There is no doubt that we are living in an extraordinarily fucked up world. We have global warming, corrupt governments, a culture growing out of reality television and Splenda seems like a good idea to a lot of people.
Religion is the opiate of the masses.
Television is the opiate of the masses.
Opium is the opiate of the masses.
The three previous statements can all be proven as true through logical argument, but what is it really that is impacting our world into a false sense of happiness?
I have no idea.
Something I have always wanted was a child. As I meet children, as I get opportunities to teach them something about the world I have a strong urge to make one of my own. I am jealous of members of my family that have children, I am envious of their opportunity to shape a mind... to clone a lasting copy of themselves to live on in this world. Then reality settles in.
Is this the world that an innocent child deserves?
People smoke despite a clear label on the package that the product will kill them.
Priests diddle children.
Amid a clear global change, we don''t change our ways.
Any idiot can have a child when it takes months if not years for someone to adopt someone in need.
I was fortunate enough to have amazing parents. Two people that allowed me to develop into the person I am today, they were and are considered by their peers as a strange anomaly, they are also envied by these same people for the friendship they have with their three sons. When they could have molded us into anything they wanted, champion golfers ( in the way of Earl Woods ) or subjected us to fame on television ( we were gorgeous children ), they instead offered us everything that this world had to offer. Exposed to every religion, every bit of knowledge in the world available ... they let us grow into the men we are today.
I am a colossal fuck up... when compared to my brothers. I'm the explorer, never content. While my younger brothers take on more noble roles in the world I sit around and write hoping to eventually reach a reasonable conclusion that will convince you the reader to not have children.
Why?
In a world beyond repair... do you feel capable of teaching someone enough that they can fix your mistakes?
There is some music, some pictures and maybe a video I haven't decided.
I present to you...
Today's Time Wasters!!!
Now a video, then back to the funny pictures.
These two guys have some of the funniest shit on the internet in my professional opinion.I urge you to explore their library of humor and be sure to check out High Stakes Poker. Me and my silly little blog will be here waiting for you when you get back. We miss you already. Sigh.
This is in some ways much more entertaining. I suppose unless the highlight of your day is thinking to yourself "What is wrong with this guy." Then this is all probably a great big let down.
Well either way I am glad that you stopped by.I hopefully will have some dream tonight and a great enlightening. Maybe write something funny about Rasputin and Gandhi having a lunch of Panini's during the great plague...anything can happen.
So long.
I love that you came back to me...it makes me feel good deep down inside where I am soft like a woman... in the place where I hide my dreams and emotions and love of My Little Pony.
I have been tirelessly searching the internet for things either thought inspiring or really damn funny. I have found neither. I have made a number of redundant discoveries about the internet however and I will list them in no particular order.
1. Stumble Upon will eventually lead you to a cute cat picture.
These seem to have no end to their supply. I personally do not find them cute, amusing sometimes I am not even sure it is a cat.
I did in fact find myself thinking a little bit about joining the evolution vs. creation argument, but I think it's just a silly fight to get into... the answer is pretty obvious don't you think...
I have also considered giving my own speech on God and Religion, but while wandering the internet I took a few tests, and discovered I don't know a thing about anything.
In short I wasted a lot of time today, time I could have spent trying to remember the specifics of the dream that I had last night, the one that woke me up with the only thought that it was the greatest premise for a story ever... and it meant a solid break from my writers block.
Nope, what I have to show for my searching for inspiration is THIS.
Now if you were a little put off when you found out that you are not quite as untouchable as you thought you were in your thought on God, you could always take the "How many five year olds could you take in a fight test.", although that one didn't make me feel any better about myself. I don't think it would have made a difference whether it was a lot or a little. It just felt wrong to take that test. If I want to know how many five year olds I can fight I will go to the playground with a chip on my shoulder and some nasty things to say about Dora the Explorer.

~sorry just practicing.
If you are looking for discovery or enlightenment, do not go to the internet. Not only will you find cats, games and the strange, but eventually anything you put into a search engine ( any search engine ) will lead to porn.
This has been your guide to wasting time, congratulations you just passed level one by reading this on the internet...
Have a great weekend.
