My home is at the foot of the hill, always in the shadow of the city above. Jealously looking at the skyline that the city has become, I see it glow, even in the darkness that everyone else is in. Secluded, it is moral in all things and free from the filth beneath them. I want to tear it down. Tear down the city on the hill, with the green atmosphere intertwined with each district and designed with space to spare. Topple their buildings built from concrete, stone, and marble, sitting high in the landscape reflecting the sunshine back to the sky as if it were made from crystal and silver. Reflecting the sunshine back to the sky as if they didn�t need the light to begin with. I want the sun to blind them and then to leave them alone in the dark. I want their mountain to collapse from underneath their pride, leaving them in a hole filled with a broken past and in the shadow of their fallen fame. I want their hope broken and fill them with thoughts of sadness. I don�t want to kill them. I want to drive them to suicide.

Now Playing: Agalloch - In the Shadow of our Pale CompanionThe breeze seemed colder the day that a life was lost. Cold as her skin as she brushed against me and cold as her breath as she whispered into my ear. It blew down from the clouds of gray, to the blood stained soil, and out to the roots of the tree where I led her. Blowing quickly into my bones and instead of chilling from the surface to the core, I froze from the inside out. This sensation causes a hollow feeling which in turn results in loneliness.
Was it a mistake to take her here? To lead her here. No, to trick her here. To use something she loved as bait to get her here. She loved twisted beauty despite her disgust of all things good. Despite her disgust of all things good for her. It was a mistake taking her here. I led her here, posing as something she loved so that she would come. As we arrived, the wind grew cold and touched my bones, but I didn�t care because I followed through.
We stood at the root of the tree. We stood where blood would be shed. We stood, me posed as something she loved, I reached my arm out to her. Shortly after, blood spilled. I reached my arm out to her, touched the back of my hand to her cheek and looked into her eyes. Shortly after, blood spilled. I looked into her eyes and she looked into mine. My plan was coming to a close. I looked into her eyes and they revealed coldness. Her eyes revealed hate and she saw through me. She saw my love for her and my desperate trick for her love back. The cold skin of her hand brushed my hand away from her face. She leaned to me and whispered a cold breath of words into my ear, chilling me more than the wind ever could. I sacrificed my love for her by using her love for filth as love for me. The blood was spilt and the blood was lost. I lead her here to trick her heart, but she turned the wheel and spilt my blood. I lead her here to show myself as twisted beauty and beautiful filth, to prove myself as love for her, but she turned the wheel and spilt my blood. I lay beneath the tree, my blood staining the soil beneath, and the cold air blowing down and chilling me from the inside out. The breeze seemed colder the day that a life was lost. Cold as her skin as she brushed against me and cold as her breath as she whispered into my ear.

Now Playing: Nothingface - Hidden HandsGo on, do it. Take a step back, look through the present tense, and recall the past. Now look ahead. Was it there, is it there, will it be there? Liars write the word. Liars take the pedestal. Liars single you out. Chew the thought as they chew you, and you choke on soil. Choke and chew, choke and chew on the thought and on the filth, the filth is the word and their truth is just another lie. Step back, look at the panoramic. Overlapping languages playing in your head, both current and dead, the sacrifice being both animal and man. Skulls versus emblems versus chanting versus praising versus crucifixes versus theory versus gold versus humility versus two thousand versus a billion versus fulfillment versus guilt . Take another step, one more. It�s hard, but one more. Feel the breeze run up you back, chilling your neck, and moving your hair. It�s refreshing and it�s unsettling. As you move your foot back, you feel less, you feel less, you feel less, you feel for ground beneath your foot as you step back, you feel nothing in your heart and you feel no ground beneath your foot. You feel the fall and you feel nothing.

Now Playing: Machine Head - ViolateThe colors are changing again and I can't stop them. Plauge of the wires, these patterns make sense like divinity make sense. They shift on a spinning wheel, from gray to bitter yellow and back again. A hundred Gods fighting to tell you where to turn, they force the wheel to tilt and change direction. Sky blue to earthy brown and back to the familiar gray. Some are longer than others, mostly the dim shades, scattering the bright ones in between. The axle weakens and the wheel tilts further until it breaks. Rolling, the colors are changing faster than they can be anticipated making the wires pulse too frequently not to burst. The duration of the roll forces cracks to form, creating a trail of debris. As peices fall from the wheel, the throbbing subsides. No longer tormented by the shaking wheel, I follow the trail picking up only the colors I desire.

