2008 hate
2008 was not my favorite year. We fought, like cats and dogs, like Germans and Jews (I think this joke may be inappropriate, but I’m keeping it), like Rufios and Kenobis. But lets focus on the positive.
I saw and met Kids in the Hall in May right after I marothoned Seasons 1-5. They were perfect.
I fled solo to Mexico and met and hung out with these guys (minus Wahbo). It was...

body vs. brain
I think that my body is staging a mutiny against my head for the last 2 weeks of debauchery. I figure if I keep it up I may bring Keith Moon back to life.

Ryan P: What I meant is, how you participate in a salvia filled adventure? Do you smoke salvia ... or.... do you brush your teeth with it?
Amy: You insert salvia through an enema
Ryan P: Wait wait wait. That sounds like some back door shit
Amy: Yeah, I'll show you how to do it.
Ryan P: Oh I'll be looking forward to that moment.
Don't stop
Yesterday while at the mall with Brandon, we were absolutely appalled by the crowds. We should have anticipated it. 3 days before Christmas in the only place to shop in a 40 mile radius. It was so bad that I had to do the stalker parking maneuver. Once someone is spotted exiting the mall, the driver of the vehicle gets to it like the TLC 1994 hit, creeping slowly behind the shopper as they walk...

The sun doesn’t go down. It’s just an illusion caused by the world spinning round.
mobile

I’ve got to say. Yet another flawless visit with AJ and Magnus. They came up from KY on Friday and we painted the bland grey of Cleveland all sorts of colors. There trip really made me, well to be honest, not hate Cleveland as much. I really enjoyed showing them some sites. The rock hall was fantastic, although after watching Song Remains the Same the night before, we were hoping to see...

WatchThis has been helpful in my pursuit. BBC is wonderful:
In this three-part documentary series, Professor Jim Al-Khalili tells the story of one of the greatest scientific discoveries ever: that the material world is made up of atoms. Part 1. THE CLASH OF THE TITANS Professor Al-Khalili takes us from the discovery of the atom to the development of quantum mechanics
trying to understand quantum mechanics
I have been in pursuit of expanding my horizons scientifically. The small things I have started out with, I have comprehended and moved on to something bigger…and now I am stuck. Quantum. Quantum jumps, Quantum Physics, Quantum mechanics, Quantum leap. Everything I read seems to get tangled in my mind, and I read the sentences 5 or 6 times. But I determined to understand the world in...
Letter by Leonard Cohen
How you murdered your family means nothing to me as your mouth moves across my body An I know your dreams of crumbling cities and galloping horses of the sun coming too close and the night never ending but these mean nothing to me beside your body I know that outside a war is raging that you issue orders that babies are smothered and generals beheaded but blood means nothing to me it does not...
