6897 -Thursday. K-lunch today.
Random doodle of me plucking the eye stalk out of some alien’s head. (Old Dream, about a year ago)
Speaking of Archives –
1 year ago – monkey-pops/injustice, free movies, more on Ohio case, Nosy coworkers, lovely chat
2 years ago – Peace Corps dream, Conan O’Brien smells bad, palm doodles,
3 years ago – fisher King, Flag treatment, cyborg roaches, bring back art nouveau.
I’ve got the urge to do some silly video-editing/movie making. Maybe next walkabout, I’ll get some good footage to fool with.
Another view of the soul – Egyptian
The ancient Egyptians named at least four components of the soul: the ka was the vital life force, and dwelt within the corpse after death; the ba was the soul proper, and the part that actually went on to the underworld; the khu represented spiritual intelligence, and the ren was one’s name. Two other concepts may have been related to the soul: the sekhem, an embodiment of one’s power, and the khaibit, one’s shadow. It’s definitely the ka that would animate an undead mummy, but khaibit seems like a prime candidate for manipulation by evil necromancy.

6882 – Surrender Now, or prepare to fight!
Good thoughts this morning. High hopes for the future.
My shelves are crowded. Is there ever enough room for books? Do they always breed, and spread out to fill any shelving to contain them?
Sin City preview. Interesting. They got a *lot* of names.
Goodbye Romania – By visiting this gallery, you will destroy it. Each visit will remove one pixel from these photographs.
Dang… spambots again and again. They still haven’t worked out that I screen anony-comments. I always remove them right away, and mark ’em as spam.
It seems LJ isn’t the only victim… Bloggers Declare War on Comment Spam, but Can They Win?
As long as I can filter-preview, I figure I’m good.. it’s a minor issue.
Why is this stuck in my head?
Prepare for trouble!
Make it double!
To protect the world from devastation!
To unite all peoples within our nation!
To denounce the evils of truth and love!
To extend our reach to the stars above!
Jessie! James!
Team Rocket, blast off at the speed of light!
Surrender now, or prepare to fight!
Meowth! That’s right!

The sounds are a real kick back to the old days. To be honest, I don’t think we ever quite played it right back then. We used to associate the “tomb” sound with flatus.
Doo The Dew: The Great Mountain Dew Pitch Black Green Poo Experiment – Mountain Dew Pitch Black contains Blue Dye #1. PoopReport’s resident poop-color expert says that many kinds of blue dye (his experience was with Blue Dye #5 in Kool-Aid Purplesaurus Rex) “combine with bile, and form a brilliant green.”
Hm. Dark purple-black soda pop makes your poo bright green. Innnnteresting.
6811 – Balloons?
Wow… Friday already. this week was nuts. I’m on call much of the weekend, but I managed to hand a good chunk of Sunday off, though 4-7 I have to be on top of things. No major walkabout, it seems. I think I’ll do the Wolfsonian, the week after.
It’s been over a year since the last episode of Skeletor and Gang was made. I’ve always been partial to #14… That’s a pretty good approximation of South Florida nightlife.
I want to be with Mi Hala, holding hands, and sharing her space right now. Best, closest thing is to just join energy across boundless space and time… all hippy-like.
Bro’s case yesterday was just a calendar call. he’s on one hour notice for a hearing that should take place sometime next week. Apparently Andy was there, smelling of beer and looking rough, bro was clean and in a tie.
We’ll see what that week brings. He hasn’t been terribly communicative lately.

Labor day
I’m looking forward to spending some quality time today… so far, so good. It’s going to get better, too, I’m sure.
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang on TV last night.. I haven’t seen it in ages, and forgot how fun it was, though I think Benny Hill was underused.
Cracked 5000 pints in the vampire game. Current rank is “Legendary” (from Count)
Feel free to answer in the comments section if you prefer.
a crate full of sea lions and some hand lotion
Random bit of Curiosity –
I wonder why that never caught on in the states?
The Newest Cereal… Monopoly, Based on the board game. Basically Cinnamon toast crunch with marshmallows. That’s too sickly-sweet even for me.