I do not feel it. I felt when I knelt by my bedside with my hands folded and head down or when I stood at the pews staring at the shimmering crystals and gold. I felt as I counted my hailmarys and as read along with the hyms. After the confessions and guilt, walking down the isle toward the sacrifice, I felt the light through the shaded glass. Praying, I felt. I felt shallow. Nothing more than a natural chemical leavener. A reaction in the mind. My subconsience yelling for times lost. Find your way back home.

Now Playing: Lamb of God - HourglassThey have a new alcohol product on the market in the UK. It looks like a large inhaler, but in reality it is a new method to get drunk. You simply pour your alcoholic beverage of choice into the reservoir, and it disperses the alcohol into your mouth in an oxygen mist. Claims from the inventor, Dominic Simler, touts that this new product will result in an alcohol buzz without a hangover and without the calories. False claims. Ethanol is the main poison found in alcohol, which is liquid. Since liquid vaporizes, so does this poison, finding its way to the liver to produce toxic gas just like when drank. Isn't drinking fun? The calorie claim is mostly false, as well. Normal alcohol has seven calories per gram. Inhaled alcohol only has slightly less. Another thing to keep in mind is that when alcohol is drunk, food gets in the way of its absorption, producing a slower entrance into the bloodstream. When it is inhaled, however, it enters directly into the bloodstream. Chances are we won't see this product in the U.S. because legislators are having a hard time accepting it. Good for them. I'll take a glass, thank you.

Now Playing: Murder by Death - Those Who LeftHow did I get out? There was a way in, but not way out. It felt like I was disoriented underwater, not knowing which way was up. The room was a perfect cube. Every flat side stood parallel to its antipode meeting with right angles and sharp points. I floated in the center of the room and as I tried to walk, the room rotated the opposite direction. If I walked forward, the room rotated toward my back. If I turned left, the room turned to my right. A sphere would make sense, but it wasn't. It wasn't a sphere because that would make sense, only it would still confuse. At all times, no matter what area of the cube was to my front and to my back, colors remained at precise spots around my body. Drifting shades of gray floated above my head and a solid patch of burgundy blood red lay just below my feet. The gray above my head faded into a shade of bitter yellow toward my front and turned pale tan to my right. The burgundy red from below changed to a cold, dark blue toward my left. From the harsh blue, the color turned crystal clear behind me. I ran. I fell. As I rolled and tumbled the room violently twisted and turned, denting the precise corners, throwing the angles into imperfect degrees. When I finally stopped rolling, I found myself outside of the cube. I was bruised and broken, but not torn. Looking at the cube, I found it bruised and broken, but not torn.

Now Playing: Murder by Death - I'm Afraid of Who's Afraid of Virginia WolfeI arrived to what I remembered as heaven, only it now consists of a desert under a sun that turns flesh inside out. Insects land on the sensitive skin, laying their eggs in the exposed wounds and feeding on waste left by the citizens of the paradise. Compacted buildings are built from sand moistened by piss and are built up, instead of out, in order to preserve the limited land space occupied by angels with torn wings and battle scars. The scenery is of trees with trunks of iron and branches of barb wire growing from the chests of corpses. Men hang from the trees, by rope or flesh, with their faces pointed down to the ground. A river of vinegar flows through the center of heaven, quenching the thirst of dehydrated animals while crumbled bones of cannibal victims are scattered as homage to their lives sacrificed. Trying to justify these actions of desperation, they consider what their father has always said, "of body as bread and blood as wine." On the peak in the center of paradise, a granite, upside down cross with a throne of bones bound with human hair that turned to rope from the heat of the sun takes the place of the celestial throne that stood after the previous battle of the divine forces. From behind the cross came a graying man with a stained and torn robe, walking barefoot across glowing coals with his shoulders bent down and his head even lower to avoid the disappointed looks of his children. Behind him follows a magnificent angel with long, feathered wings and a cloak made of silk and gold threaded cotton rope. With defining jaw line and extruding cheek bones, small red horns have pierced their way through two points high on his forehead. His sharp eyes look down his slender nose to make contact to each of the angels that once empowered the land. The angel puts his hand on the old man�s shoulder and whispers in his ear. The man joins the citizens of the fallen heaven.

