I watched the last mad mad House today if you missed the series I recommend it as far as opium for the masses goes this was good opium it makes you think and if you are open enough to listen you may learn something who knows. after the last episode I felt a great urge to post to the scifi board in case the decide it shouldn't be posted here it is:

I have to say first that I Loved the series!
I have lurked on the message boards. The whole idea resounds with me personally. I have explored myself for all of my years and have lived many different religons the only way to find out about yourself is to test yourself. I pray my own way now I have my own belief structure and it is an amalgum of wicca islam buddism christianity santaria and various forms of tribalism. Also I have always felt that people like don(probably my personal favorite alt) have been the most accepting of these form of beliefs and often open enough to see what is going on right in front of them. Additonally I want others to experience these kinds of things espechally people who shun or condem others or stay opinonated enough to not open up. In the end I felt the final decision was great and in a way I also felt it was decided not by the alts but was an expression of somthing mutch larger. Now that I have said how great everything was I have to voice my one complaint and hope that it might help someone somewhere. I know nothing but it is my opinion that the alts need to take their own advice. Don't let the blinders of your personal belief get in the way of opening up to the experience and learning from it. An example would be the reason I decided to post this: Fiona. Watch the series again please and relize the amount of time Fiona talks over people demanding attention and cutting them off telling them that she let them speak and it's her time. when Fiona was it there time to speak? Did you learn anything from your discussion in the last episode with art? You dear are acting like the boss of the house I think we both know tres faciunt collegium, karma, the golden rule exc. Then again I know editing can change completly how a person is percieved.

New findings by Dr. Peter Gordon, a bio-behavioral scientist at Teachers College, Columbia University, strongly support the theory that language can influence the nature and content of thought. If you think a rose by any other name would smell as sweet then read on...

Recently waiting for a bus another bus passed by me with basically this add on the side. Now I don't like made for TV movies(especially when they have an after school special feel) and I don't like FX and I don't really like Jamie Foxx but I was intrigued by the tag-line "Gangster Death Row inmate Nobel Peace Prize Nominee" and the word biographic. What alternate universe must I be living in where CNN of all people has reported that the founder of the crypts has been nominated for a nobel peace prize for his books for children and I Totally miss it. The movie is ok not great in my opinion but watch-able. If you know nothing about Stan 'Tookie' Williams read his story I guarantee that it will make you think. In my opinion it doesn't matter if you think he's a piece of shit or worthy of release and praise though I lean toward the latter. I want to hear the arguments saying that Tookie should never have been published from prison. In my perfect world If someone no matter what atrocities they have fathered affects the world in such a positive manner they deserve a chance to get what they have done weighed again. You have made mistakes you may even have lived your mistakes for a while like he did but once you recognized them and repented you where forgiven in one way or another. The difference I see here can be named as four victims: Albert Owens, a 7-Eleven clerk; Yen-I Yang, a Taiwanese motel owner; and Mr. Yang's wife and daughter. These things will and can never be replaced. Sure you can argue acceptable losses for instance if Tukkie's books saved the lives of even a hundred children that otherwise would have been lost to gang violence don't those hundred people make up for the lives of four? I don't know. it's hard to quantify the value of a human being and I don't think I'll try because doing just that seems to lead many people to bigotry. in a way quantifying the value of life is what has caused bigotry and the most death ever. Statistically the bloodiest book(the book that has caused the most death) is the bible. Due to it's powerful nature people continue to kill segregate and judge in the name of god. I'm sure you've heard the saying "Kill Them All, Let God Sort Them Out" now stop and think about that a second who is wrong here let us assume that two innocent good people with a misunderstanding are put in front of each-other and one kills the other citing the idea let god sort him out. the man who killed has shed blood on the land and broken a direct commandment Thou Shalt Not Kill nowhere in the bible does god add the clause unless it is in my name. So why do people think that this is a legitimate process of thought why do so many people know the saying?

finally read what I was really afraid of reading all this time :

" Turns out the Mirror Door/Firewire 800 model G4's that cannot boot into OS9, cannot actually boot from a factory Jaguar CD either! It would only boot with the DVD that came with the computer. I thought I would be crafty and swap the hard drive out with a brand new MDD model I just got in. (DUAL 1.25mhz). Made things even worse then, the display went wacky!

AppleCare Tech support told me that the my Firewire800/MDD machine would ONLY work with the hard drive that came with it. "What happens if that hard goes out?", I asked. "we replace it!", was the tech's answer. "What if I want to put a bigger drive in, replacing the original drive?", I asked. "Can't do it", was his answer.

I just don't feel good about or like today. I figure it's just an emotional problem cause I really have no reason to be especially down. just kinda feel emotionally crappy. oh well. tomarrow is another day. guess I'll go partake of the opiate of the masses. it is strange however that I am apathetic even toward my apathy today.

I just finished watching Regeneration (1997) and realizing that it is one of the many movies that make you think I thought i'd write some of my thoughts down briefly. this isn't a review and doesn't contain any answers just ideas.

life is war.

I was drawn to think about some ideas surrounding a line by one of the characters Sarah(played by Tanya Allen) she says to Billy Prior(Jonny Lee Miller) "this is just another kind of wound" in reference to his war induced emotional trauma. I have personally known people who where wounded in this way but never one wounded by war.

I just wanted to note that I think it sucks ass that some companies require that their employees show up at work to get their schedules if you call it should not be against company policy for your managers to give you your schedule. I don't personally have to deal with this but if I did I would complain about it allot. I don't drive and spending money to get to work on a day I had off just to get a piece of paper that tells me when i have to come back to work again seems ludicrous. this is in my opinion just another example of stupidity in the corporate world please someone explain how this be

May I someday forgive myself for what I am about to do.

This is a web-log entry. I am blogging. I am a blogger. Here is a
blog I wrote. kann i für das Blogging verdammt werden. God it really
doesn't matter how I say it it still sounds dirty. Anyway I figured a
blog along with a little desktop blogging software was going to be the
best way to get myself to post some content(for content breeds content
and i like content). I set up Drupal (working on un branding it to make it match my site) and am using Ecto
in case anyone ever cares. All in all the hardest part turned out to be
figuring out how to set up the SQL database without command line access
to my host. But I digress This first post should really be about
warning people :