Sleepy Morning.
Mildly sore throat today, fell asleep without the CPAP on, and as a snoring result, my uvula is a bit swollen. Lovely sleepy time this morn.
I hope that the Mother got to talk with the Brother. I’ll know by this evening.
Happy 227th birthday, USA! Happy Saint Elizabeth of Portugal Day!
I heartily recommend reading the Declaration of Independence. It’s brief, and has a good vibe to it.

I hereby give sweetalyssm rights to my crown of crap… she is mighty.
BAAAHHHH-EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-YAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH / braaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuunnnnnnnn-swarrrrrrrrrtzloooooooaf
also the phrase – “rectal probe antics”
A moment is eternal… for as long as it lasts.
Ahhh… back from getting groceries. Hooray for a bike with a cargo space! I got a good workout, because I wanted to get ice cream home before it’d melt. A grand experiment. Looks good!
Cherry chocolate chip!
I have too many friends that take the wrong things seriously. Like looking for gritty realism in a BEM movie. They should be appreciating the real story in signs, I think, and not yelping about plot holes… I liked the flick, but a few plot inconsistencies, and many of the geeks I know are treating it like it’s coated in Ebola monkey feces. Pooties on them! They don’t get that it’s a framing technique and that the real story is what’s important.
Ah well.
Moment of Zen –
In my young days I never
Tasted sorrow. I wanted
To become a famous poet.
I wanted to get ahead.
So I pretended to be sad.
Now I am old and have known
The depths of every sorrow,
And I am content to loaf
And enjoy the clear autumn.
– Hsin Ch’i Chi
(Translated by Kenneth Rexroth)
Hmmm – “Most L.A. theater productions get a standing ovation. Are we less discerning, more easygoing or just polite?” Most theatre I’ve gone to does this too…I was wondering if it was a politeness thing, too. I personally like to show appreciation to performers, and to respond to them.
Nice night of sleepies.
Newt is smarter than a monkey… he knows that the moon is in the sky, not it’s reflection in a body of water. But he still prefers to drink from the basin where I wash my face and brush my teeth to the water-bowl by his food.
Payday! How wonderful to have my coffers refilled!
a long overdue moment of Zen:
In quiescence I hear the
Cinnamon blossoms fall.
When night comes,
The Spring mountains are silent.
Suddenly the moon appears
From behind the clouds
And startles the young birds;
By the mountain stream they chirp and chirp.– Wang Wei (701-761)
and your moment of poop.
My political compass – (wow.. a few years ago, the eye for an eye question I’d have strongly agreed to, now I disagree strongly.)
Economic Left/Right: -2.62
Authoritarian/Libertarian: -3.18
Well, I fall into the same quadrant as Ghandi, but I’m not as economically communist (state-planned economy isn’t my thing), so I guess that’s not bad. some similar minded authors.
Danny’ll be along in a bit for breakfast, so it’s off to the showers, dear journal.
Oh, man.
what’s with cottonelle “rollwipes?”
pre-wetted toilet paper?
Have you seen the commercials? Wet, rained on tushies? (I don’t know, I think of them covered in feces, being as it’s a tp thing.
ickies. a cross between dry tp and a bidet!
Straight dope on…Toilet flushie-spray
I read somewhere years ago that when you flush the toilet with the lid open, a plume of contaminated water droplets is ejected into the air and lands on everything in the
bathroom, including (yuck) your toothbrush.
Disneyland: The Inside Poop – http://www.mouseplanet.com/potties/
“On the average, each guest visits the restroom three times.” So say the authors of this article at Mouseplanet detailing of the Happiest Potties on Earth, a site that review of all 52 public restrooms in the theme park And they even took pictures. Ewww….
