How Many Flatlines Can One Person Have (Even Kanyon had a Limit)?

I thought the blog's title is witty, but still not as effective as Kiefer Sutherland's "Today is a good day to die" quote from "Flatliners."

The query that serves as a title may not be totally accurate to my state of mind. Right now, I am just having difficulty stringing amusing or investigative thoughts together. Stringing my rants might not be the issue, just not writing them down the night off is what I should be doing. It's just such a pain in the ass to transcribe it later on. This inspires me to just bring in my old HGS journals from 2010 to the hotel just to camouflage my constant sense of despair.

At least I know my wondering creativity is still there. Coming up with the title made me think about why wasn't Sutherland cast as Batman in "Batman Forever." He reportedly turned down the role in 1989, but that was Tim Burton. Sutherland is responsible for Joel Schumacher's most memorable films ("The Lost Boys," "Flatliners," "A Time to Kill," "Phone Booth"). The voice would kill any thought of having the ridiculously gruff "My parents are dead voice!" that "The Dark Knight Trilogy" presented.

It could be said that he grounded the ridiculous concepts all of the films in which he collaborated with Schumacher. You would have at least gotten the chemistry between him and Tommy Lee Jones. If Donald Sutherland and Jones got along of "Space Cowboys," it allows me to suggest that the two could deal with each other based on heredity.

Of course I pluralized flatlines. I hate to say it, but I have to get out of Peoria, but with my finances, is that even possible. My collegiate aspirations maybe for not (beep...beep...beep...beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep) if I cannot manage $900 a month (just placed a price tag on myself)? It's hell trying to find another job down here, how am I suppose to do it elsewhere?

Thinking about heart issues, I'm actually dealing with consistent heart burn. It probably isn't my diet (salads still be damned). The burn is just appropriate when I've been burning the wick at both end in the name of finding some kind of feminine connection. A lot of friend zone invite, but I would rather be General Zod. Perhaps it was the wrong time to start rewatching "Boardwalk Empire." Oh how I hope I'm not the atheist equivalent to Michael Shannon on that show.

Suppose I could end this moment of "Dog Biscuit Poetry" on that. We went from Nelson Wright to Nelson Van Alden. Still, I'd liked to have ended it on Nelson Muntz. That way, my observations would get a "hah hah!"
