I want to fly away. not be burddened by social dogmas anymore. let me be.
what happened to my ambition? I think I need to recapture something again. maybe getting reintroduced to to my "Buddhist thought of the day" widget might help: While the Tathagata, in his teaching, constantly makes use of conceptions and ideas about them, disciples should keep in mind the unreality of all such conceptions and ideas. They should recall that the Tathagata, in making use of them in explaining the Dharma always uses them in the semblance of a raft that is of use only to cross a river. As the raft is of no further use after the river is crossed, it should be discarded. So these arbitrary conceptions of things and about things should be wholly given up as one attains enlightenment.

If I forgot to mention it before, I'll state it now: while I do have an uncanny knack for fortuitous timings and kismet, I also continue to experience the same polar reaction for it in time.
I can also have the most coincidental bad timing, by just shaves of a second or so. Putting myself in harm's way, or to be misunderstood due to a lack in preparation, the good luck/bad luck in timing may just be that: luck. I need to think ahead more often than just 'sometimes'.

... do you want?
music, film, comedy, sketches, companionship? I just found out about this experiment, though I can't understand its premise, nor how to execute it well enough to find viable: Google Image Swirl: albert einstein

I'm not sure what the purpose of the Image Swirl is, but I did input Franklin the Turtle and it worked.
ps: then I found more about it: Google Image Swirl organizes image search results based on their visual and semantic similarities and presents them in an intuitive exploratory interface. To learn more about this project, see our Google Research blog post. |

yeah, I read the same thing about it, but I didn't understand it in action: does it group colors, backgrounds, facial hair or no facial hair, photographs from sketches or what?
I was thinking something similar to the TinEye app based on first impression of the synopsis, but I don't think it's that at all.

Well, the board just tricked me into revealing my age, if only because I wanted to update my username caption, which before never asked me to submit a "birthday" before (I disrespect birthdays... you only get one, and the rest of your life, you spend all of the days of the year in anticipation of recapturing it? I don't play along).
The problem is, I was not born on "******** 16, 1979", so now I'm able to experience a rejuvenation of age sorts, here on the cyberweb. How old is that? 29 years? The perfect age, I say. (though, whenever I'll need to, I'l have to remeember to pm Cyn or SM70 to place me back into the right decade of introduction to Earth.) + Portrait of a 29 Year Old by narddogg81 PS (I'll also say this: I'm not a woman either, though I have noticed more and more of my recent posts becoming "neat" and "creative", and I'm not saying those are womanly traits, but I've never done well as a neat-and-tidy-kind-of-guy. The French feminine form of my usename, the bunny(fish), the flowers, and the textual intelectual wisdomquotes that inhabit my signature might confuse the unassumed. I'm sorry.)

of Bikini News?
I'm currently listening to podcasts as well, about "sneaker nerds". Probably not to your taste but here is: Pt. I Pt. II something you don't care about: (I'm more than a month behind on my 2008 podcast revival endeavor... I'll need to listen to more than 9 hours of these podcasts a day to get caught up.)
