whaddup fools,

just about halfway through making some of my famous spaghetti sauce. two more hours and perfection shall be attained......

i was gonna post something this morning, but nothing was on my mind really......nothing is now, come to think of it.

my girlfriend, ferrell, broke her ankle at work yesterday and i'm playing the role of nurse. nurse rachet actually.
i cleaned the house and have been bringing her icepacks every two or three hours or so. i'm not very good at this nurse shit.....oh well, she'd do it for me.

well, i start my community service this week. i don't know what i'll be doing, but i'm sure it won't be too much fun. 140 hours of bullshit, i suppose. hopefully i can knock it out in a couple of months or so, because i can't be cutting into my work too much. they asked me if there would be any problems with my regular job and i said, "i don't know, let me ask. well, they wanted to know if i'd be home in time to watch "The Practice" at 10 and "Jeopardy" at 3."
she said, "I'm sure we can work something out".

"okay then."

i'm off to stephenville tomorrow. hopefully a decent crowd will be there. i believe my little buddy jerry elmore will be going along for the ride. he is my part-time merch guy/driver/accountant/bartender/doctor. he is way underqualified for the position, but i take care of my friends and shit.......hopefully stephenville will spell my name right this time. the last two times there has been some "scott copland' playing the same night i was supposed to be. i can't cope with copland. word...

i got some new sandals a couple of days ago. they're called "Betula's". they are without a doubt the best sandals i've ever owned. i would endorse them. i've already got a commercial in mind. it goes something like this:

"Hi, I'm Scott Copeland. And when i'm not barefooted and drunk as balls on my porch. i'm usually wearing Betula's. know this shit, motherfuckers. they are bad ass fucking sandals and you all better go buy some or you are out of my masterplan of world domination."

scene out.

man, i love cussing. fucking a. i think my favorite cuss word is cocksucker. however, i use motherfucker more often. goddamnit is a good one too. some people think that goddamnit is the worst curse word because it breaks one of the ten commandments. the third, i believe. this has always been kinda weird to me. would we have ever thought to say 'goddamnit' if He hadn't told us not to? i doubt it.....

i'm going to go get my bible...

yeah, i was right. the third commandment.

i thought i'd read you some of my favorite verses out of the Bible for educational purposes.......here are a few:

this is from the New Living Translation, by the way,

okay this is in first Timothy, chapter 2, verses 8-15.

"I want men to pray with holy hands lifted up to God, free from anger and controversy. And i want women to be modest in their appearance. They should wear decent and appropriate clothing and not draw attention to themselves by the way they fix their hair or by wearing gold or pearls or expensive clothes. Women should listen and learn quietly and submissively. I do not let women teach men or have authority over them. let them listen quietly. for God made Adam first, and afterward he made Eve. and it was the woman, not Adam, who was deceived by Satan and sin was the result. But women will be saved through childbearing."

do you hear that Tammy Faye? shut the fuck up.

here's another one of my favs:

Genesis 19 4-5

"as they were preparing to retire for the night, all the men of Sodom, young and old, came from all over the city and surrounded the house. They shouted to Lot, "Where are the men who came to spend the night with you? Bring them out so we can have sex with them."

...remind me not to spend the night over at Lot's house

anyway, that's just a couple. i'm completely fascinated with the bible and i would venture to say that i read it more than most. i do, however, believe it to be written by men and to be read with this in mind at all times.

that's just me, though. call me crazy.

okay, enough of the religion stuff. i can almost feel the uneasiness in most of you now. oh well, you'll get over it or better yet, forgive me.

alright then, i need to go stir my spaghetti sauce....

be somebody,

scott
