Buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo" is a sentence? It is! Look at the definitions here. Since it is possible for "Buffalo" to be either a noun, adjective (as in describing something as being from the city of Buffalo), and a verb, it can be used to make a complete sentence.

I've heard it's possible to do it seven times, such as: "Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo." But I never understood quite how that works. If anyone knows, please comment. Five times in a row, however, definitely works. The sentence basically says "The buffalo from Buffalo always buffalo the buffalo from Buffalo." So, therefore, Buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo. My English teacher says that it would have to be "Buffalo's buffalo buffalo Buffalo's buffalo," but I seriously doubt that's needed.

Now I crave some buffalo wings. I like REALLY want some chicken wings. Right now. Unfortunately, today's lunch is pizza. Actually, I suppose that is fortunate considering some of the slop they try to serve us.

Also, still no GIMP. That should be taken care of tonight though. We don't have to have the section finished until Februray 22nd. That will not be a problem, as it's just 5 small sections about the basics of GIMP. And just like the section on using Kompozer, which is a website designing program, I'm sure anyone with any amount of computer savy would be able to do it.

I finished a story that was about Christmas Break. Mine involved ninjas. And buffalo, which is kinda why I started this blog like that. I may post it here later if I have nothing better to say.


The guy next to me is working on freehanding this picture. He'll be able to do it, considering this piece of Halo fanart he did at my request:


Pretty great, huh? The file format ruined it a bit but it still looks pretty dang good. It's my computer background now. I don't care if you make it yours as well, but please leave the signature. Pretty sure he'd kill me anyways.

And yes, ladies, I'm still single.

Welcome to my Blog... Again

Hello and welcome to my blog. I've attempted this several times before (hence the "2" in my url), but I never really took off with writing in it. Now I will make a rule: at least 3 blogs a week as long as it is within my power to do so.

Why did the rest of my blogs never take off? Maybe it's because the internet isn't as free to me as it is to everyone else. There's no mask here, I'm probably more me on the web than I am in public. And when irl and the web combine, people might read something I would never say aloud. As the days go by, I censor myself, and then not to long afterward I forget the thing existed. I started this blog wanting to start a blog for my graduating class, but then I realized I'm the last person to be telling everyone what's going on.

I'm actually typing this at school, because the school computers have blocked me from installing GIMP, which I need to go to the next chapter of my web design class. And, out of boredom "Why not type a blog?" In fact, a majority of my blogs will probably come from this time of day.

"So, CJ, what is this blog actually about?" I'm glad I pretended you asked! It's going to be what I feel like that day. If I feel like spilling my romantic feelings, I shall do so. If I feel like sulking in an emo-depression that I want all 2 of my readers to read, I'll do that too. Heck, if I feel like complaining about the quality of today's chicken sandwiches compared to last month's, I will. It's the internet, someone will read it. I'll probably review whatever is relevant to me at the time media-wise, but otherwise just random rambling.

If I feel like rambling on about why I wanted a blog, I already did. It's right up there. And this will likely be how all my blog posts are. Only possibly more on-track. And the fact that I'm reading this in a British accent in my mind probably translates through, I'm guessing. Now the mind accent has changed to Austrailian.

I suppose I'll close this for now, expect something more organized and meaningful later this week.
