so nasty here today... I don't think the term 'Nazi' is fitting, but poor English usage should be curtailed a bit, otherwise we'll be grunting before long. my favorite, seen on Broadway near Larch in Vancouver BC, on a restaurant sign: "We do catering."
bound to get hated for saying this, but I can't understand how a society can make peace with this behavior, when there are starving people in their own country, and elsewhere (all news sources refer to this stuff at sometime or another, as a 'light-sided' story). it's preposterous. and sick. and I've seen it on the sports channels, like it were a sport or something. what's next, a sh*tting contest?
in 2002 'a guy I know' used a sampled clip from Blade2 (that was found online BEFORE the film was released) - he inserted it into his film 'The Infringement' (which was already 95% finished and featured the same actor that was sampled from Blade2) and then he released his film online, the same day that Blade2 was released in cinemas, in a statement against DRM, DMCA, etc. (no purchase required, and no affect on the original film's release) is it art or is he a vandal? http://www.vimeo.com/2170544
it's not a phobia - it's a conscious decision to avoid the inane and hold socio-cultural disdain for the sheeple. I give twitter less than a year from today. Take that, you social networking Twits!
"Why water would act this way was a surprise" I live in the North Atlantic sea, in Newfoundland, and I have had the opportunity over the past few years to work on a film/art/new media project (in development) which demands that the characters, especially mine, spend a lot of time on the very edge of the sea - often on rocky over hangs and rough ledges during moderately high seas (just so you know, I wouldn't go out if it weren't safe-ish, but it's not really nasty - you gotta have some crashing waves to get a good shot). anyway, there have been numerous times wherein I 'felt' the presence of the sea having more than a passive inorganic existence. I 'felt' like it was interested in getting me, I anticipated it's 'motives' to change its swelling and lashing out, and as I avoided getting pulled in while getting close to the edge, I felt it swelling up on the other side of me - it wasn't random waves, I was 'being pursued' - and around here, several people a year go a little too close, and wash up about 3 weeks later... and I am neither a kook nor do I believe that I've been abducted by aliens. Water is alive, just on a different conceptual level than we grasp. I believe its pissed at us humans - as we are constantly attacking it. What about that Texas-sized island of plastic in the middle of the Pacific?! oh, and for the record, we're missing a huge opportunity in not harvesting the glacier ice floating by here as the pole melts. Free 10000 year old pristine water, melting into the Gulf stream. Mmm - I'm goig to go get some and toss it in my drink.
this is a rip off of an antique helmet that was given as a gift - I saw the picture recently, but can't remember the giver nor the recipient - goggles, hooked nose, WAY ahead of its time... anyone ?

you have to sort of loosen your rational thinking
