Wake up in the morning and I ask myself,
"Is life worth living? Should I blast myself?"
I'm tired of bein' poor and even worse I'm black.
My stomach hurts, so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch.
Cops give a damn about a negro? Pull the trigger, kill a nigga, he's a hero.
Give the crack to the kids who the hell cares? One less hungry mouth on the welfare.
First ship 'em dope & let 'em deal the brothers.
Give 'em guns, step back, and watch 'em kill each other.
"It's time to fight back", that's what Huey said.
2 shots in the dark now Huey's dead.

Just died laughing at this, great one.
 
This thread is half full of win.

My story is much like Guerilla's, except instead of Starcraft I play "Do whatever the wife tells me to" all afternoon. Then sometimes a movie.

Starcraft would be more rewarding, I'm sure, but there are big penalties for forfeiting the game that I play... ;)

Oh yeah, and I don't Skype. I spend that time making an awesome Cappuccino or three.
 
Oh PJ, you know that I fully accept who you are the way you are today, and my feelings won't change for you no matter what lifestyle choices you make...

Natural Light sucks though! All american beer is like making love in a canoe...
 
He was a Dwarf leader, the son of Fundin and elder brother of Dwalin. Balin was among the dwarves who travelled with Bilbo Baggins and Gandalf in the Quest of Erebor, which the plot of The Hobbit centers around.
Balin was part of the company assembled by Thorin Oakenshield to kill the dragon Smaug and retake the mountain kingdom of Erebor. He is the only one explicitly said to have been at the Mountain prior to the coming of the dragon. Curiously, The Hobbit states he was companions with Thorin on the day the dragon came, but according to Appendix A in The Return of the King he was only 7 years old while Thorin was 24.
He was the second dwarf to arrive at Bilbo's house at the beginning of The Hobbit. The one before him was his brother Dwalin. Like his brother, he played a viol.
Among the dwarves in The Hobbit, Balin was the second-eldest Dwarf on the quest (behind Thorin), and so he spoke for the party when they were captured by the Elvenking.
He is described as "always their look-out man": He spots Bilbo approaching the Green Dragon Inn at Bywater, he spots the trolls' fire, and he is the first to spot the Elves in Mirkwood. Naturally he could not notice Bilbo (hidden by wearing the One Ring) as look-out for the company after escaping the goblins in the Misty Mountains. After this bit of trickery, Balin gained respect for Bilbo's abilities. He's the only Dwarf that volunteers to accompany Bilbo down the secret passage to Smaug. Of all the Dwarves in the quest, he is the only one known to have visited Bilbo afterwards at Bag End.
In T.A. 2989 Balin left Erebor and entered Moria with Flói, Óin, Ori, Frár, Lóni, and Náli. He discovered Durin's Axe. He was killed by an Orc archer, from behind a stone, in the Dimrill Dale in 2994.
In The Fellowship of the Ring, the title characters discover Balin's tomb in the Chamber of Mazarbul. Gandalf finds the dwarves' book of records written by Ori, and discovers from it that Balin was killed by Orcs.
Upon Balin's tomb is written in Dwarven Runes: "Balin Fundinul Uzbad Khazad-Dumu". Below it, an inscription in smaller runes of the same type gives the direct translation into English: "Balin, son of Fundin, Lord of Moria".

My life feels like an "everybody loves Raymond" episode except it's not funny. My wife isn't hot, and I don't have a cool job.

Also my fantasy football team is horrible. FUCK YOU CHRIS JOHNSON, cj2k eat a dick.

When I wake up in the morning And the 'larm gives out a warning I don't think I'll ever make it on time... By the time I grab my books, And I give myself a look, I'm at the corner just in time to see the bus fly by.... It's alright ''cause I'm saved by the bell

If the teacher pops a test, I know I'm in a mess, And my dog ate all my homework last night, Ridin' low in my chair, She won't know that I'm there, If I can hand it in tomorrow, it'll be all right! It's alright, ''cause I'm saved by the bell