Now Playing: - - - - -Coming out of the fog that I chose as a home, I saw a glistening in the glowing field that encompassed the mist. Steadily I crept toward the object to pick it up, but my hand went straight through it. I took a step back just at the same moment a small child came dancing and laughing from behind me. She was headed right into my legs and when I made the move to catch her she drifted straight through me, grabbing the shining object and dancing away. I raised my hand and called for her to stop, and she instantly dropped to the ground, motionless. Quick to her rescue, I ran to the girl and she aged before my eyes. She changed from the happy child, into a developing adolescence teen, and finally to a naturally beautiful young woman with a defining bone structure. She awoke, smiling, and walked toward me, brushing her fingertips against the back of my hand and kept walking away. Away from the heavenly field that shone so brightly and straight into the dense, dark fog. I chased after her, only to find the fog, my home, impenetrable. Back where the small girl had first fallen, I found the object once more, only the glow had faded to a dull gray. I was able to pick the small, circle pendant up at this point. It simply said, "Isolated Paradise".

Now Playing: Meshuggah - IJia Yihe, a now overweight 23 year old chinese boy, says "It was a matter of fulfilling my every wish . . . It also had a lot to do with KFC and McDonald's." Now that China is developing a modernized culture and the average man in China has a sit down job and has more disposable income and less time, traditional American snacks are finding their way into their streets and supermarkets. One mother warns her daughter to avoid KFC "for the sake of her health." China is still significantly less overweight than America, but with the hydrogenized snack foods coming, they won't be far behind.
Here's a rule of thumb: Don't eat processed food and don't be a glutton. Other than that, eat what you want. In Europe, their diets can consist of 50% fat, but they eat no processed foods and they move a lot. They take their time with their meals.

Mr. Torchia, here, is a personal trainer who has had sex with over forty married women. He claims that he can do this because he has been trained to motivate, encourage, listen, and relieve stress positively. First, how is cheating on your husband a positive outlet for stress, and second, Torchia does nothing more than seduce these women. "I'm also in their heads in other ways. They connect with me emotionally. It's very important for a trainer to be a good listener." He doesn't care about these women's feelings; he just sees a lonely housewife that he can slide her clothes off after he makes her sweat a while. "I'm 47 now, and over the years I've learned to watch out. I realized I couldn't be sleeping with everyone's wife in town." ...... What a sly mother fucker...... It took him 30 years in the business to realize this. These women weren't going to him for his training abilities; it was just word of mouth that he has no morals. The first day that he put an ad in a paper, a woman hired him and answered the door in a negligee. I'm sure that she was looking for his training wit. Damn, I don't see the point in cheating. If you're unhappy, talk to your partner. Be creative. Try to work it out. If that doesn't work, fuck it. Why torture your morals and your spouse by being a slut. Hussies just piss me off... Torchia has written a screenplay about his sleazy adventures, titled The Trainer. Catchy title. I'm sure that we will see it as a made for TV Flop of a movie...

Those poor things don't know what's going on. Some mothers will yell at the kid to get their steps right and the girl will cry because she's confused. If they follow that career, chances are they will develop such diseases just to please managers, since that's all that Hollywood sets out to do... Make eyecandy. Anyway, how in the Hell did Mary-Kate and Ashley become a $300 million franchise? They hardly do any movies and I can't imagine they still have their Full House money. It must just be their clothing line... And why do some guys have a fetish over those girls. Is it the twin thing? Come on, I grew up with them and still think of them as the babies from Full House.

