So I know you ladies out there read the Futon. I know you try to match it with your undergarments... lots of blue and stuff.
Anyways, I don't want to alienate you, God knows you're probably 35% of the 17 readers, so this ones for you.
I just found out that an old neighbor of mine has passed away. He lived about a block from me, and a block from another friend who passed away about a year ago. I mean, that's two neighbors within two blocks, within two years. Who is next?
[That wasn't the girly part of the post yet. This next part is.]
The fragile nature of life has made me have feelings. Feelings... of sadness.
[End of girly part.]
Then I just stopped thinking about it, and now I'm totally fine.

death is the only thing certain in life. and taxes. it's ok to feel sad about death and taxes. happiness lies in what you make of your life and the returns you sometimes receive from the govt.

Someone very wise once told me that the only thing certain in life is this: Whenever the subject of certainty in life is broached, out will come the death and taxes line. Very similar to a book I once pretended to read while some chicks were looking:
"Busy Jobs and Their Complaints: The Nonrandom Appearance of the One-legged Man in An Ass-Kicking Contest."

Do girls do that all the time? Man, I tried it for a couple seconds and I got really hungry. I think need a Pop-Tart.

All this talk about saddness reminds me of the time when my brother broke my futon. Not too many futons can take a flying elbow off the top ropes.

Hey Futon, thanks for thinking of us and exanding your demographic. Feeling are not to be forgotten, but we ladies aren't melancollie all of the time. Jeesh! We do care when people die. You know, fellow man and all that stuff.

Ah, I was feeling veclempt. (Ah, I was feeling veclempt. (
DV- Don't get me started on taxes. The returns are essentially YOUR OWN FUTON MONEY that they're giving back to you after the 'borrowed' it and invested it, and played golf with it, and made interest on it. That's why I now refuse to pay my Estimated Taxes. Futon that man, the penalty for not paying is small compared to ALL THE PILES OF MONEY I make off of investing that scrilla. But, yes, you are right. Life is what you make of it. Oh, then WE DIE.
Sancho - No tears, you kidding me, the kid was a dork.
RCP - Spoonman!
Posted @ August 26, 2005girl - You're wearing blue undies, aren't you?
Christopher says,
Gotta love the softer side of futon.
Posted @ August 26, 2005Noah says,
That's right Christopher. Flip this matress over, and you'll find a soft pillow top with a creamy nougat center. Oh, and a thick candy shell.

Pop Tarts have always comforted me in sad moments as well. That and cowbells.
Posted @ August 26, 2005girl says,
Uuh, RCP - Futon is asking what color my underwear is. Go break his legs.
Posted @ August 26, 2005RCP says,
First my futon was broken now its gonna be YOUR FACE!!!
Posted @ August 26, 2005Noah says,
It was more of a rhetorical question, like, The Futon is blue, isn't it?
Posted @ August 26, 2005girl says,
uh no. but i do like how you said undies, not underwear. do you ever say sandies instead of sandwiches?
Posted @ August 26, 2005niko says,
this blog has way too feminine of a feel to it. may as well have changed the background color to PINK. I'll be back when the man-talk resumes.
Posted @ August 26, 2005Noah says,
girl - i hope you see here that niko has bailed, but i did it all for you! oh, and no, i don't say sandies, but i will say, Make Me A Sandwich just about anyone who walks by...
niko - you'd like the futon in pink, wouldn't you?
Posted @ August 26, 2005girl says,
Looks like Niko feels threatened. Perhaps he isn't secure with being sensitive.
Go make ME a sandwich. and just because i am a girl doesn't mean i like pink. i happen to like yellow. blue is for boys.
