Sargent D and the Song of the Day

Stormtroopers of Death - "Sargent 'D' and the S.O.D."

Ruthless and vicious he'll stomp on your face
Deadly, malicious, stay out of his space
He'll rip your eyes out, don't look the wrong way
And once you meet him, there's no time to pray
He'll rip your heart out, make you eat your own lips
Then crack your elbows, and crush fingertips
He'll make you wish that you didn't exist,
Cause Sargent "D" is coming, and you're on his list

Don't cut the line, cause he'll cut off your legs
Don't take your time or you'll spend time with the dead
Don't try to trick him, he'll fill you with lead
Don't beg for mercy, he'll piss on your head
He'll kill your sister, then mail back the tits
He'll beat you senseless, then break out the whips
He'll make you wish that you didn't exist,
Cause Sargent "D" is coming, and you're on his list

He'll put gas on your kids, then throw them a match
He'll back the car over grandma, then dissect her cat
With his Stormtroopers of Death, he'll come to your town
Their Uzi's rip through flesh, then it's time to chow down
Their cause is justified, their reason is clear
The word revenge is all that they hear
He'll make you wish that you didn't exist,
Cause Sargent "D" is coming, and you're on his list

Awesome (Hopefully)

I'm pretty sure I just got rid of $100-$150 a month (depending on how long the month is) in bills. Basically, I bought my car back on October 22, after the fuel pump in the Z died, and being too drained of cash from living with Sarah to fix it, and it got towed away, never to be seen again. I miss that car. Anyway, the original pprice of the car was $3000, but after we found out that my band wouldn't loan me anywhere near that, the guy I bought it from dropped it to $2500. So with $1300 from my bank, that goes down to 1200, but since we were originally told the loan would be for $1370, I had to drop another 70 right there, bringing it down to 1130. Ever since then, I've paid the guy fifty bucks every time I've gotten paid, and between the checks for October 21, 2004 and August 25, 2005, that's 23 payments at fifty bucks a pop, totalling $1150, or twenty bucks more than I owed him. Add to that the fact that there might have been a few other $20-ish payments in those first few days that I've forgotten about, and my glorious 1997 Nissan Sentra GXE is not only paid, but anywhere between $20 and $120 OVERpaid. Fuck it, I can live with that. We'll just call it interest. So outside of the 50-ish a month I'm paying the bank, my car is paid for, at least on the seller's end.
But here's where it gets complicated. Several months back, the dude met me at work and told me he was going out of town for a couple weeks, and that I could just leave the bi-weekly fifty with his lawyer every payday. Alright. So a couple weeks pass, and I never hear from the dude again. No phonecalls, no meeting with me at work, no answers when I try to call him, and either he hasn't answered his door or parked his truck where he lives in a long time, or someone else lives in his old apartment. So his whereabouts are a total mystery to me now. I should ask lawyer dude about it. Hmm. Anyway... What's worse is that the last time I saw him, he mentioned something about the cart costing $3000, so he had either forgotten that he dropped the price or was trying to fuck me. I mentioned that he dropped it to 2500, and he said we could figure that out later, and of course, I haven't seenn him since. Overall, though, it's no biggie, since if he does show up wanting another 500 bucks, I have a tag reciept and the bank has a photocopy of the old title saying the price was 2500, so it won't make it to court, and if it does, I'll win. So yeah. One of the two car payments is gone, and I've got an extra hundred to play with every month. Think I might buy some pants.
