Have you ever had someone fail to analyze something in such a meaningful/appropriate way that it made you wonder? An example of this: Everyone has heard a story where an area gets hit by carnage, Destruction, and Mayhem. Eventually people comment about that situation. The standard comment is something in the vicinity of "This is such a terrible thing to have happen..." Someone always drops the ball, though. I always find the guy who says something like "They are just angry because their Fat"when asked to comment on these situations to be interesting. Everyone is thinking "Thats not even close..."

I was watching a TV show the other day. An astrophysicist was hosting the show. I thought "An Astrophysicist? I'll listen to what an Astrophysicist has to say! There is a limit to how much of that kind of resect that a person can have before people see the need to "Humanize" them. If someone wins a Nobel prize people want to create a video with clips of them slipping on banana peels and drawing a blank when someone asks them what the answer to 1+1 is. I guess its all about seeing people in the proper light, right?

Randomness

I was thinking of the "Trip to the cornerstore" experience recently. You are not supposed to stand around for a long time, but it seems that most people who are standing around don't have a bad reason for doing so. It seems like most people who stand around don't want people to know what they are buying/hoping that everyone leaves before they buy anything. There is a guy who is fingering through porn b/c he doesn't want people to know that he is there to buy liquor, there is a guy who is checking out the alcohol b/c he doesn't want people to know that he is there to buy porn. There is some guy who is standing around to give those two guys a hard time... (this is one of my less serious paragraphs)

At some point in the recent past, I was flipping through the channels and saw the Titanic movie from 2006 on the TV guide. I thought it was really interesting that it wasnt DiCaprio/winslett one. Apparently another titanic movie came out right before that one. I guess that sort of thing happens but it struck me as interesting...

Late Nights

I have very erractic sleeping patterns so I end up watching tv at random times of the night. Lately I linger on that show Smart Travel sometime (I think thats the name of the show). There is a lot of content about Villages/towns that are relatively untouched since Medieval Times. It definitely changes what I think about to see 5 Castles from medieval times that still exist on television every day... The only buildings that I ever see that impress me are from 800+ yrs ago. Technology has improved a lot but buildings havent been the same since they stopped using catapults to get workers/builders to the top of buildings...

Video games are interesting today. The graphics are a lot better, but the most interesting thing is how the complexity of the games has improved. I am not sure if its Correct to say that Video games are more "Intelligent," but the if-then of it all is a lot more complex/realistic than it used to be.

Hmmm

Because of a mixture of not being able to find a job despite submitting thousands of applications, not being able to field all of my e-mails b/c of my accounts getting hacked, not having most people's phone numbers b/c of my accounts getting hacked, not getting aqny cooperation fromlaw enforcement, etc, if you want to locate me it will probably have to be under some overpass in the near future...
