Some say the phenomenon has something to do with a DNA time code embedded within;
Others say it’s an awakening to our full conscious potential, and that we should take the time to listen to it; 2012ers say it’s got something to do with the end of days;
Buddha would say that its a symbol of ‘oneness’ we are all one, singular, and collectively;
Most people say it means eleven minutes past the eleventh hour.
All I know for sure is that I don’t stop seeing the number, its freaking me out. So I finally put it somewhere I can’t see it.
Combination of procrastination, condemnation, and inebriation
Adapted from the original novel ‘Pride & Prejudice’, this is the re-written classic story of love, romance, termoil, Mr Darcy, and those pesky flesh eating zombies.
I came across a great record shop in Crows Nest called ‘Titles’
Inside was the most quirkiest stuff from unique Jazz, and Blues imports, to cult movies, African shirts and clothes, Art books, Tattoo designs just to name a few.
I think the website for it is www.titlespace.com
So anyways I picked up this book for around $50 “Woody Gutherie’s Art Works”
for anyone who knows Woody Gutherie or perhaps his son Arlo, he is mostly known for his protest songs about the American depression, and songs for the workers union.
What I didn’t know was that he was quite the artist, and even had works published in newspapers and such. The works (although mostly scribbled down on a piece of paper) capture a time of hardship and portray woody’s struggle through it all.
“I got these Ideas man….Hats and t-shirts….I dunno, like a- like a big ol’ hat that goes beeuuurrup!…Or I dunno eh-e-e “Talk to the HAND” or “Loser” - Orange County 2002
This is something almost everybody does at some stage in their life, they get an idea for a t-shirt or something, then plan to make a living or at least earn an extra crust from selling them.
My days of that are long gone, however just recently i came up with 2 ideas that I thought would make alright shirt designs.
My first design takes a stab at the population of tobacco smokers (smoking without benafit). The shirt will display either 2 pictures of a guy smoking on the front, or one at the front and one at the back; above the picture it will say “ADDICTED” while the other picture will say “A DICK HEAD”.
My other design is simply ” Amster-DAM!-Thats good” arranged in such a way that it appears somewhat clever and comedic.
If you own any sort of electronic device that emmits some sort of media coverage, you will have heard the shit thats going down in Mumbai, India.
What you may not have heard is that former Neighbours star Brooke Satchwell and her film editor boyfriend, narrowly escaped being one of the statistics in the hotel massacre.
The young Auzzie evaded the terrorists by hiding in a broom cupboard until her senses guided her out, over dead bodies and into the street.
My heart goes out to those still under siege but my hat goes off to brave ol’ brook and her boyfriend David Gross. Good on ya guys.
I came across this weird theory (although not that weird, just a bit hard for humans to comprehend) about a Dinosaur which lived millions of years ago.
Named Stenonychosaurus, this clever little critter had the brain cavity which was twice the size of Human’s. Scientists believe that this dinosaur used problem solving and tactical maneuvers to evade its predators and catch it’s prey. Stenonychosaurus’ also had little dino claws in which the thumb part was near opposable!!!!
We now know that it was our capability to grasp things in our hands (which in turn, lead to tool making) that began our evolution into the creatures we are today. Knowing that, scientists began asking the question: What might these intelligent dinosaurs have evolved into had they not become extinct near the end of the Cretaceous period about 64 million years ago?
Stenonychosaurus proved to be an interesting choice for the experiment because it was one of the largest-brained and therefore presumably one of the most intelligent of all dinosaurs. The result of the experiment was a creature named “dinosauroid.”
The most eery thing I’ve noticed is that throughout various ancient ruins and artifacts and such, representations of reptile-like beings are depicted, either passing on knowledge, eating human sacrifices etc.
Another thing to consider is that a cold blooded, reptillian species as opposed to warm blooded mamalian species, would be much better suited as space travellers.
Reptiles can survive with little to no food for longer periods of time, they can regrow limbs (which they could begin to regrow organs and such for long missions. have backups).
They would be able to stand the deep cold of space as they are cold blooded.
And reptiles seem unaffected by cosmic radiation that is killing human beings by the thousands. Some reptiles can hibernate for months and years at a time without suffering adverse effects.
“The Sauroids would have a 64 million year head start on homo sapiens. They could have built their empires and space craft and disappeared among the stars millions of years before humans ever evolved to walk upon this planet!
Or if the Saurians are not from planet Earth, why not from another where evolution might have followed a similar pattern with similar, if not identical, creatures, including dinosaurs, at about the same cosmic time 50 to 70 million years ago?
While it is fairly certain life does not exist on any other planet of our solar system, we cannot rule out the existence of life on any of the billions of other planets that have revolved about billions of other suns in billions of other universes for billions of years before humankind ever existed.”
Thanks again to C.Nolan for sending this my way. I’m an avid AC/DC fan (minus the mullet and the flanno….well sometimes the flanno) and the new album is no exception. Black Ice delivers everything you’d expect from the Young brothers, that being the same style of music, singing about the same type of stuff: Money, Women, Color TVs, Thunder and Lightning, Rock & Roll etc.
But I mean if you like raw rock with no in depth or emotional meaning, just your average sexual metaphors and references to bad weather, THIS album is for you! 15 tracks of headbanging and air guitar or your car steering wheel.
Anyway, Cas showed me this thing on Microsoft Excell where some poor bastard has taken the time to transcribe the whole video clip “Rock and Roll Train” onto excell…. Enjoy!
I’ve been listening to the Ricky Gervais podcasts on the way to uni each morning, and I cannot stress enough people, how funny it is. Not because of Gervais but because of what he has with him.
For those who don’t know about Karl Pilkington, I think he used to either be Ricky’s radio producer or co-host or something from years ago. The amazing thing is, he still gets around without the label of a ‘mentally disabled man’.
He can only be compared to Fry off futurama, having a different brainwave pattern (if any) compared to the rest of humanity.
Karl speaks about cyclopes as though they’re historically known, documented factual beings.
He has this fascination with the smallest things of nature (as I do) but never bothers to understand it, rather compare it to his own thoughts. Eg “saw some Ducks hangin about a frozen pond….They looked worried. I wonder how long a Duck’s memory is, weather they know whats goin on with the lake or weather theyre freakin out about it.”
To all those who haven’t heard at least one of the podcasts done by Gervais, Pilkington, and Steve Merchant, you probably don’t see alot of funny things in life. Karl breaks all the rules without even realising.
Another example in reference to a docco about autism:
“there was this guy and he remembered EVERYTHING about East Enders, from the day he started to watch….Thats not really a sickness is it, more like a super power…..I wouldn’t put him infront of East Enders though, he’s wasting his powers in’he….I would’ve given him an encyclopedia and said ‘he’yar get stuck into that’…..I mean there is that bit where they can’t control emotions but they can just soak up information”
This video flipped me out when i saw it.
I’m trying to pick a nice enough reptile to have as a pet….. I don’t think it’ll be this guy.
These lizards have a tough scaly skin to protect themselves from ants, while they graze on a diet of ants.
If a larger predator comes along and has a go…..The Lizard literally shoots blood at it, by filling up a blood vessel, increasing the pressure until *KABOOM*
During one of my many explorations for answers and such, I came across this interesting piece on Alien Technology. “What a load of bull” you say? That is the reaction of most people on this Earth. They are happy enough to believe what their governments give them. I on the otherhand, tend to get a little suss when someone says something and someone else says something else.
Paranoia!?
You can either believe what people say or go looking for your own truths. After all, when you bite the dust, nobody knows whats next.
