My Understanding of the Truth
by John “Jake” Chambers

The gunslinger is the truth
Roland is the truth
The Prisoner is the truth
The Lady of Shadows is the truth
The Prisoner and the Lady of shadows are married. That is the truth.
The way station is the truth.
There were monsters under the mountain. That is the truth.
One of them had an Amoco gas pump between his legs and was pretending it was his penis. That is the truth. Roland let me die. That is the truth.
I still love him.
That is the truth.
When is a door not a door? When it’s a jar, and that is the truth.
Blaine is the truth.
Blaine is the truth.
What has four wheels and flies? A garbage truck, and that is the truth.
Blaine is the truth.
You have to watch Blaine all the time, Blain is a pain and that is the truth.
What is black and white and red all over? A blushing zebra, and that is the truth. Blaine is the truth.
I want to go back and that is the truth.
I have to go back and that is the truth.
I’ll go crazy if i don’t go back and that is the truth.
I can’t go home again unless i find a stone a rose a door and that is the truth. Choo-choo, and that is the truth.
Choo-choo, choo choo.
Choo-choo, choo-choo, choo-choo.
Choo-choo, Choo-choo, Choo-Choo, Choo-choo.
I am afraid, and that is the truth.
Choo-choo.

The man in black fled across the desert and the gunslinger followed.

P.S.: If you don’t understand this, it’s alright.

(Warning: Long Rant)

Suddenly, my old hobby of reading has come back to me again. Instead of Enid Blyton and JRR Tolkein, it’s now Stephen King. Instead of the Lord of the Rings, it’s now the Dark Tower. (If you are interested, you can find torrents of his books here.)

I used to read a lot during primary school. Somehow, I stopped during Secondary school, reading occasionally like the Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter. Somehow, I’ve began to go to the library to borrow books to read now. I have a lot I want to read, but I just don’t have the time to do so. I read for entertainment sake, who cares about GP and English?

Happy Birthday Zwing =)

And Pi Approximation Day.

Shaken and alone, enwrapt in the darkness, terrified of an ultimate meaning rushing at him, he gathered himself and uttered the final answer on that subject:“NEVER!”

“THEN LET THERE BE LIGHT!”

And therewas light, crashing in on him like a hammer, a great and primordial light.

Rotting Weekend

Books, Movies July 16th, 2006 @ 2127h

I just rotted my weekend away, nicely, with lots of entertainment.

Anyways, finally watched Pirates of the Caribbean and I must say it’s a pretty good movie. Worth all the hype. The actions were good and the storyline was cool. I wonder how the second movie will do, though from what I heard, it isn’t as good.

Finally finished reading The Gunslinger, the first book in the Dark Tower series. The book was pretty good and really got me into this series. If you have time, you should read this. Stephen King is a good writer.

And this day, one year ago…