Ozzy and co. are currently assembling an American Idol themed show in support of heavy metal. The winner of this contest will be awarded with a spot on Ozzfest. I sure hope Ozzy doesn't judge, because he has said in the past that he doesn't choose any band that appears on Ozzfest, that it's all up to his son and wife, Jack and Sharon. I predict that if Ozzy chooses the judges, two of them will be Rob Zombie and the singer of Motorhead. I remember MTV attempted a similar show and this band called Strangers with Candy (Now known as Lifer) won... They sucked. I've found that any band that is awarded with instant success like that will, in turn, not be good. It's the heavy metal lifestyle that forms bands into legends.The second topic of the day is back to the ever popular, and ever vulnerable, cacoa tree. A long time threat to the tree is a fungus that causes a disease called "witches broom". It is called that because it causes the trunk to bloom out resembling a broom. Travel between cacoa growing regions has caused it to spread in the past. With any luck, they have learned their lessons from the past and will limit that amount of travel between areas in attempt to end the spread. They have found no way to fight this growing problem yet.

"So?" my new enemy shot back.
"Well, if I'm the planet and the sun is my situation, then the gravity is my esteem. If the gravity dies away, then the sun will grow close enough to burn the house away and continue to burn me."

They have been saying that it is the most flavonoid dense food found so far, even more so than apples, which was previously the highest. Recently a group of leading nuritionists compiled the ten most important foods. Chocolate was listed because of its amount of heart healthy red wine-like flavanoids, antoxins, and also it's overall mood elevating compounds. When you are depressed, a certain chemical is in very low quantity in the brain. This chemical is naturally found in chocolate, including Theobromine, caffine, and THC (which is found in marijuana). Speaking of, Theobromine Cacoa is the botonical name for chocolate, which translates literally from Latin to "Food of the Gods". The list is as follows:
01- Blueberries

Well, Carlos, you're an amazing guitarist and I respect your opinion... and hate to say it but agree with you. The Osbourne family has been on the cover of every magazine in the world and on every television show for all the wrong reasons. I'm a fan of Ozzy's work in Black Sabath and some of his solo work, but the guy needs to cut the shit out of his career. Sure he and his wife, Sharon, are just looking out for their kids financially, and I respect that, but it's, as Carlos stated, corny. It's partially MTV's fault with their tweeny approach to, what they define as, Music Television. I'll fix it all when I'm CEO of all things entertainment. Speaking of, my man Johnny Depp is in the lead to play Ozzy in his autobiography. Sharon Osbourne has said nothing is written in stone as of yet. Depp has played amazing junkies in the past with titles including Blow and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas not to mention he has countless other amazing movies, so I have hope.

If it wasn't for the internet, kids wouldn't have access to all the free porn that they want. We are raising a generation of perverts and I won't stand for it anymore. barrettfike.pt.vu is the only site with child appropriate content that not only entertains the young, but also informs the old. Ban everything except barrettfike...! Wait, now I sound like those damn protest-junkies that piss me off so much... How about this... Let everybody do what they want! Anarc... wait, now I sound they those damn clueless punk kids that piss me off... There has to be a middle ground... Lets try this... Lets inform, but not preach, what is exceptable! Yes! That sounds pretty good. I'll work on it.

Now Playing: Extol - EnthralledToday... Sleepiness takes over. Three bean (or four bean in my case) salad has to be one of the most divine things to grace my face.

Now Playing: Extol - EmbracedI got the other two EXTOLalbums that I needed today; Burial and Mesmerized. I'm happy about that. I got LENGSEL's album Solace today, also. It seems like good stuff, but I havn't listened to it all that much. Both of these bands are Solid State bands. Great label, indeed!

Now Playing: Demon Hunter - Screams of the UndeadI filled over six hundred propane canisters today at work. I think that I've filled more propane tanks than any one single person should in their life. If I had a match, the propane would make pretty lights. Remember, kids, propane smells like rotten eggs and you shouldn't be around it for longer than it takes to cook a small portion of cow, pig, chicken, or anyother dead thing you prefer. Have fun with hazardous gas!

Now Playing: Arcturus - KineticMaybe this will be the site that I'll be motivated to update with my pointless facts.
Here is a rundown of all of the sections:- -Content- In this section you will find random bits of my brain that may fall off into the internet. This is basicly the sections from my own brain.
- -Features - In this section you will find things that I find cool, but I did not think of. There will be sections about individual bands, movies or games.
- -Links - In this section you will find sites that I think are cool, informative, or I am affiliated with.
- -About - In this section you will find tidbits about me.Hopefully I'll come up with more stuff to waste your time with.
