All I wanted.. Got spare money?

I was driving yesterday 6 hours straight and then 2 hours more. That makes over 8 hours. What a thing to do, eh?

Anyway, I saw the sun go down perfect.. and when the sun was hiding (obviusly from my wrath), it suddenly got very beautiful. I mean the sky was lit with dark and red and yellow colours... in perfect combination. At that moment I couldn't do anything but stare. No talking, not smoking, just looking at it in awe. I had the window open, and these smells came in, you know the ones you start immidiately associating with something old you can't quite grasp at that second but it makes you feel good and warm inside. Something good happened to what the smell is connected somehow, or it just triggers something inside you.

I noticed few seconds later I was alone in the road, so I was in perfect peace. Then the wilderness took arms, it invaded the roads and sucked the constructions built by man, like asfalt, the lights by the road, the signs by the road. I realized that I was driving in nature, not through the nature. I realized they were here before us. But we spank them. They deserve to be spanked, they got all this **** so long it's our turn for a while and if they can't handle us, then they should die, if that's their statement of what they think of us.

But the scenery was awesome, literally. I was driving into it, it was in front of me, the sky, the trees, everything. I was buzzing, hard. I knew at that moment where I come from (once again reminded), and that this is the only reason I will be sad when I leave this country, and the reason I should come back whenever possible. Nature is great in most places, sky is the same everywhere. But the combination put there, unique in here, was spectacular. Even worth dying for? Absolutely.

All my senses working in maximum, I realized finally what the smell reminded me of......YES.. big mac! I absolutely HAD to have one. It was weird, but that's what I wanted. Too bad there was no mcdonalds to be found on the road I was on, so I had to settle for domestic POS one, and even though it was tasty, it was no big mac I wanted. I didn't smell hamurger, I smelled big mac, period. I haven't had one in .. at least a year now.

So that answers the question set in the topic.

I guess the best I can describe it so you understand is that the scenery was the best the local lands can offer, and for a moment it was perfect like a storm, but in peace. Something everyone has where they come from but in different forms, but it's the perfect setting for them. Well that was what I saw yesterday for me in here.

It's quite weird to feel so small suddenly, next to this big mother earth and it's dirty children like trees and such. Puts you in perspective. Even though I know I'm important as hell, VIP doesn't even suit me I consider it to be second rate categorizing, and I need my own category. But at the moment, you feel mortal, and you know, see, smell and feel something far greater than yourself right in front of you. It could kill you at any moment, or it could give you the perfect day/night. What ever it wants.. and theres' nothing you can do about it, except fear the worst and appreciate the best.

Then you see these green peace hippies, who think they got all the answers. The trees get angry when some stinking no deodorant wearing nature boy straps themselves into them with chains, like ants that sting they feel to the tree. No.. the tree knows its deal. In order for him and his buddies to have new childhood, they need get a trim. And serve mankind at the same time.

It's like a small annoying kid attaching to old man's leg, preventing nurses to give him treatment.. so he dies.. and the kid goes back home, with his other little friends, they high five each other while the world cries... but at the end... they do nothing good, except ego jerk themselves. Since they miss all the natural skills man should be proud of. And oohhh they can't stand big mac, can they.. uuh uuh all the cows?!? HEY we wouldn't HAVE cows unless we ate them.. I didn't see any cows in the wilderness yesterday. Idiots.

*note* should die

Trip, yeah I know.. or maybe the smell kind of reminded me of cheddar you know.. warm, kind of almost melted cheddar.. the smell of that plus little grease makes me think big mac.. ohh and the joy it brings me to feel that buzz, wanting to get big mac.. yeah.. hey I'm against these fast food joints usually, but damn I wanted one and bad.. had there been one on my way, I would have bought 10 big macs, run into a dark corner outside, strip naked and eat them like a maniac, smashing them through my face, mouth open or not.. rub some on my chest... let wolves lick it off, so they get some too.

And then go back to car and cry for what I did and how sick it was. But at the end.. I would know I HAD NO CHOICE!

PH, I feel great man.. If you were here now, I'd buy for lunch and beers afterwards.. I'd tell you all about the nature boys and girls, why commies in general can be executed within the morals of western society, why money is greater than anything else and why Jesus suffered just like Mel Gibson portrayed him suffering. Oh man it would be great!

I hate to break it to you but I very much doubt McDonald's has used real cheese over the last few decades.

They probably use something like 'synthesised lipid-protein matrix'

I don't care, bring it on! HUMAN TEST MACHINE READY! Stuff it in me .. was about to say boys but that would sound .. bad.

I went to this restaurant maybe.. two weeks ago or something, spanish one, got this steak and stuff, oh man it was the greatest thing ever.. it was SO delicious, and it had cheddar melted on it.. first I thought weird.. I think this won't work .. bad idea.. but then I tried it.. oh MAN it was GGGREAT! The cheddar melted into liquid form was SO good.. oh man they knew how to do it. Then again it was expensive dinner so .. but worth it. I might go there again some day when I have money.

But anyway. I want to try sushi.. there's this sushi place not far away from me. Maybe next week? WHO KNOWS!
