Here's an interesting question for you:
What do chickens think we taste like?
Huh. I don't think chickens have ever tasted humans, so that rules out them thinking we taste like humans.
Are chickens vegetarians? I wonder if they think we taste like seeds. Do they even think? Are they idiotic or is their intelligence beyond our comprehension?
Are they SO smart that we think they are stupid but in actuality they are smarter than us and therefore we are the stupid ones?
This question could quite possibly alter the whole universe...
My brain hurts now.

Okay, so this was me at approximately 1:27pm on thursday. Guess why?
Have you guessed yet?
How about now?
Okay, I'll just tell you then.
IT'S BECAUSE... I finished my Math exam.
Woo for me! -insert smiley emoticon here-
AND I just finished school yesterday.
Hazza!
Here is a summer poem by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE called Shall I compare thee to a summers day?:
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course, untrimmed;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st,
Nor shall death brag thou wand'rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to Time thou grow'st.
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
"Underpants?!? We don't need no stinking underpants!" Well, apparently you need these ones.
This is the best thing ever:
A team of U.S. scientists has designed some new men's briefs that may be comfortable, durable and even stylish but, unlike most underpants, may be able to save lives.
Printed on the waistband and in constant contact with the skin is an electronic biosensor, designed to measure blood pressure, heart rate and other vital signs.
Underpants will save you all. Just sayin'.

God save Hillary Clinton!
As some of you may or may not know, Queen Elizibeth II of England celebrates two birthdays every year in honour of King Edward VII's tradition of wanting a brithday in November (his actually birthday) and another birthday party in the summer season. The queen's actual date of birth is on April 21st, but celebrates it again in June, this time on June 12.
The U.S Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, sent a congratulatory letter to the queen for her 84th birthday.
Clinton's message, sent on behalf of President Barack Obama and the American people, wished the queen well on her 84th birthday and hailed the special relationship between Britain and the U.S.
That "special relationship" has been the subject of debate in Britain, where some politicians feel too much emphasis has been placed on it.
"On this celebratory occasion, we pay tribute to the queen's life and legacy and honour the special relationship between our two nations," Clinton said. The statement noted that "the young princess Elizabeth helped rally her nation in the darkest days of that war, and she has remained a beacon of integrity and resolve ever since."
"The United States has always been grateful for her friendship and example," she said. "Once again, I wish Queen Elizabeth II a very happy birthday and peace and prosperity for the people of the United Kingdom in the year to come."
Only problem, it was a week too soon.
Whoops.

More results of boredom!
So, I have written some more of my story. Here it is:
He walked briskly among the bustle of people until he came to yet another ally, his fourth this evening. He sighed and closed his eyes, turning into a shadow. A shadow that belonged to no one. He crept down the dark, empty ally until he hit a dead end. A dead end, at least, to the average eye. He held up his hands an started to chant an old ode in Latin. After a few verses, the brick wall became a barrier of black steel. The shadow smiled to himself and walked through the side of the building like it was made of air. He appeared in the old library of a cottage just outside of London, a good mile or so probably. He turned back into his human form and opened the mini-fridge, grabbing 2 cokes out of the back. He walked over to the leather sofa and sat down with a dramatic sigh. He popped open a can of coke and drained it in one gulp. He was about to reach for the next one when he heard someone walk into the room.
"And you wonder why you always have to go to the bathroom." He chuckled at his sisters remark in reply along with chucking a pillow at her head. She dodged it easily, as if it were rehearsed.
"Hey! Just an observation Dunc, geez." She was wearing her favourite ninja-patterned pajamas along with her alien house slippers.
"So," She said as she leaned up against the wall. "How come you're back so late, huh? Quot bestia fui vos iuguolo is vesper?" Leave it to his sister to start speaking in a dead language, Duncan thought. "You said you'd be gone an hour! It's been 3 since you called and said you were gonna be a little late! 4 HOURS IS AN EVENING STROLL TO YOU? SERIOUSLY-"
"Okay, okay! I'm sorry. Geez Lizzie, what's with you today? You've been acting so paranoid!" Duncan told his twin sister. They were 17 years old, but they were much more mature. At least, around other people they were.
Elizibeth and Duncan Gray were descendants of an ancient race of supernatural human beings.They were often called Venetor Obscurum, which basically means 'Hunters of Darkness' in Latin, by their people. In ancient times they were also called 'alienus', meaning alien, by mortals who feared them. Their powers gave them the ability to enter and exit the world of shadows at will. They slayed demons and monsters alike in and out of the shadow world and are trained to do so all through their childhood.
Lizzie and Duncan were a lot alike in many ways: They looked identical (being identical twins), they ate their toast the same way, all that. But their personalities were polar opposite. Duncan wore tattered black jeans, lather jackets and t-shirts with breakdancing skeletons on them. He listened to bands like Greenday, Evanescence, Linkin Park, Velvet Revolver; people like that. Lizzie, on the other hand, loved wearing bright coloured dresses, ribbons in her hair and 6 inch heels. They both had dark blond hair and olive toned skin. Their eyes were as black as a nightmare except, however, when they lied. Whenever they told a lie their eyes would flash a brilliant but unnatural electric blue. It wasn't unusual for their kind though. Every human member of the shadow world had a peculiar trait, one that was usually visible to the human eye.
For instance, on a trip to France, Lizzie bumped into another human-shadow person named Heather. Whenever she got angry her hair would burst into flames (not leaving any damage to it) and would cause any one within 1 foot of her to back away at least a metre. It was definitly odd but it did make for a good offensive advantage.
"Well," Duncan stood up and stretched his arms. "I'm going to bed Liz. Bonus nox noctis." He ruffled his sisters hair as he walked by and out the door. Lizzie sighed, turned off the light and went to her bedroom.

Billy v.s Stevey-The Last Crusade
At last. Bill Gates is conquered.
APPLE DETHRONES MICROSOFT AS TOP US TECH COMPANY!
As of Wednesday, Microsoft was officially second.
Microsoft shares shed 4.07 percent on Wednesday to close at 25.01 dollars, dropping its market capitalization -- the number of shares outstanding multiplied by the stock price -- to 219.18 billion dollars.
Apple shares lost 0.45 percent meanwhile to close at 244.05 dollars, giving the company a market value of 222.07 billion dollars.
The only US company with a larger market capitalization than the Cupertino, California-based Apple is ExxonMobil at 278.64 billion dollars.
Apple stock has risen steadily over the past few years as chief executive Steve Jobs, who returned to Apple in 1997, piloted the release of a string of hit products starting with the iPod in 2001, following by the iPhone in 2007 and the iPad this year.
Huh. I guess we all had to expect it.

Cherry Ketchup-A Revolutionary Discovery
Want something new to put on your boring ol' burger?
TRY CHERRY KETCHUP! Here's a recipe:
Cherry Ketchup: If you think that ketchup is made only from tomatoes, think again! Tart fruit can be simmered into delicious lightly spiced ketchup that makes a fine condiment for just about any poultry or meat.
1 1/3 cups
Active Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
1 10-ounce package (2 cups) frozen pitted cherries (not in syrup)
1/2 cup dried cherries
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/3 cup water
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Preparation
Combine pitted cherries, dried cherries, vinegar, water, garlic, sugar, ginger, allspice, cardamom, cinnamon and cayenne in a large saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the fruit is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool slightly. Transfer to a blender. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel. Holding lid securely in place, blend until smooth. (Use caution when blending hot liquids.) Transfer the ketchup to a small bowl.
There we go! Now, keep in mind I haven't actually tried it yet so if it tastes revolting don't blame me.
