ponderiferous musings

what makes the reality of a dream different than the reality of being awake? both take place in our minds. they involve color, sights, sometimes smells, even a sense of touch, and they can invoke emotions that last far longer than the moment that caused them.what is the difference between the areas of the brain that are active during dreaming and those that are active while awake? is there

the dividing of the world, or ramblings

2006-09-12T19:24:00.000-05:00

when i was younger the only thing that divided people, in my innocent view, was whether you were a boy or a girl. now, we have lowered the importance of gender but we have now created a larger division in this world. Right-wing conservative neo-republican christians and everyone else. check out Dan's blog and then you'll understand why i see this division stronger than ever before, why i'm

military service... and the lies therein

2006-08-08T21:36:00.000-05:00

why does the military lie to us? i'm not talking about "top secret" missions or what is really going on in the middle east. i'm talking about the comercials on television that try and entice people to sign up. they say that you'll be training near home show images of what i'm assuming are actors portraying the men and women that have signed up all smiling and happy and helping their community.

so i ordered this new "toy" a while ago and it finally came in the mail. it is called a stikfas. they are a posable figure you assemble yourself check them out when you get a chance. they provide numerous picture taking opportunities and good use of the imagination for sure. check them out like i said here at---------> http://www.stikfas.com/ <-------------and no i'm not getting paid for this

tho it may be full of holes when it comes to the timing but i had this idea the other night after work... Organicly stored data: Storage of digital data in organic material. Shaping a program to esentially look like the apropriate molocules. Each “step” in the double helix of a strand of

i lived in colorado for a few years. it was, as that one book says, the best of times and the worst of times. Through all of it there was a girl who was always there for me no matter what. when i had no where to go she helped me find somewhere to sleep. when i had no food she litterally made me go to her house with her and eat the food her mom made. when a girl i thought was one of the

5:15 am after a long, hard, night of work... mostly putting up with bullsh*t

2006-07-14T05:21:00.000-05:00

it's scary how the real world is now looking and feeling like a movie. everything has become larger than it used to be and that's funny because through the years most things have gotten smaller. my list of important things for instance, i'm boiling it down to the all important ones. back to the original point...it could also be said how sad it is that life has become almost unbelievable at

mental awareness

don't panic. this is the best advice i have ever seen in print or on screen. don't panic. it fits in every situation. don't panic. calm and rationally input what is happening. don't panic. make a decision based as much in logic as emotion, with regards to past experiences. don't... panic. rationalize decision . don't... p...panic. continue to rationalize decision. don't fucking panic. say fuck

25

2006-06-13T04:19:00.000-05:00

i was going to say i "turned"25 but it seems more apropriate to say i survived to the 25th year of life since my birth. sorry about that momentary sidetrack. anyway. i did turn 25on sunday. had a huge bonfire saturday night and a not so cool night at work friday. Friday:sat in a van for 2 hours... doesn't sound bad i know... almost made it to overtime but got sent home just at the cutoff time

bad move

i recently found an old disc for mandriva linux. here's a quick lesson for all, NEVER mess around with an install disc for a new operating system at 5am when you're really tired. i wound up formating my hard drive, losing around 35GIGABYTES worth of data that i had accumulated over the years and now have a computer i don't know how to work. i have found many of the programs i used with windows

i frequetly check the vg cats website. it's one of the funniest online comics i've ever read. here's a link to one that had me nearly falling out of my chair laughing. consider the theme to be "revisiting childhood". enjoy!

further response to "Microsoft Help in China"

2006-04-21T03:51:00.000-05:00

this is a continuation of my comment on my friend shem's blog blackbox. i first noticed the depth of china's control with the lack of copyrights. (i may be totally off on this but just bear with me. this might be good...) by not allowing individuals to apply, obtain, or have any sort of ownership of their creative ideas/products they almost eliminate any one niche in the market from controling

Judas Framed!?

2006-04-13T15:00:00.000-05:00

recently i learned of a story about "the gospel of judas". very facinating. NPR this is a link to the story. i tried shape my thought's into an understandable flow of words... but the only shape i came up with was writer's block. so check out the link and maybe one of the comments will spark insperation.

god?

2006-04-06T07:52:00.000-05:00

i listen to lots of public radio, and in doing so i hear a lot of political topics. also i have paid close attention to the amount of religous influence in the federal government. i beleive i may of come up with a reason for mr. bush's confusion with "god". i think that if there is a christian god, it most likely is not a republican. it probably doesn't have a political party. i think

about this time change thing. what's the need anymore. it was started so that farmers would have "more time" to farm their fields. we have this invention called a h-e-a-d-l-i-g-h-t now. it's an amazing thing! it lights up an area in front of us so that we can see in the dark. what a concept. perhaps we should think about doing away with this idea of "daylight savings time" once and for

laws of man

2006-04-02T22:54:00.000-05:00

this is in reference to a friends blog http://www.blackboxentries.blogspot.com/.why do we the "law"? fear of the consequences. that's all i can think of. obviously some laws are there to represent ideas that we all share. killing is bad. wait... killing isn't bad. we send off troops to other countries to kill and give them medals to do so. religion caused more deaths since it's mass

this is the start of my blog. it was started with a recomendation from a friend. out drinking and discusing this, that, and many other things when i was told i should write this stuff down in a blog so here we are. check back often, just not too often. i do have other things to do. not that writing a blog and reading blogs isn't something to do it's just that... uh... lost my train of
