"OKAY THAT A GOOD ONE,
BUT HERE IS MY REAL STORY. MY CAR WAS GETTING A NEW ENGINE AND IT HAD BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR WEEKS, SO I HAD BEEN BORROWING VARIOUS EXTRA CARS FROM FAMILY AND FRIENDS.WELL I WAS WALKING OUT OF THE GROCERY STORE AND I KINDA FLET LIKE THIS GUY WAS WATCHING ME I JUST KNEW HE WAS A RAPIST-SERIAL KILLER-SEX OFFENDER. SO I TRIED TO HURRY TO MY CAR OF THE DAY ,A BORROWED BLUE GEO PRISM. I QUICKLY GOT IN THREW MY GROCERIES IN THE BACK AND WANTED TO LEAVE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.BUT IT WAS MY FATHERS CAR AND HIS RING LOOKED SOMETHING LIKE A JANITORS AND I HAD A HARD TIME FINDING THE IGNITION KEY.
MEANWHILE THE WOULD BE RAPIST-SERIAL KILLER-SEX OFFENDER WAS WALKING TO MY CAR AND PANICK SANK IN. I LOCKED THE DOOR AND OF COURSE DID WHAT ANYONE ELSE WOULD DO IN THAT SITUATION PUT MY HEAD BETWEEN MY KNEES AND PRAYED HE WOULD GO AWAY. OF COURSE HE DID NOT. AS HE KNOCKED ON THE DOOR OF MY CAR WATCHING ME WITH MY HAND ABOVE MY HEAD STILL TRYING TO FIND THE RIGHT KEY AND MY HEAD BETWEEN MY LEGS, I MUTTERED NERVOUSLY WHAT DO YOU WANT??

HE REPLIED YOU ARE IN MY CAR. NOW WHAT WAS I SUPPOSE TO SAY, EXCUSE ME YOUR NOT A RAPIST-SERIAL KILLER-SEX OFFENDER? THEN HE ASKED IS THERE SOMETHING WRONG. WELL WHAT WAS I SUPPOSE TO SAY? QUICKLY I EXPLAINED I HAD A LOST A CONTACT AND I HAD GOTTON HIS BLUE HONDA WHICH LOOKED NOTHING LIKE MY DADS PRISM MISTAKEN.

SO HE HELPED ME LOAD THE GROCERIES INTO MY DADS CAR AND THEN RETURNED WITH ME TO HIS HONDA AND FELT THE FLOOR FOR A HALF HOUR OR SO FOR MY NON EXISTANT CONTANT. PRETTY NICE FOR A RAPIST-SERIAL KILLER-SEX OFFENDER DRIVING A FORIEGN CAR WOULDN'T YOU SAY?

I think it was said best by one of the greatest prophets of our time; Its only when you've lost everything, that you are truly free to find anything.

Thanks Chuck

Famine isnt unique to humans

All species are subject to it everywhere in the world. When the population of any species outstrips its food resources, that population declines until once again in balance with its resources. Mother Culture says that humans should be exempt fro that process,so when she finds a population that has outstripped its resources, she rushes in food from the outside, thus making it a certainty that there will be even more of them to starve in the next generation. Because the population is never allows to decline to the point at which it can be supported by its own resources, famine becomes a chronic feature of life.

Oh though the saints be praised, this was not a mission for glory, or for the saving of the soul, it was simply a spot on a spiral.

She is convinced that I have lost myself in Asia. I am convinced that she MAYBE right. I dont mind what has been found.

Ok here is a background, somewhere along the way I started receiving these e-mails from this dating service. When you open it, it had about 5-6 photos of women, each with a small profile next to it. I am addicted to reading these profiles. It is simply amazing how people see themselves. It amazing how everyone describes and for all I know possess the exact same qualities as the person in the photo above them on the page. Its not only how they describe themselves, ("nice", "out going", "dendrophiliac"), its not only that. Its how they order the things that describe them, maybe someone will list their religious beliefs, maybe one will throw down her exact dimensions. Which gives way to my point. It is far to easy to sum these people up, or perhaps it’s a generation expat, finally discovering the one dimensional nature of his generation. We are slipping behind the glow of this screen and becoming whoever, whenever and whatever we want by a placement of words. It is the wave of the future, life, natural living life will cohabited the mechanical world. And it will be monumentous. It will make us as humans living Gods. Surpassing our designed life cycle, conquering the depths of space. Almost getting a little Orwell there..oops. It is natural, and it is evolution. But at what cost.
