Quarters and Seaweed

I have a headache today, not to mention the tight pain wrenching tension spirialing from my neck to my kidney on the entire right side of my body. So maybe I am not exactly in the best of moods at this moment. It will explain my sarcastic cynical tone that I am about to forward in this commentary of my immediate surroundings and experiences of this day.
Sigh. The party jock upstairs neighbor of mine is playing quarters again, albeit not as loudly as usual, my head thanks him for that at least. The ting of quarters and WHOOAOAOAHAHAHAs of missing the liquor filled shot recepticals is really starting to annoy me. Drunken college dudes who have nothing to do at three in the afternoon, other than to annoy me by playing quarters for two hours straight, get on my ever last nerve. So help me if he yacks at two in the morning on the floor that sits on top of my bedroom ceiling one more time.
To drown out this ongoing annoyance of a game that even I have enjoyed drunken participation in many a night, I turn to the sedation of watching television. Nova. Educational, informative, interesting. Further into the program, I realize that the ping of quarters might be a necessary evil for people like jock strap upstairs to survive in a world with such cataclismic...pause...oh frickn' great, the tornado sirens are going off again. Screw it man, if I get sucked up into the sky, I'm not hiding out in the tub anymore. We are all going to die.
Back to Nova. Caulerpa taxifolia, a marine life killing dangerous algea, has been invading the costal waters of the Mediterranian for over a decade. Spreading to coasts around the world at an incredibly rapid rate, it is destroying the ecosystems of costal waters. Now, I am no backpack, sandal wearing enviromentalist by any means, but this problem of taxifolia infestation scares me.
And to top it off...I mean go figure...I should have known... that this killer algea was taken from the wild...harvested by man in labs...genetically mutated...and mass produced for decoration in fish tanks across the globe. A piece of it got into the ocean, and now the coastal regions of the world are in jeapordy. The U.S. has tried desperatly to keep this seaweed like algea from spreading off the coast of California by tarping large areas of growth and washing it with clorine so that it will die.
The questions that arise about genetically tampering with our evironment are worrisome. Should we be altering the genetic structure of living organisms? They do it all the time to food crops like wheat. Whose to say what the consequences will be, but geez, can they lay it on any more thick today.
Ting, hohohohahaha, ting, ting.
Sigh, I wish for inner peace and for this frikin' pain to leave my body.
